Zen at the Zoo

Wake up your senses with the wild things and get grounded at your Zoo!

Members $45
Non-members $50

Unwind and recharge with either an hour-long yoga session led by Diana Spiess of Essence Mind Body Studio or an hour-long Pure Barre class led by Ellie Kaufman of Pure Barre Toledo and Perrysburg. Every class is followed by an exclusive Zoo experience! After your practice, refuel with protein-packed bites, energizing refreshments, and—if you're 21 or older—a meditative mimosa to sip and savor.

Make the most of your visit! For morning classes, enjoy a peaceful stroll through the Zoo as the animals begin their day. For afternoon sessions, arrive early to wander through the Zoo and witness them winding down for the evening.

Please be sure to bring your own mat and arrive 10-15 minutes early to allow for time to fill out a waiver. Zoo talk will follow class and last 30 minutes. Yoga and barre are suitable for all skill levels.

Event is rain or shine. Tickets are non-refundable. Valid ID required for guests over the age of 21 who would like to enjoy a mimosa.

Questions? Please call 419-385-5721 ext. 2078.
