A free yoga event will be held in Harrogate’s Valley Gardens this evening to mark the summer solstice.
Today is the longest day of the year, with the sun not due to set until 9.42pm in Harrogate.
To mark the occasion, Ebru Evrim, who owns a yoga and pilates studio on James Street in Harrogate, will lead people through 108 sun salutations, which are moves to greet the sun.
The event is open to everyone who brings a mat, and people can take part in as much or as little as they like. Instructors will be on hand to show beginners through modified variations.
It is free but pre-booking is required.
The company’s website says there will be “beautiful calming music in a stunning natural, peaceful setting”, adding:
“It is a truly powerful evening of connection – with self, with others, and with nature and the sun.”
