Midnight Full Moon Yoga | Soho House Chicago
Sun salutations under a summer full moon. On the Soho House rooftop, BENDER hosts a midnight vinyasa yoga class, set against a backdrop of open sky and city lights. DJ Hummingbird provides deep, nocturnal and atmospheric sound selections; played through "Sound Off" wireless headphones -- which will let you hear the instructor at the perfect level and immerse you in a journey through movement and sound.

SUNSET SESSIONS : Summers 2014 - 2017
Panoramic vistas of orange and magenta… lithe bodies flowing through sun salutations, to lush rhythms spun from the DJ’s fingers. As the blazing ball of sun sets beyond the horizon, shadows grow long and city lights rise…
High above the city clamor, live-DJ yoga turns to dancing with 'connected' company under the night sky.
