LINCOLN PARK ZOO - There isn't much more of a serene place than the boardwalk at Lincoln Park Zoo--watching waterfowl swim around in the pond, chirping frogs along the shore, and maybe Cafe Brauer for a snack. The new highlight to the zoo though isn't the family of harbor seals or the Moholi bushbaby, it's Jeanne Gang's pavilion where yogis congregate and stretch the world's problems away.

This Saturday at 9AM and Saturday at 10AM there's a free intro class to kick off the season. 50 classes happen June through September each Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. The drop-in rate is $20 per class, or if you're a member of the Lincoln Park Zoo there are special rates.
