Stretch into your week at MU Garden Sanctuary. A 60‑minute vinyasa flow with Lauren Brown every Monday at 9 AM. Make it your Hilo ritual.
The Hook

Ever start your week with birdsong and slow ocean breeze on your skin? That’s the vibe at MU Garden Sanctuary on Monday mornings.
This isn’t a one‑off. It’s your weekly reset—gentle, grounding, and just sweaty enough to feel alive. Come any Monday; your mat will feel like home here.
What to Expect
Under the palms, you’ll roll out your mat as the garden wakes up—fragrant ginger, soft grass, and dappled light. Lauren threads breath to movement, building a steady vinyasa that warms your core, lengthens your hamstrings, and melts the weekend kinks.
Expect mindful sequencing, spacious holds, and that sweet moment in savasana when the wind hushes and everything gets quiet. You’ll leave lighter, calm, and ready for the week.
