DETROIT - The Detroit Tigers will host a double feature of yoga and baseball at Comerica Park. Yoga day tickets are on sale now and is highlighted by a one-hour yoga class on Saturday, September 15 from 9:00 - 10:00 a.m. and the choice of a game ticket for one game of the Tigers final homestand September 17-23 against the Minnesota Twins (September 17-19) and the Kansas City Royals (September 20-23). Tickets start as low as $18.00.
The class will be taught by a special guest yoga instructor Michael Collins of Blue Yoga in Birmingham, MI. Michael, who is also an ambassador for Lululemon, teaches with a focus on the breath, mind, and body. He believes that if you come to your mat to win, you will lose, but if you come to your mat to practice and learn, you will grow. As Michael continues to deepen his own practice, and further explores a balanced life, non-judgment, and an open heart, he hopes to weave these themes into each of the classes he teaches.
Fans can now purchase the exclusive yoga ticket package that includes a one-hour yoga class in the Comerica Park outfield (weather permitting), a Detroit Tigers branded yoga water bottle, one mezzanine, upper reserve infield, lower baseline box or upper grandstand game ticket for one game September 17-23 and a $2 donation to The Downtown Boxing Gym.
