Owner Melora Morgan stands at the helm, ready to encourage you to come as you are, get your feet in the sand and relax in some of the most beautiful settings the Lowcountry has to offer. “We have a beautiful community of people who take our classes,” said Morgan. “I always get asked if beginners can come, and the answer is, ‘absolutely.’ Come if you want to do yoga or come if you just want to sit and stretch and watch dolphins or listen to birds. It’s a beautiful space for people. As soon as you walk out to the beach, everything softens — your shoulders, your breath, your energy. Yoga on the beach feels, to me, like a gateway to home, to where we’re supposed to be in our bodies. It brings people peace.” Classes are taught at level one, but Morgan encourages her students to use modifications to make things easier or harder. “Whatever you feel in the moment is right for you, that’s what you should be doing. We’re very open. I don’t like rules, and I don’t like walls. Our classes are truly a free space for you to do what feels right.” They offer weekly classes on the beach. Check their Instagram page for updated schedules, as Mother Nature often forces last minute changes. Children of all ages are welcome to come and participate or simply play in the sand. And for brides-to-be, Serenity Tree Yoga offers special packages to help you and your bridesmaids reset during your bachelorette weekend. WOMEN ON COURSE If golf is more your thing, but you can’t get a reservation for you and your girlfriends at the new Top Golf in North Charleston, the Charleston chapter of Women on Course can also help you improve your game in fun and empowering ways. Women on Course offers golf, travel and networking events for members and non-members. They can create custom golf events and programs for organizations developing their female leaders, too. Jodi Witte, vice president of sales and marketing, said, “we all know how much of business takes place on the course. Women on Course creates an opportunity for women to get out there, get comfortable with the game and network with businesswomen just like them. [It’s] a ton of fun, actually, from the course itself to 19th hole fun in the bar.” The group hosts fashion shows, lunch-and-learns and custom signature events. Witte suggests that if you’re new to the world of golf but want to become a member, to take a 45-minute lesson with a golf pro at one of their events, and Feature A re l ax ing yoga s e s s i on wi t h S e reni t y Tree on Fol l y Beach .
