Yoga Flow at Thrive City Offers a Purposeful Midday Reset

For anyone looking to trade the rush of everyday life for a moment of movement and mindfulness, Thrive City’s Weekly Fitness Classes offer an inviting place to reset. Presented by Kaiser Permanente, the free fall fitness series brings professional instructors to the Bay Area community from September through November, with classes designed to welcome participants at every level of their wellness journey.

One of the featured offerings, Yoga Flow, takes a purposeful approach to the practice, combining foundational yoga movements with sun salutations and techniques intended to refresh the body. Rather than focusing solely on intensity, the class provides an opportunity to reconnect with movement, build familiarity with the basics and leave feeling renewed.

Leading the session is Cecily Guest, a respected Bay Area yoga and fitness instructor with 30 years of experience working with renowned fitness brands and corporate audiences. Guest’s approach to movement is shaped by an unusually broad background that includes dance, Pilates, martial arts, personal training and a wide range of yogic traditions. This will be her third year teaching classes at Thrive City, where she brings an experienced yet accessible presence to the community program.

Guest also teaches at Equinox Fitness and leads her own workshops and yoga retreats throughout California. Her certifications include A.C.E., AFAA, YogaFit, Diablo Yoga Center, SCW Pilates and Reebok Indoor Cycling, reflecting the depth of her experience across multiple forms of fitness and movement.

The open-air Thrive City setting adds another appealing dimension to the experience, offering participants a chance to step outside and make wellness part of their day. Guests should bring a water bottle and yoga mat, while those planning to attend should arrive early because space is limited and available first-come, first-served.

Parking is available seven days a week at the Chase Center Garage at 99 Warriors Way. With no admission fee and an all-levels approach, Yoga Flow provides a welcoming way to stretch, breathe and recharge as part of Thrive City’s fall programming.
