Take your downward dog to a whole new level with these cannabis-friendly yoga classes.

What do yoga and cannabis have in common? They are common ingredients in the path towards wellness for your mind and body. In the ancient Indian system of medicine known as Ayurveda, marijuana was considered a medicinal herb, with physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits. So it's no surprise that several yoga studios around Denver have embraced the ancient tradition and are offering cannabis-friendly yoga classes. Check out one of these classes to smoke and stretch your way to a healthier state of mind.
