Detox to Retox at El Pinto Restaurant to Celebrate National Margarita Day with YogaRitas
Albuquerque, New Mexico (PRWEB) February 18, 2016 -- El Pinto Restaurant in Albuquerque celebrates National Margarita Day with YogaRitas®. This distinct style of yoga allows participants to detox while they retox. Each Sunday participants enjoy a laughter filled yoga flow while having the option to drink a margarita before, during, and after the yoga practice. It is a fantastic way to start Sunday funday. The YogaRita Margarita is low calorie, with fresh squeezed lime, and full of complexity created from a smokey mezcal float.
YogaRitas is lead by El Pinto's YogaRita Guru, Sydney Fontaine Forestal, who mixes yoga, barre, Pilates, and a splash of modern dance to keep participants laughing while their gluteus maximus screams. To keep things fun, a micro mini pig is a regular participant, and there is usually a little to much cowbell keeping rhythm with the music.
"YogaRitas is a distinct fun filled practice, all the while it is serious in its workout," explains YogaRita director Sydney Fontaine Forestal. She continues, "When things get a bit intense, participants are free to go into downward facing dog and grab a sip of the YogaRita margarita to take off the edge."
To celebrate National Margarita Day, El Pinto Restaurant and Cantina will honor happy hour prices on all margaritas all day Sunday and Monday. The Sunday YogaRita classes are at 10 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. Each last for an hour. Serving of the YogaRita margarita starts at 11 a.m. A $5 donation is requested for the class and El Pinto provides participants $5 off brunch and drinks, making the event essentially free.
No reservations are needed for YogaRitas. Enter the main entry of El Pinto and you will be directed to a dedicated heated patio to join 50 to 60 other YogaRita enthusiasts. No experience is necessary in yoga. Please bring a yoga mat, but El Pinto has a few on hand that can be borrowed.
