Become one with nature while you work on your flexibility and core strength. The class led by Align RVA Wellness is a mixed-level flow and great for beginner to advanced practitioners, but we do ask that you have taken at least a class or two before showing up!Yoga is for everybody and every body, not just the super flexible. This party is BYOM (bring your own mat) because no one wants grass stains on their palms from doing downward dog!

🚧 Help Us Maintain Our World Class Trail System & Riverfront
The James River Park System and the Richmond Riverfront are extremely important asset to Richmond, and Dominion Energy Riverrock provides the opportunity to celebrate the Park System and Riverfront and all of the outdoor recreation opportunities RVA has to offer. Please consider a donation to benefit Richmond’s outdoor amenities. Your gift will help maintain, improve and enhance the James River Park System trails and Richmond’s riverfront. Donations and volunteerism make both our trails and riverfront nationally acclaimed… they would not be what they are today without the hard work of countless volunteers throughout the year and it is donations like yours that make this work possible. In the past Dominion Energy Riverrock donations were able to support not only general trail maintenance but also very specific infrastructure and equipment improvements like supporting the universal access ramp at Huguenot Flatwater, funding a Northbank retaining wall, the purchase of a chainsaw & trimmers to maintain trails, two new trail ramps, the replacement of all bike pumps at the bike repair stations around the James River Park System, and the Brown's Island improvement project. The James River Park System and riverfront continues to see heavy use so donations to maintain and make improvements are important to the overall sustainability of this RVA asset.
📖 Our Story
We live and work by Richmond’s picturesque riverfront. With a network of trails and amazing views just steps away from a vibrant downtown, we knew we had to let everyone in on the secret that was Richmond, VA. And what better way to celebrate than with the nation’s premier outdoor sports and music festival?!
Sports Backers and Venture Richmond both work to make RVA a vibrant place to live. Bringing our two nonprofit organizations together to create one of the nation’s most beloved outdoor festivals was a no-brainer! Venture Richmond provides the entertainment, and Sports Backers brings the athletes. It all adds up to a great showcase of Richmond’s riverfront and all it has to offer!
