Description
At The Wellscene we do yoga differently.
We started in 2014 in London, England, with one dream: to make living a healthy, active lifestyle more sociable.
We love yoga and fitness, and were disappointed and uninspired with the lack of social connection during classes. It felt too disconnected, too individualistic. We know that us human beings are happiest when we feel a deep sense of connection to those around us and share common experiences.
So we started organising pop-up yoga and fitness events where the social element is just as important as moving and sweating. We move, sweat and connect with those around us. All our events are set at at gorgeous locations around town that invite people to hang around for social hour after class, with new and old friends alike, while we serve post-workout drinks and hand out goodie bags with our favourite healthy treats.
We're beyond excited to launch our Los Angeles chapter, in collaboration with the Mondrian Los Angeles!
What's Flow in the Dark? Flow in the Dark is a pop-up yoga experience that will take place in the near dark, with only black light to illuminate the space. To make things extra spectacular, we'll be handing out glow sticks and have a DIY neon face paint station set up so you'll literally flow and glow in the dark. Get an idea of what it looks like here.
Join us at the Mondrian's beautiful airy cabanas, which flow seamlessly into their rooftop deck and pool area. The class will be taught by Mary Beth LaRue, much loved for her bright presence, radiant heart, and her joyful enthusiasm for life. Mary Beth (or MB) guides her students into a practice of stillness, joy, and compassion. She believes that looking at life through the lens of yoga is a transformative and awakening experience for the body, mind, and spirit and wants to share this life changing philosophy with others.
She's also the founder of Rock Your Bliss and has been featured in Yoga Journal, MindBodyGreen and Huffington Post, and teaches at Wanderlust Hollywood.
After class, it's social hour and you'll be invited to join us in Mondrian's Iconic Skybar for a drink of choice (mojito, strawberry daiquiri with or without alcohol, red wine, white wine, beer or soft drink). Hang out with your fellow yogis for a little while before calling it a night. You'll go home with a goodie bag filled with healthy treats and drinks.
So get ready for a feel good evening that, by the way, also makes you do good as we'll donate $1 of your ticket to Cool Earth, a non-profit organisation that does incredible work to fight deforestation - one of the leading causes of climate change. Here at The Wellscene we care about our planet and we feel passionate to contribute where we can!
Sounds good? Grab your ticket and we'll see you on the mat soon!

FAQ
Do I need to bring a yoga mat? If you own a yoga mat, bring one. We'll have a few mats available for those who aren't able to bring their own.
Where can I park? Mondrian will offer valet parking at $4 for 2 hours. Paid on the night of the event.
I'm a yoga newbie. Will this event be suitable for me?Yes, the yoga class is open to all levels. We suggest to take a mat in the 2nd row, so you can follow MB's instructions better than if you were to take a mat at the back. Don't worry about not getting it right as everyone's been a beginner at some point! And, we'll only use black lights to illuminate the space, so it'll be quite dark.
I'm thinking of coming on my own, won't it be awkward? We get that it can be a bit uncomfortable to go to an event on your own. Rest assured that we're a really friendly bunch and will give you a warm welcome when you arrive to break the ice a little. We want you to have a brilliant evening, so will make sure to look after you. Besides, we often have people coming on their own and know that new friendships have been made at our events!
Are tickets refundable? Tickets are refundable up to 30 days before the event. After that they're non-refundable and non-exchangeable.
