Yoga class in Concord

While gym memberships are down, yoga classes are picking up in the sinking economy. Last weekend, instructors and studios around the country offered free yoga as part of the practice of karma yoga, or giving service to others. Concord area studios joined together to invite devotees and newbies to practice and to donate to a worthy cause.

Producer Sean Hurley joined Virginia and about 35 others at the New Hampshire Audubon Society in Concord for Yoga Day USA.
