MONTREAL, Aug. 19, 2016 /CNW Telbec/ - After a spectacular visit to Toronto's Exhibition Place on July 28th, 2016, the Lolë White Tour stopped at the Old Port of Montreal to celebrate yoga at the Jacques-Cartier Quay. The fifth spectacular Lolë White Tour edition in Montreal was held under the setting sun for the first time! This unique event was part of a series of unforgettable events around the world organized by women's activewear and lifestyle brand Lolë.
A group of 7,000 yogis, dressed all in white as a symbol of peace, united to experience a unique evening of pure serenity against the backdrop of the beautiful Montreal city and its harbourfront. From 7:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., this iconic location was host to a special yoga session led by internationally renowned yoga teacher Seane Corn, Lolë ambassador Dawn Mauricio (who has been hosting the Lolë White Tour for the past three years), as well as yoga teacher and former principal Grands Ballets Canadiens dancer Geneviève Guérard. Montreal singer-songwriter Ariane Zita guided participants through their poses with soothing piano melodies, including an original composition called "Thousand Places," which was enthusiastically received.
The Lolë White Tour has become extremely popular since its inception in 2012 and continues to grow internationally. The brand has a special attachment to Montreal as its beloved hometown city. Taking over iconic venues such as the Olympic Stadium or the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Lolë has decided to celebrate its fifth anniversary by returning to its roots and the great outdoors! "Celebrating yoga at sunset in such an inspiring place encourages inner reflection within a shared energy space. All the strangers around you who are enjoying that moment of escape quickly become your friends. This is an exceptional experience for body and soul!" said Nathalie Binda, Vice-President of Marketing at Lolë.
