The 108: A special event taking place every three months on the occasion of the equinoxes and solstices. We gather to celebrate the changing of the seasons, check in with our bodies/ mind/ breath and challenge ourselves to move through 108 sun salutations. Let go of the last three months and ready yourself for the next with this traditional, cleansing, yogic ritual. Making this practice a cyclical ritual in your life helps to put you in sync with the rhythm of the earth which can be an incredibly empowering and liberating experiencing. Please join us.
Starting June, 2020, Each 108 is run as a fundraiser for a non-profit organization. A donation of at least $10 to the current fundraiser will be required for attendance. You do not have to take part in the practice to donate to the fundraiser.

108s in 2021
All Bad Dog Rebel 108s in 2021 will be fundraisers for Grow Benzie. Bad Dog Rebel supports Grow Benzie's mission: "to enrich our region by fostering positive action to increase access to healthful foods, jobs, life skills, and each other by providing a community place that supports and nurtures these activities." Benzie County is the physical home of Bad Dog Rebel Fitness & Yoga so Grow Benzie is a local organization that supports our values around environmental justice and healthful food equity.
Bad Dog Rebel encourages everyone, wherever they are, to find out who and which organizations are supporting these endeavors in their local communities and support them. And, in the meantime, please support Grow Benzie and the physical home of Bad Dog Rebel Fitness & Yoga by giving to our Grow Benzie Fundraiser this year and participating in The 108 with us in March, June, September and December.
A donation of at least $10 to this fundraiser is required to participate in each 108. You do not have to complete 108 full sun salutations to participate. You can modify as many sun salutations as you need and you may rest during some cycles as well. This is not about pushing yourself to physically do that much work (unless that's part of it for you) -- this is about connecting your body and mind through your breath to honor and sync with the cyclical rhythm of nature. You can do The 108 fully standing, seated on the floor or seated in a chair if that is what your particular body needs. Please don't let the physical challenge of this practice keep you from participating. This practice need only be as challenging as you want it to be. Ultimately, this is a movement meditation and thus can be adapted to your unique and wonderful body.
