ey, Austin Fit Magazine readers! This month’s Ambassador’s Corner will highlight Rooftop Yoga at The Riley because it’s just too good to not know about. As a reminder, this Ambassador’s Corner is dedicated to supporting OSD, a nonprofit that enables veterans, active military and their family members to thrive. By working with members of the community, OSD creates and nurtures an environment to improve our local communities and assist veterans as they transition into civilian life. Every donation makes a difference in the lives of our military community and their families. Thank you for your generosity as we continue to bring awareness and help those in need.

Being an Austinite, I’m the worst tour guide because getting out of my routine is something I don’t think about often!

If you’re planning on attending here’s what you need to know: • It’s year-round, meaning rain, shine, cold, hot — it is happening! • There are heaters, fans, retractable roofing and wind guards to help out. • Masks are currently optional. • There is a limited capacity so make sure to RSVP to guarantee your spot!
