MOOSIC -- As part of National Yoga Month, yoga studios across our area are coming together to promote health and wellness for the first ever Northeast PA Yoga Festival.

"I want people to know what their options are for health," said organizer Chelsea Manganaro. "Not just experience yoga, but see all of the different health areas in northeastern Pennsylvania."

"It's a great bonding experience for all the people that live in the area, but it's also great health awareness too," said Christina Galdieri of Montage Mountain.

This won't just be the mainstream yoga you see on television.  Managanaro added there will be anywhere from 24 to 28 different kinds of yoga.

"If it's a type of yoga you've never tried before, it might be a nice time to come and experience that one instead of what you're used to," added Manganaro.

The event at Montage isn't just about your own personal health and wellness, it will also benefit Griffin Pond Animal Shelter.

"We've never been involved with a yoga fundraiser before, but it's a great event and we're getting a portion of the ticket sales so it's great for the shelter," said Anastasia Daniels. "There's a lot of different things people don't consider for holistic treatment for their animals so it kind of ties in a little bit."

The event runs from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday at Montage Mountain.
