If your 2016 goals include getting in shape, being frugal, but also giving back, I've got your all-in-one resolution solution. Most of these yoga classes fall on different dates, at different times, so they could be a nice alternative to a traditional membership and contract. Some of the meet ups even benefit a local charity, so the cash you do spend will go to a good cause.
