Outdoor activities groups near Richmond, VA

Sun is shining, weather is sweet, let's move our yogi feet!

Outdoor yoga season is upon us. Join RVA Yoga instructor, Michelle Lee Landon for various OUTDOOR yoga classes through out the city. Connect with nature, while connecting with yourself. Open to all levels of yoga experience! Please keep following as many of our classes have options during the cold season and inclement weather.

Michelle Lee Landon is a yoga instructor living in Richmond, VA. Her style of teaching, and practice continues to evolve as she continues her own journey on the path of yoga. Michelle’s primary style of teaching asana (the physical practice of yoga) is a vinyasa flow style class, that is accessible to all levels of experience; encouraging students to find their own rhythm as they stay tuned with how they are feeling physically, mentally and energetically. She is a believer that love and peace are our true nature, that love always wins, and at any time through out our practice on or off the mat we can pause, reconnect, and "find our mountain". Michelle holds pop up yoga classes around Richmond, and is the organizer of RVA Outdoor Yoga on Meet Up. You can find her almost every day of the week holding classes out doors/ rooftop during the warm seasons.

A group of running friends that also like to hang out for social activities and outdoor exploration decided to organize this group to bring more people along for the fun. If you are a beginning runner or a seasoned runner, we have people of all levels that will be there with you. Many of us run 5k's, 10k's, half marathons or marathons and are training throughout the year, and many of us just love to go for an easy casual run at a pace you can talk to your friends. And then we take the running shoes off and enjoy festivals, biking, hiking, eating out and many other activities. We hope you can come join us!

Master Hikers is an outdoor adventure group that plans hiking, backpacking, cycling, kayaking and other outdoor adventuring events throughout the year which are intended for experienced outdoor enthusiasts. The goal of the Master Hikers is to provide each member challenging experiences which strengthens them physically, mentally and spiritually while exploring the natural beauty of places we explore as a social network of individuals with similar interests.

Central Virginia Trailblazers was established in 2011 as an activity based hiking and outdoor adventure group in Richmond, Virginia. At the time, there were few if any active groups in the area that welcomed hikers and adventure lovers of all experience levels. Over the years, we have brought together over 3,000 like-minded individuals throughout Greater Richmond and beyond who have taken part in over 1,000 adventures.

Our activities reflect the diversity of our members. The hikes on our calendar range from casual, beginner-level strolls through local parks and neighborhoods to strenuous overnight backpacking trips in the Blue Ridge Mountains. In addition to hiking, other popular activities include car camping, kayaking, recreational biking, and social gatherings. Most activities and trips are within an hour or two of Richmond, but we often travel beyond Virginia’s borders for multi-day trips to other states.

A tremendous amount of planning and coordination is required to make these events happen. We are extremely fortunate to have an exceptional group of volunteer organizers (“Adventure Specialists”), all of whom donate their time, effort, talent, and experience to make these amazing trips possible. Their loyalty and dedication is one of the key reasons that CVT stands out from other groups.

We are a group of active women, all ages, who enjoy exploring the outdoors, travel, and the friendship of other women. We have nothing against men, many of us are married to one, but this is a group for women to be themselves in the out-of-doors. 

You might be a camper, hiker or kayaker; or wish to learn how; or.. maybe you just want some friends to walk with around the block. All abilities, ideas are welcome.  

We have a few ground rules. We strive to be very welcoming to all. Political talk, disrespect and negativity towards others isn't acceptable. We are here to enjoy the out of doors and make friends. 

Your membership includes a 90 day free trial to look over our events, and determine if we are a good fit. I hope to meet you soon.
