To limber up for Thanksgiving, the Yoga Collective is offering a free yoga class from 9 to 10:30 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day at Island Cohousing, 11 Rock Pond Road, West Tisbury. Nothing like some down dogs and a bit of pigeon pose to make the stuffing go down easier.

The class is for all ages and all levels, so yoga time can still be family time.
