17 beautiful photos from Toronto outdoor yoga session with 3,000 people

On Wednesday we told you some 3,000 yogis were going to meet for a sunset session in Toronto.

Well, we weren’t kidding.

And when you get that many people in the same place – all dressed in white, all on yellow mats, and all posing together – the result is something quite extraordinary.

Intended to be a mass symbol of peace, the Lolë White Tour certainly looked nothing short of angelic.

As for the people taking pictures instead of posing – shame on you (but also thank you so, so much.)

Lole White Tour is just about to begin! 😄 This all white yoga event is dedicated to world peace, it’s so nice to see so many yogis uniting and spreading this kind of positive energy. #lolewhite

What a peace invoking experience today at the Lolë White Tour! Such uplifted vibes as we all flowed and invited the magic of the infinite universe to fill our hearts with connective unity celebrating the ability to be at peace with ourselves, each other, and our scared Mother Earth. Thank you @lolewomen and everyone that made this evening such a magical experience. 💛💛💛 #lolewhite #lolewhitetour #lolewomen #lolewhitetour2016 #toronto #peace #bliss
