DJing the Seawheeze Store

Back in May 2015 I started DJing full time. Those first few months were great, finding my way into self employment. But it also was a summer of anticipation as I was training to run my first Lululemon Seawheeze Half Marathon in August of that year.

The race, which takes place in Luluemon’s birthplace, Vancouver, was an amazing experience. I also admired the DJs that were spinning in the Seawheeze store and other areas of the pre-race events.

A few months later, I was extremely lucky enough to return to Vancouver to DJ Lululemon’s Leadership Conference. In the summers that followed, I have returned to run Seawheeze with the hopes each year to DJ at the event.

Well this was the year and the day was August 16, 2019.

It was a proud moment for me. I’ve had the privilege to DJ some cool events for Lululemon, including a store opening in Palm Springs and the recent Lululemon San Diego 10k kick off event. ⁠

But DJing just one element of the brands annual Seawheeze (half marathon) weekend in Vancouver was on my bucket list. Well I can check that off. ⁠

This particular event, was the exclusive shopping experience for the runners, the Seawheeze Store.⁠

Aside from Black Friday, this has to be the single biggest shopping day for Lululemon. It’s arguably the most important “store” they set-up for the year . . . And I got to set the tone. I can't wait to see what experience will top this!⁠

Here’s a look at the 4-hour setlist I played for the thousands of runners that came through that morning.

DJ Kanoya Restorative Yoga Flow - Live Yoga Music Mix

DJ_Kanoya_yogaflow_sara.png

This is a continuous 60+ minute restorative yoga setlist, originally programmed for the August 22, 2017 Savasana at Sunset taught by Sara Shermis. The first 10 minutes are ambient, useful for a warm-up flow and/or meditation. The pace picks up slightly, with vocal tracks sprinkled in throughout. But the pace is mostly slow, specifically for the restorative nature of the class it was created for.

At 55:27, the music is all ambient for approximately 20 minutes. This gives you a window for both a cool down and savasana.

Lululemon La Jolla’s Tuesday night yoga sessions continued throughout the summer, and I had a chance to squeeze in another DJ session. The event, Savasana at Sunset, is a benefit to OG Yoga, an organization that brings the practice of yoga to those that may not otherwise be exposed to it, including underprivileged youth, battered women and even prison inmates.

For the August 22 session, I was introduced to San Diego yoga instructor, Sara Shermis, who I had the pleasure of DJing alongside for the first time.

This summer, Lululemon La Jolla has teamed up with OG Yoga for a Savasana at Sunset, a Tuesday night series of yoga events at La Valencia hotel.

OG Yoga is an organization that brings the practice of yoga to those that may not otherwise be exposed to it, including underprivileged youth, battered women and even prison inmates. It’s mission is “to deliver trauma informed mindfulness based yoga through partnerships with non-profit organizations serving marginalized individuals to support healing, resilience, self-development and positive social change.”  

My dear friend Brett Timmons was leading the class on August 1. It would be the biggest class she had ever taught and I knew I wanted to be a part of it and help out with the music for the night. Since it was primariy a restorative style of yoga, the beats were super mellow throughout.
