Three of the most significant concerns you may have about color fun runs: How to host your own color fun run? Just How Much Color Powder Do I Need To Order? and Where do I purchase Color Powder? Start at the Beginning - How Does a Color Fun Run Work? A color fun run is much like your normal fun run except for one outstanding factor - runners get showered with color powder at several checkpoints throughout the race. The locations where the hippie powder is tossed on the runners are called Color Stations. In general, course is set out with 3 to 5 color stations on both sides, each assigned with a specific shade: either yellow, red, orange, or blue powder. Assign 2 to 4 volunteers per station to toss color powder on every racer that passes by. Tossing the Color Powder There are two incredible techniques of tossing the colored chalk powder. One is to utilize little dixie cups filled with powder to throw at the trunners. The other is to use squeeze bottles filled with powder and use it to splash powder onto the participants. Only aim from the shoulders down -- never toss it straight at somebody's face, always avoid directly tossing it to the face and eyes. Most of those who organize a fun run and color fun run how to inquiries go for one color per station. But if you want to get creative, go ahead! Exactly What is Color Powder Made of? At Color Blaze we make our colored powder from Cornstarch. The powder's active ingredients are food grade Cornstarch and FDA and FD&C authorized Food and Cosmetic dyes. That's it!

The Setup | Colored PowderShe chose places where her and the kids spend time together and drew outlines of those places on the sidewalk around their home. Using sidewalk chalk from the dollar store, she kept the outlines simple. Those drawings directed the kids to actual locations where she hid a note with a handwritten clue sending the hunters to their next destination. Here are a couple of examples: Treasure Hunt ShowtimeShe gave them each squeeze bottles to test and ensure they could make them work. Then explained that they were going on a treasure hunt! Along the way they would discover picture clues that needed their help by adding some extra color. Then, they searched for these places and found more clues that lead a prize! For example, the picture of the tree meant there was a clue in the tree. They found the clue, color in the tree outline with their colored powder and move onto the next clue. Treasure Found!They had such a fun time walking around the neighborhood, seeing things in new ways and discovering help from friends along the journey! When they found the rest of their gear at the top of the steps, they were so excited! This adventure simply built even more fun into an already amazing activity!

We have seen Fun Runs, Color Wars, Holi Festivals, Photo Shoots, Pep Rallies, Gender Reveals and more, but we had never seen Yoga and Holi Powder together. Once we saw Flow In Color and talked to founder Kara Baruzzini we were ready to hop a flight to Ann Arbor, Michigan to experience Yoga with a festive mood. Holi Color Powder in Two Indian Traditions Kara teaches yoga and she wanted to create a Sangha Experience (Sangha means community in Sanskrit.) So she runs retreats, holds, workshops and runs the festival. The inspiration for this unique celebration came when she saw a YouTube video on a large Holi Festival. “I remember being captivated by the energy of the video and the people involved. My passion at the time was and still is yoga so instantly my creative side started to fire and I knew that one day I would combine color powder with yoga.” She did some research and was amazed at how much Yoga and Holi have in common, “I am in disbelief that the two Indian traditions (Holi and Yoga) aren’t put together more often. They are both about celebrating being alive so it makes so much sense!” The Annual Flow In Color Festival Saturday, June 09 will be their 2nd Annual Flow In Color festival. Traditionally, Holi is celebrated as the beginning of Spring or New Life. This event is a half day yoga festival to welcome the warm weather and to honor the triumph of good over evil by throwing the colored powder up in the air. Kara and her team tie these lively traditions together with yoga, philanthropy, food and music. The day is filled with workshops and of course lively colors. The festival culminates with a dance party. You can see the schedule here. Wholesale Color Powder at Color Blaze We always say “Throw Kindness Around Like Color Powder!” So combining Holi, Yoga, and Color Powder makes perfect sense to us and looks like a whole lot of fun!
