Happy New Year!

We have some news and events coming up at the studio for your information:

·         There is a special core strengthening workshop with Christine Peterson this coming Saturday (1/30) at 12:45pm- 3pm.  This workshop is for all levels and it will emphasize the core workout along with other yoga postures you may have not practiced in our regular classes.  If you are attending this workshop, we recommend you do not take our regular class that morning.  Please visit our homepage for more information.  The fee is $25.  You may register in advance by calling the studio or in person on the day of the workshop. It will be first-come first-serve basis.  Please arrive no later than 12:30pm with your regular Bikram gear plus you will need an additional mat or a big towel to be used for the ab workout.  Also bring a strap if you have one.

·         In February, WED 5:30pm class will be changed to an Advanced Flow class.  We recommend that you have practiced at least 6 months of our regular Bikram classes to be prepared for this class.  If you need more information, please call Diana at the studio.  As always, you are responsible for your own well being, and if you are dealing with any injuries, you should not attend this class.  The other 5:30pm weekday classes remain the same. Based on the feedback, we will let you know if we will continue this advanced flow class after February.

·         The current Oprah Magazine (FEB issue) has part 2 of the Bikram Yoga Article that started in the January issue.  Page Williams, a student from Memphis, TN, shares her "60-Day Bikram Yoga Challenge" experience.  Page lost 14 pounds in 60 days and as she puts it, “I feel more limber, focused, cleansed and relaxed.” I think you will love her inspiring story!

·         By popular demand, we will bring back our “6 Week Challenge” which begins on Monday, February 15 lasts thru Sunday, March 28, 2010.  Your goal is to complete 6 classes per week for 6 weeks.  There will be a sign-up sheet at the studio.

Class Cancellations Under Inclement Weather Situations

We have 2 posture clinic sessions that will be offered in February and March.  The first session, led by Debby, will focus on the standing series.  The second session, led by Diana, will cover the floor series. Both clinics will be held on Saturday from 12:45pm – 3pm (dates to be announced).  Stay tuned for the next email for more information.
