I just wanted to give everyone an update on our Yoga Day USA event we hosted this past Saturday.  It was a huge success.  We raised $160 for the Well Fed Neighbor Alliance and had the largest yoga class we've ever had thus far at The Move Studio! 

After having to turn away only five people, our final count was 35 students plus Shari in the studio - can you believe that?!  It was an amazing sight to look across the sea of students coming together to practice together for such a great cause.

The food was absolutely delightful and a big hit.  Fresh made hummus, red pepper feta dip, Indian flat bread, date balls, cranberry truffles, and an assortment of fresh fruit and vegetables was such a great compliment to the day.  Thank you, Greg and Clyde, for all your work and support.  Plus, that herbal tea was amazing!

Thank you to our vendors that joined us in the afternoon.  The raffled items were a great hit and it was awesome to begin building such a great community of friends and business support.  Many blessings to all of you for a successful 2009. 

A great friend of ours called us today to tell us about a story she heard on NPR that covered the buying patterns for self care during today's economy.  I listened to it and found it very interesting and important.  I've posted the link below for anyone else who would like to listen in.

Have a great week and be careful if it gets too icy today and tomorrow!

Join us for a drum circle led by percussionist, Curtis Claybaker. All instruments welcome. We will have several extra drums, didgeridoos, and shakers for those who do not have anything to play but would like to join us.

Our studio can hold up to 30 people and we have several yoga bolsters, blankets, and mats to use for getting comfortable. Spread the word!

"Yoga Day USA is an annual event where the Yoga Alliance community comes together to share the health and wellness benefits of yoga and the transformative effects it can have on one's life," says Yoga Alliance President & CEO R. Mark Davis. "The practice is literally for 'every body' – it meets you where you are no matter what your capacity or state of health," he added.

YOGA DAY USA was created by Yoga Alliance, the international gold standard for professional yoga teachers & schools and the leader in setting standards that protect the health and welfare of society.

Join us on Saturday, January 24th for a free yoga class and open house. We will have several local clients, students, and artists displaying their talents and will serve refreshments. The schedule of events is as follows:

9am - 10:30am FREE Yoga Class
10:30am - 1pm Refreshments available
11am - 1pm Local business and artists exhibits in open house

We have tried to keep our policy as simple as possible to keep everyone informed. Here's the basic idea:

If the Springfield public schools are closed, we are closed.

If the bad weather occurs on the weekend, you can contact the instructor directly or check our website for updates.

Peace!
