Happy New Years!
Resolutions? Get fit, feel great, calm the mind, laugh and have a great year! Let’s do it!
Studio Sangha opens on January 7th, 2008 with the same schedule as before the silly season (The only change is the Senior’s Yoga class on Wednesday 12-1pm will resume Febuary 7th.) We are kicking in strong with a one month special from January 7-Febuary 7th unlimited yoga for $99. Tell your friends and bring your friends. We offer a $5 credit on your account for every local friend you bring in. Get rid of those kilos and detox the body and mind with Bikram Yoga and Dynamic Hatha. Look on the website for the schedule if you don’t have it.
This year will be an exciting year for the studio as we grow and continue to have fantastic workshops. I want to start telling everyone about Lance Schuler who is coming for a weekend workshop Febuary 15-17. He is an amazing teacher, one of my teachers, who loves to teach backbends, inversions, arm balances and all sorts of challenging yet simple postures. Lance can just as easily teach a beginner as a more advanced student and the workshop is open to all levels. For those of you with a practice and ready to do more, don’t miss this weekend. I will have more information coming on the website soon but please let me know as soon as possible if you want to sign up for part or all of the weekend, there will be 5 sessions, one Friday night, 2 Saturday and 2 Sunday. This weekend will book out. Please email me at peggy@queenstownyoga.com or talk to Anna or Donna in the office.
As many of you know, I am in Christchurch for one month taking a teachers training with a very well known teacher, Donna Farhi (her books are for sale at the studio). I was honored to be accepted into the program and will have the pleasure of meeting 70 yoga teachers from all over the world to study and practice. Wow!! The studio will be run by Donna and Anna while I am gone. Also, I have a wonderful Bikram teacher coming down from Auckland to cover the Bikram classes and give you her best. Her name is Emma and please take advantage of having a different Bikram teacher. There are so many ways to say the same thing in a class and often having a different teacher can really help to make things connect. Enjoy!
I am super excited for this year as I have big plans for our happening little studio, more classes, more teachers, more workshops and more inversions. Yep, we are ready.
Thanks for all your support, practice, and love and allowing me to stumble along with the business. If you ever have any comments, just email them through to me or leave a note at the desk. We love your input and appreciate it. Every day I learn more. Most importantly, I want to keep the quality of the teaching the best, with continual training for myself and the teachers, so we can be the best teachers, with the best education for the best students.
Have a great January, practice strong softly, and see you in Febuary
Namaste, Peggy
