🌺 🙌 🧘♀️ 🌱 Good afternoon to you, I hope this email finds you well! Please read this newsletter email when you have five minutes, as I have a lot of updates! Make a cup of tea or a cocktail and come back when you are ready to read this novel. 😉
Tuesday morning while driving to the 6am Mindful Movement class, I witnessed the full moon eclipse, and it was epic!
Perhaps equally epic is this little micro yoga studio of ours, if I may say so myself! <3
Website
I am excited to share that we will have a website going live in the near future! Address will be heberovergaardyoga.com, and I will let you know when it is up and running. I chose this address instead of vrksasanayoga.com because I didn't want it to feel like a sanskrit spelling test every time you wanted to book a class, haha!
Calendar
Alongside the website, I will soon begin to advertise in town for classes, which I have not yet done. This will most likely bring in more yoga students, as will the summer travellers. I've deeply enjoyed our slow and organic beginnings, and the time has come to prepare myself and the studio for a most likely bustling future.
The rhythm that you are settling into with the classes you are taking is beautiful to witness and to also be a part of. I am so proud of the dedication you have to yourself and your practice; peace looks good on you. <3
If there is a class or are classes you want to take every week, may I ask you to consider booking those classes a month out at a time? Signing up for classes in advance will also help me gauge my current class offerings and make modifications for a potentially more robust spring and summer schedule.
Our studio space is a cozy and beautiful one, and I will honor your feedback in reference to increasing the class size to ten; 100% voted to keep class cap the same at eight students.
I would like to host some classes in the shade of the ponderosas at Tall Timbers and other larger locations as the need arises, please let me know if you know a good spot we can use.
Spring Break
I will be taking a Spring Break the week of May 18-25. Please let me know if you or someone you know is a certified yoga instructor and interested in subbing.
Class Duel/Dance Off
I must have been under a dizzy spell when I added BOTH Monday evening at 7pm AND Tuesday morning at 6am as class offering times?! Both classes are Mindful Movement and have had light attendance, and one unfortunately needs to take a step back. 😬 ☹️. Attendance for the month of March for both classes will determine which is pulled from the class offerings schedule, as I am only human, and that back to back has been much more difficult on me than I imagined. May the odds be ever in your favor!
No Drop Ins
Please be sure to either sign up for class, or text/email me to add you into a class BEFORE the class begins. In light of the 8-student cap on classes and everything that is to come, thank you for your help and support. If you need help, please let me know! 🙂
Photo Shoot
Rather than generic stock photos, I would LOVE some real pictures of real Heber-Overgaardians (?) in class practicing yoga for our up and coming website!! I don't have a date set quite yet, will most likely take place during Community class on a Friday, there will be snacks, we can take some staged and candid photos, and maybe then an adult beverage afterwards and have a little yogi social?? If this seems neat and nice, please write back to this email, "I'm in!" No faces nor close ups, no special lighting nor makeup, just a normal class! 🙂
Summer Schedule
Without subbing in the schools nor teaching dance classes, my class offerings schedule will shift to most likely Wednesday-Saturdays for the summer. Just planting that seed, more to come later. 🙂
Workshops/Series
Is there something that you would like to gain or get better at over the summer as far as your yoga practice is concerned? I am open to hosting focused workshops and/or series this summer if the interest and ideas are there? Reply to this email if you have a concept you'd like to explore!
MERCH COMING SOON!
Closing
Well ok, I guess there was a lot to say!! You are wonderful and fabulous, and SUCH a rockstar; thank you for sticking around to the end of this dissertation! Thank you for trusting me with your journey and your practice, I am better because of you. <3
The light and love in me sees and honors the light and love in you,
Kirsten
