There were seven at the beginners class this morning, including four of them new to yoga. LInda and I wanted to present a class that would describe what yoga is to us: awareness of how we treat others and ourselves, looking within ourselves the poses, breath work, withdrawing the senses, all leading to stilling and calming the mind for meditation. I think it went well and hope to see some if not all of the new students in a class at Studio Mills in the near future.

In yoga, we use a mat, blocks, blanket and straps. Sometimes more. You can purchase these and other goodies at the Studio Mills Yoga Store inside the studio. All items are reasonably priced and available right now! Also, Linda loves leggings, if you don't know. She has made a large purchase and offers a variety of designs for $20 each. They are the rage! You'd find them for up to $75 online. Sorry, but she won't trade for chocolate chunk cookies. The treats DO have great value though. Thanks, as always, Marc.
