I'm baaaaaaackkkkkk!!!
I'll be starting a new yoga session on Thursdays, 530-630 pm, at the North Oyster Community Centre, starting Feb 13th!
February is going to start with a very gentle, relaxing yoga. I will update you with what march will be soon! Couple changes this year, and a couple things staying the same!
1) I'm going to keep the "pay what you can" set up for my classes. I really don't feel like with how expensive food, rent, living in general is right now compared to average wages, that most yoga is accessible to all.
2) I am going to keep the month to month set up without drop ins, HOWEVER, I am going to be able to make exceptions for shift workers. If you need an exception for month to month sign ups and aren't able to commit to all the classes in the month, please let me know so I am able to open up that class to someone else who maybe can't attend the ones you can!
My goal with month to month instead of allowing drop ins is twofold-
a) It allows people to make a commitment. Since I have a pay what you can structure set up, it frankly has eliminated people's sense of financial commitment that sometimes pushes people to attend. I had numerous people this year request a spot with no financial commitment only to not show up to any of the classes. That being said I want to continue to hold space for those who are really seeking to start or further their yoga practice but can't really afford more than the fuel to get to the class.
b) It really allows me to get to know my students. That sense of community is important to me, and I know, to many of you too! This is ultimately why I am hoping to keep a month to month structure instead of having one off/drop ins. It creates a more comfortable atmosphere, with classes catered to the people who I know show up. I always take requests for focuses on following classes, etc. (Yes, even if it's a return of my singing bowl. =P )
3) I plan on keeping my class sizes small again, I find that works best for all of us. Classes are limited to 12 people (limited further on the sets that require all the extra props as I only have 10 extra sets)
As always, any questions, let me know!!!
I'll do a separate post "advertising" the February classes soon!!!
