On this eve of Good Friday, I would like to Send out prayers to all those who are afflicted by this virus.  (we all are , on some level ) but especially, I send prayers to the people of India as they fight this virus.   Especially the poor people who have a harder time distancing.  I 
express my gratitude to India for giving us the rich practice of yoga. I was raised as a Lutheran , but I didn't really connect to the teachings from that tradition. Altho I do honor them and think Jesus was an amazing teacher .  During these days of the virus, I'm just so happy to be able to find solace in my practice , alone and with others.  Thank you to the students who have come to my classes over the last 20 years. I think about you and pray for you years after you came for your last class.  I will always consider myself blessed to have been your teacher.  or your massage therapist..   or your French teacher.  or your portrait artist .. or your friend.

Spring is in the air...(sometimes).   It was a nice sunny day.  I even got to cross country ski at Turtle Lake Park. The wind did make it a bit nippy tho, so I only went around the park one and 1/2 times.. Didn't make it onto the lake as I had planned. A new session of two months  will begin starting the first week of March.  It will run through the end of April for a total of 9 weeks.  You don't have to sign up for the entire session, we feel it is the way to feel the most successful in this practice at our studio.  It helps to create the sense of community that we appreciate so much during these times of political turmoil and confusion. Hiyala's class:  Tues am 9:30-10:45. Ruth teaches Thursdays "Chair Yoga" 5-6pm and "Body Flow" from 6:15-7:30pm. Hiyala also teaches a mat pilates class on Thursdays from 10-11am. To sign up, just email me and let me know your intentions.  I'll help you determine the rate you need to pay, and it'
