Apartment?

Just received an email from our friend Amy Averill,
I have this wonderful 85 year old friend – never married – sweetest, smartest, hippest thing you could ever meet! Her landlord is really taking advantage of her age and relying on the fact that she won’t speak up….wrong.. So, I’m trying to help her in finding a small, clean, safe apartment where she can walk to the bus and in Burlington – away from students. It’s a bit difficult from down here, but I thought that one of you might have or know of something - Do you know of anything? Thanks, Amy
Know of anything? Please email Amy at: aaverill@rtkl.com

October ends and...

We've been so busy with preparations for the new space (which looks like it will be opening for classes November 6 or 13... stay tuned... we should know more later today after the electricians finish up... that it's hard to believe that November is THIS WEEK. So... some thoughts, the November class pass is available for $120. It will be good for use at both studios, one class per day total, non-transferrable, non-refundable. Another reminder that our regular ten class swipe card price will be going up from $100 to $110 on January 1.
This week, the new batch of Kids Sessions begins this morning and Wednesday afternoon.
Kathy's annual Yoga for Skiers and Riders begins this Thursday evening at 7:30pm. Sorry we haven't gotten posters made... there's still plenty of space available - so sign up and get thinking about snow...
Monday, November 6 is the next Kripalu Six Week Session John McCown will be instructing.
Tuesday, November 7 is the next Ashtanga Yoga Six Week Session with Scott York. Breathe. Breathe. Breathe.

Adaptive Yoga for Kids

Some wonderful photos taken at the Thursday Adaptive Yoga for Kids Class taught by instructor Julie Peoples-Clark.

Start Thanksgiving off with grace

Take note, we've just scheduled a special two hour Thanksgiving Day Yoga Session with Sofi Dillof and Emily Garrett. Class will include asana, pranayam, meditation and ritual and be held at the Chace Mill in Studio C from 9-11am. Judging from past Thanksgiving classes, we expect this session will fill up, so we request students pre-register online if they plan to attend and would like to reserve a space. Fee is $20 or two swipes. And extra special thanks to illustrator Harry Bliss for the poster art.
