Hi yogis!

We had a great Core Yoga class this morning. Thanks to you early risers for rocking it out. Gentle Yoga is tonight at 6:00pm, and Empower Yoga in Grayling is tomorrow at 8:30am sharp!

In light of the holidays, the scattered Christmas schedules, and the (hopefully) busy ski season, we will be off from Christmas Eve (Monday, Dec. 24) through New Year’s Day (Tuesday, Jan. 1). Class will resume Wednesday, January 2nd, with Empower Yoga in Grayling at 8:30am.

But don’t worry, there is still the Yoga-Ski Retreat this coming Saturday, December 22nd! Yoga plus skiing plus food. What could be better? Give me a call or email to sign up. Cost is $35, or $30 if you have your own ski equipment. Keep in mind, this retreat is separate from your normal yoga package, and will not count against your membership.

In the event that there is not enough snow to ski on, we will reschedule the Yoga-Ski Retreat to a later date, so that we get the full experience of cross country skiing with yoga, as well as the full value of the ski rental, lesson and trail pass. I will be in touch if this is the case, but for now plan on a white, snowy Yoga-Ski Retreat this Saturday!

Have a wonderful holiday season. Thank you for sharing your practice, your energy, and your light. Take care of yourself, find some quite time for reflection, and don’t forget to breathe. Shine on through the new year!

Much love,

Mariah

Hi All!

I hope everyone is having a good week.

A quick update on next week’s schedule – I will be out of town on Tuesday (to promote XC skiing down in Detroit – watch for me on Fox News 2 on the 8:30am segment!), so I am rescheduling both of Tuesday’s classes to Thursday, 12/13. So, Empower Yoga will be next Thursday morning at 6:00am, and Gentle Yoga will be next Thursday at 6:00pm. The following week, classes will go back to normal.

Thanks for being patient with my schedule changes! Always remember you can call me directly if you’re not sure about class times.

Also, another reminder for the Yoga-Ski Retreat on December 22nd! It’s going to be a ton of fun. Great thing to do with a friend, spouse, or visiting family. And a great deal! You can sign up here: https://clients.mindbodyonline.com/ASP/home.asp?studioid=29064

Have a great weekend, see you next week!

Hello Yogis!

A couple of announcements:

Tuesday evening Gentle Yoga and Wednesday morning Empower Yoga in Grayling are cancelled next week. I will be traveling out of town for my ski life job. Sorry for any inconvenience! Monday morning Gentle and Tuesday morning Core are still good to go.

Now that it is December, mark your calendars for the first annual Stone Turtle Yoga-Ski Retreat on December 22nd! Kick off your holidays with a blissful day of yoga, skiing, and healthy, satisfying food. The day begins at 9:00am with a mild yet invigorating Gentle Yoga class at the Gerrish Township Fire Hall. Then it’s off to Cross Country Ski Headquarters for a full day ski rental, trail and facilities pass, and hour long group ski lesson with a friendly, knowledgeable instructor. Top it all off with a delicious lunch at the Stone Turtle Day Lodge Café, and enjoy the rest of the day skiing or relaxing by the huge field stone fireplace! Both the yoga and the skiing will be taught in a welcoming, beginner-friendly environment, and all are invited to participate, including newbies to yoga, skiing or both! It’s a perfect winter activity to do with visiting family members and friends, or maybe a nice little getaway for yourself from that holiday stress :). Over a $60 value for only $35 if you pre-register, or $45 if you register the day of. If you have your own ski equipment, the early bird registration is $30. You can pre-register through the online class schedule, or just call or email me to sign up. It will be a ton of fun!

Have a great rest of the weekend. Thank you for continuing to inspire!

Peace,

Mariah
