Highlights from Grand Opening and Class Schedule for June 24-30

The much anticipated studio opening last Saturday was a big success! After teaching an impromptu Kids Yoga session at South State Park before the Sunrise Fun Run in the morning, we had a great turnout at our open house. We met some great people, gave away yoga prizes, served (and ate) amazing food prepared by The Organic Gypsy, and packed the studio with 20 yoga students (and would have packed about 10 more if we’d had the space!) for the free community class. A big thank you to everyone who came out!

See below or check the Class Schedule tab on the website for next week’s class schedule. Some minor changes, including the addition of an evening Gentle Yoga class on Tuesday night. There are a couple other changes, so be sure to check it out.

Your first class is still free until July 1st, so if we haven’t seen you for class yet, next week has your name on it!

On the comfort front, we have installed 2 fans in the studio to help with air flow and keeping things cool as classes heat up. So far they have been working well. Hope to see you next week! Enjoy the pics. 🙂
