In-Person Classes Canceled Until December 9th + Tips for Home Practice

Dear Friends,

Due to the most recent directive by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, all in-person yoga classes will be canceled until December 9th, effective immediately.

The good news is that we will continue forward with all of our classes virtually, via Zoom! This is a great way to keep your practice going – more important now than ever – and maintain a sense of community with your fellow yoga students. It also is a much appreciated way to support our beloved crew of teachers during these challenging times. <3

Once you sign up for a virtual class, a Zoom link to join the class will automatically be emailed to you.

Tips for a successful home yoga practice:

Setting the mood makes all the difference!

-Set the mood. Candles, incense, dim lighting, a quiet, warm space… all of these mood settings contribute to a much elevated home yoga experience.
-Prop yourself. Treat yourself to a blanket, some blocks (or thick books), a bolster or couch cushion, and a strap or a belt to have on hand. Props are a great way to support your body, and your practice.
-Pick a playlist. You can play music during class, either on the same device as you’re streaming class with, or on a different one. Soft music for the slower classes, and more upbeat tunes for the more movement based practices are a good way to go!
-Show up early and stay late! Feel free to “arrive” to your home practice early, take some deep breaths, play some soft music, and sit or lay down in quiet meditation. You could even do some journaling before or after class. And because you’re at home, you can always stay in Savasana as long as you like!

Thanks to all of you who have been with us in-person or virtually these last few months. If you haven’t tried a virtual class yet, please do! We need each other now more than ever, so we sincerely hope you’ll join us online until we can be together in person again.

Love to all,

Mariah, Patty, Amy M., Amy B., Laurie & Lexi

Join us for new Virtual Vinyasa with Lexi! Plus Craf Center update…

In addition to her in-person class, you can now join Lexi for Virtual Vinyasa via Zoom, every Saturday at 10:00am! Click here to view the schedule and sign up.

Also, just an FYI for Craf Center classes: we will now cap classes at 8 people for the current studio space that we have been using, to allow for even more space between students. Classes over 8 people will take place in the larger room, adjacent to the current space. A kind reminder to please wear your mask whenever you’re not on your mat – thank you!

We hope to see you soon,

the STY crew
