NYC ladies: FREE YOGA for us!

mi2

Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you know that I will be co-teaching FREE yoga for women who have had cancer, in Manhattan starting Sept. 10, every 2nd and 4th Saturday at 12:30 pm.

Full details here:

The class will be suitable for all levels and women in treatment or out of treatment. I especially want to get those of us in the younger set into class. Our aim is to provide a class that, if the students want it, will be a somewhat vigorous Vinyasa class that will help those of us who have had treatment or surgery regain real strength and mobility. It will not be a "gentle" class as such, though if you want something more on the gentle side, we can certainly do that too. There will be two teachers at every class, so we will be able to provide ample modifications and alternate poses for all levels.

(If you are in active treatment, make sure you get your doctor's clearance to do yoga, and consider bringing your own mat and/or towel for sanitary reasons. Though the studio where the classes are being held is very clean.)

I am really excited about this class, and I hope to see some of you there! Please help spread the word and bring people -- it's for women who have had any kind of cancer, not just breast.

Any questions, let me know!

Melinda,

If you want, maybe we can organize a mini YSC class for while you are here -- rent a studio, etc. If you know enough people who would come as part of your visit, let me know. Or, we can do a private lesson while you are here!
