New ideas, new perspectives

Refreshed and re-energized after the 2008 YTT Retreat on Salt Spring Island this weekend, new ideas spinning in my mind as fast as the cherry blossom petals are falling from the trees!

Stay tuned!

Winter Flow

Schedule:

Sunday, January 6th, 1:00pm to 2:00pm

Monday, January 7th, 6:30pm to 7:30pm

Your investment:

$10.00 per class

Two classes for $18.00

Location:

Centretown

11 Florence Street, just off Bank Street (kitty corner from the Book Bazaar).

Email lewis_jm@hotmail.com to confirm your attendance.

*Please bring your own yoga mat and a shawl/blanket for relaxation.

See you soon!

Happy Winter Solstice!

Change is in the air...

..and I am heading west this fall to take on new challenges for my job.

I hope to offer classes for Ebb and Flow Yoga out in Vancouver, and perhaps a workshop or two when I am back in Ottawa over the holidays.

Namaste!
