Thursday in Yoga

Hey ladies. Just wanted to say keep up the good work. I hope everyone is enjoying getting together for Yoga.

Keep your fingers crossed that the heat isn't on when we get there tomorrow. I thought I was going to have a heat stroke before we got done the other night. Also, I'll try to get the CD on repeat the CD instead of repeat the song. Oops, sorry about that. Remember what I said in the beginning............you're getting what you are paying me for.........NOTHING!!!

See you tomorrow and I promise we won't do the chair pose!

Later, Andrea

Thanks for Coming.....

Hope everyone had a good time last night, relaxed and isn't too sore today. My back is a bit sore, but I think I hurt myself over the weekend doing Wii Baseball. I will lay off of that for awhile and see how I do.

So, the official time is now 5:15 - 6:15. I hope that this will give everyone a bit more time to get from work to Lone Elm.

If you didn't come on Monday, but you are still interested in coming...........just show up. You can start and stop doing this at any time.

Any questions????

See ya Thursday.

Andrea

See You Tomorrow....

Hey Ladies..... I've been doing a little bit of work to get things all figured out for tomorrow night. I'm really excited for us to get started. I just hope you aren't disappointed by my ability to lead the group!

So............see everyone at 5:00. All you need to bring is:

#1) Yourself

#2) Your mat or a rug

#3) Ten dollars

#4) All of your stress

Later, Andrea

The Plan for Now......

As it stands right now. We will be getting together on Monday and Thursday nights from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm at the Lone Elm Community Building. If this time doesn't work for the majority, then we can change the time (see the poll at the bottom of this page). However, we need to do it early enough that we can be out of the building before the 4-H or the VFW would need it.

The initial cost is going to be $10 per person (one-time cost) and this will go to pay the building rent. By each of us paying $10 this should pay our rent for at least a couple of months. When I run out of money for rent, I will let everyone know and at that time we can decide if we want to continue to get together. The Lone Elm Township has agreed to give us a reduced rate on the building in order for us to be able to afford to use it. That being said, there could be occasions when someone who is paying FULL PRICE may need the building on our night. If this happens, we will have to change our time or cancel for the evening.

I plan to use this Blog Site to keep everyone posted on any changes in scheduling. Please save this site and check on it regularly to keep up on any changes. This will take the pressure off of me. By doing this I won't have to make phone calls, etc. Please feel free to contact me, Emily or mom with any questions. My home number is: 620-852-3160 and my cell number is: 620-363-0340.

Please post on here if you have any questions and it might be a good way for us to all stay in touch.

If you are concerned about the difficulty of this, don't be........the age range of our Iola class is anywhere from 18 - 85. You CAN do it.

Now for the good stuff. The first meeting is set for Monday, February 16th at 5:00. If you are SURE you want to do this, then you will want to bring a yoga mat. If you just want to try it out for awhile, you could bring a rug to use for a couple of sessions. I have an extra mat and I would be glad to bring it for someone to try, just let me know. You will most likely want to do your Yoga barefooted or wearing socks that have grippies (not sure that is a word) on the bottom.

At the first meeting, we will decide for sure about our next meeting. I am paid up in Iola through the end of the month and I would like to finish that out. Sorry...

The goal of this whole thing it to gain flexibility and strength while we learn to RELAX.

It is OK if you can only make it to one meeting a week. One night of relaxing is better than nothing, right?

Ok, so that is all I can think of for now.
