With the beginning of June, many of you are busy with warm weather projects - gardening, painting, scrubbing porches and decks. Many of these activities are nourishing to our souls but hard on our body. If you are faithful and consistent with your yoga practice, you are hopefully noticing that you have gained strength and flexibility but the strenuous work of summer can still leave your body feeling sore. It is especially important to maintain your yoga practice now. See our schedule.

Take advantage of Bellas "Summer Special" Our Unlimited Monthly Class Card will be available for $50 purchased anytime in June, July or August. This is an opportunity for you to attend as many classes as you can for one low price. Each of our classes has a little different focus so venture out and try something different.

Our Saturday Gentle and Strengthening Class seems to be developing into a bit more of a challenging class. The class will now be geared toward a more classic yoga style for All Levels. Your Saturday instructors will attempt to offer a variety of yoga postures and relaxation techniques to challenge the beginner as well as the more experienced student. No matter your level of experience, you will find this class satisfying and challenging as well.

The Tuesday night Beginner Class is also evolving and has become more of a Beginner Plus class. This class will continue to offer the basic postures while allowing you to develop your comfort level even further.

We are planning to run several 7 Week Beginner Only series. Let us know if you, or someone you know, may be interested in this upcoming Beginner Class.

Cancellations:
There will be no Pre Natal Class on July 7.

Many of you who practice regularly can attest to having a relationship of sorts with your yoga mat. This may sound a little strange but for some of us, our time on our mat, whether in a studio or at home, is a sacred and cherished time. The mat defines a boundary of time and space.

If you haven't purchased your own mat yet, please do. We have a number of mats for sale made by Gaiam and being sold for $16. WE also have a small number of Enviro Friendly mats (which, unfortunately, are a little costly).

We will still have mats available for those of you who prefer to place your mat on top of a studio mat for a little added comfort. If you forget your mat, we'll have one for your use.

Thanks again for your continued support of Bellas.
Namaste, Cathy

Sincerely,
