Happy Thanksgiving

Giving thanks for all the special things that happen daily that ask us to notice them.  Things that keep us healthy and balanced and remind us of Love.    It's those tiny things that add up to a beautiful life.

Celebrating 16 years this weekend on Nov 25, Thanksgiving weekend is when we opened our doors.


Handmade candle from my lovely niece, India.


Bonne fin d'année.
I will see you in the new year.
Namaste
Michelle
Joyeuses Fêtes!  Happy Happy Holidays!  Let your light shine.

La Bonne Rentrée 2017

La Bonne rentrée,
Eight months of soul-searching and inner work has kept me from writing and sharing beyond what I give in each class for you.  But, what this time off has done for me, to delve in the inner and shy away from the outer distractions that have been tearing our spirit apart is, it has firmed my resolve to stay the path, to speak out against injustice to show and share how the yoga tools benefit us all and I will be there wherever I am needed.

I am doing an immersion of 200 hours for those who would like to go deeper in their practice and/or become teachers and guides themselves.  I will continue to be here to help all of you teachers as well.
The program is full as of this writing and there is a waiting list.  I'll do my best to continue to bring wonderful teachers and workshops to the center.

We have two new teachers in our midst, Laurence Barré, Tuesdays at 19h45 and Olga Spirkina, Mondays at 10h00.  We have an Open House on Sept 24 beginning with the community class and you can come and meet them.   All classes are complimentary up to and including the meditation that day at 19h00.  In recognition of the International Day of Peace, our Porte Ouverte is there simply for us to be together to remind us that in community we are stronger, we are better.

Here is to the new year and our higher selves.
Namaste,
Michelle
