HELLO WELLNESS MEMBERS!
I wanted to let you know that I have added a Ravine Yoga for Strength class to your membership this week!
I also wanted to ask if you would be interested in a weekly Yoga Nidra/Sleep Yoga over zoom? I am thinking a Sunday or Monday evening at around 7pm? This would be free for members!
I think it would be a great way to connect and enjoy a relaxing and restoring class at home to start the week off replenished.
Please let me know what you think! :)
