New Schedule Posted!
I finally updated my schedule tab. Of course, as yoga teachers across the world know, we have a very "flexible" (cough) profession, in which schedules change with surprising alacrity. For now, however, I am working eight classes a week. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to teach as much as I do; although, of course, I would happily teach a couple more every week. Just one lady doing what she can to make yoga her primary profession.
As of now, not doing any privates, although I am definitely open to the idea. Maybe in the future!
