Monday Night in the Park...

Just a reminder that while I will not be present on Monday night for the next two weeks due to my holidays, I encourage you to continue your practice without me.

Flow gently with a few sun salutations and some standing postures and move towards a seated meditation...
As your practice becomes your own...you will truly begin to understand why we practice our asanas...explore your breath, with or without your teacher. Your breath will guide you.

I look forward to joining you again on August10th...

Much love and joy

Melanie
