Howdy! I hope you are well. Things are growing and developing here at Soma Ranch, with several things coming up, here’s a “skinny”. I’ll follow up shortly with our Monthly Newsletter with more info like our new dock, wild flowers, super photos and exciting news..
Private Yoga Rental Retreat
We host a private Yoga Retreat this weekend at Soma Ranch. We’re developing beautiful relationships with people who bring their own class participants to retreat together. We are delighted how they come back 1, 2, 3 or even 4 times a year. The connection and development feels more and more like an extended family “love fest”.
As usual next Monday (1st Monday) is when we have coffee, tea, snacks and chat at 11:00am after the 10am Nia class and 8:45am YogaFaith. This is a wonderful way to get together, get to know people and new folks feel welcomed. All funds raised go to our annual charity fundraiser for St Jude.
The next 30 day movement challenge begins this Sunday. As May 1 is this Sunday, you’ll receive 2 replays (from Saturday) and you’re invited to a zoom gathering at 2pm. Bring a friend for free when you sign up by the 30th. (yes, on the video I say 28th AND, as this information is only now reaching you, we’’ve extended the deadline ;-))
For $99 receive 30 classes, education, inspiration, 24 hour replays for every class. Helen is available before and after class for questions, discussions, shares. Sometimes behind the scenes info like teaching methodology, little tricks on how to learn the moves, playlists.
We cater to new to Nia participants all the way through to accomplish teachers, within our community there's a place for everybody, the month long challenge really is a collaborative Cooperative experience with a community of people all around the world
