Thank you to Birmingham Public Library system for continuing to support Free Chair Yoga at Avondale Library: every first & third Wednesday. So, my next class there is Wednesday Sept 2🌻

This September, I'm happy to be offering six to seven weekly Chair Yoga classes that are open to the public (some free - some via membership - some for a fee). I hope you / someone you love can make time to build a consistent yoga practice into your weekly routine. Or just come when you can🌻

Big thanks to Avondale Library - Birmingham Public Library System, Hoover Public Library, Hoover, Alabama, and Saint Luke's Episcopal Church for supporting me in offering 📣THIRTEEN FREE CHAIR YOGA CLASSES📣 this month. Yoga should be accessible to every body, and that includes being financially accessible. So, again, thank you!

Like many (most? all?) of you, I've had Dolly on my mind. These words from a friend of mine say best what I've been thinking:

"Dolly,
Your most important work may be this week when people around the country across generations, races, economic strata, even (maybe, especially) political stripes — come together to mourn you.
One last gift from the self-made, love everybody, mountain girl.
We will all always love you."
