As most of you know, my yoga philosophy is that our practice on the mat is bigger than the pose and our practice off the mat is bigger than ourselves... especially now. If we truly are going to practice our yoga off the mat, then that means making decisions that, though maybe inconvenient, are for the greater good of our community. We are all connected. If there has ever been a time to practice our yoga, it is now.
So it is with a heavy heart that I announce that March 16th will be the last day of live classes for this month. We are currently planning to reopen on April 1st.
I am sure you have a lot of questions. So....
Monthly Passes and Class Passes:
Most of you know that North Texas Yoga supports itself through our members. I am passionate about continuing to share the practice and my goal is to still have a studio for you to come to after all of this is said and done.
Monthly Unlimited Members: If you are in a position where you can continue your monthly payments as scheduled, it would be extremely appreciated. When we get back to normal and open back up, I will make any needed adjustments - extensions, credits, free months. All adjustments will be "staggered" to ease the effects and to continue to keep the studio viable. If you are not able to continue your payments, absolutely no problem and I completely understand. I will put your pass on hold and reactivate it when we open. Please email me if you would like me to pause your membership until the 1st of April.
10 Class Passes: If you have a 10 class card, your expiration date will be adjusted accordingly. The adjustments will be made once we open back up. If you had planned to purchase a new 10 class pass once your current one expires and still choose to do so to support the studio, your expiration date will be extended. Your new pass does not activate until your first use.
Other Ways to Support the Studio:
Purchasing a gift certificate for yourself is another way to support the studio. Purchase now and use it later! You can purchase one through our website.
Facebook Group for Home Practice:
A Facebook group has been created for those of you who are current monthly members or class cardholders. Our teachers will livestream our regular schedule of classes from their home practice spaces or from the studio. Live classes should be up and running by Wednesday morning. I'll also be recording meditations and yoga nidra practices for you to join in on. You can join the group at the link below:
North Texas Yoga Facebook Group
I highly recommend joining the group. I realize not everyone is on Facebook. However, you can easily create an account just to join the group and not have to participate in any of the other "socializing".
If you would like to borrow any props from the studio to support you in your home practice, please email me and we can make arrangements to get props to you.
I am committed to staying in touch throughout this. As I have said before, our community is what makes North Texas Yoga special. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. We are in this together. Please be safe.
Namaste,
Laura, along with Faith, Jennifer, Johanna, Katie, and Sonia
