Avenues Yoga Workshop to Benefit Paceline Projects p/b Veloforma- A huge success!


We had a great turnout today at Avenues Yoga for our Yoga For Cyclists Workshop!  A sweet group of folks with a wide range of yoga experience came to our event this afternoon, and Sammy and Paul led an awesome class.  True to Avenues Yoga's philosophy of making yoga accessible to all and encouraging the type of practice where everyone is welcome regardless of their abilities, Sammy and Paul co-taught a phenomenal class which spoke to the first-timers, as well as the more seasoned yoga enthusiasts among us.  Our 2 hour class was informative, fun, and challenging.  Pretty sure we were all sweaty, smelly, and shaking with the effort as we did all sorts of heart and hip openers, core strengthening, and balance work with smiles on our faces.  (I love classes during which I'm encouraged to laugh and enjoy being present!)

It truly was a great time, everyone left feeling wonderful and happy.  I feel very fortunate to have a place like Avenues Yoga in my life.  I am so thankful to Erin, Paul, and Sammy for their support in our team and a huge thanks to all of you who joined us today.  We raised over $150 to benefit and grow our women's team.  You all rock!
