Dear Yogini's,

I enjoyed our weekend together. I think we can all agree Cindee is a great teacher. Guest teachers who are not E.R.Y.T.'s lead Hatha Yoga classes only.

The next time we meet our schedule will be as follows:

Friday: Guest Teacher Kathryn will lead a class, Kathryn is a former graduate of F.L.Y.
Saturday: Review Anatomy Test, Review for First Quarter Quiz, Etiquette Handout, Workbook worksheets, Yoga Alliance Code of Conduct, Light on Yoga worksheet Review, Yin Yoga Course, How to teach worksheet and application....
Sunday: Finish work that didn't get finished on Saturday. Continue how to teach. Guest teacher Sherry. Continue working on Teaching Techniques.

* If time allows we may watch the movie "Ashtanga N.Y."

Reminder : Yoga You in Cabot is having an open house this weekend. Please record hours if you go so I can count them.http://www.yogayoucabot.com/

If you know of any yoga teachers who would like to attend the "Seva Retreat" please let them know about it. You have an attachment on your email. It is also on the website.http://floatinglotusyoga.weebly.com/workshops-retreats-and-camps.html
Please call if you need anything.

Everything is included and it will take place when the trees should be beautiful.
Student teachers,staff, and the previous grads from F.L.Y. pay $135.
If you have a credit you can apply it to the retreat.
