Yoga Rocks Sponsors Olympic Trainees



For a few months now we have been sponsoring a local woman who is training for the Olympic trials in Racewalking, Loretta Schuellein-McGovern. Some of you may know her and her world-champion husband, Dave, in our classes. This has been an exciting aspect to Yoga Rocks and we have kept it quiet so they can join in classes and receive the full yoga experience without distractions.

Their trials are SUNDAY, JULY 6 and are being filmed for a documentary film on Racewalking and their CAMERA CREW will be filming them at Yoga Rocks on WEDNESDAY NIGHT, June 25th during the 7:30 pm class!

I am counting on you to be at the studio to support this event. It is not going to highlight you doing yoga. It will be focused on them during the class.

Please support this event and Yoga Rocks by coming down and bringing along anyone you know who would like to participate in this event!

LET'S ALL SUPPORT OUR OLYMPIC ATHLETES BY BEING PRESENT FOR THIS EXTRAORDINARY OPPORTUNITY!

BEST OF LUCK LORETTA!

Kids Yogs Show - A Success!

On June 14, 2008, Yoga Rocks Kids held their First Annual Kids Yoga Showcase - the first one of its kind! All teachers were present for this exciting event: Miss Jeannine, Miss Jessica, Miss Alie, and Miss Dawn.





The kids practiced their special sequence of poses all year along with specific poses to showcase as their "solo event."







Parents and friends gathered to watch and at the end of the show were asked to participate in a special Three Wishes Peace Candle Circle together creating positive thoughts and affirmations for health, happiness, and peace for everyone.



We look forward to the Kids Yoga Program next year as Yoga Rocks Kids grows and expands into schools, daycare centers, preschools, the girl scouts, and more!
