Looking ahead with Village Yoga
It's almost December! As we head into the winter months, be sure to make your health and well-being a priority. Village Yoga has several ways to help. We have classes on Zoom (with a limited number of students in the studio with prior permission). No time for a full class or just want to stretch out with a Warrior flow? Elizabeth Spahr has made an 8 minute standing yoga practice video - free to all (https://vimeo.com/483759534). To help keep you calm and centered, Elizabeth has made a 15 minute guided meditation video to help you through these stressful times (https://vimeo.com/484905500).
There are also two new videos on Vimeo - 30 minute Floor Yoga Practice and a 40 minute Yoga for Strength by Elizabeth. Both are available for one punch on your class card or a drop in fee and can be viewed as many times as you would like. In addition, Elizabeth has several other videos on Vimeo - 4 different Kripalu Gentle classes, Kripalu Moderate, Chair Yoga and Yoga Nidra. Jeannine Burgess has a Mindful Vinyasa and a Vigorous Vinyasa class available for purchase. If you know someone who would benefit from yoga, gift certificates are available.
And since a few people have asked, class cards will not be expiring at the end of the year.
Crystal Daige will be offering an Acupressure Yoga class for FREE Saturday Dec 5, 12 & 19, 9-10am. For more information, the class description is on our website (https://www.villageyogakennebunk.com/other). Here is the Zoom link to join the class. No need to sign up, just log in and enjoy. (Crystal will no longer be offering Yoga with Tai Chi.)

Village Yoga is happy to join with Spurling Fitness for the 3rd Annual Collection for Preble Street. Preble Street has asked me to collect underwear and gloves rather than socks this year. Thanks to the generosity of our students so far, I was able to purchase 400 pairs of new underwear for Preble Street Homeless Shelter! I will continue to take donations until December 19th. I am now asking for warm gloves and travel size toiletries since I was able to purchase so many pairs of underwear with early donations. You can drop off any donations or make a cash/check donation sent to Elizabeth Spahr at Village Yoga, 153 Port Rd. Kennebunk, ME. 04043. I will purchase items requested and deliver them to Preble Street. This year more people than ever are in need of their services.
Elizabeth Clarkson has received a diagnosis of breast cancer. She is fortunate to have noticed the lump very early and is being proactive with her health care. Elizabeth is blessed to be in such wonderful shape in both body and mind. She will be altering her teaching schedule as she needs to. Check the website for any class cancellations before logging in to take her Monday class. The alternating Thursday classes are cancelled, except for the Chair Yoga on the first Thursday of the month. Please keep Elizabeth C. in your thoughts with loving peace and healing energy.
As this season unfolds, remember to pause, take a breath and allow your heart to fill with gratitude.
