Following the appointment of our new instructor, our classes will be moving to a slightly later start time of 10:30am, beginning shortly. This adjustment reflects our instructor's schedule, as they finish a prior commitment at 10:00am.

We completely understand that any change to a routine can take some getting used to, and we appreciate your patience and understanding during this transition. Your wellbeing and enjoyment of these classes remains our top priority.

We want to reassure you that this new time will be reviewed in the coming months, and your feedback is always welcome as we work to find what suits our community best.
