In lieu of our class this evening I wanted to share this link to "15 Best Meditation and Mindfulness Apps for 2020".

I would love to challenge each of you to find one that resonates with you, download, and practice each day. Most have free mediations and/or trial and you can always upgrade. Share your thoughts and insights about which app you choose and your personal experience with mediation mindfulness.

Meditation can allow people to increase their focus during their everyday lives and can help with anxiety and stress ... something much needed during these difficult times.

Remember, this is a practice, so start small i.e., 3-5 minute meditations and work your way up, or if the short ones work best with your schedule, stick with that.

Can't wait to hear from all of you!

There is an app out there for everything these days; even for meditation and mindfulness. There are actually hundreds of these mindful apps available, promising to help users combat their anxiety, get better sleep, increase their focus, manage their weight, and more. But how do you know which one is...

Another update!

I had, and continue to have, the utmost confidence in the locations my fitness classes would be held in and would have continued teaching ... however an executive order has been issued. All gyms closed as of 3 PM today until March 30th.

Be safe and stay well!

Current Schedule to reflect change in location and/or cancelled classes:

Monday: Zumba TTS Fitness 6:30 - 7:15 PM
(until schools reopen)

Tuesday: STRONG by Zumba TTS Fitness 6:15 pm

Wednesday: Mixed Level Yoga CANCELLED
(until schools reopen)

Friday: Chair Yoga Gun Lake Fitness 9-10 AM.

Both gyms are adhering to CDC requirements to take additional steps for disinfecting high traffic areas. In yoga no blocks/straps will be used, no teacher assists, and no partnering.

I am watching the reports closely to determine if/when class cancellation is necessary and will post.

Stay calm, stay safe, and stay healthy!

Hello,

I am sure all of you know that yoga class has been cancelled, at least until the week of April 6th, and then there is spring break. Below is the email I received:

"All Community Education classes are cancelled through April 10 due Governor Whitmore's announcing the decision that all K-12 schools in the State of Michigan be closed until Monday, April 6. WUS has spring break the week of April 13, unless we are otherwise directed by the State of Michigan.

Here at WUS, all events, including all athletic practices and contests held on school grounds are cancelled until further notice. The Community Fitness Center and Pool will be closed as well. All of our facilities are closed to the public.

A partial refund will be issued next week for the classes that are cancelled."

Please look for your refund and I am hopeful that we can start back the second half of the session.

For those of you that are interested, Melissa will continue teaching @ Moon Medicine Therapeutics LLC Tuesdays 6:30-7:45 PM and TTS Fitness Saturdays 8 AM. Both locations are taking additional precautions to sanitize. You will need to bring your own blocks/straps, no teacher assists, and no partnering will be done in class.

Please be safe, stay healthy, and I hope to see you all soon!

Namaste'
