June 25, 2010 · Filed Under Announcements · Comment 

Jennifer Younk of balance yoga lounge will be leading Yoga in the Park at Gray’s Lake tomorrow morning at 9AM. The normally scheduled 9AM mixed level class held at the lounge is cancelled so that all can attend FREE yoga at Gray’s Lake! Class is held on the north shore of the lake where parking is available. Bring a towel to place under your mat, a bottle of water and layer on the sunscreen. There were approximately 200 enthusiastic yogis (of all ages and levels of ability) in attendance last week…let’s show Des Moines what a dedicated yoga community we have in Ankeny- see you there!

…even if we don’t experience white-out conditions for driving, the falling temperatures make it far too dangerous for anyone to be traveling to yoga. Visit our web calendar to select alternate classes you can attend in the coming week. Stay safe and warm. Namaste

12/09/09 Wednesday weekly workshop (7pm tonight)- CANCELLED.

12/10/09 Thursday morning essential class (8:30AM tomorrow)- CANCELLED.

Rather than risk life and limb for the meditation workshop at the lounge this evening, we challenge you to retreat to a quiet place within your home and spend some time in contemplation. Snowbound at home takes us outside of our normal weekly routine and can be just the jolt we need to rediscover ”being.” 

Take your time digging out the driveway tomorrow morning and we hope to see you Thursday afternoon at 4:45pm for mixed level class at the lounge!

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at the lounge,

Sandy, Jennifer, Patty, Linette, Annette and Mary
