The Chair
by Galen Cranz
 Perhaps no other object of our daily environment has had the enduring cultural significance of the ever-present chair, unconsciously yet forcefully shaping the physical and social dimensions of our lives.

"Yoga for Cranky Hips", an online class is available!  Please visit this link to have a class with me any time you want!

 BTW, a portion of sales is donated to womens health organizations. I try to price items the same or lower than Amazon.  Make your purchase count for women.  We have raised over $125 since we began in January.  This year donations will go to

Women's Community Clinic in San Francisco


In an effort to promote nutritional and sustainable products, i have to share with you a link to the BEST chocolate on the planet at Gnosis Chocolate.  It is raw, healthy, no additives but healthy things and highly habit forming.

WHAT'S HAPPENING

"~ Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured. ~." -B.K.S. Iyengar


Greetings everyone,


Here is the kitten striking a Halloween pose.  Quincy

In this months newsletter, yet another article backed by research to ditch the chair!  I am in the market for a standing desk myself.  Will let you know when i find the perfect one.  In the girl talk section i have put a great eight minute video on how much toxins are in our everyday products, worth a watch (even for the guys). 


To my Bay Area students, it looks like Namaste on Lake Shore may open on December 1.  But i will keep you posted.

If you were thinking about attending the Yoga Journal conference in San Francisco, now is the time to act before prices go up.

Register by Nov 19th to save on the Yoga Journal Conference: San Francisco.  The five-day not to miss event offers 100+ yoga classes in all styles for all levels

with world famous teachers plus Special Events.  There is something for everyone! 

Check it out at www.yjevents.com

I am excited to team up with prominent Bay Area voice teacher, Cheryl Keller.  We will be teaching a Yoga and Voice weekend retreat on June 17-19.  Details to follow soon. 

For my pelvic floor gals in San Francisco i wanted to recommend a teacher with a full offering of classes that has dealt with her own issues in this area and has worked with many women with pelvic floor difficulties.

Lastly, i have added a pelvic floor workshop in Modesto on Saturday,  November 20 at Core Fitness on J Street.  The time is 9am - noon and the cost is $50.  Register with me.  This will be the last PF workshop in the Valley probably till mid next year.  So if you know anyone that has been thinking about going, please forward the info.

Be well, Leslie
