August Newsletter

Kurt teaches in Richardson!
Monday mornings and Tuesday afternoons Kurt now teaches in Richardson!
Greetings!
OK, it is August and things are heating up inside and outside APY studios!

This month, I am picking up classes in Richardson. Erica is back in Richardson and Dallas; Rockwall two great workshops and Dallas is hosting an APY 200-hour Instructor certification course and the first ever APY Intensive!

You may have noticed the new website. We have most of the kinks worked out. Look for updated health tips, videos, contests and testimonials along with event reminders and class updates. My goal is to have fresh content up there once a week!

Kurt is teaching at APY Richardson!

After many kind requests I have adjusted my schedule to pick up two classes at APY Richardson. Now the good people of Richardson can start off their week with me by coming to my 8:30 a.m. Monday class or twist it out on Tuesdays at my 5:15 p.m. class.

All my Dallas students are more than welcome to make the short 10-minute trek up to APY Richardson. If you haven't practiced there, you really might enjoy its intimate atmosphere. And I love teaching on the beautiful second story balcony when weather permits!

Featured Teacher - Lisa Coyle

Lisa
I regret to say that July 30th was my first class with Lisa and will go down as one of my best yoga class experiences ever. Lisa has become Richardson's most popular instructor and now I know exactly why! With a sincere take on what yoga is really about, combined with strength, flow, knowledge and teaching experience, I urge all practitioners and instructors to get into her class.

Her dedication to her craft and family never ceases to amaze me.
APY is truly grateful to have you, Lisa!

Jayme, APY Senior Instructor & Director of Operations.

Tear Down the Wall
I probably date myself a little here with the Pink Floyd reference; however, these words and this principle were my anthem for many years. I suspect many others, at one time during their life, have hid behind a metaphoric wall of one sort or another. I do believe there are times when these defenses are helpful and even necessary. Like many others, while I was growing up, I discovered that the wondrous world I was exploring could turn very painful. Read more...
