thanks + giving  | november 24 & 25   

THANKSgiving

  

we can't believe the thanksgiving holiday is right around the corner!  

  

in the spirit of thankful giving, we've put together two fantastic holiday classes!  

 

join us for either one, and bring two non-perishable food items and we'll donate $10 to the Redwood Empire Food Bank! come to both classes and we'll donate $30! because the food bank has $4 in spending power for every $1 we send, that really adds up!

...from the doghouse...    

wow! it's already been a great Fall...and with all the great new stuff we have going, it's about to get even better!  plus, on november 2, three dog yoga turns two years old!

 

on one hand, it's hard to believe that it's been that long...we're having so much fun, time has just flown by! on the other, i feel like i've been part of this community -- this family -- my entire life, and i am grateful every day to get to come to "work" to play with all of you.

 

some fun three dog facts, for those of you who like numbers:

 

- we now offer 28 classes a week

- that's about 2,200 combined sun salutations each week 

- each month, a KARMA PROJECT challenges you to take yoga off the mat 

- KARMA PROJECTS have sent more than $30,000 to good causes since we opened

- we have 8 committed staff members who show up 100% every day 

- we estimate that our classes instigate 150 giggles and 125 belly laughs a day.  

 

we can't wait to see what year three has in store...we're pretty sure it's gonna be AWESOME! 

 

love,   

a + d
