The count down to 2015 is on, and what a year it's been! Has it been as epic for you as it has been for us? For the yoga studio it has been unforgettable. Our community came together at the Yogathon to support our teacher Jane Farries. The event was powerful and inspiring and the impact it had on Jane's life and her recovery was profound. We did some yoga outside at Hatley Castle, as well as by the beach as part of an outdoor art festival and we decided to do much more of that in 2015. We had a couple of excellent Yoga Challenge events this year which were well attended. We won the Fittest Business Award, a people's choice award organised through the Westshore Chamber of Commerce, and then we MOVED into our brand new location on Wilfert Road last month. We could not have done any of it without a lot of help from our teachers, members and friends. This month we are settling happily into our new home. It's fun to see the reactions when students arrive for class at the new studio for the first time. Thank you for your support, lovely gifts and cards, and as well for your patience during the transition period. It's been a lot of hard work and it's all been worth it! We owe special thanks to Anne-Marie Bujold, Tom McLean, Patrick Moulden, Tory Feldman, Carole Gosse, Peter Nurse, Chant ale Taillefer and Richard Vowles for the extra sweat, time and energy during the move. Thank you to everyone who volunteered, offered to help and shared an encouraging word. Our Partner Yoga Workshop is this Sunday from 12:30pm to 2:30pm. All regularly scheduled classes are running without interruption. There are only a few spots left. If you want to join us it's best to purchase your spot online or come in to the studio.

We invite you to our New Year's Eve Social and hope you can make it. We have some great fun scheduled including sharing good food, good music throughout the event, and we have the wildly talented magician Eric Bedard scheduled for a magic show for all ages. Everyone is welcome! We would love to see you there. Bring along family, friends and anyone who you think would like to come, there is lots of space! More details are below.
Thank you in advance for reading this December Hotsheet. Jacqueline, John and all of us at BYW wish you and yours a joy-filled and blessed holiday season.
