Dear friend,
2015 is a big year for Street Yoga. We have a lot to look forward to, and are hopeful that you will be apart of it! We're starting off the year with a bang as KEXP's Community Partner. On February 6, KEXP is throwing a benefit concert with proceeds supporting Street Yoga! We hope you'll join us for a great night of music and fun.
In the next few months, we are hosting Hala Khouri, holding our first Advanced Yoga Service Training and offering our first public Renew. Revive. Retreat.! We created a blog post that highlights nine of the things we're most excited about for Street Yoga in 2015. We hope you'll join us as we embark on these great adventures, invest in relationships, and continue on our mission to make yoga accessible to everyone.
With great anticipation,
Jessica & Stephanie
