Hello, Cedar River Yoga Students!

"December, being the last month of the year, cannot help but make us think of what is to come." — Fennel Hudson

That time of year is upon us; love it or hate it - - Winter has arrived. As we prepare for a season of Holidays, traditions, transitions, & milestones, (we're 1 year old!) we are reminded to build our strength as stability & foundation for what’s on the horizon and tend the fire inside to keep energized. May we also find the light in the darker days, warmth in chilly weather, and comforting resolve to end a year & signal in a new one. Please enjoy classes, the studio, and our many special workshops, events, sales, & offerings this month to help bring you peace & joy.

All our gratitude & love,

the Jessic/kas
