Community Yoga with Barb every Thursday at Noon

Have you ever gone to a Yoga class and found yourself completely lost?  You don't know which leg should go up or down?  Is the instructor calling out Yoga terminology that you don't understand as you watch the rest of the class moving with ease and harmony and then feel totally out of place???  Well, in this community class I will teach you all of the basics that will help you get the most out of the next class that you take at your gym, at a studio or anywhere where they offer yoga.

I have been practicing Yoga since I was pregnant with my first child over 12 years ago.  I started with Iyengar.   I've tried Bikram, Kundalini and Hot Yoga, but my favorite style is Vinyasa Flow, which is all about movement with breath.

The benefits of yoga are both for the mind and the body which is why I love it so much and why I completed my 200 hour teacher training at the end of last year.  So, come try it out with me.  Take your lunch break to learn the basic moves of Yoga.  If you already know the poses then come to refine your practice so that you know you are in the poses correctly.  I promise to make it both challenging and educational so that you can get the most out of the next Yoga class you do.

Email me directly if you'd like to join, this will be a small group class, I need a min of 5 to run it and I have a max of 8.

Have a great week and hope to see you soon.

Thank You letter to my Mom Tribe

To My Mom Tribe,


You know who you are.  For over a decade you've counseled me on every aspect of this Mom job. Your advice has always been free of charge and your words have always been uplifting.  

It feels like just yesterday that I ran into you at the Drs office with a baby in my tummy or in a Bjorn, we also caught up in the "Moms" room at the office and I remember when you expertly held my 8 week old so I could brush my hair & de-puff my eyes. 

Today we're flocked together in our mom zone on the sidelines of kids games, chatting mid Pilates to get the number for that math tutor and nodding off alongside the kiddos watching the latest release of a Pixar movie. 

Tomorrow, I'll see how your child has surpassed you in height and your oldest is driving the younger ones to school and that you are now caring for your own mom who needs you. 

So thank you, my Mom Tribe, for being part of my tribe yesterday, today & tomorrow. I really couldn't do all of this with out you. 

Happy Moms Day ❤️🙏
