Just a quick schedule update for next week!

On Monday, August 10, there will be no Bend & Zen that morning because I'll be representing the Shala at the Boyle County Schools Support Squad Back-to-School event, welcoming our amazing teachers and staff as they kick off a new school year. If you're attending, stop by and say hello!

The rest of the week's classes are on as scheduled, and I'd love to practice with you.

• Tuesday, 4:00 PM – Bend & Zen
• Tuesday, 5:45 PM – Women's Circle
• Wednesday, 8:45 AM – Core & Pelvic Floor
• Friday, 9:30 AM – Core & Pelvic Floor

One more invitation...
Saturday, August 29 at 9:30 a.m. I'll be at Salted Wellness for a special Yoga + Singing Bowls in the Salt Room experience.

We'll spend 45 minutes moving gently, breathing deeply, and settling into the soothing sounds of the singing bowls while relaxing in the salt room. It's the perfect way to release the week and head into the weekend feeling a little lighter. To reserve your spot, go to www.saltedwellness.com

I hope you'll join me.

See you soon,
Francine

- Have you noticed that summer somehow became just as busy as the rest of the year? The calendar fills up, routines disappear, everyone needs something from you, and before you know it, you're moving from one thing to the next without ever truly pausing. That's exactly why we created Summer Serenity...

Before Summer Gets Busy, Take Four Hours for Yourself
Join us June 29 for our Summer Serenity Mini-Retreat at Historic Arcadia Farm.

If you've been running from one thing to the next, carrying tension in your shoulders, sleeping but not feeling rested, or simply feeling like you've been "on" for too long, this is your invitation to pause.

Together, we'll spend the morning stepping away from the noise and reconnecting with ourselves through:
• Somatic Yoga with Francine
• Healing Breathwork with Ben McAnly
• Reiki Experience and Individual Reiju Blessing by John Bustle
• A nourishing seasonal lunch prepared by Arcadia Farm
• Thoughtfully curated take-home gifts

This isn't about fixing yourself.

It's about creating space to exhale, reset your nervous system, and begin the summer season with more clarity, calm, and energy.

Early Bird Pricing ends June 10.
If you've been telling yourself you need a break, this is it.

- Life has a funny way of filling every available minute. Between work, family, errands, appointments, and everything else that lands on our plates, it can be easy to go days without taking a real pause. That's why I'm grateful for our community at the Shala. Here's what's happening next week: ✨ M...

🌿 Class Spotlight: Bend & Zen Hatha Monday and Tuesday🌿
So many people think yoga is about being able to touch your toes.
What I'm really interested in is helping you move better, feel better, and enjoy life in your body a little more.

If you've been meaning to start yoga—or come back to it—this is a wonderful place to begin.

- As we head into summer, I wanted to send a little reminder that the Shala is here for you. Not as another thing on your to-do list…but as a space to breathe a little deeper, move your body with intention, and reconnect with yourself for an hour. Every class and gathering is designed to help you ...

- You know that moment when you finally sit down at the end of the day… and realize your shoulders have been tense since breakfast? Your brain’s been hopping from one thing to the next. You’ve been taking care of everyone else. And somewhere along the way, you forgot to take a breath yourself....
