WHAT WILL LIFE THROW OUR WAY?
This has been quite the year so far. We are all experiencing the unsual. I, for one, am feeling more united with my fellow humans while being more separated. There is much to ponder these days. The ordering of ones everyday life is a bit topsy turvy. Getting to the specific, I have set dates for upcoming spring 2021 classes in hopes that some normalcy will prevail. With small classes we should, if necessary, be able to siocial distance in this large studio, while wearing masks. I would venture to start classes sooner but will be recovering from rotator cuff surgery through the end of this year. So please bear with me. Check this webpage again to see if new sessions have been added. Hoping we can throw again soon. Blessings, Rene.
