Greetings Visana Yogis,

The time has come for us to say good-bye to the beautiful studio that has been a sanctuary for the practice of yoga, community building, meditation, mindfulness groups and so many other things over the last 13+ years. I want to thank everyone who has been a part of our success over the years and recently during the pandemic

Please come join our sangha for an evening of sharing memories
and finding closure for this part of our yoga journey.

Friday October 22nd at 5pm,
all vaccinated students who want to join together for one final gathering
are invited to a celebration at the studio.

We will begin with a meditation together.

Following the meditation, we can share our experiences and what yoga and practicing together has meant to us.

Weather permitting, we will have finger foods and beverages on the deck for the sunset.

Let's make this gathering a celebration of life and yoga!

I honor all of the students who have chosen not to get a vaccination.
Hopefully one day we can all practice together again.

Peace and blessings,
Lynn, Babs, Karli and Christine

Greetings Yogis,

I will be away next week.
Karli will be teaching a combined Happy Adult/All Levels class On Monday Sept 27th from 1130-1245.
Thursday Sept 30th we will combine her All Levels class and the Happy Adult class from 10-1115.

All other class will occur as scheduled.

If anyone has pictures from yoga classes or events over the years I would love to have them. I am putting together a video of Visana Yoga over the years. We are planning a celebration of the studio toward the end of October. Details to follow.

Thank you for your support through the years and over this last month of yoga in the studio.
Namaste, Lynn

Dear Visana Yogis,

It is with great sadness that I want to let you know that I have made the decision to close the studio. We have been dealing with the pandemic for 18 months now. We are not able to support the overhead it takes to have a lease without students in the studio. Most of our current students are still on zoom. We have lost over half of our original students. Teaching and being a student on zoom are not the same experience as being together in person. The community, comradery, personal instruction and fun we had when we were in the studio is missing.
Visana Yoga is nearing 13 years in business. In this time so many good things have been cultivated in our community and for us as individuals. Workshops, meditation, music events, art walks, special yoga teachings, guest teachers, beach parties and our 10-year anniversary celebration are just a few of the fun times we had together.

I don't know what is next. We will still have yoga in Brookings, it just may look different.
Each teacher may have a different way of moving forward in this challenging time.

Impermanence, life unfolding and changing; something we are all familiar with.

My plan is to close at the end of October. After October 1st we will take no money for classes but let people use up their passes and then come for no charge till the end of the month. There will be no refunds so please come as much as you can in the next 5 weeks.

I have a heavy heart. I have so much gratitude to you all and what we created and sustained all these years.

With so much love, Lynn,
and your beloved teachers, Babs, Karli and Christine
