Cold? Warm up with some Yoga tonight…

Join Commercial Park friends tonight as we welcome our new yoga instructor, Kristin. Class will be every Thursday from 6:30-7:30. A $5 donation helps keep this program strong. You can also write a check for the donation and receive a letter for a tax donation. Below is Kristin’s bio. There is always space in the class so please join in.

Kristin has only words of love when it comes to yoga. At heart she is a writer and artist, she blends her passion for language and painting into class. With an avid dance and running background, Kristin provides a fun yet physically challenging practice to students. She focuses on alignment and philosophy, guiding students toward their greatest potential. After years of competitive ballet dancing, Kristin wandered into a yoga studio with no idea of what to expect. She discovered that yoga was more than a physical workout and that it appeared in aspects of her life off the mat. Yoga is different for every person; for Kristin it is a way to find stillness in the mind, a challenge for the body, and a way to focus on and appreciate the present. Kristin is originally from Racine, Wisconsin. She has a fourteen-year-old brother who is in her opinion, the coolest kid. She is grateful to be able to share her passion for yoga and asks that we all live life to the fullest. “The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore” -Vincent Van Gogh
