SO LONG

STRETCH YOGA

With the end of our 2022 season rapidly approaching, I’d like to take this opportunity to gratefully thank Rockie Kainz for her willingness to be the demonstrator for the Yoga Stretch class this year.  We could have never “gone live” without her help.  Also, thanks to Flo Day for taking care of all the Yoga props and signs.  And a special thanks, also, to all the class members who were so supportive of me and the practice of Yoga.  Without all of you, I wouldn’t have been able to improve as rapidly as I have.  Thank you all.

We will be having our last classes of the season through Thursday, March 31st.  Several of you have asked about a video to use over the summer months.  With Neil Landry’s expertise, it will happen. When completed it will appear on the Camp Florida website. Expectations are that it will be very soon. 

Again, many thanks to all our Yoga lovers.  Have a safe, healthy and fun summer.  I look forward to seeing you next season.  Namaste’, Diane

CHAIR YOGA

How quickly the time has gone for this season here in Camp Florida. Our time to gather together for chair yoga twice a week grows short. I am planning April 1 as the last chair yoga this season. 

Once again this year there have been many positive comments on the different benefits that people are receiving from chair yoga. I do chair yoga as it helps me feel better but the positive comments from so many inspire me to keep going. I applaud everyone that has participated this year as the class has been more challenging and I hope more beneficial.

The good news though is that another video is in the works to share during our time away from Camp Florida. Many have inquired as to the possibility of having another video. I hope that many of you will find it helpful. Currently the video from last year is now available on the Camp Florida web site. I personally thank Neil Landry for sharing his time and knowledge to get this done.

 I encourage you to use the video or perhaps find a class when you get home so that you may continue to benefit from the yoga. Just remember not to do anything that causes any pain. Also remember many yoga moves can be modified to accommodate limitations if you have problems doing a movement.  Anyone is welcome to contact me with email if you have questions.  (linda.newtonll@gmail.com).  I will be looking forward to seeing you next season.

Many thanks to my husband Gary for all his help with signs, mats, chairs and just being there. Also to Nancy Snyder for her help in getting chairs and mats ready and to all the participants who put everything away after class. You are the ones that make doing this class so easy. Namaste’, Linda
