Hi! I am volunteering for a fun local event next Sunday, August 16th (9:30-11:00 am) -- Flow Through Time: A Yoga Fundraiser for the Bytown Museum. If you like gentle yoga, I would love to see/meet some of you there! Tickets are $45 per person (includes a $30 tax receipt!!), with all proceeds supporting the Bytown Museum’s preservation and programming initiatives. Full disclosure: I am Vice-Chair of the museum's Board of Directors, and I will be teaching the class 😉 It's a great way to (re)discover this wonderful local museum, meet some new people, and enjoy yoga in one of our city's most scenic spots! There will be lemonade, snacks and door prizes.
