January and February Calendars Posted

Please click on the link in the upper right hand corner of this page to see the schedule for January and February. You can also scroll to the bottom of this page to see an embedded weekly schedule.

Many Breathing Room Practitioners have pointed out that the calendar link comes up in Arabic. We've looked for a solution to this...and didn't find one. Essentially, Google has decided that everyone opening one of its pages in Egypt MUST want to read it in Arabic. Other than not using Google products (or learning how to read Arabic), if you have a Google account it is possible to change the default settings (by navigating the Arabic links) and making sure you are logged in to your account before you view the calendar. In any event, the scheduling information itself should always be in English. Just keep in mind that the weekly schedule reads from right to left and starts the week with Sunday.


Have a happy and healthy new year - TBR

A Glance into the New Year

The New Year can be a very productive time. A time when we take time to reflect on the past and begin to look towards the future. Of course in yoga we try to stay in the moment, but it's never surprising that there is a renewed enthusiasm for our personal yoga practice. To help you craft your vision of the New Year we are posting our schedule for January and February (as we see it thus far). There may be additional classes offered, new instructors joining The Breathing Room, or new styles of yoga offered, but the basic schedule is set and ready to go. Classes officially begin again on Friday, January 8th at 5pm.

December Schedule and Announcements

Season's Greetings from The Breathing Room! We hope that everyone had a peaceful and enjoyable Eid.

December is here and although it is a short month of classes - there is a lot to enjoy. You will find the full calendar of classes by clicking the link to the right.

The studio will be officially closed from Dec. 20th - Jan. 8th. But unofficially, the instructors who are around are offering classes to students who voice an interest in practicing over the holiday break.

If you have a class/instructor that you practice with regularly, check to see if they are offering classes and exchange phone numbers. This way you can contact each other directly.

Another option would be to send us an email with your name,phone number, and the message - "I'm interested in practicing over the holiday, please call me when you are offering classes." We will make sure that the message gets to all instructors offering classes.

The Yoga Hotline will be updated weekly but we will not be posting classes on the blog. (*Note - we had some technical glitches with the hotline last month - apologies for any inconvenience, hopefully we have solved the problem)

Our big event for the month is of course the Jivamukti workshop with David and Sharon. The course is full, but we are taking a look to see if we can fit more mats in the room. If your are interested, DO put your name on the waiting list. There is a good chance that we will be able to involve another five students. We are looking forward to this event and hope to accommodate as many participants as we can.

Thanks for a great 2009! Looking forward to what 2010 has to offer.
May this holiday season be filled with goodness and light.
The Breathing Room
