AUGUST NEWS
 
!! WOWZA !!

We are tickled and grateful to have been named 2016 Best Yoga Center by the readers of The Cary News. Three years ago, I shipped the contents of my NYC apartment in a U-Box, rented an SUV, and drove with my two cats to North Carolina to build Republic of Yoga. From installing the floors with my parents, to teaching my first class here, meeting and greeting each student who walked through the door, it has been a labor of love, and a joy. To my parents Bob & Sandra, Frank & Joanie, I couldn't have done it without you. To my business partners, thank you for believing in us. To our amazing staff: Alisha, Brenda, Catherine, Jaime, Keegan, Keri, Lindsay, Melissa, Micha, Miriam, Wade and Zora, and the incredible teachers who have shared their talents along the way, thank you for all. To our beautiful, dedicated and supportive community, THANK YOU!! It's been a privilege to serve you, grow with you, and to watch you blossom. 
 
With all my love and gratitude,
Nicole

MALA WORKSHOP  
WITH MELISSA & ISABELLA VERDICCHIO

Have you ever wondered how or why to use a Mala?  Join Isabella and her mother Melissa Verdicchio for a workshop and yoga class, and learn how! In this session, you will make a Mala bracelet for which you will create an intention, whether it be getting ready for the school year, or reaching your goals for the future. Also known as prayer beads, rosary beads, or worry beads, Mala beads are used in many cultures as part of spiritual practice, and the practice of chanting a mantra is one of the easiest forms of meditation. Like prayer and affirmation, the repetition of a mantra can increase concentration, improve memory and focus, build self-confidence and self empowerment, reduce stress and balance the emotions. Open to all, especially teen and 'tweens. $35

EVENING SATSANG: MUSIC & MEDITATION
WITH JARRET SCOTT
WEDNESDAYS 8:00-9:15PM
 
Satsang is a gathering of like-minded individuals--literally, a gathering of truth-seekers. Meet Jarret Scott and build our community while steeping ourselves in the ancient practices of Bhakti yoga and stilling the mind.  We'll begin by checking in, allowing us to hear one another and clear our hearts and minds, followed by kirtan to prime the heart, then simply ease right into meditation. These practices are gentle and sweet and absolutely for beginners and seasoned meditators alike.

NEW: Regular class pricing applies--you may sign in with your class pack, or drop in for $16!
