Dear fellow yogis of the Southeast region!

I hope you are all well, safe, and healthy.

First of all, I am so happy about the big turn out we had at the three free workshops in October. Thank you to Suzie Muchnick, Susan Marcus, and Tricia Amheiser for your teachings, commitment, and love shared with our community. Special thanks to Sara Agelasto for doing a great job managing this benefit.

As part of our commitment to this community and to serve it to the best of our capabilities, members of the board had the chance to attend a Training called Board Fundamentals with WNV Nonprofit Pathways that offered us 3 hours of free coaching. We found it very helpful and we will be implementing some of their suggestions aimed to be more efficient and provide greater value to our members. We are working to be a stronger Board of Directors with a clear, strategic annual plan.

We will have our last Board meeting of the year on November 15th. We are so glad to welcome new board members. Please read their stories and vote for them in the eblast that was sent our earlier in the week. Thank you for your support.

Don't forget to check the IYASE website for all the wonderful workshop offerings happening in November.

Much love and Namaste,

Mariana Scotti

So many wonderful teachers are offering their classes and workshops online. We thought we would see just how many classes everyone is taking. Please take a moment to let us know how you're doing:

Here is a list of some upcoming events you don't want to miss. To keep up-to-date on offerings, visit the IYASE EVENTS page regularly.

Rebecca Lerner, Level 4 CIYT, will guide us on a path of yogic transformation.

Through Asana and Pranayama, we’ll deepen our capacity for reflection and awaken gratitude and devotion in our practice. This multi-level class will cover standing, inversions, seated poses, and savasana with pranayama.

In these classes we will examine the “intermediate” stages of asana, their significant contribution toward the ”final” asana, and then the transition from doing the asana to being in it. Open to students of all levels.

Brian Hogencamp, CIYT Level 3, has been teaching full-time since 2004 and travels annually to India for study with the Iyengar family.

Salamba Sarvangasana, Shoulder Stand is considered as the "Queen Of Asanas". This workshop will help you to learn, improve and refine your Shoulder Stand. Learn More and Register for the workshop.
