Merry Christmas to our Yellow Dog Family! Namaste, The Instructors of YDS

Hi everyone, just a reminder that tree bulb gifts are due back by tomorrow. You can either bring them to class (this evening with Jeri), or to Escape Outdoors. Thanks for your support of this important initiative.

Our final Monday evening class of 2020 will be a gentle stretch. A moment of reflection and stillness amid the hustle and bustle of the season. Feel free to wear your jolliest red and green. We’ll flow at 6:15 pm. And there are two drop-in spots should anyone want to join!

Reminder Sculpt & Burn is on for tonight @ 6pm

Someone this week left this beautiful vest at the Studio. I noticed it Tuesday so it could have been at Monday or Tuesday’s class. Message Sherry Finney or Jeri Pero-Fraser to retrieve it.

To our Yellow Dog community: Due to the rising cases of COVID-19 and number of exposure sites in Halifax, we kindly ask that if you have recently traveled to the Central region, or if you’ve been in contact with someone who has, that you please not attend classes at the studio for the next 14 days. You will receive either a refund or future class credit for your remaining classes that fall within these two weeks. Please reach out to your session’s instructor to arrange either. Thank you for your understanding and assistance in keeping our community healthy and safe.

Just a reminder that tonight's Flow class is at 6:15. Here's one from the playlist....have a listen and "Like" if you "Like" and were unable to sit still to this one. :)... Sherry See more

A new 2 weeks All Levels Flow with Sherry and Meghan begins tomorrow and there are still a few spaces! 6:15 p.m. $20 for two weeks. Email [email protected] or message this page to register. ... Photo by Erin King

The reading from Monday night’s class. We’ve shared this poem before, but today felt fitting to do so again as we wake to a fresh blanket of snow - a gentle, but swift nudge into nature’s most restorative season. Enjoy! ^Meghan The winter solstice time is no longer celebrated as it once was, with the understanding that this is a period of descent and rest, of going within our homes, within ourselves, and taking in all that we have been through, and all that has passed in th...is year which is coming to a close. Like nature and the animal kingdom around us, this time of hibernation is so necessary for our tired limbs, and our burdened minds. Our modern culture teaches avoidance at a max at this time; lights, shopping, overworking, overspending, comfort food and consumerism. And yet, the natural tug to go inwards, as nearly all creatures are doing, is strong and the weather so bitter that people are left feeling that winter is hard. Because for those of us without burning fires and big festive families, it can be lonely and isolating. Whereas, in actual fact, winter is kind. She points us in her quiet soft way towards our inner self, towards this annual time of peace and reflection, embracing the darkness, and forgiving, accepting, and embracing goodbye the past year. Winter takes away the distractions and the buzz, and presents us with the perfect time to rest and withdraw, bringing fire and light to ourselves. .. and then, just around the corner, the new year will begin again. And, like a seed planted deep in the earth, we will all rise with renewed energy once again to dance in the sunlight. The changing seasons are truly gifts to the body and soul. A happy season to you all. By: Brigit Anna MacNeill Photo: Brittany MacLeod
