For the past three years I have been planning and taking prerequisite classes in preparation for a very special educational opportunity. I am thrilled to let you know that as of August 19, 2024 I will be a student for the Physical Therapy Assistant school at Mesa College. The program is two years, and at the end I will have my AA, a certificate, and once I pass, a license to be a PTA! This is the next big step in my journey of being a movement professional and I could not be more thrilled (unless it was free!).
What that means is there are BIG changes to my teaching schedule.
- For the Copley-Price YMCA, Christine Seliger will be taking over the Active (8:30AM) and Gentle (9:30AM) Yoga classes on Tuesdays starting August 6. I will continue teaching the Sunday 9:30-10:45 class as long as they are willing to have me, as well as being available for Personal Training. We are also doing a special SUNSET YOGA on August 16 from 6-8PM and again on October 11 6-8PM. I think a Friday night deep stretch will be just what the doctor (PT) ordered after a week of school! Check out flyers at the Copley YMCA for event details.
- For Monday Chair Yoga in Bonita, MaryElen will work her magic starting in August.
- For Serra Mesa on Tuesdays, Rashna will grace us with her amazing skills until the end of September. The Library is working on a permanent replacement.
- La Mesa Chair Yoga Wednesdays will also be led by Rashna starting August 1.
- San Carlos Kids on Wednesdays will be led by MaryElen through end of September. The library is working on an approved replacement.
- Friday Lemon Grove and Skyline Hills will still be taught by ME at least until December (when I"ll get my schedule for the new semester).
I know this is a big change, but what is life, but an ever-changing chain of events that we can choose to enjoy, or resist. For my sake, I'm trying to enjoy and marvel at the wonder of all the opportunities bestowed upon me.
I have such big feelings about "leaving" or "abandoning" all these classes after we've taken years to get ot know one another, but I truly hope that this new incarnation, with new instructors, will help all of you on your journeys to wellness.
Please reach out with any questions; I'm just a button click away!
