Dear Friends and Yogis,
Below is my spring schedule of yoga classes in Shadyside and Mt. Lebanon, including group classes, one kids’ class, one workshop, and one fundraiser. The group classes are special because they are taught in a cumulative fashion for optimal learning. There is an overall theme for each session, and a specific theme for each class. Philosophy is blended with physicality. Please feel free to forward to interested friends and family members. I hope to see you in class. You can visit my website for additional information. https://yogawithadrienne.wordpress.com
Best Wishes,
Adrienne
