Dear Yoga on the Hill Students, Friends, and Family,

After a period difficult consideration, we have decided to close our 609 Lyon Street location at the end of this year. We feel that it is right for me to devote my complete attention to our very young baby and our family.

It has been a wonderful two years and I know many of you will be disappointed that I will be unable to continue offering regular classes. I hope you will keep up your yoga practice with the help of the wealth of materials that the Iyengars and students of the Iyengars have created for that purpose. There is a thorough list on our website's resources page. Please let me know if you need some guidance with this and I will do my best to offer some helpful advice.

While I do not have immediate plans for classes in the future, I will be seeking ways to serve the community that is in balance with our family life. I will email any details about classes and workshops around town as they arise. If you do not currently receive emails from me and you would like to be notified about upcoming events and study opportunities, please join our mailing list through the "Contact" page.

Thank you for building our budding Iyengar Yoga community with your sincere study, support, and friendship. We wish you and your family peace and joy this holiday season.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Beaumont
