Salutations!        

     One year ago, I put out the premier YogaBlaze newsletter.  I wrote then about riding the edges of fear & excitement as I saw my little egg of an idea come to fruition. 
 
     And now, at age 1, I look at my bright-eyed toddler of a newsletter and am honored to watch our community come together - coaxing us all to stand, take those first steps - and as I said last month, strut our yoga!  
 
A BIG THANK YOU to these YogaBlaze members...
      For believing in the YogaBlaze vision - "to inform, connect & wake-up all touched by yoga".  May we continue to support your awakening in Yoga.
