“I believe in process. I believe in four seasons. I believe that winter’s tough, but spring’s coming. I believe that there’s a growing season. And I think that you realize that in life, you grow. You get better.” –Steve Southerland

  • Happy  March! Did you know that we are in the Chinese Year of the Monkey?! As we head into Spring, a time of growth, we can certainly say that it is The Twisted Monkey’s year! Because of your support and dedication, we continue to make changes and grow in ways that we hope will make you feel appreciated and more at home. A new studio sign, new paint, new floors, and still lots more to come (one step at a time), we hope you like it and just can’t thank you enough for supporting us…especially during the dust, class cancellations and schedule changes. Thank you. Now, let’s see all that the next month has in store….

  • More Workshops! We are excited to offer some more fun workshops this Spring. Also coming in April – Surfset Workshop with Ashley on Sunday, April 17th at 1pm…Save the date! We’ll also have a Meditation Workshop with Sarah in May and lots more. Details coming soon!
  • Kids’ Yoga in April! We are happy to announce a 4 week session of Kids Yoga on Saturdays, 10am-11am, for ages 6-10. Drop your little one off for a fun morning stretch as you head downstairs to sweat it out in our Hot Yoga class….or maybe go and run some local errands. 😉 Each week the instructor will lead the class through a different themed yoga adventure. Yoga is a great way to ensure young ones maintain flexibility. It’s also been shown to improve focus and concentration, sleep, and even athletic ability. You must pre-register for this class and a parent must be present the first day to complete a liability release form. Class dates: April 9th, 16th, 23rd and 30th. Cost is $45 for 4 sessions. To register: Click Here. (Please note that a refund will not be issued after the first class. If you cancel before the 1st class there will be a $2 processing fee. Thank you.)
  • Help Save Nepal! Just a reminder that we sell water bottles in exchange for at least $1 donation that goes to Nepal Kids. Please take a moment to read about this cause and a Go Fund Me campaign spearheaded by one of our very own members, Mike Cassidy. Your donations, big or small, can really make a world of difference. To join Mike in helping to save Nepal: Click Here. Namaste.

Stay Up-to-Date…
