Dear Friends and Family,
I hope you are doing well and enjoyed your Thanksgiving holiday weekend!
I am happy to share with you that my “Tai Chi Easy™/ Chair Yoga” fusion class returns to Integral Yoga Institute this Winter 2020. Come to any one or all of the classes; no prior experience is needed! Description and class dates are on my website, and as always, feel free to email me any questions. Hope to see you and your friends there!

Additionally, I will be volunteer gift wrapping at Book Culture (a charming book and gift store) on Columbus Avenue at 81-82 streets this holiday season in order to raise funds and awareness for my non-profit organization and volunteer work (http://www.west80s.org ), and to encourage support of our mom and pop stores. We have all observed the sad state of our NYC storefronts; it seems as if every block has at least two empty storefronts these days, and many blocks are almost completely barren. Not only does this create a sight of urban blight, but it also results in less appealing urban conditions (darker sidewalks, increased litter, reduced sense of community, fewer jobs, loss of neighborhood character and uniqueness, to name a few. So when we shop local, we not only help that small business but we are helping our community as well!
I enjoy volunteering at Book Culture, which in addition to books, sells household products, scarves, hats, handbags, calendars, decorative items, Christmas tree ornaments, and more! Please shop local, shop small, and come visit me at Book Culture during these times: Monday: December 23 (11 am – 4 pm) Monday: December 23 (4 – 9 pm) Tuesdays: December 3, 17 and 24 (11 am – 4 pm) Tuesday: December 24 (4 – 9 pm) Thursday: December 19 (4 – 9 pm) Fridays: December 13 and 20 (11 am – 4 pm) A reminder that all gift wrapping paper when done, can be re-used or should be recycled! |

This past Tuesday night, my community work was honored at a local, innovative arts center housed in a beautiful landmarked church on the UWS – The Center at West Park https://www.centeratwestpark.org/ . The funds raised at their Gala help pay for structural repairs to their historic building. I am a big fan of their work that brings affordable, high quality performing arts to my neighborhood and am honored to be a part of their Benefit this year. Hoping you can join me in supporting their mission! To contribute, see https://secure.givelively.org/event/center-at-west-park/3rd-annual-glitz-grit-benefit?mc_cid=6d70fbae85&mc_eid=aaab25eb73
