Free Day of Yoga - Monday!

Dirt Cheap Yoga's regularly scheduled Monday classes at Reverchon and Kidd Springs will be canceled, but you have about 100 other places to Down-Dog for FREE on Monday, September 6th! Check out the DFW Free Day of Yoga website for a full schedule, class descriptions and map.

DCY Instructor Jon McCurry and DCY Board Member Kathleen Hale will be offering two class times on Monday: 9:00am with Jon and 11:00am with Kathleen at St. Mark's Presbyterian Church [map].

Yoga Baby

Shoulder stand in utero.

This isn't just any yoga babe, this is former DCY Manager, Lee Wedeberg's, tiny yogi. You may remember Lee as an instructor at the Samuel Grand location and she also worked hard to keep us afloat while I was away, living in Kuwait all those years. We crossed paths briefly last summer as I returned to America and she ventured to France for culinary school.

Lee is still involved with DCY on the Board of Directors - welcome back Lee! And we welcome Baby Wedeberg whenever he or she makes the big entrance into the world.

Throw Some 'Bows! Happy Hour Thursday, Aug 19

Think yogis can't yoga and have fun too? Then you don't know the folks of DCY very well... Come to the next Dirt Cheap Yoga Happy Hour! Sip a cocktail, watch some buzzy yoga party tricks (maybe try one yourself), win prizes, and/or win cash!

Thursday, August 19th from 5-8pm The Dirties will be at The Elbow Room (3010 Gaston, Dallas TX). Now, we're not just blowing off steam, this is a serious fundraiser... (as serious as Eagle pose). We'll be raffling off a 90 minute massage gift certificate - donated by massage therapist and DCY Instructor, Celeste Cooper, of the Kidd Springs location, one DCY 8-class pack, and one DCY 16-class pack, plus a cash raffle. Not bad for a Thursday night, right?

'Cuz Boys Need da Yoga too

Came across this book today. Thought it was very Dirty (as in DCY Dirty).

Would you, or someone you know, be interested in a "Dude" Cheap Yoga class? A yoga session focused on larger mass, tighter hams, bulkier shoulders with brusque verbiage? Let Gina know. Or just post a comment on this blog post.

Titans of Yoga

Found this in my inbox this week and had to share. And organization called, National Yoga Month, created a documentary, a collection of 25 modern yoga masters. These are the people who have shaped yoga as we know it. This is our generation of gurus and I'll bet that you've attended workshops with some of them when they've come through Dallas. See what they have to say about life, yoga, their mission and why we're all on this big ball together.

Watch the trailer.

(Left to right: Ashley, Jessica, Meredith, and Taylor)"][/caption] Congratulations are due to Meredith McQuiston on completing her 200 hour teacher training with the Dallas Yoga Center. This Saturday she performed her final test and rite of passage as a yoga instructor: The certification class.


She passed with many flying colors and when asked, "What's next?" replied simply. "A well deserved nap." Bravo, Lady M. Bravo.

Come experience the natural enthusiasm of Meredith's class at Dirt Cheap Yoga's Oak Cliff location.
