Have you ever wanted to try something out of your comfort zone? Well, this group of ladies did just that by participating in a Hula Hoop Make-and-Take Workshop at Leah’s farm! The best part? They can use their own hula hoop any time of the day they’d like and it’s a GREAT workout! And it doesn’t matter if your hips don’t swivel like “they used to” (ha) … it takes practice and once you get it, you get it! It’s really a fun workout! Looking to try it? Here’s a blog I found about the ways Hula Hooping can be a fun workout: https://www.silversneakers.com/blog/5-exercises-can-hula-hoops/

Getting tired of your same pieces of clothing? Or maybe you are like me and can’t find anything to wear in the stores OR maybe you are just avoiding stores (also kinda like I am doing …) … GREAT news! Did you know that we have a small collection of shirts for our friends? The material is very soft and “breathable” for those upcoming hot August days!

Now, maybe even more than ever, our lives are so unknown. One minute we are being told one thing, and the next, something changes. Keeping up with life these days is hard. But, what can make it easier is taking a step back. Take a step back, and take a moment for yourself. It’s always been said that in order to take care of others, you must take care of yourself FIRST – and that is so true right now. With all the “noise” going on around it, take a moment for yourself. Head to the park, minus your cell phone, or if you do have your cell phone, listen to soothing sounds. Didn’t make it to the ocean or beach this summer? That’s okay because here in Lorain County, we have beautiful Lake Erie – and have you witnessed a sunset over the lake? Oh, you have GOT TO GET OUT

THERE! Spending time outside now (with social distance measures in place, of course) can really have a calming effect — even listening to the rain is soothing!

And, in my world now, our form of serenity is watching our kitten, Jet. He is something else friends! He makes my husband and I laugh all the time – he rolls around, jumps at his shadow, chases the dog’s leash (while it is on the dog) and plays with TP rolls! He is a hoot!

And, if you feel the need to come together with like-minds wanting serenity – we have you covered at LaGrange Yoga!

Join Guided Meditation IN THE PARK with Heather!

Summer Veggies It’s nearing the end of July, and if you were lucky enough to start a garden AFTER the frost we had in May, you may be seeing your veggies starting to produce. A friend of mine posted her homemade pesto sauce the other day, which she then drizzled over shrimp and it looked DELISH, so I thought I’d go ahead and share a few recipe ideas for you. After all, those peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, herbs and other garden treats will be in abundance soon enough! But, don’t worry if you don’t have a garden, farm fresh veggie stands will soon be popping up too – so be sure to pay close attention to roadside stands this summer! Love to all, Jeannette ———————————————————————————— Recipes *** ***

I really want to thank those of you who have faithfully been coming to class, washing your hands, wearing your masks, and making sure our studio is following all of the safety precautions set by Governor DeWine. Wednesday’s update didn’t tell us to do anything differently, but it certainly stressed that we must continue to keep these safety measures in place. Thank you all in advance for staying on board! We must not become complacent. So many of you have commented on how much better you are doing with a little yoga and a little fitness back in your lives! We are happy to provide this to you!
That said, we need to know what those of you who are not coming to class need and want. We have reached out via emails and messages but haven’t gotten a lot of response. Please let us know how you are doing, if you plan to return and if so, when. Do you want more virtual classes? Do you need another month? Talk to us! We are here for you!
Annette has been doing free Zumba classes virtually on Zoom since March. I know that many of you have enjoyed these. How could you not? Annette is the bomb! However, she spends a lot of time and effort to bring these to you. Heck, she even pays a monthly fee to Zoom to provide the class. Please note that we can no longer provide free virtual classes and we ask that you please use your Zumba packages for these classes. That’s not all, starting on Sunday, July 19th, Annette will only being doing Virtual classes (same schedule). This will continue through the end of August, at which time she will reassess. Annette will be switching her site over and you be able to book your classes after 5 p.m. Friday, July 17. Thank you for understanding.
In other news, summer is in full swing – even if it is a little bit different kind of swing! We are planning to bring back the Hula Hoop Making Workshop perhaps next month and a hula hoop class or two your way soon. Let me know if you would be interested in these fun events!
Thanking you in advance for your input and wishing you all an enjoyable rest of your summer.
Love, Jeannette
