[03/26/20]   Blessed clients,

An update. I had figured this was coming, and it has. David Oakley's martial arts facility is going out of business; he has to vacate the premises on South King in the next few days. This means that I will not have space for my classes. For the next number of weeks or for however long the economic shutdown lasts, I will continue to hold free online classes. After that, I will be limited in my ability to teach in person classes until/if I find new space. If you have a package with me, I will refund the portion you have not used. I will keep you all updated if/when I look for new space, but that will obviously not be until things sort out in the broader economy, which could be months as we all know. I am very sad at this development; I know that many small businesses are facing the same conditions. Support them if you can.

Stay well!

Kate

P.S. Yes, I am still having my Zoom class tonight 😉. I need some yoga!

[03/20/20]   Blessed clients,

The Zoom application worked well enough last night that I am on board to use it for the regular Saturday class.

You need to download Zoom app and then to join the class, you just need to confirm an email for me -maybe in a private message. If you did that already this week, then we're all good. (That is, so long as I spell it right when I type it in). Once we all say hello, it's probably helpful that you go on mute so that only background noise comes from my end. Then it looks kind of like the opener to "The Brady Bunch" with all those heads floating around.

You might want to grab some makeshift props if you normally like props: scarves, books, pillows, etc. Or have Amazon drop some on your head this afternoon.

Stay well!

Kate

[03/19/20]   Blessed clients,

So, the Hangouts thing Tuesday night worked okay until the WiFi/website/laptop/server failure. I am going to try a new app tonight for the 6:45 Hatha class. It is a meeting app called Zoom. Unfortunately, to participate, you need the app, but the good news is you can delete the *##*@ thing afterwards and unsubscribe from the emails if it’s a fail.

If you’d like to participate, you should send me a private message with the email address you’d like to use. About ten minutes before, I’ll email you a link, you click on the link to pull it up in the app, and hopefully all of that will go smoothly and we’ll have class.

If it works well, I’ll try the same on Saturday & Sunday mornings.

Hope to “see” you soon,

Kate

[03/17/20]   Hi, clients. I am going to try a test online Yin/Yang class tonight during the regular 6:45 to 7:45 class time. I don't know how it will go, but I figured we could give it a shot for those of you who are game and afterwards decide how it went.

I plan to try a format called Google Hangouts. If you want to join the class you need to have a Google account. If you are using a phone, you will also need the Hangouts app; apparently laptops/computers/Ipads can just pull up the website. I would send you an email about ten minutes before and then you would join. It would be helpful if you confirm an email for me in a private message beforehand. If no one joins, no worries, I'll try again on Thursday night. Afterwards, we can evaluate.

Kate

[03/16/20]   Blessed clients, based on further developments over the weekend, I have decided to suspend classes until at least Friday, March 27th. There were numerous events over the weekend that led me to this decision, including the temporary suspension of fitness classes at Ida Lee and regular classes at my daughter’s dance studio, and an appeal from Yoga Alliance (yoga’s certifying body for teachers and teacher training programs) to halt in-person classes for now. If you are a regular client in my at home classes, we can probably arrange to do some practices. If I can figure out how to put a class or two online, I will try to do that (my technology-savvy kids being home!). In the meantime, stay well, and I will update you as soon as I can.
