Hello internet,

I've got a couple things cooking:

- In honor of DC Yoga Week, my prenatal yoga class at Circle Yoga in Chevy Chase is $5 on Saturday, May 21 at 11:30 a.m.

- I'll be back at Simon Says Yoga this summer! While Lika Elwood is away, I'll cover her Thursday evening beginners (6:30 p.m.) and mixed level vinyasa (7:45 p.m.) classes June 30 - July 14.  

- I'm still working on creating service opportunities for yogis to connect off the mat this summer. Got a few minutes? Take a look at my intention outline and give feedback through the form at the bottom of the page about what kinds of seva (selfless service) you would like to take part in with me! So far, I've co-hosted a clothing swap at Yoga NoMa benefitting Martha's Table and Interfaith Works, and made pottery at the Corcoran Ceramics Studio (under the encouraging eye of GWU professor Robert Devers) that was sold at fundraisers for So Others Might Eat. Many thanks to my friends (old and new) and family who have come out and joined in! Want to know about the next event? Drop me a line at emily.star.yoga@gmail.com and I'll make sure you're in the know.

- Last but not least, here's a NSFY (not safe for yoga) playlist of tunes that are too loud, fast, wordy or whatever for class, but too good not to share with you. Enjoy!
