Wow, what a week! We've had so many yogis coming in the doors this week after welcoming Christine Cipra and Jackie Huxel from Oak Park Yoga. 

 Everybody's talking about the change of having Oak Park Yoga closing and having to find a new yoga studio. This can be a huge change for people.

Hank started off by explaining what she was going to do and how to be prepared for the gongs and singing bowls. She then gave us different oils to put ...
