Hello, friends! We have an exciting update for our upcoming yoga class at 10 a.m. Friday, March 8th, which happens to fall on a no-school day for some districts: we’re switching locations to add a music class and offer a family discount so you can all join in the fun!
Initially we had planned for our yoga class with Dani from little om BIG OM to meet in a smaller space in Middleton, but our good friend and Kindermusik instructor Angie just generously offered the use of her new, large, and sunny space for The Wonder Studio in Verona. Angie will also be leading us in some playful songs before we get out our yoga mats with Dani for more fun and movement together. Yay!!
Spots are limited, so keep reading below for more information and register for this music + yoga combo class soon. You can also see our full schedule of events here.
A few more updates before we dive into this WONDERful collaboration:
- Spots for our Play Group with 4-C this Thursday just filled up, so if you’re looking for another free activity on Leap Day you can sign up to attend a Kindermusik class demo with Angie at one of our favorite spots: The Creekside Scoop in Cross Plains at 10:30 a.m. Feb. 29th! She has 4 spots left, and you can contact her directly to book via email. Sweet treats will be available for purchase after class. Interested in Kindermusik but can’t make the 2/29 or 3/8 events? Several classes at The Wonder Studio for ages 0-7 are enrolling, and you can check the schedule and request a trial here.
- Please join me in helping our featured nonprofit, Madison Area Donor Milk Alliance, fill their freezers by donating milk and/or sharing their story.
- You can still fill out our Spring Survey to help us determine the best days/locations to hold our future programs. Thanks!
