an important announcement about our classes

hello yogis,

The time has come, as many of you have suspected it would, to make a big change in our class schedule. While we are beyond grateful for Zoom during the height of the pandemic and have loved the convenience that these classes have afforded you, our students, we are ready to pivot back to what we do best. Read on and never fear!

We are at our teaching best when we are seeing and feeling the energy of bodies in the room. Splitting the attention between Zoom and in-studio is hard work for your teacher, and does not give them the satisfaction that teaching in real life does.

New plan! Starting June 1st, we will be eliminating our hybrid classes, which will all become in-person classes. This does not mean that Zoom is going away. Rather, it means that we are going to make a clear distinction between in-studio and online classes. We know some of you rely on being able to practice at home to work with your lifestyle. And we want to support that.

Beginning in June, we will offer classes in-studio (as we always did in the before times) and several classes a week via Zoom. These classes can be taken live or received as a recording. OTY members will also have access to a library of Zoom classes recorded over the last year. To begin with, the library will have over 200 classes and we will continue to add a dozen or so classes per month. Non-members can access this online library through a one-time fee or become members for unlimited access to all OTY classes!

We appreciate your support these last 3 years. It's been hard, but you have made it manageable. We hope you will continue to support us as we do what feels best for our business, our teachers and our students.

G, A & the OTY Team
