| This has been a scary
and tenuous time for the Truckee studio, and ultimately the studio,
Bikram Yoga Sierra's future and protecting our community became our
highest priority, whatever the cost.
Despite the positive energy that is poured into our studios daily by
each of you, we found ourselves losing that valuable energy and our
own resources. A choice had to be made. Being Yogis, we chose to call
upon our English bulldog determination and our Bengal tiger strength
to turn an unexpected and unforeseen negative situation into an
opportunity for change.
The Truckee studio, on the one hand, is just a
physical "place" and is "replaceable." Yet on the other hand, it is a
very special place in my heart and spirit, and I know and feel that it
is in each of yours as well. For me, it's where it started, where the
education started, then love, hope and eventually faith. It's where
the courage developed to grow, to offer more to each of you. Maybe
it's not what we had hoped for, but it is what the universe has
provided.
With a heavy heart on one hand and deep
gratitude on the other, we have chosen to vacate this space by
midnight on July 30th, and focus on preparing our new location. We are
projecting up to a 4-week delay in business, with an interim schedule
to be announced.
Again Friday, July
30th will be our LAST day of business in the current location.
That has not changed, unless you hear it from us directly.
We are terribly sorry for any inconvenience that this causes you.
We hope that you will utilize the Reno
location, and that you will enjoy some variety in our Truckee classes
as we find interim space, (yoga on the lake?) and while we build our
new sacred space. Of course, we will extend all packages for the time
we do not have a functional Bikram yoga room.
Please allow me the time to be grateful in all
of this:
To our teachers and staff THANK YOU, thank you
for understanding, for covering for me when I needed to focus on
business decisions more and yoga less, for keeping our studios
peaceful, even amidst chaos. For loving what you do and for loving our
studios "bones to skin, inside-out, all-over." We are family!
To our Community-Students and vendors, Thank
you for all of your unbelievable loving support that you have given to
me, Cam and our children the last several months. WOW!! The love is so
apparent.
I also have to thank my "Attorneys at Zen"-
Cameron Bordner and Rich Molsby. Cam and Rich, I dedicate the
brilliance of Elton John (my favorite) to you both..."Someone Saved My
Life Tonight." I am eternally grateful, please do some yoga soon guys!
You deserve it :). These gentlemen are smart and tough as nails, yet
full of integrity. I truly owe it to them that we are able to start
over.
I'd also like to thank local attorney, Jude
Koenig, for his assistance at the beginning of stages of the dispute.
My always positive, and ever cheerful business coach, Alon Sagee. He
helped me focus on the dream, and to breathe through the reality.
I also have to send the biggest hug to "Papa
Jim," -- Jim Simon -- our yoga angel and the best ear in town. Jim,
your guidance and support, as well as that from your beautiful wife
Martha, has kept me sane, grounded and "breathing like its a
back-bend" when it seemed impossible.
Thanks to my incredibly loving husband, for
your emotional support, and always being willing to grow with me. YOU
are amazing!!
Of course to my kids, they inspire me to live
in the moment daily.
Please come see us. We plan on being at the
studio all day on July 30th, so stop by if you can. I will teach the
last class in Truckee scheduled at 4:30 p.m.
Make sure that you check the website often, we
will keep you updated to ALL changes as well as on Facebook at Bikram
Yoga Sierra, and via email.
We are ACTIVELY seeking interim housing for
our studio and look forward to introducing you to your new "home" at
Bikram Yoga Truckee in the VERY near future.
From the bottom of my heart,
Thank you for being our family,
In peace.
Tanya
WE LOVE YOU TRUCKEE!!
STAY POSTED WE WILL KEEP YOU INFORMED
