I couldn’t begin any letter to our students, without thanking you for your commitment to each other and our studio. It has resulted in an energetic, caring and enjoyable place to practice yoga together. It is your commitment to what we have built together that makes what I am about to share such an exciting gift and opportunity, and I look forward to where this will lead us as a community. Namaste.
Breathe Yoga Center is evolving as a studio, and we are about to embark upon a transition filled with opportunity.
After months of careful deliberation over a new name, we have chosen MOYO. MOYO (pronounced MO-YO) is the Swahilli word for soul. We have begun to refer to MOYO as ‘the soul of yoga.’ We feel the name expresses who we are and where we’re headed.
A number of factors went into this decision, and while it was certainly a challenging one to make, we wanted to use this opportunity as a chance to re-examine the future of our studio. We are excited about the change and know it is a launching ground for great things to come!
With this said, I know you may have attachments to the name Breathe Yoga Center. It has been emotional for me too. But, as students of yoga we have to support one another in our vision to embrace change.
The name change will take place January 1, 2009 and we are excited about the limitless possibilities ahead of us! Thank you for your support and we hope you will continue to enjoy the studio and our commitment to bring you outstanding yoga.
Namaste.
Maureen A. Priest, Director
