You were but a flicker in my heart. And now, you're a toddler. Already!
Yoga Garden celebrated its second birthday today our time, yesterday Japan time. When we launched in July 2005 I figured I'd be in Japan to help it grow, forever. Instead, the tide turned and I decided to venture out on a sabbatical in October 2006. The studio has done nothing but grow since then. Early this year we added new teachers and a Tai Chi class to the schedule. The teachers and the new schedule additions have taken off. Patrick, my co-host at Zen Is Stupid and co-founder of the studio, cares for the studio as though it were a child, and thus, it has grown and grown.
To the teachers, students and students-to-be at Yoga Garden, many thanks. You have made it what it is today. For two years we've comminted to creating value for our students, keeping the class size small and personal, and letting students grow at their own pace. More than a studio, in a time where studios proliferate, we've co-created sanctuary. Namasté.

Gwen -
You and Patrick have also grown with your sanctuary, your 'child' of sorts! I am thrilled that it continues to flourish with all the changes between then and now.
Thrilled even more because that outer space illuminates the inner space you and Patrick hold for it, and who you are both becoming (so quickly!):
you. now. here.
Thay, I'm sure, somehow knows and is pleased. The name he gave you suits you well.
See, that’s the power of a great logo ;)
Srsly though, congrats on all of your successes!
Awaken those spines, yee-haw!!!
