Welcoming new students, and a new teacher!

Fun sesh at LES skatepark with this crew during the Sep 12 SKATEYOGI Day Camp!

​Skating is more fun with friends!

I often like to start SKATEYOGI classes by mentioning some similarities between yoga and skateboarding: Both are moving meditations that bring you into the present. Both require great effort to achieve a state of effortlessness. And, both are individual activities that are enriched by practicing in a community. Vibing off the positive energy of your friends while skating can make any session a special experience!

This past week, we got to welcome several new afterschool groups, mixed with returning students and new ones. Each group is unique and I'm looking forward to seeing them all bond through skating together this fall. Even Monday's Day Camp group (pictured above) felt like a solid crew by the end of our day of skate adventures around the city :)

Speaking of new groups, I'm looking forward to welcoming the three different groups of 6-week series students kicking off this weekend. Btw, there's still some room in Sunday's Rise and Grind and Groms Plus series ;)

I'm also happy to announce my good friend Cory Lindsey-Bush will be joining the SKATEYOGI community as a head teacher. I've known Cory since the late 90s when we used to skate together in Boston. More recently we taught the afterschool skate club and summer camp together at Friends Seminary in Manhattan (pictured below). Cory also ran the highly regarded skate program at East Side Community High in the East Village as well as various other afterschool programs around the city. He'll be bringing his unique style of street skating to the Rise and Grind Series and in the Afterschool program. Can't wait to see him inspire the SKATEYOGI kids!
