History Made
As I listened to Amanda Gorman, I got lost in the words swirling around me, reminding me of the power of poetry to communicate emotion, setting the scene for a historic day. "For while we have our eyes on the future, history has its eyes on us." YES.

If you didn't get to hear Amanda read her poem, take 5 minutes for yourself to listen and watch, I have attached the link to her photo at the bottom of this email. Better yet, after you listen to her, if you are moved, share her poem with someone you love, and let them feel the power of words to move us.

I hope you see the opportunity created today for woman in America and I encourage you to amplify the voice of Amanda Gordon and allow her words to form the cornerstone of what we build this year.

Love,
Jamie

This Friday! Our first Residency of the year launches with Yin and Real Talk with Wendy!!! That is a lot of excitement for relaxing into a deep stretch...allow your roots to spread and be nourished, this is a year of personal growth and it starts with taking care of your self!!! Yes, classes are available on our portal at https://online.marinpoweryoga.com - let’s do this!

ove Your Self.
We are kicking off our first Residency of the year with Wendy and Yin at the end of this week. Why? Self-Love People. We are easing into the year with love and devotion for your best teacher, YOU. As the rain alternates between a gentle pitter patter and the wind slamming doors, I feel the cold nip of winter reminding me this is exactly where I am supposed to be, healing and getting better.

Why aren't we doing a 30 day challenge or a juice cleanse? Because that is so last year. Seriously, you do not need to deprive yourself of bread or meat or rest or wine or force yourself to do chaturangas for 30 days in a row to prove how strong you are. You Are Enough.

I know it doesn't feel that way.

Write the next chapter of your life with us; share the soggy trails, epic climbs, burpees, handstands and deep stretches, these are the many paths we are taking to building a healthy community with you.

The Plan

Marin Yoga - Our Mobile Application. This is the new front door to our community. It is free for everyone and provides a complimentary class each day. Our Residency programs will happen on the App in real time each month. This is the secret to your success, we are building positive habits with trackers and communication, we are adding in goal setting this month.
Marin Power Yoga - Our Paid Portal. This is where our series will be OnDemand along with our full library of classes. We are asking you to be a paid Member for the power of choice, you can do any of our classes any time. You can access this from our mobile app!
Meditation - We are building an incredible meditation program. Why? Because this is the way to mental freedom. You can start with one of our Series, or join in during one of our upcoming Residencies. Aren't you tired of saying you don't meditate?
We have some strange technical issues, like having two different sign-ins for the front end and the back end. Why? Because we are experimenting with technology and living on the edge of what is easy and what is possible. This will get easier and look better this year.

We moved to a private platform because your data is created by the actions you take and it should be yours! If you can't af

We’ve got an amazing plan to start your year. Right? Ease. If this past year didn’t break you, nothing will. We are not depriving ourselves of anything next month with a yo-yo diet, nor are we torturing ourselves to the point of injury. We are meditating and stretching and getting rested up for an amazing year. Sending you love and vegan recipes!

Kick Start Your Day and Your Life. People. This ro

Kick Start Your Day and Your Life.
People. This rollercoaster of a year is relentless, kind of like Mat Pilates with Megan. Nothing is really happening and I am shaking on the ground. Right? Why let this year leave you in a puddle on the floor when Megan will do that in the first 5 minutes of class? Mat Pilates is brutally hard.  I used to joke that Pilates was for "old ladies," it was expensive and exclusive, only accessible to the retired women and dancers. That might have been true, but it is not the truth. The TRUTH is Mat Pilates is so difficult the only people who do it are older women, proven tough by time, the survivors who are so strong it takes the toughest core workout to break them...and now me. Seriously, if you step outside today and listen carefully, underneath the gentle whispering and rustling of leaves and in between the tweeting of birds, you might hear my cries echoing in the canyons "I love Mat Pilates." Why? Because I feel longer and leaner and it is only Day 6, but this is not why I am writing to you today.  I know the next few weeks are going to be challenging for us all. As you panic about buying presents or not buying presents, please remember, you have so much love inside of you to share...your words or a zoom call or a hug from 10' away is more than enough. As I read those words, multiple times, I know how challenging it is and how soon I will fail and let the season of "not enough" take over.   So, I am asking you for help. Please join me in supporting the Canal District. Our family is joining in support of the Wood/Breen/Nissen Family efforts to support our neighbors. See the message below and join me in helping. Together, we can do anything.  Love, Jamie  Support those families hardest hit by COVID-19 in our community! Our family will be collecting the following items until December 20th. Please leave items in the bins in our driveway. Gift cards should be brought to the front porch (Please knock!).  ❄️27 San Rafael Ave, San Anselmo❄️  Gift card drive for the holidays  During the holiday season, gift cards provide people with the flexibility and autonomy to make the purchases they need most to support their family's health, stabil

From your email:
Start Today.
We are starting our Mat Pilates Kick Start Program TODAY. Why am I yelling? I am excited!!! After years of excuses about Pilates I started off the year only doing Mat Pilates with Megan and Jen and I was crushing it, until the pandemic hit and I fell off the wagon hard. The great thing about Mat Pilates is when your muscles give out, you are already laying on the ground, falling looks and feels more like relaxing. Yes, I am saying I love Mat Pilates because it is a lot of laying on the ground.

I need this next week more than you can imagine. I turn 48 today and am strangely happy about it, something about surviving another day in the toughest year is invigorating. I've felt old a lot this year and questioned my ability to "fight another fight," yet here I am, still writing and full of ideas and dreams about what we can do next, together.

It's o.k. to cry. What? For real. I've cried watching tv, reading books, thinking about current events and even from good old fashioned physical pain...all this year. Historically, I will tear up, not this year, the tears have flown freely and at will. I am not sure if I have stopped fighting my emotions, if I have given up or if I am enlightened and going with the flow, what I can tell you is, I feel better after crying.

People, that is where we gotten to this year. It's my Birthday and I am encouraging you to cry more. If that doesn't make you laugh out loud, at the ridiculousness of this year, start day 1 of our Pilates Kick Start with me. Roll around on the floor clutching your stomach when it cramps, avoid using momentum to cheat, focus your energy on your center and engaging the muscles Megan tells you to. We are rebuilding from the inside out and we are stronger because of the work we do together.

Our mission is to build a healthy community with you.

Love,
Jamie

Last week was tough. We closed the shop last week,

Last week was tough.
We closed the shop last week, it was more painful than you can imagine, physically, emotionally and spiritually. As we packed and moved goods out, each step hurt a little bit more as my faith slowly shattered over the course of 12 hours. For the next 24 hours I limped around, nursing my wounds and slowly letting go of my feelings of failure around the shop. Yes, the space is available, reach out to me and I can connect you in.

I am really excited for the good things coming. We are launching our next "residency" with "Kickstart Mat Pilates with Megan." This program starts Thursday on our Mobile App! Why Mat Pilates? This is an amazing practice to strengthen your little muscles and core! The classes will vary in length and your whole body will feel stronger in one week. Do This With Us!!!

WTF are you doing Jamie? My mom asked me this more gently, but the point was clear. Why isn't it clear and easy to just go to class? I KNOW. I laughed when Rebecca Friese described this as, flying the airplane while building it, her new book is available on Amazon here: The Good Culture: The Leader's Guide to Creating a Workplace That Doesn't Suck. I picked up her book last weekend and tore through it, get it and in a few hours you will an excellent overview of the last 3 classes I have taken! We are creating a new Culture at MPY, Collaborate - we are building everything together from the root Chakra up, together.

It isn't clear what we are doing and that is frustrating for all of us. We are building something new and the vision is evolving every week. What is overwhelming clear is what our values are and who we are as people. We are putting our energy and passion into figuring out how to inspire your life and improve your health. You will see our new format rolling out as we bring special programs 2-3x a month, these programs will launch through the app for free, if you want to do them afterwards they are available to Members on our vimeo premium portal. This is our idea on how to provide classes to everybody who needs them during these challenging times and grow a sustainable business.
Why do the next few weeks look like? I am encouraging you to go eas
