<p>A new Santa Monica Yoga schedule arrives Monday March 5. This time around I had to make some difficult choices and discontinue a number of classes which were not well attended. The new schedule is still quite robust at 89 classes per week. Overall I think it&rsquo;s a better schedule, but it is always a work-in-progress, so I thank you in advance for your understanding and support!</p>

Please note, prices will also go up a bit - except for the monthly auto-renew - which is now just $99/month.]]></summary></entry><entry><title>Catherine's Final (for now) India Blog Post: Odds and Ends of a Beautiful Love Affair</title><id>http://www.santamonicayoga.com/news/2012/2/2/catherines-final-for-now-india-blog-post-odds-and-ends-of-a.html</id><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.santamonicayoga.com/news/2012/2/2/catherines-final-for-now-india-blog-post-odds-and-ends-of-a.html"/><author><name>Santa Monica Yoga</name></author><published>2012-02-02T20:35:44Z</published><updated>2012-02-02T20:35:44Z</updated><content type="html" xml:lang="en-US"><![CDATA[<p><span class="full-image-block ssNonEditable"><span><strong><img style="width: 500px;" src="http://www.santamonicayoga.com/storage/HHDL.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1328215170966" alt="" /></strong></span><span class="thumbnail-caption" style="width: 500px;"><strong>SMY teacher Catherine McDonough with her husband Tom (right) and His Holiness the Dalai Lama</strong></span></span></p>
