Big YogaNow News Flash – after 5 years (our anniversary is March 1st) we are moving to computers for student check in! 

 

Thanks to YOU dear reader and all your support, business is good enough to warrant help from cyberspace.  Beginning this Sunday morning, 2/19, your instructor will check you in using the YogaNow Student Check-In System.  In the beginning it may take a few extra moments for class to begin, but once everyone has the hang of it (including instructors), using the system should be easy – and most important for you – you will know at check in how many classes you have left on your bundles (both studios are updated in real time) and when the bundles expire.  Please be patient at first…keep your yogic cool and smile at the instructor as s/he navigates.  And let us know how we are doing!

 

WHEW – we are all holding the intention that this will run smoothly and help keep us all up with data!

 

OTHER BIG NEWS:  the Yoga Alliance has granted Registered Yoga School to the YogaNow Teacher Training Apprentice Program!  Graduates that satisfy the requirements can be granted their Registered Yoga Teacher status with great ease and through YogaNow!

A word from Meta:

Converting to a computer system for student check-in is quite a step for the YogaNow world…also melds together my old career with Arthur Andersen as a computer consultant with my newer and much more loved role as yoga teacher and studio owner. 

 

Developing this system with some seriously top-notched folks with TurnKey Techonolgies (thank you, Rich!), having the pleasure of working with even more top notched YogaNow Supporters, Jeffrey Granger and Lisa Riser, and working to make this a system that is truly focused on the student has actually been a wild ride…and one that I hope supports you, the student. 

 

Life just keeps getting better…again, thank you!

 

May we all have great imagination and wide and strong wings,

In peace,

With many smiles,

Meta.
