No yoga tomorrow. Puppy yoga next week!
Hey friends!A quick calendar note before we get to the puppy part: Remember, there are no classes tomorrow, Wednesday, November 11. This goes for Wednesday, November 25 (the day before Thanksgiving) as well. Sit, stay, & breathe... with Berty🐾The votes are in! Our special Meet the Puppy class is Tuesday, November 17, from 10 to 11 am at Trilogy. Expect a mostly seated yoga adventure while Berty wanders the room and makes her introductions. I’ll be leading the yoga. She’ll be in charge of mingling. We’ll see how long that division of labor lasts. RSVP with the button below:
Let’s stock the pantryIt’s time for our annual food drive for Provisions Bulverde Food Pantry! Bring your canned goods/other items from their most-needed list to our classes at Trilogy next week (November 16, 17, or 18). Take a peek at the list below if you’re wondering what to bring. Cash donations are welcome, too. Provisions can stretch those dollars when they shop through the San Antonio Food Bank. Thank you for helping take care of our neighbors!

One last Snack & Chat for 2026Our next Winnie’s Book Club pick is The Star Society by Gabriella Saab. If you’ve been waiting for a book that makes you wonder how far you’d go to protect someone you love, this one’s for you! Save Tuesday, December 1, from noon to 2 pm for our last Snack & Chat of the year. We're on the lookout for another field trip spot to close out 2026 together. I’ll share the location once it’s set.
