HO, HO, HOLD ON TO YOUR REINDEER BECAUSE SANTA IS COMING TO BODY BALANCE!

Gifts of Wellness and Self-Care

Looking for a holiday gift that will really make an impact? Well you’re in luck because, with our large selection of wellness and self-care gift options, we have the perfect gift for everyone on your list!

And if you haven’t noticed, Santa is not the only thing that's trending! Yoga continues to gain popularity with medical professionals who are increasingly recommending it's significant health benefits! So, with all these health and wellness professionals telling people they should do yoga, why aren’t more people jumping in?

Well let’s dig into that. When surveyed, the reason many people give for not doing yoga is that they are not comfortable with the process of getting started. And this is where the importance of private yoga lessons come in!

Getting Started with Private Yoga Lessons

Private yoga lessons are the perfect gift for someone who wants to become more familiar with yoga before they attend regular classes, or for someone with an injury who could benefit from personalized instruction to learn how to practice yoga safely and comfortably in a group class.

And for someone who has a regular practice but wants to take their yoga to the next level, private lessons can be a game changer! In the past, personalized instruction has been a luxury that many people could not afford, but with our gift bundles, private yoga lessons are more affordable than ever!

Check out our Massage + Yoga gift bundles and see the options for private yoga lessons that could be the key for bringing wellness into someone’s life this coming year. Because the gift of good health is the best gift you can give!

Back by popular demand, BayRich Oysters is once again offering Poquoson River “saltie” oysters for sale to our members.  Place your order now and you can pick up your oysters at the studio on Sunday, December 18th between 9am and 12 noon, or we can keep them refrigerated until you can come to the stuido to get them.

You don’t need to worry about the oysters staying fresh for Christmas because as long as they stay refrigerated they can easily last for 10 days or more. The oysters are in a dormant stage and they will be fine as long as you don't let them soak in water.
