YOGABEAUTIFUL NEWS from THE STUDIO, WOODEND.
THE YOGA CLASSES:
This is a wonderful day for me. I have to let you know that the Restorative Yoga Classes on Wednesday at 5.30 and Saturday at 12.30 are now full. If you would like to join us, you will have to put your name on a wait list, and I will let you know when there is a space available.
However, the 12.30 Wednesday class which I advertised as a HATHA class, has morphed into a Restorative class. So, if you can’t get into the classes mentioned above, you can come to Monday and Friday at 5.30 or Wednesday at 12.30, so there are a lot of choices available for you. Please come.
A KOMBUCHA CLASS.
The popularity of Kombucha is not waning. I take a bottle or two to the Monday Lunches, and always have a volunteer to take home any leftovers. It is so easy to make I don’t know why so many of you have decided not to do it. Some folk say they don’t have time. You could do it whilst you are making yourself a cuppa. It is the same method. Make tea, dissolve sugar. The Scobie does the rest. All you have to do is wait until the bubbles form, and then repeat the process 2 or so weeks later. How hard can it be..? I have a largish book on making Kombucha on the Web. Please go to www.myyogabooks.etsy.com if you want to know how to add crystals, herbs and flowers to your brew.
THE WOODEND ART SHOW……ART HEALS www.jahnehopewilliams.com (new website)
This long weekend three of my miniatures will be shown at The Woodend Art Group annual pre-christmas sale. The three that I have included are VAN GOGH’S CHAIR, GAUGAINS CHAIR, and a KLIMT. I am also having a showing of my work at my home gallery/studio on the 25th of November between 2pm and 4pm. If you are interested, please email me and let me know your interest. I even have had people come up to me in the supermarket and at church to let me know they are coming… Just keep an eye on the NEW web site www.jahnehopewilliams.net for their progress.

TUESDAYS from7pm- 9pm
COST $250 for 5 classes – or $50 per session
All materials will be provided.
By the end of the 5 classes you will have a unique image to take home, and frame to put in your own meditation room. Maybe good enough, stunning enough to be an heirloom. No painting experience needed. If you are nimble enough to sign your own name, you can do these classes.
SATURDAY MORNINGS 9am – Sumii
I am still open to teaching on a Saturday morning at 9am. This is a one hour class where I will teach SUMII (Chinese/Japanese) brush painting. The cost of this class is $30. You are most welcome even if you haven’t done this before. It is also a great class for people wanting to work on their brush skills. All materials provided.
FELTING CLASS IN WOODEND. This class is being conducted through the Woodend Art Group (at the Woodend Railway Station). If you go to the exhibition over the long weekend you can make enquiries in person, and book.
THE ALCHEMIST ART STORE in Sunbury. Our demonstration…Happened on Saturday 13th October at 4pm. (The store is in the same shopping centre as Aldi in Gap Rd. Right next door to the Asian Food store). It was fantastic – about 10 in the audience, and I was able to demonstrate (and the class was able to play) with materials that the store stock and I have used for many years. Thank goodness for the Alchemist. If you came to class, or you are interested in miniatures, egg-tempera, or oil pastels and gilding, please come to my studio and learn the finer points. I teach the methods used by DaVinci and Cellini – who taught “decorum” alongside painting. Good combo!
MAKE ART MAKE YOGA MAKE MONEY: No matter if you are an artist of any form, or a yoga teacher in any discipline, like me you need to make money. If like me, you want to give it away that’s terrific (and great fun), but you have to make it first. If you don’t have it, you can’t give it away. There are still some glitches on the site regarding times but you can read the times I have inserted in the course details. www.jahnehopewilliams.net
PRIVATE VIEWING of my art, at my studio on Sunday the 25th November between 2 and 4pm. This will be the first time in years I have held an exhibition in my studio, and it is a preview of the work in the print sets. It will be just like a European “vernissage”. My work, a private view with nibbles and champagne. An art “happening” in the comfort of my studio. Come along, have a look at the artwork, spend time in the garden. A beautiful afternoon talking art (and yoga). If you are interested please contact me. It is a small studio, and the viewing will be by invitation.

FOOD BANK at THE UNITING CHURCH.
Even if you think there are others “worse off” than you, come to lunch and the food bank and yoga of course. Like Ronnie Khan of OZ HARVEST, we are “food fighters”. Come to yoga at 11am, then come to our COMMUNITY LUNCH on Mondays at 12 noon, followed by 1pm meditation – and if you are having a struggle to make ends meet, then come and shop at THE FOOD BANK (they have things like coffee, trail mix, soup, powdered milk…) amazing things that you will use and need – the usually expensive things. Please don’t come thinking “someone else is worse off”. This will always be the case. If you need help, please take our help. These items are such a help, please, please become a “customer” otherwise the doors will close (that applies to the FREE yoga too).
