But before even boarding the cruise ship, we have to contend with a nine-hour flight to Frankfurt and another two-hour one to Rome, where we’ll pick up our cruise. Ugh (to the flight, not the cruise). (more…)

Business and Children

Christina Souza Ma

CSM_business-Children.jpgSo many people ask me “How do you do it? How do you run your company with your child by your side daily?” And these are people who know that running YogaHub is not the only business I oversee, but just one of many.

Stressful Times

Christina Souza Ma

CSM_Mommy-Helper.JPGWell my fellow WAHMs, I hope the current economic crisis is not taking too much of a toll on your lives.

A Bumpy Ride Even Before Boarding

Christina Souza Ma

CSM_Bumpy-Ride.JPGAaaah…another flight with my 18-month-old son.

When he was a baby, it used to be an extremely easy way to travel. He would share my seat, gurgling and cooing his way through the flight.

Yoga Men Hanging Out

Paloma Chavez

Senior Man Doing YogaDo you know where your senior friends or relatives are this morning? Well, if you happen to live in the community of Brockport, NY, they may just be hanging out with Nancy Burhyte at the Burhyte Ballet School – except they won’t be learning how to do ballet poses, such as the first position or an arabesque, but will rather be in a yoga forward bend or child’s pose.
