Closing out Nya Studio

Today was my last class at Nya Studio.  As of 1/31 Nya Studio is no more.

My last class was today.  I am branching out on my own and moving to 861 Lafayette Road #7 in Hampton.  I am hoping a few friends will join me in the space.  I am not expanding to teach full-time. My first class in the new space is a private class on February 2nd.  The regular class schedule will begin on Monday February 5th.  A grand opening party will be planned for later this Spring.

Because I'm busier I asked some fellow volunteers to help out more so I could do a little less.  Not huge things, but to help share the load.  But wh
