BEING LATE FOR CLASS . . .

Be on time for Yoga!

Be on time for Yoga!

Every once in a while we’d like to remind our students about not coming to class late.

Entering the yoga room at the beginning of a class when there is a meditation going on is disrupting for most of the students.

So if you are more than just 5 minutes late, and the meditation has started, please wait in the reception until the meditation portion is over, and then enter QUIETLY.

If the class has just started, you can enter quietly and sit or lie down close to the door – like on the little carpet by the fire, or just close to the door, so as to disturb as little as possible.

Please wait to set up your mat and get your props until after the meditation is over.

We appreciate your understanding ….. Namasté

Yoga Mat Announcement & Lottery

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

E.C.O. Mat by Prana

E.C.O. Mats by Prana

Dear Students:

We are making some changes about YOGA MATS.  We encourage you to start now, but we will be implementing this transition by November 1st.  Thank you for your understanding!

Due to increased concern and inquiries about our studio mats and multiple people using them, with the advent of cold/flu season approaching, we decided to stop the use of studio mats, and ask each one of you to use your own yoga mat to bring to class and to use… If you don’t have one, you can purchase one at OmBase.

E.C.O. Mats by Prana

E.C.O. Mats by Prana

During this transition you may choose to purchase one of our “OM mats” (E.C.O. Mats by Prana) that have been lovingly worn in by you and your fellow students. These will be available for a nominal cost of $20 each (while supplies last).

Due to overwhelming interest in purchasing a studio mat, we’ve decided the fairest way to give everyone who wants to purchase a studio mat is to hold a mat lottery.

We have only ten (10) of the lovingly broken-in studio mats available for sale… and many more who have expressed an interest in buying one.

So here are some FAQs:

Who is eligible to enter the mat lottery?
Anyone currently taking classes at OmBase.

How to enter the mat lottery?
Write your name on the list at the front desk – please print clearly – please enter your name only once.

When is the drawing?
Drawing will be held Sunday morning October 25th, 2009 after class.

When do I get my mat if I win?
Those whose names are drawn can pick up their mats two weeks from the day of the drawing, (11/8/2009) to give everyone a chance to buy a mat.

What do these lovingly broken-in mats cost?
The ten studio mats for sale will sell for $20 each

What do new mats cost?
OmBase
has several choices for new mats, different thicknesses and sizes, and weight:
the E.C.O. Sticky Mat from Prana color options & retails for $44
the Neo Natural Yoga mat from Prana retails for $68
the Revolution Natural Sticky Mat from Prana retails for $90
the Earth Elements Mat from Hugger Mugger retails for $74.95

Discounts for new mats:

Now through the day of the mat lottery drawing (10/25/2009) all mats in stock receive a 10% discount… any mats ordered and pre-paid for will also qualify for a 10% discount if ordered before 11/8/2009

From 10/25/2009 through the end of the year, the discounts offered on new mats will be as follows:
5% off with the purchase of a 5 class card
10% off with the purchase of a 10 class card
20% off with a purchase of a 20 class card

limit one mat per person at discounted price

What do I do with my old mat(s)?
Please consider recycling your old mat(s)! (see our blog here)

Om Base is an official drop off site for Recycle Your Mat
and your mat will be given a longer life through a program like Street Yoga or chopped up and made into new mats and other yoga products.

If you drop off your old mat they will be recycled into outreach programs when possible, or recycled into new mats and gear through our partnering with recycle your mat

FYI
– There is a nominal charge ($5) to recycle your mat, to cover shipping costs and handling, but this is cost is currently being offset by OmBase by our matching discount on your new mat – so really there is no extra cost to you!
