THE SECOND WEEK OF MARCH!
On the 10th Maureen McKelvey will be doing Thai massage! sorry boys, this is just for the ladies. Thai Massage is an amazing relaxing treat, that increases flexibility, decreases pain, opens tight hips and leg muscles. I liken it to assisted yoga- amazing for athletes!

Thai massage is unique in that it truly is a combination of assisted stretching and stress relief and is often called "assisted yoga". During a session the whole body is stretched, moved and compressed using soothing, rhythmic motions. Thai massage is performed on a mat with the client fully clothed

charities

I am hoping the charities to be The Red Cross or the Clinton Bush Haiti fund and world vision. All proceeds will go to whatever charity the business chooses.

Pulling it together

March For Haiti Seattle!
I am happy to announce to SEATTLE an opportunity to both get healthy, pretty, fit, and pampered every day in March. As you probably have guessed, I am calling it "March For Haiti." It is my hope that everyday in March a person can choose a service, skill, meal, yoga class, bodywork, pilates, chiropractic, acupuncture, wine, etc... whereby proceeds of these services will go towards assisting the people of Haiti.

I will be listing each business, and the days in enough time to schedule and research the amazing businesses that have chosen to participate, thanks so much to all of you.

a preview of the businesses are as follows: sweetspot sugaring studio, waking life massage, chopstix acupuncture and bodywork studio, fremont spine and wellness, surf ballard, fly fitness, lululemon, custom smoothie, Be luminous yoga, 5focus, conscious body pilates, medusa bodyworks, thai massage, swirl wine bar, among other amazing classes from the city's premiere yoga instructors, hip hop dancers, fitness instructors, and henna artists.

I hope to make this easy to navigate and follow, I am new to blogging- but thought it the easiest way to get the message out there, any feedback is welcome!

stay tuned and participate!!!
