Ribbon cutting ceremony


Ah! It is always nice to meet new people, specially if they have very little in common with you.
Today the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce had a little gathering to cut the ribbon for Yoga Sanga. Well, we are an online Magazine therefore there is no really a space or office beyond my studio at home, hard to cut anything on the computer...
For that they offered me the Chamber's offices. A very old and renovated house on Main Street in Round Rock.
I learned that over 90 percent of the membership is composed of small businesses interested in prospering and creating a healthy environment in which to conduct business. The Chamber is made up of people who realize that through the Chamber they can accomplish collectively what no one of them can do individually. The strength of the Chamber lies in attracting the greatest number of members, creating a pool of resources from which can be drawn ideas, energy and finances.

The members were talking about how they are facing the challenges of the recession and how innovative they have become to continue attracting customers.
Yoga Sanga wants to offer an affordable greener way to attract prospect students to classes, studios and special events. Also we want to be a place where new and old practitioners can find inspiration and information related to the eighth limbs of Yoga.
It was a fun ceremony, specially trying to hold those scissors almost as big as I am (not too of a challenge, I have to admit)

When I was ready to cut the ribbon, someone said you have to cut it with a fast and strong movement otherwise it won't cut. I use all my yoga energy and almost break the scissors, they laughed and said, guess that yoga thing really works! I am having a smile on my face for that.
Of course the food was great, catered by Angie's in Round Rock, so fresh and delicious, thanks for those great treats!
Thanks for those who came to say hello, your presence is deeply appreciated.
Shanti,
Rocio
