Letter Of Acknowledgement
from Terri Hogue, Founder and Director of Mountain Yoga Studio
Many people have been responsible in getting Mountain Yoga Studio up and
running. They have done this by sharing their time, talents, treasures and
themselves and I would like to thank them, here goes:
Thanks to... Bob Stern, for being my realist. For your expertise and insight in bringing my dream to five legal size pieces of paper. Anne Heeter, for painting and painting and painting. Barbara Stern, for your ideas and support. For being there through each curve in the road. And for all your notes and treasures. You'd make the perfect big sister, I think I'm going to adopt you! Matt, for being the best repair man, inspector, carpenter and all-around Mr. Fix-It, and soon-to-be yogi. Lauren, for painting, folding blankets and making this process such fun. You'll always be my sunshine. Luke, my Devil Dog, for the "classic" shelves. Semper Fi. Laine for helping to paint and for trying out my chair and each blanket and each singing bowl over and over again. Not only do you cause a ringing in my ear but also a song in my heart. Chris Carroll of Carroll Awnings, for the letters and numbers on the window. They're perfect. Laura Carroll, for letting Chris know when you thought that they were perfect. They're even more than perfect. Stacie Tolen for listening to me try to explain what I have in my mind and mixing with your incredible knowledge of computers to create the most awesome web page. Billy Greer for taking such beautiful pictures for the web page and for teaching me more than I ever wanted to know about computers but was afraid to ask! Nancy Greer for being a go-between for me and Billy and for being my #1 PR yogi. The MYS teachers, the creme of the crop: Bridget Codd & Stacie Tolen. Bridget, for the many, many years... for being brave enough to let me drag you to Manuso and then liking it enough to go back for more. We share much more than just yoga. Stacie, I can remember the first time you took my class, I always knew you would be a yoga teacher - and yes, I even knew you would be fantastic. And to the Baron, Mr. Yee and as one of my teachers used to say, "all the Yoga Hot Shots". Where to Next? To everyone who put up a flyer. The students of the Fall 2001 session for watching things appear before your eyes week after week. Thanks for your patience and excitement. The 'Core Group' - you know who you are. You are the backbone of MYS. That must make each of you a vertebra! Without you this would never have been possible. My Family - Matt, Luke, Lauren & Laine, for understanding my love for yoga, for believing in me and encouraging me and yes, many times pushing me. Without you this would have never become a reality. My teachers, past, present and future; the ones I have had the honor to know and the ones who were here long before me. I am truly grateful for your wisdom and I thank you with all my heart. ~TLH |
