BAC’s own Dave Mauro will be doing a book signing, May 21st at the downtown location at 5:00 p.m. You won’t want to miss this. “I Highly recommend his book. Great read.” Mike Locke
Dave will have ample quantities of his book “Altitude Journals” available for purchase and signing. Cost is $27.
“When David Mauro was in his forties, his life hit rock bottom. With nothing to lose, he left everything he knew behind and set out on an epic international adventure. For the next seven years, Dave trudged across glaciers and frozen wastelands and through dense, dangerous forests. He communed with penguins and elephants, kept company with cannibals and gunrunners, and spoke with the dead. And though he’d never been a climber, he ended up joining history’s courageous few when he ascended into the clouds to stand at the summit of Mt. Everest.
Drawn from Dave’s personal diaries, The “Altitude Journals” is the poignant, inspiring, and endlessly exciting true story of a remarkable midlife crisis. It is an unforgettable tale of one man who went to amazing extremes to repair a shattered life–and how he regained the powers to love and forgive, and to believe in himself once again.”
Leslie has been teaching yoga for nearly 18 years. Currently, she teaches Gentle Yoga at the Downtown club. Her goal is to provide therapeutic classes that target areas of deep stress and past injury. Classes include breath-work, poses, and meditation. When not teaching, Leslie enjoys playing a lot with my two young boys, practicing yoga, and enjoys walks in the woods. Leslie has two boys, ages 3 and 7, and the sweetest dog you’ve ever met. Her husband is pretty sweet too!
My name is Liza Elman. I started my yoga career in 2012 getting certified with a 200-hour teacher certification course. I was trained in an Ashtanga based studio. I have used yoga to help center myself as well as surround myself in a warm and welcoming community. I started teaching at BAC in November 2017 and my class is Thursday evenings at 6:40 pm. When I am not teaching yoga, I try to spend as much time outside as possible. I love to ski, hike, kayak, surf, visit the farmers market and cook! I hope to see you in my class!
