Micro-business support and yoga in the ‘hood

Since the first lockdown we’ve been busy posting posts (as you’d know because of course you are reading this now) and building our online presence.

Every week we have a few more people sign up to receive our weekly news and follow us on Instagram/Facebook. Slowly and steadily we’re building a broader audience, which we hope will translate to more people knowing who and where we are and what we do … and then accessing our onsite services when we move back to face-to-face activities.

And we’re really pleased that some local micro-businesses have been contacting us as a means of connecting into the local community.

Because neighbourhood houses are about supporting and building a variety of neighbourhood activities and resources. We’ve always supported start-up businesses that align to identified community need by providing cheap community space rental rates, for example, and by holding community makers markets etc. And so, whilst these particular support mechanisms are on hold, helping spread the word is another thing we can do.

Last week Emma, a local who you may know from Alphington PS (she tells me she ran some of the fetes in her time) contacted us to say she is offering free yoga classes for the rest of the month from her studio in Naroon Road.

Here’s what she wrote.

For the month of September, The Little Yoga Room is offering free online classes. Physically located in Alphington, virtually located on your mat at home! A little calm, a little freedom, a little yoga studio:

And here’s the link to her website with the details of how to contact her etc.

Good luck Emma, and happy neighbourhood yoga-ing! folks.
