The Challengers are checking in with updates here...

What IS the OM yoga Challenge?
Many spiritual paths have a traditional period of contemplation and recommitment to practice as a community. The idea of the OM yoga Challenge is to explore commitment, consistency, curiosity, connection, community and transformation.

Beginning March 8, challenge yourself to take 30 asana classes in 30 days!

In 30 days a lot can change -- with yoga those changes might include getting stronger, more flexible, improved sleep and digestion, uplifted moods and more! Who knows? Maybe for you just making a commitment and keeping it could be a big change! Whatever we think might happen, after 30 days of the OM yoga Challenge, we will all be surprised and learn a lot... about yoga and about ourselves!

The transformative power of yoga is available to all of us… but only if we really make a commitment of time and consistency.  What would happen if we all did that together for 30 days?  Join the OM sangha for a 30 day OM yoga Challenge - we’ll get together three times during the month to share our experience and keep our motivation.

This is how it works.
•Register with the front desk. Joining the Challenge is FREE but we want to know who's on the team!
•Come to an OM yoga asana class every day for 30 days
•Find out what happens...

The important point of spritual practice is not to try to escape your life, but to face it -- exactly and completely.
-Dainin Katagiri Roshi

The OM yoga Challenge 2006 FAQs:

Can I go to any class?
Yes, you can go to any asana class, including restorative and express. We love home practice and meditation but THIS yoga challenge is about coming to class and being with you cOMmunity, so please take one class a day either at OM yoga Union Square or OM yoga Ailey.

What if I go out of town?
Then use either one of the OM yoga DVDs to do your OM yoga practice wherever you are, every day that you are gone.

Can I take more than one class in a day?
The idea of the Challenge is to develop commitment, consistency and curiosity, so to meet the Challenge your requirement is to take one class daily. It's not about taking 30 classes, it's about taking asana class daily for 30 days.

Do I have to buy the 30 Days for $130 Sale to join the Challenge?
No! If you already have a membership or if you like paying for your classes in a different way, that's fine. But, it's a great deal...

What will OM give me if I complete the OM yoga Challenge?
OM will be so proud of you for deepening your practice that we will give you a discount toward a future workshop or immersion.

What else will OM give me?
The OM yoga Challenge team will have 3 gatherings, w/healthy drinks & goodies:

March 8 at 7:45PM, but you can take class any time that day.
Noon on Sunday, March 19 to check in our progress & keep each other motivated.
