A cornerstone of the Myles of Smyles Foundation is to grant those second wishes! It is one of the hallmarks that makes this foundation unique.

Gentle Yoga is a style of yoga that is far less strenuous than other types of yoga. It is as little or as much as you want it to be. Its modifications lower the intensity of the workout. If you would like it, chair yoga can be a part of your practice. Everything is designed to reduce the strain on your body. Lessening strain does not mean lessening benefits. The graceful and deliberate postures (Asanas) will strengthen and tone your entire body. The breathing exercises (Pranayama) will deepen your practice and bring stillness and calm. Class ends with a period of deep relaxation.
Restorative Yoga- WE work hard in our lives, while we may sleep, we rarely take time to rest. Our class is based on teachings of deep relaxation designed to benefit all of the organ systems of the body.
Bring yoga mat and water; we will add lots of little and big props, items that can be easily found at home. As Yoga Journal says, "This is what yoga is all about: stilling our fidgety bodies and calming our rambling minds so that we may rest quietly in the present moment. . .

The Capital Region area will be hosting a group of exchange students from SPAIN! The coordinator, Melanie Lawrence, is currently looking for volunteer families to host these students for all or part of the time. The organization Global Friendships has successfully been placing students with host families in Schoharie County for 7 years. This is the first time the program will be run in the Capital Region.
Host families come in all shapes and sizes, including:
- Families with small children - Young couples
- Single parents - Families where both adults work
- Retirees
What does it take to qualify as a host family?
A willingness to share yourself and our culture, willingness to provide meals, some transportation, a place for the student to sleep (sharing a room is okay with same gender students) and a warm, supportive environment.
What does one gain from the experience?
Warm memories, unforgettable experiences, increased understanding of another culture, a rich appreciation for cultural & individual uniqueness, enjoyment in making new friends and more than words can describe.
Students will have English classes in the mornings and will be busy most days. They have an activity after class 1 day a week and full day trips once time per week. Many activities are planned and host family members are encouraged to participate on the trips. Some of the trips will include trips to New York City, Boston, Lake George, and Six Flags New England as well as a variety of local half-day activities. Your students will be busy during the week and free to spend time with your family at night and on weekends.
