advertisement for chill-skill exchange amongst the yoga society

Hi guys,

Hopefully this isn't clogging up your inbox with one too many emails, but one of our members is hosting a skill-exchange workshop in IWL and I promised to pass this along - sounds like a fab and easy way to learn a new skill, completely free of charge and with nibbles and refreshments included! Have a read:

 

 

Hi there,

I am a final year MA Fine Art student and a keen member of the Yoga Society for years. During Innovative Learning Week, on Thursday 21^st February, I wish to hold a speed skill-exchange event for university societies and others to take part in. I am writing to see if any one in the yoga society would like to take part by presenting a 15 minute yoga tutorial as a skill-exchange? the exchange will last 30 minutes before moving on to the next.

 

So far I have a sushi-maker and head/shoulder massagers who are willing to give taster sessions. And to complete this trio I would LOVE a yogi (being a keen one myself!) The event will last only an hour and a half and will be taking place in Edinburgh College of Art and there will also be members of the wider student body who will drop-in. 

 

The idea behind this event is to celebrate the hobbies and skills that we practice in our spare time for ourselves and for enjoyment – not those that we expect to get paid for or do with the aspiration to get a job at the end of it. We all obviously work so hard on our degrees but I’m interested in the activities that we undertake alongside them.

 

This will be a really fun alternative event during Innovative Learning Week and as well as taking part myself, I will provide nibbles, drinks and music. It will be also be a really good opportunity to promote the yoga society.

 

Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions

 

All the best,

Jessica
