Hey Joanna,

This is Katya. Those poses look great! (and there I was thinking you guys were snoozing in KL!).

Pass it over to JK, she will pass it over to Lysette Scheers, who would turn them into a yoga card deck, like the children's yoga deck we have. We can sell them, with proceeds going to the Wheelies. JK wants to adopt them but I don't know if she appreciates just how much money & work needed to support yet another charity. Her latest idea is doing a Wheelchair Yoga DVD to sell for them (please dissuade her). Your cards are better!

Love
KA
