On Friday May 17th, the Shala celebrated its new digs with a ribbon cutting ceremony officiated by the Mystic Chamber of Commerce. In this photo, owner and teacher Amy "Dechen" Zezulka cuts the ribbon while amateur architect of the fabulous studio and Baptiste teacher James Conlan stands by her side. Vegan refreshments were provided by Kates Cafe in Mystic and Zest Bakery located in the Velvet Mill in Stonington. Noah Straub provided super fun music as the DJ. The back deck was lit up and new and old friends celebrated the expansion of the Shala community. Yea! A big thank you to all!
