Boast Squash

Hello Neighbors, A lot of parents in the West Metro have been asking us about indoor sports for kids, especially for kids who want something active but different from hockey or basketball! At Boast Squash, we run an active junior squash program where kids ages 5 and up learn a fast-paced indoor racquet sport that builds fitness, coordination, and focus. Many of our beginner players come from tennis, hockey, soccer, or just kids who like to run and play. Because squash is still new to many families, we’re hosting a FREE “Try Squash” session for kids this month so they can experience the game before committing to anything. • Ages 5–12 welcome • Equipment provided • No experience needed • Small group coaching&nbsp;&nbsp;If your child enjoys active sports or you’re just curious about squash, feel free to comment or message - we’ll share the details. We love introducing local kids to a really fun, healthy sport they can play for life. Location: Boast Squash, 9805 Hamilton Road, Eden Prairie, MN (near Braemar and Champions Hall) Date: Saturday April 25th; 12 Noon. Ages: 5–12 Cost: Free! Space is limited, so families are encouraged to reserve a spot in advance. To register or learn more: <a href="https://boastsquash.com/contact-us/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://boastsquash.com/contact-us/</a> (check “Jr Squash Programs” in drop down).

Promoting Wellness Through Our Wellness Retreats 

AnnapurnaBlue Health and Wellness 

AnnapurnaBlue Health &amp; Wellness: A Sanctuary for Renewal AnnapurnaBlue Health &amp; Wellness was created from a simple yet powerful belief: that true healing happens when we care for the whole person — mind, body, and spirit. Founded by Deborah Peteler, AnnapurnaBlue offers transformative wellness retreats and programs designed for individuals navigating life transitions, health challenges, emotional overwhelm, and personal reinvention. With over 30 years of experience in trauma-informed care and holistic wellness practices, Deborah blends ancient wisdom with modern therapeutic approaches to create safe, supportive environments where real healing can take place. Our retreats — held both locally in Minnesota and internationally — are intentionally designed to help participants slow down, reflect, and reconnect with themselves. Through gentle Qigong movement, meditation, sound healing, breathwork, mindset sessions, and meaningful group dialogue, participants gain tools to manage stress, navigate change, and build emotional resilience. AnnapurnaBlue is especially supportive of women ages 35–70+ navigating grief, life-altering illness, menopause, empty nesting, career transitions, and other profound shifts. We believe these seasons of life are not endings — they are powerful invitations to rise. Our programs are inclusive, nurturing, and deeply respectful of each individual’s journey. Many participants leave feeling restored, empowered, and connected — not only to themselves, but to a supportive community of like-minded individuals. Whether someone is seeking healing, clarity, rest, or renewal, AnnapurnaBlue provides a sacred pause from the noise of daily life and an opportunity to move forward with intention. To learn more about upcoming retreats and programs, visit annapurnabluewellness.com We are grateful to be part of this community and honored to support the well-being of our neighbors.

Through these teachings, guests learn to transform negative emotions into clarity, wisdom, and joy. What makes AnnapurnaBlue Wellness special is our deep commitment to whole-person healing and community. Every retreat is guided by compassionate experts with decades of experience who support each participant’s journey toward peace and empowerment. Guests leave not only renewed, but with practical tools for lasting change—and the gift of connection with like-minded souls.
