Better late than never.

​

Mike and Pam Brunner of Gering, Nebraska, were introduced to Yoga in their seventh decade of life. Mike, 62, retired last year from a desk job as a certified transportation broker after 37 years. Before that, he started out in the workforce as a DJ on radio stations in Gering and Portland, Oregon. Meanwhile, Pam, 60, worked for Gering Public Schools for 22 years, the last two as a librarian at Gering’s Northfield Elementary. 

Both performed relatively sedentary jobs and their bodies felt the effects. Mike kept his head firmly into the receiver of a telephone, one elbow on the desk, while Pam pushed book carts and chased kids. With two kids of their own long since gone, the empty-nesters began to settle into retirement as couch potatoes, which didn’t abide their interests.
