Sheridan and her business partner, Short Hills resident Julie Gurevich, lead students in private and semi-private classes of varying challenge levels, from beginner to advanced; rates range from $22 for a drop-in class to monthly unlimited visits for $160. Because they are located inside the Annex Sports Performance Center, they also provide instruction specifically for high school and college athletes. And for the truly committed, in January they will offer “Hot Yoga Chicks,” a 200-hour RYT [Registered Yoga Teacher] Yoga Alliance certified training to become certified in teaching Vinyasa [flow] Yoga. • Annex Sports Performance Center, 100 Passaic Ave., (973) 987-6277, revel-yoga.com South Orange-Maplewood AN EASY WAY TO SHOP LOCAL THIS HOLIDAY SEASON Want to support local businesses, but don’t want to give up the ease of online shop- ping? SOMAGENERALSTORE.COM is exactly what it sounds like: a website where you can access the kids’ products, clothing, books, food and wine, gifts, services and more that you would in person at the area’s bricks and mortar stores. For example, you’ll find Rookie Human crib sheets (made by Maplewood resident Gabriela Anggono), gorgeous jewelry from local artist Peggy Pardon, Manolo Blahnik pumps courtesy of Emma’s Vintage Shop and — talk about local — soap containing bees- wax from South Mountain Reservation honeybees. The site is searchable by both product category and vendor, and is owned and operated by local moms Deborah Engel and Amy Howlett. 12 FALL 2018 MILLBURN & SHORT HILLS MAGAZINE South Orange SOUTH ORANGE RESIDENT WINS MUSIC SCHOLARSHIP COSIMO FABRIZIO of South Orange has won a $25,000 DAVIDSON FELLOWS SCHOLARSHIP in the category of Music — Jazz Guitar for his project, “21st Century Jazz Music — The Search for Authenticity.” Davidson Fellows are named by the nonprofit Davidson Institute for Talent Development, whose mission is “to recognize, nurture and support profoundly intelligent young people and to provide opportunities for them to develop their talents to make a positive difference.” “I am honored to be named a Davidson Fellow and am excited to join a community of great young thinkers,” says Fabrizio, a Newark Academy graduate and Cornell University freshman. “Being named a Fellow further motivates me to raise questions and seek ways to solve problems, in all aspects of my life.” COMPILED BY CINDY SCHWEICH HANDLER > COURTESY REVEL YOGA
