This practice isn’t ordinary — and neither are you.
As I was cleaning the floor of the studio earlier today, I found myself reflecting on something I often say in class — something I sometimes need to remember myself:
This practice is not the norm.
It’s rare.
It’s quiet.
And not many people do it.
We live in a world that moves fast and distracts easily. The kind of work we do here — slowing down, tuning in, breathing deep — it’s quietly radical. And so often, it’s the very thing that holds us together when the noise of life gets too loud.
I wish I had known about it earlier.
I wish someone had told me: “There’s a space where you can come back to yourself.”
Even just one class might have shifted the course.
And so if you’ve found your way here — even if it’s just been once or twice — I want you to know how significant that is.
Because yoga isn’t a fad.
It’s not something we do to check a box or fill a calendar.
It’s something we return to because it works.
It reminds us who we are beneath the swirl.
It gives us a voice — a kind one — that says: it’s okay to soften now.
And in a world full of pressure and posturing, that’s not nothing.
That’s everything.
With love,
