Pride Month, Juneteenth, Community and Father's Day! June is PRIDE Month, a dedication and celebration of LGBTQIA+ rights and progress.

Don’t Baby Your Back

Don’t baby your back! The cries of “I feel it in my back” or  “my back is sore!” can sometimes be heard around The Studio. And unless there is a sharp, sudden pain, or one that lingers for a long time - we say…that’s okay! Your back muscles, just like any other muscle group will get sore if you use them, especially if they’re weak. Sometimes we leave class and feel it in our abs or feel it in our shoulders, but it doesn’t seem to elicit the same response as when we feel it in our backs.  It’s been [...]

Our Annual Staff Training on January 4th focused on Antiracism led by Dr. Monea. Dr. Monea, a racial justice speaker, trainer and yoga teacher, guided us through many thought-provoking activities over Zoom, including examining our role in systemic racism, while outlining key points in the antiracism learning journey like; take the lessons and leave the stories, expect & accept non-closure, listen for understanding, and anticipate impact.

🌟LIFTing into the New Year🌟 You need to lift weights! Full stop. Skeletal muscle is the organ of longevity. (Don't believe us? Check out this podcast with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and Erin Holt). Loss of muscle mass, strength and function starts at age 30 at a rate of 3-8% per decade and increases after the age of 60. How can we slow that roll? Resistance training for strength (ie lifting heavy) and adding in short, intense bursts of activity (ie Inferno Hiit) are effective. Let's face it, your athletic performance and independence in advanced age are dependent on [...]
