Building community always starts with 1 person. Then 2, 3, 4 and eventually a Founding Five. Five then becomes a thriving web of practicing yogis enriching the culture and community at the studio.
These five Members were the first to forge the energy and community here. We are so grateful for them and as a thank you, last month lululemon Seattle Premium Outlets gifted these Members a full outfit, empowering them to leave limits behind in 2025.
This month, we are highlighting these Founding Five Members with a feature on our socials and a blog post. We encourage you to click the link to the blog posts below and join us in celebrating your fellow yogis!
It takes the first few who believe to initiate the landslide of yoga love we all enjoy today.
Thank you to our Founding Five AND to lululemon Seattle Premium Outlets, PLUS all of you that show up to practice with us day in and day out.

How does your yoga practice and how it makes you feel differ from other hobbies you enjoy in your life?
It really makes me slow down and forget about a lot of the business outside the studio doors - both personal and worldly business. I feel like life and time passes us by so fast, but yoga is where it all really seems to stop. ...to allow us to just be. ...to allow us to be us. ...to allow us to be present.
