FIN.
Yesterday I handed the keys back and just like that the studio is no longer.
I started this biz when I had just turned 24 and seemingly knew very little. Nearly two and a half years later I’m so damn proud of what WE created in this space. I’ve always said that the studio would just be 4 walls without the love poured into it by the students who filled the mats and the teachers that held the space for them.
When I first inspected the property to see if it was right, I was skeptical. It was red brick, cold and super dark, even with the natural light and the (excessive) lights all on! I came home and was flicking through Instagram, as you do, and I came across a quote “Old bones, fresh start, new beginnings.” And I knew. I signed the lease that week.
I never knew what it would become. I never really intended to create a business, I just wanted a space to teach seeing as I was fresh out of teacher training and no one would hire me with no experience. Fast forward 6 months and I was able to quit my full time job and work for myself.
The universe has a funny way of giving you opportunities and challenges when you need them most. I strongly believe that I was given this opportunity to meet all of my beautiful students, most of which I would now call friends!
It is not goodbye friends, it’s just another fresh start and new beginnings.

*if you have messaged me in the last week, I’m slowly getting back to you all! I’m about half way through about 100 messages/emails. So if I haven’t replied to you, I promise I will! Thank you for your patience 🙏🏼
