Hello friends,
February marks a very special moment for us at Stava Yoga—our 2nd anniversary. Two years of showing up, breathing together, moving intentionally, and building something rooted in care, consistency, and community. Whether you’ve been here since the beginning or joined us somewhere along the way, we’re deeply grateful to practice alongside you.
This month, we’re also reflecting on the yogic concept of Tapas.
In yoga philosophy, Tapas is often described as discipline, inner heat, or sustained effort—not the harsh, push-through kind, but the steady devotion to what matters. Tapas is choosing to return to the mat when it would be easier not to. It’s patience, resilience, and the quiet strength that builds over time through small, consistent acts of care.
As we move through February—often a month that asks a lot of us—Tapas invites us to stay connected to our intentions with compassion. To keep tending the inner flame, even gently. Especially gently.
Our anniversary feels like a living expression of Tapas: not perfection, not intensity for intensity’s sake, but commitment, heart, and trust in the process.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Your presence, energy, and openness are what make Stava Yoga what it is. We’re so looking forward to continuing to grow, learn, and practice together in the year ahead.
