IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT 🖤
It is with great sadness that we announce the closure of Yoginah, from 30th June 2023.
Nothing about our 3.5 years as a business has been easy or a ‘normal’ climate. From opening 5 weeks before a global pandemic & multiple lockdowns to a cost of living crisis. We have tried to be resilient, adapt & hang on as best as we could, doing all that we can to promote this space & explore all avenues possible with the resources available to us. Unfortunately, we have now arrived in a position where we cannot continue. The Yoga Studio model as it stands today, for us rarely breaks even & is no longer a sustainable business. We are not in a position to obtain or invest further & have also been advised against this.
We & many others have deemed Yoginah a safe haven & community, where meaningful connections have been made. We should all be very proud about what we have created together. The teachers, karma Yogis and all of you that continued to show up, share and practice. Yoginah’s closing is no ones fault & although it is so very sad, we will always be grateful to each and every one of you.
We will continue to offer the same schedule until 30th June, so please do continue to practice with us till then.
We understand this may be incredibly sad for those who deem Yoginah a very special & meaningful part of your lives & we are so sorry for this loss. We really hope that we have done a good job in sharing the practice of Yoga with you in every sense that has set you up with a practice for life or at least a thirst to learn more. The teachers of Yoginah are incredible & do teach in other spaces so please do continue to practice with them if you can. Purdy may also teach some classes in the future and arrange events for our community to come back together, however right now needs to take some time to process everything.
Purdy & Emily’s Yoga retreat in Norfolk in October will still happen as a separate venture.
The next two weeks will be challenging for many and heartbreaking for us, but we really hope that we can use them to celebrate the space & practice together as a community until 30th June 2023.
With love and gratitude,
Purdy and Adam 🙏🖤
