Soul Echo Yoga & Wellness

05/26/2026

Namaste all,

It is bittersweet writing this note after almost 2 years as Soul Echo Yoga & Wellness and Being Collective, I have decided to shift focus from the business, to my family.
With the birth of my second son this past January, my husband and I had many thoughtful conversations regarding how to move forward in our new chapter.

While I am saddened to be stepping back as leaseholder and partner in Being Collective, I am excited to see what is next for our shared space and the continuation of a community centered vision. Being Collective as the arching energy/concept (led by Mark and Savi), will continue on — growing and spreading its wings in new and exciting ways in and around the community, we may just not have our roots and home base in the current physical location after June.

Please know Savi, Mark, and I are actively looking for a collaborator to take over the lease of the space along with Ben, our landlord and owner of Voyageurs Bakehouse. Our highest hope is for someone to step in and transition rather seamlessly - and I am hopeful that I may continue being able to teach in the space. If you or someone you know may be interested in helping to support the continuation of the lease on our current space, get in touch! We’d love to discuss possibilities and collaboration ideas.

We will continue to keep you posted with updates as plans come together and we get closer to the end of June, when the lease is complete. Classes will continue as scheduled, we’ll keep you updated as to the final class day as that info becomes known to us.

What we have created together over this time is very special to me and I am honored to have been part of your journey! This is not a "goodbye," simply a "see you around."

Peace, Light, & Love,
Elisabeth
