Okra Just as well, we want to create a space for each and every person to feel welcome and at home - no matter where you're from or how good your downward dog is.

Okra - that weird and beautiful underdog of the vegetable kingdom, that odd and gummy and delicious staple of southern cuisine that has, in its time, become a symbol of this place that many of us call home. We envision this space and all of the components of Okra as a refreshing change from your standard fare of yoga and wellness centers, one that is uniquely representative of and involved with th

e community that supports it. While we'll still be Om-ing and Namaste-ing away, we never want to lose touch with who we are and the community that we are a part of, and that's a big part of what 'Okra' means to us. There is much important work to be done to build and strengthen the Plaza-Midwood and greater Charlotte community, and we are excited to be your neighborhood healing center that takes the idea of community involvement seriously. We want to be a place for the impossible and unlikely to come alive through celebrating the pursuit of our unique, individual passions and creativity. Okra, we believe, is a perfect embodiment of the kind of uncommon beauty we will cultivate in this new space. So even if you don't like the vegetable (we'll forgive you) - come celebrate the growth of something new in Plaza Midwood, make yourself at home, turn your own leaves up to the sun and soak in some inspiration, some change, some relaxation - whatever you need to become the fullest, most vibrant expression of yourself, we hope you can find it here at Okra. Everyone is welcome at the Original Kingdom of the Really Awesome, a.k.a OKRA :)
