NPR LIFE KIT ENDORSES DRIFT 🎙️💪

OK, they didn’t exactly call us out by name, but what they’re saying in a recent Life Kit episode all about why strength training is for everyone sure sounds like an endorsement  👀

According to NPR, research is clear that lighter weights with more reps OR heavier weights with fewer reps both deliver comparable results when it comes to building muscle and strength.  Sound familiar?

✨ Sculpt Flow = lighter weights, higher reps, longer time under tension

-OR-

🔥 Sculpt CircHiit = heavier weights, fewer reps, max effort

Both science backed and offered almost daily at DRiFT!

The only rule? It needs to feel hard at the end … like you’re really pushing through those final reps.  That’s the sweet spot. And that’s all found at  DRiFT.

And NPR didn’t stop there. Strength training boosts your metabolism, increases longevity and prevents injury  AND is a powerful tool for managing anxiety and depression.

Oh, and recovery? They’re big on it. Rest between sets and between workouts is part of what makes the next session feel productive.

That’s why we built recovery INTO your week:

🌊 Dynamic Vinyasa: your active recovery day. Move, sweat and reset.

🕯️ Mindful Vinyasa or Sunday Slow Down: for your full rest day. Because rest IS training.

It’s never too late to start, and you can make progress anywhere, with minimal equipment — no experience required.

That’s literally just… DRiFT. 🤍

📕 Story time 📕
Meet the incredible human behind the tasty treatments haven available at DRiFT: YeonJung Darling! In February, YeonJung approached Laree and asked if we could do a bake sale to help amplify the efforts for the Karma Yoga Project: raising funds for Minnesota families in crisis due to ICE’s occupation. Naturally, it was a resounding “YES!” You may have enjoyed the incredible cranberry pecan cookies and/or banana cream cups that have raised hundreds of dollars for Minneapolis communities and now Declan Community Free Clinic.
•
Well, in a recent class, her identity was confirmed as the chef of these tasty treats and with a bit of (loving) peer pressure, YeonJung agreed to whip up another batch of goods before her brief sabbatical from the studio this spring.
•
And voilá: raspberry lemon bars appeared at DRiFT this morning thanks to loving hands YeonJung! Suggested $5/bar - ONLY twelve left after this morning’s classes! The remainder available for pick up Saturday morning until gone. First come - first serve. Reserve one by commenting below (or DM-ing us)!
•
Thank you YeonJung, and all our bakers, makers and givers, to support the Karma Yoga Project’s efforts to uplift the liberation of all - near & far. The project has raised over $43,000 in less than four years!

In yoga, Shakti is the vital force of energy and transformation: the fire that awakens strength. While Shanti is the state of peace and calm that arises when we soften and release. When practiced together, Shakti and Shanti remind us that true balance comes from honoring both energy and rest, power and surrender.
💜
This 75-minute class begins in a heated room (90 degrees) with energetic movement, flowing through a dynamic power flow to spark Shakti. As the practice peaks, we transition into cooling postures and an extended savasana, closing with chilled eucalyptus towels to invite in a cooling experience from many senses.
💜
Previous experience is encouraged, but all levels are welcome. Please bring a water bottle. Sweat towels available for complimentary use.

Included in memberships + packages | $25 drop-in for community member

STRONG DOESN’T HAVE AN AGE LIMIT.

At DRiFT, we’re passionate about understanding your body through every stage of life. That’s why we love Dr. Mary Claire Haver’s The New Menopause — the honest, science-backed guide to navigating perimenopause, menopause, and everything in between. These transitions deserve to be understood, not just survived.

Creatine isn’t just for bodybuilders anymore. Millions of people worldwide now take it daily: humans of all ages, athletes, and everyday people who want to feel stronger and think clearer. With 50+ years of research behind it, Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, and the International Society of Sports Nutrition all back the science.
Here’s what it does for YOUR body:
✅ Builds & preserves lean muscle at every age
✅ Protects bone density — especially during hormonal transitions
✅ Sharpens memory, focus & reasoning
✅ Supports mood & emotional wellbeing
✅ Safe, natural & backed by decades of research
Dr. Mary Claire Haver calls it essential and the science couldn’t agree more.

Without further adieu, Cymbiotika Creatine is now available at DRiFT!
🛒 Single packet: $3.99
📦 Box of 20: $49.99
Try one, or stock up. Either way, it’s right here waiting for you. DRiFT members, your 15% off discount certainly applies to this! Want to order a supply? We can do that, too! Email laree@driftlessyoga.org.
🫐 Also new: Cymbiotika Liposomal Elderberry. Advanced absorption for powerful immune support, all year long. $48/ box - $2.99/pouch
And we think the Elderberry mixes well with ‘s Red Berry or Machu Peachu Tea!

Both available in-studio at DRiFT Strength & Yoga Center.

Thanks to for capturing these great shots!

Movement belongs to everyone.

We’re proud to introduce the DRiFT Community Supported Package: a confidential, judgment-free initiative offering 10-class packages at 50% or 100% off for those who need it most.

With Medicaid cuts, risng costs and economic pressure hitting so many of us right now, we believe grassroots programs that meet people where they are aren’t a luxury. They are a necessity.

Ten packages are available each calendar year. Valid on our regularly scheduled weekly classes. Applications are private and reviewed only by studio owner. If your current financial situation makes consistent attendance a stretch, this was made for you.

Believe in programs like this?

🩶Like and share with your communities!

And if you’re in a position to give, we’d love your support in keeping this program alive: cash, check, or Venmo . Every contribution goes directly toward sharing movement with someone who needs it.
