I am so thrilled with the positive things happening in my life - in the worst of all possible times, amazing opportunities (beyond any dream I imagined!) are coming - and it’s because of all of YOU 💕

I am so beyond grateful for those who have supported - helped carry me - through the darkest season of my life. Every single act - big and small - mattered to me. It gave me strength and hope.

I love you all and am blessed by your presence 💕

NEW CLASS ALERT💕

Spring is here and I’m bringing a brand new class to the studio…

Dance Cardio + B***y Lab

We start with fun, sweaty dance cardio to wake up your whole body — good music, big energy, zero pressure to be perfect.

Then we move into B***y Lab: glutes, legs, deep core and that slow burn finish that makes you feel powerful walking out the door.

Think:
dance party ➝ strong legs ➝ lifted b***y ➝ glowing mood.

No punishing workouts.
No weird fitness trends.
Just smart, effective training from a barre & Pilates master trainer who knows how the body actually works.

And yes — it’s pelvic floor safe, joint friendly, and welcoming to every level. My classes are full of women from 18–80 and everyone moves at their own pace.

Starting in April

Monday
Wednesday
Friday
9:00 AM

📍 Academy of Dance Arts in Portage, MI

Come dance.
Come sweat.
Come build a b***y that would make a Georgia peach farmer proud. 🍑

See you in class. Deets & sign-up coming soon!

B***y Lab is coming in April 🍑

These are 30-minute focused classes.
Short. Intentional. Very effective.

No crazy promises- just smart, layered glute work from a barre + Pilates master trainer who actually understands the body — breath, pelvic floor, alignment, all of it.

The raw video is the proof.
The control is the proof.
The work is the proof.

I love glute training. I study it. I coach it. I refine it.
I probably know peaches better than a Georgia farmer at this point. 🤣🍑

Come train with me.
Let’s do this the right way.

{wordz by stepha - march 1 2026}

What do you do
when the champagne’s gone flat?

When you’re waking up bloody —
laid out on your back?

When you’re looking at God
but He ain’t looking back?

When the skyline is gold
but your vision goes black?

Cross on his neck.
Grip on my throat.
That’s not passion —
that’s a chokehold.

The queen in the penthouse
gasping for breath.
Diamonds still dancing.
Spirit in debt.

He didn’t show up
with horns and flame.
He showed up with roses.
Then you hop a private plane.

You think it’s freedom
’cause the jets take flight?
You think it’s love
’cause the s*x feels right?

You think you’re chosen
’cause the money’s gettin’ tall?
The devil just lets you
ball before the fall.

And the fall feels good.
That’s the trick.
Marble floors.
Velvet brick.

Skyline views.
Champagne rain.
Almost dying
in perfect pain.

And leaving?

Leaving is ego withdrawal.
No applause.
No late-night calls.

Leaving is breaking
your own addiction —

Not to drugs.
But to the attention.

Not to the man.
To the illusion.

Not to the money.
To the delusion.

It’s killing the crown
you bled to wear.
Killing the need
to be everywhere.

Killing the version
that loved the throne.

Because the real power?

Being alone.

Not lonely.

Alone.

Finally my own.

the most powerful thing a woman can do is be obsessed with herself — not in vanity, but in devotion.

to know her rhythms.
to honor her body.
to study her patterns like sacred text.
to become fluent in what lights her up and what drains her life force.

a woman who is turned toward herself cannot be easily manipulated, rushed, or defined by the noise of the world. she becomes anchored — steady in her worth, clear in her boundaries, unapologetic in her desires.

self-obsession is really self-reverence.

it is choosing to pour energy into your healing, your growth, your pleasure, your craft, your mind — until your presence feels like home to yourself.

from that place, love is no longer a hunger. it is an offering.

become so deeply devoted to your own becoming that anything misaligned simply falls away.

that is power.

There is something powerful that happens when you allow yourself to slow down — not just mentally, but physically, breath by breath.

Yin yoga in the salt cave offers a rare kind of pause. The kind where the nervous system can finally settle, where the body is given permission to soften, and where tension that has quietly accumulated begins to release.

In the gentle glow of the cave, supported by mineral-rich air and deep stillness, the outside noise fades. Long, supported holds invite the fascia to hydrate and unwind. Breath becomes slower and more spacious. The nervous system shifts toward regulation — away from urgency and toward ease.

Many people notice a subtle but meaningful change: shoulders dropping, jaw unclenching, thoughts becoming quieter, a deeper sense of grounding returning. It’s not about forcing relaxation — it’s about creating the conditions where the body naturally remembers how to rest.

This practice is especially supportive if you’ve been feeling overstimulated, carrying stress, navigating emotional heaviness, or simply craving a moment to reconnect with yourself in a calm and nurturing environment.

Inside the cave, there is a shared sense of quiet presence — a space where you can simply be, breathe, and allow your system to recalibrate.

Come experience what it feels like to step out of the rush and into a slower rhythm, where healing is gentle and deeply supported.

We have a few spots left for class this Wednesday (2/18) 6 pm at the Zen Dens salt cave!

$25/$20 student rate. Dm me to reserve.
