“This feels like church.”

And don’t we know it…

From the candles to the stained glass to the scent of sage that meets you when you walk through the doors, everything about your experience at Sanctuary is intended to be something sacred, something set apart, something other than the ordinary.

Just like church.

But unlike church, we don’t require belief for you to belong. You don’t have to profess a creed to find connection. We’ll take you just as you are and share with you the good news that who you are has always been good.

So, come.
Experience something sacred.

Classes seven days a week. Somatic Sessions, Just Yoga, Singing Circles, Sound Meditation, and more. Find out more and register at sanctuarystudiosqc.com

Sometimes the sky will remind us what we've known all along.

Every Full Moon is an invitation to expand into parts of ourselves that just needed a little light to be known, and at Sanctuary, we honor this part of the lunar cycle with a ritual that combines music, movement, meditation, and sound therapy to nourish both your body and your soul.

Join us November 5th at 7 PM.
Come as you are. Pay what you can. Every body belongs.

We are not a yoga studio.

Weird, right?

We look like a yoga studio. We smell like a yoga studio. Google even says that’s who we are which must make it true.

But it’s not - and while we don’t really care if Google gets us, we definitely want YOU to, so we thought we’d talk about it a bit.

We are a group, a gathering, a community of people looking for ways to be in our bodies that help make the experience of being human a little less lonely.

We offer classes - both yoga and somatic - to make movement accessible.
We grow food in our community garden to remember the power of planting something nourishing and offering it back to the people around us.
We offer ritual ways to honor the movement of the moon and the passing of seasons.
We gather around grief and help you tend to your suffering.
We invite belonging without requiring belief.

We are something set apart, something other than the ordinary.
Come see for yourself.

That's it. That's the whole truth.

There isn’t a person alive who doesn’t know loss. It is part of the human experience.

But just because it is common to us all doesn’t mean we know what to do with it. The complexity of grief is something we were never meant to hold on our own, and so at Sanctuary, we find a way to honor the experience together.

Whether you’ve lost a person, a pet, a hope, a dream, a sense of self, or the ability to keep going, all loss belongs with us, and Tending the Garden is a place to plant the experience of grief and care for it in community.

Tending the Garden is a pay-what-you-can offering guided by Erica Denise Franzen, LMT, LST, Shamanic Counsel and Lauren Gil Hayes, LCSW.

“The Seed in the Dark”
October 25th, 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
A quiet, 2-hour gathering.
Includes sensory exploration, sound bath, and gentle witnessing. You don’t need to have attended Session 1 to join The Seed in the Dark.

What to expect:
A place to be with your grief in community
Invitations to move, rest, write, and reflect in response to loss
Shared silence and sound
No fixing, no performing--just tending

Come as you are. Bring something small for the opening altar if you’d like. All grief is welcome.

We know what you’re thinking… a Singing Circle?!? I can’t sing and even if I could, why would I sing with strangers?

Well thanks so much for asking. We would love to tell you.

Because it is GOOD for your brain and your body. (Google “the impact of group singing on the nervous system” and prepare to be astounded.)
Because it is a powerful way to find connection to each other without the risk of self-disclosure.
Because we are not meant to be alone.

So, come as you are - tone-deaf or classically trained, every body belongs.

To plant in the dark is to trust that the sun will rise ☾

Every New Moon is an invitation to plant our intentions under the dark sky and at Sanctuary, we honor this part of the lunar cycle
with a ritual that combines music, movement, meditation, and sound therapy to nourish both your body and your soul.

Join us on October 21st at 7 PM for this New Moon in Libra. Plant your intentions is the rich soil of your rest. Watch as they flourish for many months to come.
