March Member of the Month: Brittany
Brittany first found Lotus while visiting Wire Park. She had always wanted to try hot yoga, and after her first Hot Power Flow with Ally, she was hooked. When she learned that Lotus would be adding a reformer studio, she was thrilled — it had been years since she practiced on a reformer, and she loves having both yoga and Pilates available in one convenient place.
What Brittany loves most about her practice is how it challenges her both mentally and physically. She appreciates that every class and instructor brings something unique, so no two classes are ever the same. Her favorite class is Hot Yoga Sculpt (Pilates Fusion) — the perfect (and most challenging!) combination of yoga and Pilates. She also loves Half Moon in yoga and Teaser on the reformer.
Although Brittany has often felt intimidated by traditional gyms, she knew immediately that Lotus was different. She noticed people of all ages and at various stages in their fitness journeys, which made the space feel welcoming and encouraging. What has kept her coming back for the past two years is the instructors. The encouragement from Lauren and the entire teaching team, whether it’s a simple check-in text or a shout-out in class to celebrate an achievement, means more than she can say.
Brittany and her family relocated to Watkinsville from Atlanta three years ago for work and were excited to return to the Athens area, which holds a special place in their hearts. She and her husband have two children, Jules (11) and Jane (9). When they’re not at practices and games, they love to travel, attend UGA sporting events, and go to concerts. As Brittany says, the live music scene in Athens simply can’t be beat.
We love having Brittany as a part of the Lotus Family. Help us congratulate her!
