IT WAS NEVER JUST A PHASE 🖤

2 weeks from today. 🎸

Take yourself back to the time before smartphones. A time of scream singing in your car to a burned CD filled with all your favorite songs.

Join Anna for a Pop Punk playlist, plus planks. Avril Lavigne, My Chemical Romance, Paramore, Boys Like Girls & many more.

Special thanks to our talented community member, Cecelia, for sending me a list of 40 absolute time pieces to make this playlist not only so much easier for me to create but also bringing it to a level I never could have.

Schedule Changes Happening Soon 💚

This winter, we had our fullest schedule EVER, with 28 regularly scheduled weekly classes. & Honestly, I loved it. I love being at the studio with you all. I loved being able to gain more experience teaching by simply teaching more classes.

That being said - it’s not exactly sustainable to teach 9-10 classes weekly when the majority of them are strength based. 😅 Having the energy to personally attend a class or do other forms of movement has mostly gone out the window. For the longevity of inspired teaching, I need that back!

As I prepare to be SO much busier this summer with my other business, Loony Balloonies and Face Painting, AND likely adding on an additional opportunity that I’m excited for, I’m needing to refocus my energy. House projects, business projects, hobbies outside of yoga & making time to see friends in other parts of Iowa & beyond. To keep my cup full, I need to do this all before summer gets here and time is no longer on my side.

So! I am moving things around a bit. You all & I have been loving this new Uplifting style & I’ve been loving seeing so many smiles walking out the door 🥹 Joy is something our world could use a little more of, so this style is here to stay. ✨

I am taking Tuesday/Thursday Noons off the schedule, while swapping Monday 5:45pm & Sunday 4pm to Uplifting Hot Vinyasa.

This week is the last week of Tuesday/Thursday noons. I’m out of town the first days of March, so we are starting weekly Uplifting Hot Vinyasa the following week on Sunday 4pm & Monday 5:45pm; March 8th & 9th.

Allison will be teaching Grounded Hot Vinyasa on Monday, March 2nd at 5:45pm. There will not be a 4pm class on Sunday, March 1st.

Catch a pop-up class on Friday the 6th! 6:30pm Hip Hop Hot Vinyasa with Allison (AKA DJ A-Pinny)

Our additional Candlelight class (Sundays @ 7:30pm) is hanging on a little longer than the original 2 month plan! We do not have an ending date planned for this class time yet. When it does end, it’s just a break. Please know we plan to reintroduce it again in November 💚

Thank you all for continuing to support our space as we evolve alongside our community ✨

This morning during Uplifting Hot Vinyasa, we began with this written piece from Anne Lamott. We talked about how, especially during these faster paced flows, it's a whole lot less important to do each pose exactly how it's cued compared to the importance of following your intuition & allowing your breath to be a guide. Flowing without second guessing the little stuff. Trusting yourself & moving freely.

We shared a fun, twisty, windmilly flow with an uplifting playlist. I've been loving how joy filled these Uplifting Hot Vinyasa classes can be! & today - we danced ✨

Beginning the 2nd week of March, you'll be able to catch Uplifting Hot Vinyasa at different times throughout the week! Stay tuned 💚

From Sydney:

I found New Dawn through friends! I’m not sure how long I’ve been there but I was seeking a welcoming environment and that’s truly what you get when you walk through the doors! It always feels like coming home. I’ve always loved the community here, it truly makes me feel more connected to my practice!

Stepping onto my mat has always grounded me but in this space, I truly feel the grounding energy surrounding me. I love that I never feel judged, I can keep my focus on my mat but always feed off those around me because they feel safe and grounded too. I love allllllll the instructors and how they each bring something different to their teaching style and practice! I am grateful to be able to grow in my friendships with likeminded people!

From Martin:

I first visited New Dawn Yoga in August of 2022. Back then, I had been privileged with some wonderful yoga safe havens across Iowa. New to Cedar Falls, I hoped to find a new home base and community. Luckily, I landed at the doorstep of New Dawn.

I came through the studio a few times during my first semester at UNI, getting some great opportunities to take class from Sarah, the previous owner. Soon—after only a few times of getting to know me—she invited me to join on teaching staff. We learned we got our respective certifications through the same studio and had even been at the same events in time and space without even knowing each other. It was all so serendipitous.

I didn’t think I was ready to teach but she inspired me to go for it. I said, yes! Honestly, I might do anything Sarah could ask of me. She’s that remarkable of a woman.

Since taking on that role, New Dawn has helped shape and guide me through a spiritual transformation. I arrived to CF at 28 going on 29, still feeling like a boy. Now at 32, I’m beginning to understand what it is to be a man. Of principle, discipline, empathy, and kindness. I have made many mistakes while I’ve been in town here, and New Dawn has continued to be the space where I can continue to reflect, heal, and grow with a powerful, like-minded community. We honor the feminine, the equal, the just, the truth.

New Dawn has introduced me to all kinds of people who have become my friends and support systems. Professional and familial relationships, with everything in between. Some faces, I swear my soul had met before.

Then there’s Anna Love, our new and fearless leader. Someone who has taken the time and interest to get to know me a little more personally. Anna has gotten to know so many aspects of who I am, and continues to champion me through whatever life throws our way. I am happy to be her friend, and only hope to offer the perspective she shows me. To look at life lovingly, with a wink and a smile.

Being a part of this community, I have had countless moments of elevation, joy, and newfound bliss—which we have gotten to share together! Healing, in the form of a collective space and thread. A common mantra of love and light, as well as balance within all things. Honoring the light and the darkness, the various seasons of nature, and those of our own cycles.

New Dawn has seen me through many seasons and chapters. Now, during its 10 year anniversary, New Dawn is carrying me through an important pinnacle of my personal life, as well. As you know from my teaching, all things fall into alignment when you allow them to do so. I believe that’s exactly what New Dawn provides to each of us who has invested into this space and community.

Thank you to each member who continues to support New Dawn with their presence, energy, and resources. You make this all possible. I love my job because of each one of you!

As above, so below, and all that good s**t,

Martin Paulin

From Allison:

Being a new teacher who had not practiced at the studio, I wasn't sure what the overall studio atmosphere was going to be like, if it was going to be the right fit for me, etc. Essentially, I was on "their" - "their", meaning our New Dawn folks' - turf. However, everyone and everything made me think and feel differently.

There is a certain feeling you get from entering the studio when you walk in the door and take off your shoes, and even more so once you get settled in the studio room with your mat. Many people find yoga studios an intimidating place to come to, especially if you're new to the studio or new to yoga. But I didn't feel that at all! I immediately felt accepted and welcomed, even if people didn't explicitly tell me so.

That feeling or thought of this studio being "theirs", quickly became "ours" in my mind. I've also heard similar things from our yogis, so I know I'm not alone in this feeling.

First off, shout out to all the teachers here at New Dawn. Everyone has not only shifted and enlightened my mind in my personal yoga practice, but also everyone has encouraged me to go deeper and seek more clarity through education or other ways of practicing. I truly believe that is the strength of our teacher fold here at New Dawn - the constant curiosity, passion, and love of the practice of yoga. Thank you to Sarah for creating this safe space for everyone and thank you to Anna for continuing to cultivate an amazing culture at New Dawn!

Second off, shout out to literally everyone that steps foot at New Dawn. I don't think people realize the absolute power that takes hold when we all come together for a yoga practice. Better yet, all of our yogis are all people that are uniquely talented, kind-hearted, and simply amazing people. You all help in creating that same culture that our teachers and especially our owner help curate!

Thank you to New Dawn. 10 years is an amazing feat and I'm excited to see what 10 more years looks like for us!

-With much love and care, Allison Pin (A-Pinny)

From Lindsay:

I found New Dawn in 2011 when it was SOL Yoga. I had been teaching for a while, but never tried hot yoga. When SOL opened I tried a class then inquired about teaching.
Teaching yoga is my joy job and I get much more than just a paycheck. The community of students and teachers are always uplifting and supportive. I love taking classes as much as I like teaching and everyone here has a special gift for being an instructor.

My children weren’t even born when I started teaching. It’s been amazing to have them come to classes and show them how moving your body, tuning into your physical and mental space and being surrounded by an incredible community positively shapes your life. We’ve also had a lot of great laughs over the years! I always feel at peace and am so happy to be WARM finally.

I hope it continues to grow and offer a peaceful spot for people to land.
