Dearest friends - this post has a few parts. Read on!
💓
Thank you, thank you, thank you to every person who joined us on Sunday to celebrate our incredible studio and/or gave a donation in lieu of attending (we missed you but we are so grateful for your support!). Each one of you is a piece of why and how our little space is able to exist in this world.
🎉
I am sharing a couple of the pieces of literature we had out this weekend. Disclaimer: These are, OF COURSE, not true to every studio. There are many beautiful studios that exist and share a similar set of beliefs and standards as we do. This is why this comparison chart does not name studios (or even chains of studios), rather simply says “Not &ttww”. It’s not us. It’s not every other studio. It’s simply shared experiences of what has been felt in other places and spaces and what we choose instead.
💕
My dear friend, amazing artist, and member of &ttww, PO, designed these shirts for the studio. I asked them to create something that would embody who we are and what we stand for as a collective. This is a hard ask. They nailed it. The proceeds from these shirts will go to two places: &ttww mutual aid and ICE relief efforts via ICIRR. They are $25 each. If you’d like to order one, message me.
💓
If you missed us on Sunday but still want to support the studio, know any size donation is deeply appreciated. Your dollars help keep yoga affordable for all, keep our lights on, and keep our doors open.
✌️
In gratitude,
Marissa

We’re having our annual(ish) fundraiser to support the studio AND also to celebrate 6️⃣ whole years of providing affordable and accessible yoga and mindfulness, building a community where all people feel safe, welcome, and loved, and using our sacred space as a platform for social justice.

This community, our community is special - ask anyone. I know I’m biased, but I also know this studio has been a lifeline, a home, and a safe space for countless people.

I’m sure you’ve heard - We’re a bit different over here:
• I don’t have a long roster of teachers - to teach at &ttww, you absolutely must believe in the power of community and be an active part of ours, stand up for the rights of others, and be a damn good teacher.
• I pay fairly and always will - I don’t pay based on “your numbers” - what bu****it is that, anyways? I pay based on the fact that you are human and a skilled teacher.
• I will always fight for justice and equality…loudly - and that means this community does, too. My business is in fact a representation of my morals and values. Wild, right?
• Yoga should be accessible. Yoga should be affordable. Yoga should be inclusive. Our studio offers quality practice at a cost people can afford. It’s not about “prioritizing your spending” or “your health is worth it, isn’t it?” People need to eat, pay bills and rent, and take care of their families. Yoga and other forms of self care and fitness are in fact at the bottom of the list. I get it. This is why I do every single thing I can do to ensure you’re able to show up without having to choose. You (yes, you!) get to do yoga and be in community without sacrificing another part of my our well being because you are worthwhile.

I could write endless essays on this six year old babe I call my second home, but you should just come out to a class or an event and see for yourself.

Come to our fundraiser and help us continue moving forward and doing what we do. If you can’t come, there’s other ways to support.

In gratitude,
M.
