As The Foundry turns 20 this year, we want to look back and reminisce on where we started.🪬Starting with :
🦋Terri Villavaso 🦋
“My practice started in 2004, and I was still running a lot back then. I could feel my body healing through yoga, and the mental and emotional benefits were undeniable.
I became obsessed with reading student testimonials from Bikram’s Training. I tried to forget about it, telling myself it wasn’t the right choice for me. How could I leave my family for nine whole weeks and go through all of that?!
Eventually, I surrendered. Nicole endorsed me to go to training, and the anxiety kicked in full force. I even saw a therapist/hypnotist a few times to calm myself down and convince myself I could actually go… lol.
Now here I am—almost 20 years of teaching later. I adore every teacher and student who has been part of my journey. I’ve stepped on my mat over 4,000 times. Cheers to 2026! ♥️🔥”
Thank you for being a part of The Foundry Fam for all these years Terri and being such an inspiration. We appreciate you more than you know!💙
