No fixing. No forcing. No reinvention required.

✨ WINTER SOLSTICE ENERGY ✨

The darkest day of the year is almost here and it’s not asking us to push harder.
It’s asking us to rest.

As we head into winter, The Velvet Mat is doing the same:
slowing down, turning inward, and dreaming up what’s next.
And trust us… 2026 is going to be special.

Big things grow in the dark.
And we can’t wait to share what’s coming:
🔥 Kage Rage Yoga
✨ New workshops
📚 Teacher trainings
🌙 Retreats
💜 More community magic

If you’re still gifting this season (or gifting future-you), wellness is always the right answer.
Velvet Mat gift cards are available now.

Rest. Reflect. Receive.
We’ll meet you on the mat soon. ✨🖤

Introducing KAGE RAGE YOGA 🔥 (Born on Rock Radio. Reborn on the Mat.)

🔥 KAGE RAGE YOGA IS HERE 🔥

Smash. Scream. Stretch. Surrender.

If you know Tampa Bay rock radio… you probably know Jesse Kage, my husband and legendary voice of Tampa Bay Rock and Atlanta rock radio for 25 years.

And you may remember one of his most iconic on-air bits:

✨ KAGE RAGE
Every day at 5pm, callers raged about whatever was driving them crazy and the best rant won concert tickets.
It was wild.
It was cathartic.
It was real.

Well…
I’m taking it to the mat. 🖤🔥

INTRODUCING: KAGE RAGE YOGA

A fully immersive, primal, cathartic release ritual where wellness meets rock energy.

🔥 Guided SMASH therapy
🔥 Optional screaming (yes, really)
🔥 Yoga flow for all beings
🔥 Guided meditation + journaling
🔥 Social time + refreshments
🔥 AND Jesse bringing his signature energy to the experience

This isn’t “pretty yoga.”
This is let-that-sh*t-GO yoga.

First Event Is LIVE

KAGE RAGE YOGA: Smash. Scream. Stretch. Surrender.
Spots are very limited.
RSVP → thevelvetmat.com

Start 2026 with a full-body purge and a clean energetic slate.

Let’s rage. Let’s rise. Let’s release.
