Hi everyone,
I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and say how excited I am to be joining this amazing community as the new owner of the studio.
My name is Colleen Bartruff, and I’m truly honored to step into this space and continue the heart and intention that has already been built here. I’m originally from Oregon but have called Arizona home since 2007, where I live with my husband, our children, and our dogs. Family, connection, and creating meaningful spaces for people have always been at the center of both my personal and professional life.
I have a background as a Licensed Professional Counselor, certified in Perinatal Mental Health, EMDR certified, and I also work as a birth doula supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I have additional training in the Body Ready Method, which focuses on helping women feel physically and mentally prepared for birth and recovery. My work has always centered around supporting people through growth, healing, and major life transitions, and creating spaces where people feel safe, supported, and connected.
While I am newer to the yoga world itself, I am not new to wellness. Supporting physical, mental, and emotional well-being has been the foundation of my work for many years, and I deeply believe in the power of spaces like this to help people reconnect with themselves and their community.
My hope is to continue fostering a studio environment that feels welcoming, grounding, and full of positive energy for everyone who walks through the door.
I’m excited to meet each of you, learn more about what makes this community special, and continue building a space that supports both movement and connection. My goal is to honor what you already love here while also bringing fresh energy, new opportunities, and continued growth to the studio.
I would also love to hear from you—if there are specific classes, workshops, or wellness offerings you’d love to see at the studio, please don’t hesitate to share. Your feedback matters, and I want this to continue being a space that truly serves and supports our community.
Thank you for welcoming me into this next chapter. I’m looking forward to practicing, connecting, and growing together.
