Vets Yoga? F*ck that.
If that wasn't your first thought when you heard about this class, you're a better person than me.
When I finally tried yoga, it was a last resort for the debilitating back, neck, and hip pain that plagued me after the Army. I was shocked when it actually helped ease some of my pain - and then I started to notice the other benefits.
Not just increased strength and flexibility, the intangible stuff. My chaotic, overstimulated brain shut off for an hour. No more inner demons pulling at me. On that mat, I experienced those precious moments of peace that are few and far between for people like us.
At South Side Studio, that's what I hope to share with you, along with a regular reminder of what's true no matter your branch, MOS, or life circumstances: that you are UNIQUE, you are LOVED, and you have a PURPOSE.
A Place for Us
South Side Studio Yoga began as a place for Veterans and service members. There's nothing like being with your crew - people who "get" you with no added explanation and know what you've been through, because they've been there, too.
Here, we help each other and check in with each other. We meet strangers who become long-time friends. ​More than yoga, we're here for each other. This is a place just for us.
