I’ve heard it said so many times: “Where we put our effort, energy flows.” I believe that to be true. I’ve also lived through seasons where it felt like I was chipping away at something endlessly—yet nothing was moving.

“There’s a moment—right before the studio doors open—where silence holds the weight of every step I’ve taken to get here. In that stillness, I feel it all: the grief, the healing, the growth, and now, the incredible warmth of purpose.”

This isn’t just the launch of another boutique yoga studio. This is the birth of a deeply personal vision. A hot yoga studio in St. Francisville that was built from heartbreak, healing, and the hope of bringing something transformational to a town that’s never had anything quite like this.

The Road Here Wasn’t Ideal—But It Was Real

Before I found Yoga Studio 90, I was navigating the twists of small-town real estate—chasing contracts, meeting deadlines, and trying to find balance. But life has a way of teaching us deeper lessons away from our professional roles.

I became a mom. I faced the depths of postpartum depression and anxiety. And in September 2022, I experienced the unimaginable: the loss of my child.

In that grief, I searched for something to anchor me—something more than therapy. I needed movement. Stillness. Breath. I needed a healing space that met me where I was, not where the world expected me to be.

Why Hot Yoga? Why Now?

In 2024, I met April Hill at the Influential Business Women Network Retreat. When she mentioned possibly opening a second Yoga Studio 90 location, something clicked in me.

As a local realtor and someone craving healing and connection, I thought: "I can help her find the perfect space—and maybe create a local studio that gives others what YS90 gave me."

I didn’t know then that this partnership would turn into something so much bigger.

Yoga Studio 90 met me on the mat when I needed it most. The heat, sweat, and stillness became a new kind of therapy. A space to process the unspoken. A place where strength returned.

So when April asked if I wanted to bring YS90 to St. Francisville, I said yes—with my whole heart.

On September 14, 2024, Yoga Studio 90 St. Francisville officially opened its doors. Why This Matters

If you’re reading this and feeling like you’re still chipping away at something in your own life or business, please hear me: Stay the course. Keep showing up. The breakthrough might not come fast, but it will come.

Maybe you’re looking for more than just fitness. Maybe you’re searching for hot yoga near you, a total body workout that strengthens and tones, or a space where you can reconnect with your body and mind. Or maybe—like so many others—you just need somewhere to feel grounded again.

That’s why we do what we do at Yoga Studio 90. It’s not just about sweating—it’s about healing, growing, and thriving in a space where you’re seen, supported, and celebrated.

Building a Community That Moves Together

What we’re creating in St. Francisville yoga classes isn’t just fitness—it’s connection. It’s therapy through movement. It’s sweat that means something.

From Hot Pilates to YS90 Sculpt, we’re offering a full schedule of challenging, restorative, and beginner-friendly classes to help you feel strong, grounded, and supported.

This is your space to grow.
This is your mat.
