We are opening our doors to a few aligned wellness professionals who are looking for a beautiful, calm space to practice and grow.

This space is best suited for:
• Small-group movement teachers
• Therapists / body-based practitioners
• Wellness providers looking for part-time studio access
• Handmade, small-batch wellness brands interested in renting shelf space

If you value consistency, intention, cleanliness, and a more boutique, professional environment (not drop-in chaos), this might be a really good fit.

Located inside a serene, thoughtfully curated studio designed for nervous system support and meaningful work. Learn more about our rentals here!
