Our studio classes aren’t your typical mat-based sessions.

Each series is thoughtfully designed by Lisa Messina, who brings training and certification in yoga, Pilates, functional mobility, somatics, and dance. With a focus on curiosity, safety, and embodied exploration, these classes invite you to move in ways that feel good and grounded.

Classes are offered in 4-week series—you can sign up for the full series or drop in for a class or two. We provide all the props; just come in comfortable clothes you enjoy moving in, and we’ll take care of the rest.


 
 

Flexibility. Strength. Freedom.

Pace: Steady
Intensity: Moderate

Unlock your body’s potential with Mobility Mondays, a dynamic full-body movement class designed to build strength, flexibility, and control from head to toe. These progressive, technique-driven sessions blend targeted mobility drills, functional strength work, and joint stability training to help you move with greater ease, power, and resilience.

Each class begins with focused warm-ups, preparing your body for movement. You'll explore exercises tailored to your feet, knees, hips, spine, shoulders, wrists, and whole body, gradually developing the coordination and capacity required to tackle challenging movement patterns. With an emphasis on safe loading and proper mechanics, you’ll leave feeling both relaxed and empowered—ready to move with confidence.

Step into more freedom in your body—Mondays just got mobile.

Explore. Embody. Restore.

Pace: Slow
Intensity: Low

Immerse yourself in Wellbeing Wednesdays, a thoughtfully crafted in-person experience designed to refuel, restore, and reconnect you with your whole self. More than a movement class, this session blends breathwork, meditation, meaningful movement, contemplation, and nervous system regulation to foster deep connection to body, mind, heart, and soul.

Rooted in exploration and embodiment, each class invites you to tune into the elements, experience movement as ritual, and cultivate a sense of inner balance and wholeness. With safe and supportive guidance, you’ll integrate physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness, leaving class feeling nourished and deeply restored.

Reconnect with yourself—Wednesdays are for wellbeing.

Open. Soften. Release.

Pace: Slow
Intensity: Low

Close your week the way you'd like to begin the next one—open, unwound, and at ease in your body.

Stretchy Sundays is a yoga-inspired class rooted in the same technical, thoughtful teaching you'll find across all our sessions—guiding you through deep, deliberate stretching with attention to alignment, breath, and the body's natural patterns of tension and release. This isn't about pushing further. It's about softening—finding length where there's tightness, ease where there's holding, and space where there's restriction. You'll leave feeling looser, freer, and more at home in your body. A monthly pop-up, Stretchy Sundays shows up when it shows up—an invitation to unwind, not another thing on your weekly schedule.

Come as you are, leave a little softer.
