What are we all about?

At ū4ic yoga, we created a foundation built upon 4 core principles.

“ū4ic yoga is unlike any other yoga I have tried before, the space is welcoming and inviting, Tony was very thoughtful with her instruction and mindful of all skill levels throughout the entire Lit Vinyasa class. I sweat more than I have sweat in my entire life, but I left the studio feeling refreshed, relaxed, and immediately ready to schedule another class. Will definitely be back! Thank you Tony!!’

Community. Culture. Passion. Presence.

Community is absolutely key to feeling like you have purpose and that you’re not alone. At ū4ic yoga, everyone is welcome-it is a sacred place that we created to make yoga accessible and available to every human being! When you’re surrounded around all walks of life, interactions and conversations, this inevitably sparks curiosity to open and expand the mind. To see different perspectives. To realize you’re not alone. To realize we are all actually human beings just trying to figure it all out. Community is simply the container to support and love one another so that we may all be the best version of ourselves and shine our light a little brighter each day.

Culture is the heart, light and soul of ū4ic yoga. We create and hold space for every single person that walks though our doors to be their true authentic self, free of ego and free of judgment. In other words, to waive their freak flag! Regardless of where you are in your practice, how much money you have in the bank account, gender, color, race, size or shape-we are all one. We are mirrors of one another. We are a tribe. We are here to serve and support one another. I am a reflection of you and you are a reflection of me. At ū4ic yoga, it is a place where you are able to express yourself and just be you-free to shed your proverbial masks, expectations, fears, resentments, shame and regrets and just be the best version of yourself. Cue-shoulder drop!

Passion is infectious. It’s radiant. It can’t be stopped. It’s fearless. It’s trusted. Passion is a feeling that permeates every fiber of our being. And passion lies within each and every single one of you! At ū4ic yoga, you will tap into passions within your heart space that you didn’t even know existed. When you’re in a safe environment free of ego and judgement, to inhale positivity and exhale negativity (literally), space is created. Space to see clearly, space to observe your thoughts without attachment or ownership, space to feel instead of think, a space to be grateful for your heartbeat-a space to just be. And then all of the sudden, the feeling of always carrying a heavy load starts to dissipate-mentally, physically and emotionally. Ideas, wants, dreams, hope start to stoke inspiration to create sparks that inevitably ignites passion that the world has been so patiently waiting for you to share-your unique passion!

Presence is such a gift. All the details, the feel, the smell, the taste, the laughter, the love...that’s the magic of the right here, right now. The past is gone-you cannot get it back. And, the future is uncertain. The only true guarantee is the present moment-the here and now. At ū4ic yoga, we give you permission to turn off the external world, forget about the past, forget about the future, forget about your significant other, forget about the to do list, forget about that head tilting conversation you had with your coworker, get out of your head-forget about anything and everything outside the 4 walls of ū4ic yoga studio. Instead, we hold space for you to embrace the 4 corners of your mat, individually and collectively. Go within, feel the practice rather than think or anticipate the practice, be intentional with every shape, posture, pose and connect the asanas with your breath. Your pranayama...the energy force behind this practice. Staying present, embracing the wild ride of emotions that come out of nowhere in just 60 minutes. The highs and lows, the all encompassing mental and physical struggles, the burn, power through the challenges, don’t stop, don’t give up...and all of the sudden, light bulbs begin flickering, answers start bubbling, guidance and direction are magically mapped out like a mental Waze. All to be sealed up and treasured in a moment of stillness. Ahhh, and all the magic in the tiny details of presence…gratitude, grace, confidence, love, peace, lighter, stronger, joy, inspiration, ū4ic-the list is infinite when you combine presence with breath and body.
