Lunchtime Wellness Hour at E Smith
February 28th – June 30th 2018
My dear friends at E. Smith Mercantile wanted to open up their Brick and Mortar to more than just retail and bar. The space was beautiful with a huge window overlooking Occidental Park in the heart of Pioneer Square. Right in the middle of it all.
We decided to start a once a week class during the lunch hour. The idea was that people could spend their break doing yoga rather than rushing around to get their lunch. I taught a Hatha/Vinyasa class while my partner put together artisan lunch boxes for students to take with them after class. Such a nice way to break up your workday!
My students loved the idea and I had a sweet group of solid regulars! It was really fun to grow a project out of nothing and build community in a neighborhood outside of my regular practice. Connections were made that I will cherish forever!
Unfortunately, after five years of business, E. Smith decided to close their doors. With the end of the business came the end of the class but, the future is wide open! I wish them the best in their future endeavors and can’t wait to see what’s next for everyone who got to share that magical space!
