Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

Our inspiration comes from the desire to create a space where everyone feels welcome and included. Yoga (and fitness in general) often carries the misconception that it needs to "look" a certain way. We strive to make our classes accessible to all levels and body types, ensuring that everyone can participate and benefit.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by witnessing the positive impact that Wise Studios has on our community. Every time I see a member achieving their fitness goals, forming new friendships, or simply finding a moment of peace in their busy lives, I am reminded of the importance of our mission. Additionally, setting new challenges and continuously striving to improve our offerings keeps me driven. The passion and dedication of my team also play a significant role in keeping my enthusiasm alive.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With the $25,000, I would invest in expanding our reach and enhancing our services to better serve our community. This funding would allow us to pay down some equipment debt, introduce new and innovative classes, and further develop our outreach programs to support our community. By making these improvements, we aim to make Wise Studios an even more inclusive and transformative space, enabling more people to experience the benefits of yoga and cycling.
