The Owners of Grassroots

Grassroots Yoga Center came into our care through a shared calling to serve this community in a deeper way. As lifelong educators, Brigette and I have always believed in the power of learning—not just in classrooms, but in the way we move, breathe, and connect to ourselves and each other. When the opportunity arose to steward this beautiful studio, it felt like a natural extension of our path as teachers.
​
Together, we’ve blended our backgrounds in education, mindfulness, and yoga to create a space where everyone—no matter their experience—can feel supported, curious, and empowered. Grassroots isn’t just about yoga; it’s about cultivating growth from the ground up, nurturing a community that values self-awareness, resilience, and joy. Our mission is simple: to meet people where they are and offer tools for living well, both on and off the mat.
