STUDIO SPOTLIGHT! đŁ
Today we want to take a moment to introduce Kate! Itâs been really inspiring to follow Kateâs journey here at HYD. Have a read through to learn more about her experience with her practice.
âAfter a nasty ankle break during volleyball, I had years of pain and wasnât able to play sports anymore, or even go on walks. I decided to give hot yoga a go as an alternative way to get some exercise. I truly did not know how transformative and life-changing that decision was.
After my first session, I felt so much physical and emotional relief from finally being able to move my body again. Since then, the studio has become my second home. Being in an environment with such kind and knowledgeable teachers meant I could exercise in a way that suited my body, and made me completely fall in love with yoga.
The teachers knew about my injury and always offered variations when I needed them, which made me feel so supported and safe throughout my practice.
After my second ankle reconstruction last year, getting back into the studio was a huge part of my recovery. Consistent practice, especially 26&2, helped me strengthen, build up my balance and actually see my progress. âThe poses are the same, but you change daily.â
My favourite classes are Hot Flow and 26&2. Hot yoga has become my passion, my recovery, and my happy place. Iâm beyond grateful to have found this community, and I genuinely canât imagine my life without it!â
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience Kate and keep up the fantastic work! đ«¶
