But I am going to talk about what happens when we call things yoga that aren't — because yoga has ethics, and those ethics have been written down for thousands of years, and a lot of what's being sold right now runs directly against them. Including what's happening to the animals. Especially what's happening to the bunnies — and once you know better, I hope you'll do better.

Strawberry Full Moon Sound Bath

June’s full moon is known as the Strawberry Moon — a name rooted in the ripening season, the peak of summer, and the sweetness that comes when things finally come into bloom. It’s a moon that asks you to slow down and receive.

On Monday, June 29th at 7 PM, The Studio at Driphouse is hosting an intimate sound bath under the Strawberry Full Moon. You’ll lie down, close your eyes, and let the vibrations of singing bowls move through your body while the rest of the world stays outside where it belongs.

Sound bath isn’t a workout. It’s not a class. It’s an hour of your nervous system doing exactly what it’s been trying to do all week — let go.

Space is intentionally limited to 10 people. Bring a pillow and blanket if you want to get cozy. One bolster and one blanket available on-site, first come first served.

$25 · Monday, June 29 · 7:00 PM · Driphouse, Spencerport NY

Reserve your spot to hold your space as participation is limited.

SIGNATURE SCULPT 💧🔥

Let me just say this now: if you think light weights mean easy, I love that optimism.

Signature Sculpt is all about intentional movement, high reps, smart programming, sneaky core work, and the kind of muscle shake that makes you question your life choices in the best possible way.

We use lighter weights, bands, balls, bodyweight, and controlled movement to create serious burn, build strength, improve endurance, and sculpt from head to toe. Because spoiler alert: you do not need to throw around giant dumbbells to get absolutely humbled.

This class is challenging, fun, effective, and designed so you can work at your level while still getting a killer workout.

Come see what happens when “just 5 pounds” starts feeling deeply personal. 😂
