"An important update on..."
…the Soho studio
As soon as I read those words, I knew immediately that triyoga Soho was going to close.
The studio is located in Kingly Court, just off Carnaby Street and minutes from Oxford Circus. The landlord has decided not to renew the contract, because the area is now mainly a restaurant hub, so soon this lovely little yoga studio will be just another Bill’s, or hipster cupcake place.
Shortly after I heard the news it was closing, I taught a class there. During the meditation I started tearing up, as the realisation hit home that a place that has transformed my life was about to vanish.
triyoga Soho was the place where:
I learned to practice my yoga - stepping out into the boozy buzz of Friday night after my calm blissed out class
I did my first yoga teacher training with my forever teacher and friend Jean Hall (hi Jean!)
I did my postnatal teacher training
Jason Crandell said to me, “You need to do my teacher training”
It's more than just a studio where I've fallen out of headstands or practiced my crow pose. It's a space where I felt seen and guided to where I am now, with humility and gratitude. And I’m really going to miss it.
There’s something about change that can remind you to pause, reflect and recalibrate. To remember impermanence.
triyoga Soho’s doors will close on 28 March 2022. If you’re in the area, please go check it out. It’s gorgeous - an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Central London.
And I’ll be teaching my last class there on Tuesday 22nd March. Check out my teaching schedule here.
