“Wow is all I can say! What an amazing class and unique instructor. Best class I’ve ever taken! A great workout and even better opportunity to get emotionally balanced.”
“the most liberating + feel good class i’ve ever taken.”
“I learned a lot about my body—and my body helps me make decisions—all because of joyflow’s practice.”
“joyflow® changed me in a deeply profound way. It made me get out of my shell and freaking move. Nothing was weird in comfort of my own space, in my own body. Since then, I’ve been trying to take up my space the same way I did during joyflow®.”
“joyflow® is a practice that keeps you healthy and happy.”
“joyflow® is a safe space with no judgment, come move freely.”
“I have been many different studios in the city, none of which have felt like a community quite like this one.”
“joyflow® empowers you to be YOURSELF, to be free of judgement.”
“Sarah has a unique way of speaking a language that is inclusive and yet so personal that everyone in the room feels she is speaking directly to them, FOR them. Joy and positivity radiates from her words, her tonality, and her intention.”
“and after, you feel like a new person and the whole world feels like yours.”

MOVEMENT AS MEDICINE
Media and society have taught us to focus on what the body looks like. To use movement (exercise) as a means to an end: achieve the idealized standard of what a body is "supposed to look like." We know there's not one way. We know that beauty is innate within us all. We know that the hyper-fixation on what the body looks like is a distraction from embracing the true power and wisdom the body holds. We believe movement is the key to unlocking that power and wisdom.
