We're Mindy and Josh and we are excited to create more opportunities to practice yoga in the New London area. Our goal is to promote positivity and help you improve your mental and physical health through mindful movement.
Hello!
My name is Mindy. My husband, Josh and I are excited to bring a formal yoga studio to New London.
My journey with yoga began over 20 years ago with Inner Sun Yoga Studio in Oshkosh. I loved their quaint, warm, and peaceful space. It was a place where I could disconnect from the stresses and pressures of life. A place to connect with my breath and quiet my mind with guided movement.
Fast forward 20 years; my practice dwindled through the years, would pick back up, and then lessen again. Looking back, whenever I felt the best in my life, it was always when I was doing yoga regularly.
My doctor recommended trying an app for guided meditations and breath work. I slowly started to feel more myself. I took some time off work, got back into yoga attended a local yoga retreat which inspired me to do yoga teacher training. Training would be my therapy to strengthen not only my mind, but my body, and in the end give me a certification to teach and share my experiences, and the gift of yoga with others.
So, here we are today! We're hopeful that this space can be a place of peaceful disconnect that promotes positivity, and helps improve our yoga friends' mental and physical health.
We hope to see you at class! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out by calling, emailing, or messaging on social media. Have a beautiful day!
Greetings!
My name is Chris Marcks and I am thrilled to get to help grow yoga in the greater New London area!
My yoga journey began in 2009 when I discovered Power Vinyasa (Flow) Yoga. I was hooked! The mental focus yoga provided gave me a “pause button” for my busy monkey mind. And the stretching and strengthening, combined with breath work were huge for me as well. I was told by my first midwife that I was the best first time mama when it came to my breathing during labor! I went on to have 2 more amazing pregnancies and natural births, my last serving as a surrogate, or gestational carrier, for my now goddaughter :)
As a physical challenge-seeker and weight lifter, I loved everything about the style and sought out yoga teacher training once life allowed. I wanted to offer the style of yoga I fell in love with in my rural community. I began teaching in Shawano where my family resided for 10 years prior to moving to Shiocton 2 years ago. After a year or so hiatus from teaching to remodel our current home, I have since begun teaching regularly in Appleton, subbing in Seymour, and offering pop up classes at my home. I aim to help yoga be as unintimidating and FUN as possible in my teaching. I feel honored to partner with Mindy to provide regular opportunities to build a yoga community close to my new-ish home! I look forward to meeting you as early as this Sunday, March 10th at 4pm at Mindful Movements Yoga Studio!
