Why We Named Our Studio The Root to Rise and What It Means for Our Lyndhurst NJ Community
Every name tells a story. Ours begins on the mat, with feet planted firmly on the ground and a spine lengthening toward the sky.
The Yoga Within the Name
In yoga, "root to rise" is more than just an instruction. It's a philosophy.
It's the moment your instructor reminds you to ground down through your feet, to feel the earth beneath you, and from that stable foundation, to grow upward through the crown of your head. It's about finding length, finding strength, and finding yourself in the space between grounded and growing.
That's where the phrase was born. But it's not where our story ends.
My Personal Journey to Wellness
When I was searching for my own wellness journey, I tried everything.
The trending workouts, the programs everyone was talking about, the shortcuts that promised quick results. But nothing stuck. Nothing changed. I was moving, but I wasn't growing.
It wasn't until I stopped chasing what was popular and started building what was personal that everything changed. I needed a strong foundation first. A routine that worked for me, a practice that honored my body, a reason that was truly mine.
Once I planted my feet in that truth, everything else began to rise naturally. The clarity came. The results followed, not just physically, but mentally and emotionally too.
That transformation is what inspired me to create a wellness studio in Lyndhurst, New Jersey where others could experience the same breakthrough. A place where you don't have to figure it out alone.
What Root to Rise Means for Your Practice
Root to Rise isn't about doing what's hot or following the crowd. It's about knowing your why, even if you haven't figured out your what yet. It's about building from the ground up, with intention and authenticity.
In every Pilates class, every yoga flow, and every moment of connection over coffee, we come back to this principle.
You need to understand where you're standing before you can grow.
You need to honor your starting point before you can celebrate how far you've come.
That's the foundation of real, lasting wellness.
