Greetings Barre Bae,

 

Thank you so much to those of you who wished me a happy birthday on Wednesday. This year I opted for some heavy self care and alone time versus my usual birthday party. Making the decision to pivot after already making plans for a party brought up some guilty feelings, but at the end of the day I knew I needed to listen to my body, and my body was saying, “Girl, go sit down somewhere!” My personal celebration included a morning at a local wellness studio, solo lunch at one of my favorite spots, dinner with my immediate family, another June birthdays dinner with extended family, and a special Juneteenth sound bath at a local library. I needed to feel held and at ease and hosting a party this year did not feel like it would check off either of those boxes. I'm filled with so much gratitude that I'm at a place in my life where I know when to press the pause button.

 

This week we're grabbing a Hot Barre Summer 30 class pack before the deal expires, signing up for Soulful Sweat + Stretch this coming Saturday, joining this week's 2Pac themed Lunch Break classes, and registering for a special Juneteenth class for only $6.19!

thank you for being part of the fbw community
