The Venue
Cozy up to the fire in the den or sip coffee overlooking the courtyard. You will stay in clean and comfortable rooms in this beautifully restored home from 1905 located in Loring Park. In this mansion’s stunning drawing room, we will come together to move. After the sun has risen, we will throw open its massive windows and rejoice in the sunlight as we greet the day in our Pilates/yoga fusion class. During our candlelit Studio Prana session, we will turn the lights down low and draw on its strong foundation to connect you to the earth. This incredible setting will be all you need to embrace and ground yourself in your intentions.
