Ten years ago, we had a vision. To bring healing-centered, trauma-informed yoga and mindfulness to the people.

This month, we’re celebrating a decade of exactly that:

•Hundreds of trauma-informed yoga and mindfulness instructors certified and carrying this work into the world.

•Thousands of students served across Grand Rapids Public Schools, Godfrey Lee Schools, and neighboring communities through the Mindful Classrooms Project.

•Ten years of consistent, caring presence at the Kent County Juvenile Detention Center.

•Community partnerships with and

•Professional development presentations, speaking engagements, and community education brought to educators, corporate teams, and organizations across the region.

None of it possible without the people who make it safe, soulful, and real. My co-founder , every guest instructor who has shared your gifts, every certified educator offering their experience and knowledge in our community, and our co-facilitators .risingstrongwellness , Prem Lancaster and Andre Daley. You all are everything!

To every student and community member who has trusted us and continues to spread this work - thank you. You are the whole point.

With the deepest gratitude,z.kilpatrick

There is something ancient about gathering around a fire.
Before the pace of modern life, before everything felt so separate, people gathered at the hearth. The fire was the center of the home and the community—a place to cook, to warm, to tell stories, to sit together in what was real.
Around the fire, life happened.
We danced.
We celebrated.
We mourned.
We shared meals.
We told the truth.
We listened.
Someone always tended the fire—not to make it bigger, but to keep it steady. To care for what was essential.

This weekend, we return to that.
In our Spring Elemental Circle, we’ll gather around the fire and explore the season of becoming—the Maiden, the energy of growth, movement, desire, and learning how to tend it all without burning out.
Through storytelling, we’ll draw from traditions across cultures that honored fire as something to be cared for, respected, and shared. We’ll reflect, rest, and reconnect—to ourselves and to one another.
This is an intentionally multigenerational gathering.
Because this is how wisdom moves.
Those in the season of becoming are supported and witnessed.
Those who have lived it bring perspective, compassion, and truth.
We need each other in this.
We’re preparing the space with care—
and we’d love to prepare it for you.
✨ Please sign up in advance so we can hold your place.
Come sit by the fire with us. 🔥
