Our Vision

Source Yoga is a refuge and place of inspiration to safely practice yoga and discover your truest self. You will find a place you can call home combined with deep respect, and vibrant community. Through the physical practice of yoga, meditation, and self-study, you will gain awareness, self-acceptance, and gratitude for the gift of being alive.

Our mission at Source Yoga studios is to offer a safe and inclusive space in which you are supported and encouraged to find your own path through the practice of yoga. We lead with compassion, respect, and gratitude so that we may all experience our own true natures.

Our Values

Gratitude

We openly acknowledge our appreciation for your support and commitment to Source Yoga. We measure our success based on the quality of instruction and care you receive from our staff and teachers as well as the personal stories of positive change we hear reflected back to us. Every single student makes a profound difference and we take pride in serving everyone.

Respect

We are very serious about how each student is treated, with the utmost respect for the individual. We come from many different walks of life, and we have found that respect creates trust and in turn a space for growth to occur.

Exceptional Service

It is our privilege to serve our clients and communities. We do this with great care and are always available to further assist your growth as a yoga practitioner.

Compassion

We believe that we must care for ourselves, our environment and one another to create true change in our lives and our greater communities. You can count on our staff and teachers to provide a welcoming environment where you feel nurtured and respected.

Trust

You can trust that we will provide a service that you want to revisit over and over again. You can trust that you will be safely guided from the moment you walk in the door, to the moment you enter back into your life outside of the studio. You can trust that we are here to support your growth and individual needs.

“Source Yoga has provided a doorway to realizing my physical and mental capabilities. My mind and body are relaxed and refreshed after class. Instructors share their knowledge readily and offer students the opportunity to deepen their practice at their own pace…This is the only studio I’ve been to that offers such a wide range of class times, and types of classes.”   –Mary Mangum
