The Shakti Rising Monthly Newsletter
Welcome to The Shakti Rising’s new monthly newsletter! We want to invite you to follow along with us as we create a new way to connect with you. At The Shakti Rising, it is important to us to orient ourselves to mindfulness and intention. So, along with studio and class updates, each month we will include an opportunity to gather outside of the studio, and connect with a new theme and brief musings surrounding that theme. We hope you will join in!
This month, we are connecting with a theme of New Beginnings. Many of you know we have been going through a significant transition this past year. Our dance studio has officially moved to a new location in Leesburg, bringing fresh energy, more space, and new possibilities.
As we embrace this new beginning, we also pause to honor the journey that brought us here: the memories made, the growth we’ve shared, and the community of students and instructors who shaped our story. While the walls may be new to us, the heart of our studio remains the same. We can’t wait to welcome you into our new home as we carry our past with pride and move boldly into the future together.
For a glimpse into this past year at The Shakti Rising, take a look at your feed on Momencefor an update from Angela.
If you would like to join us in reflecting on the theme of New Beginnings, we invite you to check out a few journal prompts at the bottom of this letter. Thank you for connecting with us.

Instructor Spotlight
If I could give my students one message or piece of advice:
My favorite thing about aerial yoga is:
Seeing my students build their confidence and grow within their practice.
Something I would like to share with this theme:
I would like to extend my gratitude for all the love and support throughout the transition of this last year. I’m so happy to start this next chapter with everyone and have you all be part of our new beginning.
We invite you to take a moment to reflect on this month's theme. Here are a few journal prompts that may support you in your mindful contemplation:
How do I want to express myself differently or more fully in the days ahead?
How does shifting perspective create a new beginning for me?
What story does my body want to tell next?
With light and love,
