  • Dana Louis “tattooed” the exterior of The Breathe Building and she designed the glass etching in the entrance. She is passionate, loving, and creative, and she’s tirelessly devoted to yoga and her community. She is an art warrior and a total veteran. She knows how to get large-scale projects done by navigating the challenges and finishing on time. We are always learning from her wisdom and authentic self-expression. We are forever grateful for all that she provides.
  • Cobb Hoelzer is the artist who transformed our childcare space The Hive, into a magical forest of trees and bees, and our south studio into a yoga chapel. She is wildly creative and brings live to everything she touches.
  • Samantha  Fisher is our the muralist who crafted and then re-crafted our Ardhanarishvara mural for the north studio. She is playful and unique and she brings light to our space every day with her creation.
  • Nolan Restivo of Juncture Wood Works designed and constructed the woodwork art behind our front desk. He does very good work and delivers satisfying results in quick time. He’s also a joy to work with.

La Carolina Lodge is a magical retreat space in Costa Rica. Never have we experienced land so well cared for. If you’re looking for a place to restore your soul, go there! Be inspired by these folks who are doing it right. Soak in the fire-heated pool shouldering the stunning Rio Celeste’. Ride the magnificent horses. Hike their jungle trails. Enjoy family-style meals, three times daily. The food is all coming straight from this land, right down to every grain of rice and every bean, each of which they sort by hand. Slow down. Take in the roots of life. Dine by candle light. Go and let the old world remind you of what’s good, beautiful, and true in this world.
