Chakra flow is centered around seven energy points, ranging from the base of the spine to the crown of the head, each associated with stability, creativity, and self-expression.
“We basically work through the seven main energy centers of the body from root to crown with movement, sound, breathwork, and affirmations… to feel more balanced in our bodies,” said Dee Rowe, a women’s circle facilitator, sacred ceremonies leader, and chakra flow practitioner
For Dee, the practice is more than exercise. She calls it her passion.
“Oh gosh, I love this stuff. This fills my cup up. This is like my passion project,” said Rowe.
The opportunity to share work like this exists because of studio founder Michelina Payetta, who left behind a secure career to take a risk.
“I quit my career job that was very stable, though I was very unhappy, and I decided to open doors,” said Payetta.
“I went from looking to telling the real estate agent to write up the proposal. And then I was signing lease papers, and I am now here four years later,” said Payetta.
“There are tons of hippie yoga studios all over the place, and when I first came here, I was having a tough time finding that. When I connected with Michelina, the studio owner, and talked to her about how I wanted to bring stuff like that to the community, and she was so supportive. It meant a lot to me,” said Rowe.
Now, Michaelina says the space has become more than a business.
“Yes, we are a yoga studio, but we are also a place that can be home.”
And for many who step inside, that sense of home may be the most important discovery of all.
