“Where we put our effort, energy flows.”

I’ve heard it said so many times: “Where we put our effort, energy flows.”
I believe that to be true. I’ve also lived through seasons where it felt like I was chipping away at something endlessly—yet nothing was moving.

But today… today was different.

Our Yoga Studio 90 location in St. Francisville was surrounded by local business owners and the Chamber of Commerce for its official ribbon-cutting ceremony. As I stood there in the sunshine, I couldn’t help but think back to a time when this was nothing more than a dream—a vision that felt lightyears away.

And then I remembered… March 15, 2020.

I remember turning off the lights in our Baton Rouge studio, not knowing what the next few weeks—or years—would bring. Like so many other small business owners, I thought we’d be closed for a few days. But deep down, my gut told me it would be longer. Much longer.As news spread, our city was gripped with fear. I tried to stay grounded, to keep my family healthy, and to make sense of this new “normal” that felt anything but normal. My phone buzzed constantly with messages from members—“Please, can we come in? We won’t tell anyone.”
But we couldn’t. Everything that brought life—movement, connection, community—was shut down.

I watched the world unravel, and with it, the heartbeat of wellness studios everywhere.

When we finally reopened, everything looked different. People were stuck. People were scared. I was scared too. I did my best to lead, but I often questioned whether we’d ever find our footing again.

Many came back. Some didn’t. But our loyal community—our tribe—showed up. We rallied, we adapted, and we kept moving forward. It was one of the darkest, hardest seasons of my life. I was doing everything in my power to reignite our studio, bring people back to the mat, and rebuild what we had lost.

During that time, I joined a female-only business group—something I’d never done before, even after 12 years in business. But I needed a new room. I needed to be surrounded by other women who were shaking the bushes just like I was—fighting for their businesses and their dreams. I met Leigh moss, founder of Influential Business Women’s Network.

And that’s where I met Caitlin Daniel.

A successful Realtor in beautiful St. Francisville, a mom of two, and a woman full of purpose and energy. She reminded me so much of myself in my early days. She understood the power of what happens on the mat—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally.

After our first Business Women’s Network Retreat, she came to me and said, “Hey, I think I want to get certified by you. I want you to mentor me.”I replied, “Let’s meet for coffee.”
She accepted my invitation, and within 10 minutes, I saw it—like a scene from a movie.

She was going to open the very first expansion of Yoga Studio 90.
It was her moment.
It was our season of growth.

All of that chipping away… all that shaking of the bushes… it expanded my vision, strengthened my faith, and changed me forever.

I’m so incredibly thankful for this part of the journey.

And I’m here to remind you—where you place your efforts, energy flows.
Even when the results aren’t instant.
Even when the season feels heavy and slow.
Trust that your season is coming.

Why This Matters

If you’re reading this and feeling like you’re still chipping away at something in your own life or business, please hear me: Stay the course. Keep showing up. The breakthrough might not come fast, but it will come.

Maybe you’re looking for more than just fitness. Maybe you’re searching for hot yoga near you, a total body workout that strengthens and tones, or a space where you can reconnect with your body and mind. Or maybe—like so many others—you just need somewhere to feel grounded again.

That’s why we do what we do at Yoga Studio 90. It’s not just about sweating—it’s about healing, growing, and thriving in a space where you’re seen, supported, and celebrated.

Whether you’re in Baton Rouge or St. Francisville, we’re here.

📍 Looking for hot yoga near me?
📍 Searching for a yoga studio in St. Francisville?
📍 Craving a community that helps you feel strong, confident, and empowered?
This is your place.

✨From wellness classes to mentorship, from mindfulness and movement to women supporting women in business, this journey is far bigger than just yoga—it’s a lifestyle.

So if you’re on the edge of giving up on your own breakthrough—don’t. Stay the course. You never know who your story will inspire next.

Winter can be tough—shorter days, colder temps, and the temptation to curl up and hibernate. But feeling sluggish and low-energy doesn’t have to be your norm! There are three simple, effective ways to boost your mood, energize your body, and keep yourself feeling strong and well this season.

1. Move Every Single Day (Even When You Don’t Feel Like It)

Movement is medicine—especially in the winter. It doesn’t have to be an intense workout every time; even 15 minutes of movement can shift your energy and clear your mind.

  • Step into a heated yoga class to warm up from the inside out.
  • Take a brisk walk outside to soak in some fresh air and natural light.
  • Stretch, flow, or dance in your kitchen—just move!

The key…. Stay consistent. Your body will thank you, and your mood will, too.

2. Feed Your Body What It’s Craving (The Right Way!)

Comfort food cravings are real, and while we all love a cozy meal, nutrient-dense foods help us feel our best.
Try these winter wellness swaps:

  • Instead of sugar-loaded lattes → Try a warm, golden turmeric latte for an anti-inflammatory boost.
  • Instead of carb-heavy comfort food → Opt for hearty, protein-packed soups with lean meats and fresh veggies.
  • Instead of skipping water because it’s cold → Sip on warm herbal teas and infused water to stay hydrated.

What we eat directly impacts our energy, immune system, and overall well-being. Nourish your body like it’s your job.

3. Get More Light (Even When the Sun Is Hiding)

Shorter days can mess with our mood, energy, and sleep. Here’s how to fight back:

  • Step outside early—Even 10 minutes of morning sunlight helps reset your internal clock.
  • Use a light therapy lamp if you’re not getting enough daylight.
  • Go to bed earlier—Your body naturally needs more rest in the winter. Honor it!

Holidays are magical, but let’s be real—they can leave you feeling sluggish and bloated. Ready to shake it off and feel human again? Here are my top three tips to bounce back fast (and laugh at the holiday overindulgence while you’re at it):

1. Hydrate!

Water is your secret weapon against bloat. Think of it as a spa day for your insides—flushing out all that extra sodium from holiday treats. Bonus points if you add a squeeze of lemon to your morning glass—it’s like a love letter to your digestion.

2. Move Your Body

No need to go full-on Rocky montage. A brisk walk or a Yoga Studio 90 class (wink, wink) will do the trick. Movement gets your circulation going and helps your body say, “Thanks, I needed that!” Feel free to throw on a weighted vest or HOT wrap to burn even more. Trust me, your future self will be doing a victory dance.

3. Eat Clean

It’s time to retire the cookies and casseroles for now. Bring on the fresh veggies, fruits, and lean proteins. Anti-inflammatory foods like leafy greens and berries are superheroes for your gut—cape not included.

Start small—even one of these tips will make a difference. Remember, it’s not about perfection; it’s about progress. When you’re ready for a reset, book a class at Yoga Studio 90. Search for us on Google using keywords like “Yoga Studio 90 near me,” “best hot yoga classes,” or “yoga for holiday bloat relief.” Let’s crush those post-holiday blues together! (Psst… Google us: “Yoga Studio 90 near me.”)

As I sit down to reflect on 2024, I am overwhelmed with gratitude and joy. What a year it has been for Yoga Studio 90! This small hot yoga studio, built with the dream of bringing innovative workouts that renew the mind, body, and soul, has grown beyond anything I could have imagined.

Can you believe it’s the first day of fall? In Southern Louisiana, the weather may not indicate the change in season as much as we’d like, but the turn of the season is always a great time to reassess and refocus on how we position ourselves for both purpose and success. And while we are big believers in the power of yoga, wellness is not just about what we do on the mat. It’s also about how we care for every aspect of our well-being, inside and out.

Whether you’re still adjusting to the new school year routine, ready to reset after a busy summer, or simply seeking balance as the holiday season approaches, fall offers the chance to refocus on what truly matters—your health and well-being. Just as nature prepares for renewal, now is the ideal time to align your mind, body, and spirit with your goals.

To help guide your fall wellness reset, we’ve rounded up a few trusted local resources, from nutritional experts to mental health support, that can offer the tools you need to thrive this season.

Our Trusted Wellness Tribe

We proudly seek out and build relationships with other local wellness providers that can be a resource to our members for this reason. Some that we’ve come to call our “Wellness Tribe” include:

Sync Wellness

Led by a team of seasoned medical professionals, SYNC Life is a trusted partner in optimizing health and happiness through integrative medicine. With treatments and personalized lifestyle plans from IV therapy and infrared sauna services to professional-grade supplements and regenerative aesthetic services, they don’t just treat symptoms – they uncover the root of the problem. When you to take control of your health, you can stop settling for normal and aim for optimal!

Arnold Nutrition

Kylie and her team at Arnold Nutrition help you look and feel your best, while still being able to indulge in a little jambalaya here and there, and during this time of year, we know you’ll want to make sure you can still squeeze in all your favorite Southern comfort foods while still working towards your goals! If you’re looking for clarity and confidence in yourself and your food choices, Arnold Nutrition can help, whether it’s by joining The Southernly Nourished Krewe for online access to courses, trainings and local food guides, or signing up for 1:1 coaching for a personalized plan and accountability partner.

Chaos Organizing

Chaos Organizing is a team of Professional Organizers in Baton Rouge with over a decade of transforming busy homes into peaceful spaces for families. If you’re tired of being overwhelmed with your home and feeling like you never have a chance to rest, taking control of your spaces with decluttering and organizational systems can be a life-changer! When we feel comfortable and at ease at home, we lower our stress from the inside out so our bodies can get the rest it needs to recharge.

The Well Clinic

The Well Clinic helps you find your path to wellness with comprehensive mental health services, from counseling to medicine and Neurofeedback. Their integrated approach treats you as a whole person – the physical, psychological, relational, cultural, and spiritual aspects of you who are – so they can provide mental health treatment as individualized as you are. Fall and winter can be some of the toughest times for those struggling with their mental health, so if you’ve noticed you’re not feeling like your best self or are fighting thoughts and feelings that are difficult to manage, there’s no better time than now to reach out.

These local businesses are meeting the needs of so many individuals who want to live well in every sense of the word. That’s why we want to encourage you to research and reach out to the ones that are speaking to you in this season – it just takes one small step to set big changes into motion!

Wellness Resources in Action

Have you ever thought you could use some help dialing in your nutrition? One of our long-time Yoga Studio 90 members reached out to Arnold Nutrition two months ago with a simple goal: to lose a few pounds. What she was doing in the studio was certainly helping, but she knew the missing puzzle piece was her nutrition. What she gained by connecting with Kylie at Arnold Nutrition was far beyond just weight loss. She discovered new insights about her body that have propelled her success, leading to incredible results. She’s down on the scale, but more importantly, she now has the energy to power through her days – no more afternoon slumps, and she no longer wakes up tired. She’s truly thriving from the inside out, and that’s exactly what our mission at Yoga Studio 90 is all about!

Coming Soon: Lunch and Learn

Personally, I’m a big believer in the power of time spent on the mat with our incredible classes combined with investing in the care of my mind and body. Making sure my hormones and gut health are in check, and staying eager to learn more about fueling my body, has been key to my own wellness journey. These ingredients – caring for both physical and mental health – are what help us thrive, and that’s why I trust our wellness partners so deeply.

If you’re interested in learning more about how these resources can help you live well, I invite you to join us for a special Lunch and Learn on Tuesday, October 22 from 11:30AM to 1PM. You’ll have the chance to meet the owners of Sync Wellness, Arnold Nutrition, Chaos Organizing, and The Well Clinic and learn how they can support your wellness journey. More information on this event will be coming soon, so mark your calendars and be sure to subscribe to our emails and follow us on Instagram and Facebook to get all the details!

Until then, let’s continue to prioritize our wellness and stay on this path of thriving together.

Here are 4 tips to help you establish and stick to a healthy fitness and nutrition routine and reach your summer body goals.

The post Summer Bodies Start Now! appeared first on Yoga Studio 90.

If you have a goal to get in great shape for the summer, here’s your friendly reminder that the clock is ticking! You may have heard that summer bodies are made in the winter, and that’s no exaggeration. It takes time and commitment to sculpt the long and lean physique you’re looking for, but we can help you get started. With some discipline, 90 days from now, you can feel a lot more confident in the skin you’re in, and we want to help you feel as fabulous as we already know you are!

Here are a few tips to help you get in shape for the summer:

Make a plan and lean on discipline, not motivation:

Let’s get right to it: through years of training countless members, we have seen that consistently showing up to class (in studio or online) 4 or more days per week will create the long and lean body you are looking for.

We know that’s a big commitment, and some weeks will be harder than others to step on the mat. That’s where your planning and discipline can kick in when motivation is lacking. Many of our classes are under an hour, and you deserve that time! Make a commitment to prioritize yourself and your health, and create routines that help you stick with it when you’re feeling tired or not in the mood. Pre-scheduling your classes for the week on Sunday evenings, laying out your workout clothes the night before, and keeping a water bottle in the fridge that’s ready to go are just a few ways you can cultivate a healthy and consistent habit of showing up on the mat.

Listen to your body when it comes to nutrition:

You’ll notice that your class attendance even begins to influence your food choices, and your body (if you are eagerly listening) will guide you: “drink more water! Less salt. Don’t choose the enchiladas – you know it’ll rise up in the middle of class!”  This self awareness helps you make better nutritional choices, which in turn will help you reach your fitness goals.

Don’t forget to take hydration into account as part of your nutrition, too. If you’re showing up for our heated studio classes, this is even more important. Proper hydration is about more than just getting enough water – it helps with muscle recovery, cell turnover, feeling full and even boosting your metabolism, so don’t skip out on it!

If you show up, choose fresh foods, get enough protein (which we can help guide you) and drink 75 + ounces of water, we promise you’ll see and feel the changes!

Keep a journal and celebrate small wins:

Speaking of listening to your body, we are big believers in tracking, and that includes your mindset. It doesn’t have to be complex, either. We love a good ‘ole journal for this, and we encourage keeping track of some key metrics as well as how you feel. If you’ve had a RECENTER session with April or you’ve been around YS90 for awhile, you may already know how much we love and recommend My Little Black Book for this!

Yes, it’s important to note the numbers like your starting weight and measurements, but documenting how you feel when you work out (or when you don’t work out!), the changes you’re noticing, the foods that make you feel good, and your mindset will all help you see how far you’ve come. Celebrating small wins is key to staying on track with your goals, and keeping a journal is a great way to do that.

Be flexible and give yourself grace:

It’s not easy to stay on track, especially during the oh-so-busy Spring season! All of these things are important to cultivating consistency and working towards your goal, but don’t forget to give yourself a little grace and flexibility too. We love our OnDemand library for those busy weeks when we just can’t get to the studio, or when we’re traveling and on the go. And if you miss a class or two in the process, don’t sweat it – just hop back into your routine and keep making forward progress!

Do you remember your very first class experience with us? 

I’ll never forget my first hot yoga class experience – it was January, 2002. I was a new bride and heard about a hot yoga place, no music. The teaching guy was strict and instructed people to get into poses that left them raving about how good they felt and looked. 

After hearing this from a few people consistently and noticing how good they did look and it was  obvious they felt good too. I was willing to try it. 

I bounced in there and what they had told me was accurate.  It was a small warehouse that most people used for storage. Nothing fancy. Small and simple. I found this to be refreshing in a way. No music and no big signs or distractions. Only people and their yoga mat and it was HOT!  Y’all… I didn’t even bring a water bottle. 

I lasted 20 minutes and had to walk out and, yep… I lost my lunch. I remember sitting in the parking lot cooling off and thinking, “I’m going back in!”  

I paced myself and didn’t try to do every rep. I finished. I was hooked.  

I’m going to share with you what I WISH someone had shared to prepare me back then, so you can be more ready for your first hot yoga class than I was!

Not everyone finds it easy to bounce in and try something new. It’s intimidating. When I first started hot yoga, I learned a lot the hard way. That’s why I want people to feel confident and prepared when they arrive at our studio. I want you to feel your absolute best here, whether it’s your first time or your 50th at Yoga Studio 90, and we want you to keep coming back! So let’s go…

Here are 5 things to know before your first hot yoga class at Yoga Studio 90:
  1. Make a plan: Identify 3 class times / 3  days you are going to show up within the next 5 days to the studio. Don’t cancel on you!  Trust me there is a purpose to this. 
  2. Comfort is key: Don’t overthink it – just wear something that is comfortable and you feel good in. The important thing is that it’s something you can move around in with ease. And don’t worry about shoes – we practice barefoot!
  3. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate: Drink lots of water the day before you attend. Make sure you are well nourished and hydrated. This is not the time to kick back a pitcher of margaritas and enchiladas the night before you attend a hot yoga class! You can even plan to eat something light before attending. Examples: small yogurt, handful of grapes or almonds. Don’t forget to bring your water, yoga mat, and a towl – you WILL sweat!
  4. Arrive to class a few minutes early: You are starting something new. You are investing in you. Don’t be late on you! Introduce yourself to the teacher and let them know you’re new, any physical ailments, injuries, or limitations you may have, and what’s important to you – our instructors are so helpful and always willing to meet you where you are by helping you adjust or ease into poses.
  5. Leave all expectations in the parking lot: Let go of any pressures you’re possibly placing on yourself or the class experience. We call yoga a PRACTICE because it’s something we never master – everyone is evolving and learning in some way at all times. So walk in with an open mind and start YOUR practice – you won’t regret it!

We love all the benefits of yoga – mind, body, and soul. We believe it’s a life-long practice with endless benefits, seen and unseen, but we’re not naive! We know what you really want to know – can yoga really change the way my body looks for the better?

Does a regular yoga practice help with changes to your body composition and shape like you see in traditional weight training or cardio-based fitness routines? Can I get a healthy, toned body from practicing yoga? Read on – you may be surprised at what yoga can do for you!

How Yoga Can Shape Your Body

When yoga is introduced into your fitness routine, you can expect to see plenty of positive changes – inside and out. While many people may not exactly think of yoga as a fat-burner, it definitely has the ability to help with fat loss, increase muscle tone, lengthen and strengthen, and build flexibility.

And don’t underestimate the power of HEAT! At Yoga Studio 90, our hot yoga classes help amplify all the benefits of yoga by bringing the SWEAT – helping you burn off extra calories, stretch and lengthen those muscles even more, and detoxify the body for better blood flow, cell turnover, and recovery.

With regular practice, all of these things can lead to that long-and-lean body you dream of! Don’t believe us?

Check out some of these amazing before and afters from our very own members:

And There’s Even More Benefits of Yoga!

Practicing yoga regularly has many benefits beyond the body shaping. One thing yoga does is strengthen your spine, lower back, and abdominal muscles. This alone allows you to stand taller! Individuals who described their appearance as short, squatty and plump have seen incredible results in changing the shape of their body simply from the lengthening effects of yoga.

And the beauty in yoga is that you are strengthening and elongating all muscle groups, creating a long, strong and healthy body. Our members share with us how practicing through the years allows them to stand tall and confident in everything from meetings, weddings to the court. 

Don’t underestimate the power of the poses either – every movement we go through in a hot yoga class is intentional, and has the power to influence internal body functions like cortisol levels, reducing stress, promoting relaxation and improving overall mental health and wellbeing.

Positive Changes Will Happen If You Stay With It.

As you can see, the benefits are truly countless in a regular yoga practice! Your ideal body is within reach with hot yoga if you commit to putting in the work, and you’ll get the added mental and spiritual benefits as well.
