Body heat

In a blink we went from two classes on Saturday to filling a third. Body heat switched off the furnace switch,and steam froze to the windows from floor to ceiling. It was New Year’s Day.

That day we started stamping names and X’s into brass tags and nailing them to the wall. If you have the money, buying something is easy. Showing up day after day is hard. You’re body keeps score, but now so do we. 12 Xs earn you a free class.

Thank you all for your energy, effort, and commitment.

Here are a few photos from the start of the year. Below zero and Holiday, but you came anyway.

The torch was passed to us in July. We shared the space with the previous tenants, a yoga studio that operated here for a few years, until the middle of the month while they wrapped up their final classes with long time clients. Little by little the old signs came down, fresh paint coated the walls, and we stripped away the brown lacquer hiding the old copper trim outlining the front windows. The Dojo Of Do Well is coming to life, not in a flourish or a grand opening, but with a steady building drum.

It’s going to take time to see our biggest ideas realized, but we’d like to have you along while we work on it. Heather’s already working with personal training clients new and old, private Pilates lessons are happening, and our group Pilates class has already added a second slot for the week. Come by, check it out, and tell us about that time you backpacked Europe, rode the spillway in Malaga, or eloped to sail around Mexico—or whatever it is you love to do and want to keep on doing as long as you can.

No wind chimes or bamboo flutes in classes at the Dojo Of Do Well.
