about us.

Seems a long time coming . . .

The practice of yoga has far-reaching benefits, on its own or as part of a personal fitness plan. Yoga means different things to different people, so Way to Be Wellness and Yoga Collaborative will continue to roll out a mix of ways for you to develop your own practice. You will find a variety of classes in a variety of locations - solo, small group, with family and friends, indoors, outdoors, in beautiful and accessible locations, and at our home studio in Kennebunk Lower Village.

I am grateful to all who have supported and advised on this (ad)venture over the past three and a half years - colleagues, friends, family. They include my Rewind business partners Kit Emilson and Anna Rigner, my True North yoga family in Portugal and Sweden, Gin Evans of Repose Yoga, mentors Lisa Andersson Rhodiner and Nazareno Grisolia of Inspiro Yoga and Elin Jensen. Also Corie Tappin of Soulspace Malibu and Ben Midgley of Crunch Fitness who have shared their knowledge and networks. And Annie Quigley, Ria Knapp and Dani Campbell - three of the best creatives around - for their patience and work on this brand, content, and strategy. I am inspired to work with Jonathan Cartwright and Selena Gearinger at Musette, Kennebunkport Resort Collection, Lark Hotels, the White Barn Inn. and many others. We are thrilled to collaborate with so many good people here in Maine and around the globe as we come together to build community through wellness.

We’ve dubbed this stretch of Kennebunk’s Lower Village ‘Wellness Way’ for the wide variety of fitness and wellness activities offered here - from cycling, surfing, kayaking, hiking, bootcamps, pilates, and yoga to outstanding food, wine, coffee, art, music, massage, and beautiful beaches - just for starters. However you define wellness, you’re likely to find it here.

Over three years ago - June 2020 - we opened our doors. Little did we know what those first 36 months would bring, between a global pandemic and a start-up wellness business, we are amazed and grateful every single day for the trust and support we’ve received from this community of year-rounders, summer residents, and visitors. Our doors are still open, and we are still listening to you, our friends and fellow yogis, with gratitude.

Please join us now + benefit for a lifetime. In the studio, on the deck, by zoom, at home, on vacation, school, or work.

Everyone is welcome at WTB. Hope to see you soon.

Leslie
