Parenthood & Purpose: Minimize the Stress and Make Time for YOU
2021-05-20 19:30 - 21:00
It can be hard to find time as parents to fold all the laundry, match all those little socks, meal plan and keep all those toys at bay – let alone find time for yourself to do the things that fill your cup up.
Join us for our next Parenthood & Purpose event where will practice yoga + learn about ways to decrease stress through self-care and connection. Host and yoga teacher Ella Frances will lead us through prenatal and postnatal yoga flow.
After movement, we will hear from Stephanie of How2Mom and Monica from Melanated Mamas on how we can create space and time for ourselves as parents. With some discussion and journaling, we will develop a realistic and individual plan that supports our self-care. We will close with some community connection and personal shares and maybe make some new friends.
A portion of this event’s proceeds will go to the Jeremiah Program.

Parenthood & Purpose Event: Presence over Perfection
2021-03-21 14:00 - 15:30
Parenthood & Purpose: Presence over Perfection
Parenthood is hard and we were never meant to do this job alone. It is hard to find time for it all, let alone reflect on who you are becoming outside of care-giving. Join a group of like minded parents to discuss topics like childbirth, pregnancy, mental health, and how to keep moving with or without kids. We are here to nurture the nurturers out there, create community and ignite your purpose.
Join us for our next virtual Parenthood & Purpose event with Sasha from SashaFit and yoga teacher Ella of Ella Frances Yoga. Sasha is a first time pregnant mama, personal trainer and yoga teacher. During this workshop Sasha and Ella will remind you how to choose presence over perfection.
Sasha will work us through a challenging full body circuit with pre/postnatal options. After our circuit, Ella will cool us down with a gentle yoga flow. Post sweat, we will connect with each other in an open discussion on what strength means as parents and individuals, how rest can be a sign of strength and how to choose presence over perfection.
A portion of this event’s proceeds will go to the Jeremiah Program.

Whatever you’re down for, we’re here for it. We’re here for you. And we believe you deserve a space just like this, where you’re accepted and loved in all the messiness that comes with being a Mama.

Parenthood & Purpose Event - Keep Moving
2021-02-25 19:00 - 20:30
Parenthood & Purpose Event with Dr. Neil Crane & Dr. Matt Wiest
Parenthood is hard and we were never meant to do this job alone. It is hard to find time for it all, let alone reflect on who you are becoming outside of care-giving. Join a group of like minded parents to discuss topics like childbirth, pregnancy, mental health, and how to keep moving with or without kids. We are here to nurture the nurturers out there, create community and ignite your purpose.
In this virtual event, yoga instructor Ella Frances and business owners and dads, Matt Weist of The Center of Mvmt, and Neil Crane of Uptown Core will encourage you to Keep Moving as parents.
Sometimes when we take on the role of “parent”, our identities and priorities in other areas of life fall away. What do you want to find in yourself again? What simple steps can we take every day to ground ourselves in our priorities?
In this workshop, Ella Frances will lead us through a gentle yoga flow and meditation. Matt and Neil will then bring us through a strength workout and breathwork series to open up our minds and bodies to conversation and connection. We’ll discuss simple ways to add movement into your everyday routine, the importance of community and accountability and how both of these things can help rebuild our identities.
All movements will be scaled and offer modifications for all levels including prenatal and postnatal friendly options.
