Our mission
In a world where everything is moving so quickly, we want to give you the space to take an intentional breath and pause for a beat. In a time where we are constantly plugged in, yet ironically more disconnected than ever, we want The Circle to be the sanctuary that brings you back to your true center.
It is our divine mission to create a safe, inclusive and high-vibrational home for you to take care of yourself, build community and practice your art freely. We strive to remind you that all the light and love that you put out into the world, will inevitably come right back around to you.
At The Circle, we are committed to providing you with all the essential tools you need to come home to yourself and to vibrate at your highest frequency through yoga and stretch classes, calming meditations, soothing sound baths and engaging community events. Our serene healing room sanctuary is waiting to embrace you for a mentorship, private yoga session or an intimate 1 on 1 Reiki session.
The Circle will host elite dance classes with the best instructors in the world; classes intentionally designed to take you to the next level as a mover. We will continually encourage you to explore the limits of your abilities and embark on a transformative path toward greatness.
The Circle also offers versatile rental spaces for you to explore your own creativity, tune into your own ideas, self tape, create content or train in 1:1 sessions with expert instructors. We have thoughtfully stocked our retail shop with eco-conscious and organic products, stylish clothing, and essential metaphysical supplies to genuinely support you on your journey.
At the Circle, we will always work to keep our prices affordable because we believe dance and wellness should be accessible for everybody. We will offer donation-based classes so that our vibrant community can come together, uplift, and support one another in our shared pursuit of excellence. Every dollar you donate above the class minimum will be used intentionally to serve another community member who may need a helping hand. At The Circle, we want to wholeheartedly encourage you to give what you can and take what you need.
Come as you are, ready to explore the depths of your mind, heart and creativity. Our family here is waiting to embrace you, support you and encourage you on your path to excellence. Let The Circle be your safe haven, your springboard, your home away from home. We can’t wait to meet you.
They say what goes around, comes around - so let’s keep sending out our best.
“The Circle is the beginning that has no end. From the sacred center of creation comes unlimited potential and infinite possibility.”
