Leaders vs. Student. We are firm believers that within one’s self we already know what is best and needed for us to thrive. We develop a practice where you are in the front seat and we are here to guide you to the return to self, awareness, clarity of what your body needs, whether that’s support and patience, or a bit of a push into slight discomfort for growth. In a society where being healthy has become prevalent yet often is left for last, we recognize your leadership in taking care, responsibility, and being accountable to your wellbeing. When you take care of you, you take care of me, the load becomes lighter and we honor the leader in you, to not sit in the benches, rather come out and play, and hey, maybe sometimes even play big!

Guide vs. Teacher we are here not to teach for only you can truly know the needs of your body, mind and soul. We have done the journey to sitting at the seat of our soul. Our practice at body rituals is one from the somatic therapy aspect so we understand you will be well served to be guided yet the grandest teacher is the teacher within you. In this life it truly is you against you, our guiding style is to equip you with numerous techniques and tools that you are supported to practice at your pace, your need, your dharma.

what does it mean to play big

To play is to get out of the performance setting of living for image or identity and instead discover.
Adventure and be childlike wonder on what best works for you. To play big is to wonder and play without the fears, doubts, uncertainties that have been passed down. It’s to release encapsulated pain or trauma that limits us from following our hearts desires. To play big is not to change the world or become CEO, though it can be if that’s what makes your soul sing. To play big is that we free ourselves in such a way that we go after the things that light us up, not because their practical, because its what calls us, propels us and ultimately what lifts the collective. To be at peace is the greatest gift you can give yourself and those around you for as you liberate yourself, you unconsciously create that ripple effect for those around you.

I can't say enough about Body Rituals. This studio, Raquel(the owner) and all the guides are truly amazing in their art. I started doing yoga and Pilates here over 7 years ago. The personal touch involved in every session, no matter the class, kept me coming back. The classes are not overflowing. The guides get to know their students by name, their strengthens and weaknesses; it definitely becomes like family. BR has helped me grow in more ways than one. Yoga became my outlet and passion. Any questions or concerns I had the guides are always available to answer or give tips.

Body Rituals is a small, friendly studio that offers different classes in yoga, pilates, spin, and boot camp. They have amazing instructors who really help motivate and teach you the proper technique. I stumbled upon this place and have tried just about every class. I love the atmosphere and the small class size.Everyone is friendly, and I love coming here. The owner is so knowledgable and is an incredible masseuse as well. If you are lucky enough to experience her adjustments or massage, you will feel healed!

i started going to body rituals earlier this year when i purchased a groupon because i wanted to try something different than the gym. i loved the experience so much i kept on adding classes to my account &i now go regularly once or twice a week. it's a large studio that offers many classes that has between 6 and 12ish people- i usually switch it up between pilates, yoga, and barre. i've always had Raquel or Devyn as my instructors &i appreciate them so much, they really care about everyone in the classes &push you just the right amount to help you progress. highly recommend
