Last month, Forsei Consulting kicked off Campaign for New B’s by highlighting Yards Brewery, and they had a blast learning all about their process, and even stopped in for a few brews with the Philly Collective. This month is all about yoga. If you haven’t already noticed, yoga seems to be taking the city by storm. It makes sense for yoga studios to be sustainable, but is it feasible?

Luckily Forsei met Dawn of MotherHeart Yoga Studio in Fishtown. Her small studio is becoming a big pioneer for other studios working to be more sustainable. They sat down with her at her studio on Girard to learn more:

What sets MotherHeart Yoga studio apart from others?

The mission statement. We’re dedicated to nurturing and supporting truth seekers. Those looking for true meaning and not accepting practice at face value. There’s no ‘end’ to yoga, so we want to highlight whole story, using practice as a doorway to understand a much larger perspective.

What made you start the studio?

It’s been a long time in the making, I was working with Urban Roots (now Threshold) and was potentially going to take over the wellness center, it was really small for yoga though! As I outgrew that space, it served as the push I needed after teaching for others for 17 years to start something on my own.
