Have you ever had a truly emotional response to something? Not just “that’s so funny!” or “how awful!”, but having a feeling welling up from deep within you that you can’t control and just need to share with anyone around you. Brides stereotypically have these moments as they plan for their wedding day, particularly when they find the right dress and put it on for the first time. Overwhelming tears of joy along with the realization that your entire life is about to change. I’ve had a few of these moments recently as I realize how far I’ve come on my path and appreciate what I have going on in my life.  I am planning a new studio, an amazing new studio for yoga, Pilates, dance, Zumba, nutrition, overall wellness and community. Its a huge undertaking and like any small business a huge risk, but I feel like my entire life has been pointing towards this without me knowing it. I registered my name, Sundance Studios, officially with the county and started casually looking at spaces for rent. I found an amazing space in a good location that could be perfect, and me being me, I started dreaming about how the studio would run, where I would put things and how I would decorate. For whatever reason, I thought about my logo, which is being created by awesome local artist Angela Fernot, and realized a component of it is almost identical to a painting I was given as a child by my 4th grade art teacher. I nearly cried and immediately told Gavin. I often emote to him, but I’m loving that more and more of my emotional responses are directly related to experiences I have because of him and with him. Things are finally starting to come together…. <3
