Catch up with Libby, our June Student of the Month!
When we first met Libby, her life was very different. She was living here in Baltimore and joining us live. Since then, she has suffered unthinkable loss, has moved multiple times and yet, has stayed true to her yoga practice with us. We are forged and formed in that hot room day in and day out in the best way possible. You can find a Bikram Yoga class most anywhere, but when community becomes like family, you stay connected no matter where you go. We're so grateful to have a virtual option for students to continue with us no matter where they go in the world.
"It’s been two years now since my son’s passing and since our move to Texas. Healing is still very much an ongoing process—some days soft, some days sharp—but I’m finding my way, one breath and one moment at a time.
Texas has been mostly good to us. There’s a steadiness here, a different kind of landscape and pace that has helped me rebuild pieces of myself. Even so, I deeply miss everyone in Maryland. Though I wasn’t originally from there, the community I found—my yoga family, friends, and the people who held me through some of the hardest seasons of my life—will always feel like home in its own way. I’m endlessly grateful for those connections and the love that continues to reach me across the miles.
Life here has its own rhythm now. I’m still working, practicing Bikram whenever I can, swimming, and traveling back to Maryland to stay connected to the people who matter so much to me. Those visits refill me and remind me that distance doesn’t diminish love.
This is just a small update from my heart: I’m still healing, still growing, still finding beauty in the life unfolding here in Texas. And I’m grateful—truly grateful—for every person who has walked with me, supported me, and stayed close through all of it. My heart holds many places, and somehow that feels exactly right.
Even from a distance, I’ve stayed connected to the yoga community that shaped so much of my healing. I practice with the studio remotely because it still feels like home — the energy, our teachers. There’s a familiarity in their voices and their rhythm that settles me in a way nothing else here quite does. When I log in, it’s as if a part of my old life reaches through the screen and reminds me who I am beneath all the layers of grief and rebuilding. It’s one of the few places where my body remembers safety, strength, and softness all at once. That continuity has mattered more than I can express."
