Back In The Groove

08/04/2026

Happy August folks! I hope everyone is having a great summer!

It's crazy to think about, but next month marks two years of Back In The Groove. I had a blast with the anniversary raffle last year and will be bringing that back for sure. I've got a few other things rattling around--more info to come!

If you haven't booked for August (or September), you're gonna want to get on that. I only have a handful of slots left this month! This coming Sunday has a 12PM or a 2PM open, and after that there is no Sunday availability until mid-late September.

Part of this is just being busy and booked up (thank you!) but part of this is due to my upcoming trip to the AMTA National Convention. I am so excited to bring some cool new knowledge home to you guys!

I do want to let you all know that effective September 1st, my rates will be changing a bit. I've dragged my feet as long as I can, because I know everything is going up everywhere, but I do also need to be fair to myself! Pricing will be as follows:

30 min: $60
60 min: $120
90 min: $175

(If you would be unable to continue sessions due to the price change, please PLEASE speak with me so we can figure out a solution together!)

You are also welcome to purchase gift cards either through me or online at the current rate through the end of August.

Thank you for reading this big ol' wall of text! Go enjoy some summer!

A friend sent this over--just a fun little blurb about the history of our building! I love being in a space with a story to tell. ❤️

In 1944, the Dover Mill Committee achieved a major milestone in revitalizing the city's abandoned mills. With the Esmond Blanket Company moving into the complex that year, all of the available space in the city-owned mill property was officially leased or sold. This was a significant turnaround for the city, which had purchased the empty Pacific Mills at auction just a few years prior to help save the local economy. Additionally, around this time during World War II, the U.S. Government took over Mill No. 1 and the Picker Building through condemnation proceedings, an action for which the city was anticipating a federal payment of $53,800 at the end of 1944. The city continued to act as a landlord for the other buildings, even operating a central "Mill Heating Plant" that supplied live steam at cost to tenants like Eastern Air Devices, Miller Shoe, and Clarostat. Throughout the 1950s, new industries such as Profile Rubber Company and Sattini Inc. moved into the vacant spaces. But the former mills went into serious decline in the 1960s and through the early 1980s. The turning point came in 1984 when two developers, Tim Pearson and Joseph Sawtelle, purchased the entire complex and formed the Dover Mills Partnership. They undertook a massive restoration project: the exteriors were chemically washed, the interior walls were sandblasted to remove layers of paint and expose the original brick, 895 windows were replaced, and an outdoor courtyard was constructed in front of Mill No. 2. Liberty Mutual Insurance Company became the first major tenant in the refurbished complex, followed by tech and business firms like MBNA, PC Connection, and Business Express. Mill No. 1 was similarly renovated, rebranded as "One Washington Center," and filled with numerous small businesses. Instead of succumbing to the "rust belt" decay that plagued many other New England mill towns, Dover successfully adapted the structures into modern, high-tech facilities. Much has changed again, but today the restored Cocheco Mills and the Washington Street Mills, both owned by Chinburg Properties, serve as architectural anchors and economic success stories in downtown Dover.

Welcome to April! I've got the most incredible view from my office right now.

The next few weeks are a bit wacky for me, so if you haven't booked yet I would recommend doing so. It also may not be a bad idea to think about May. As always, if you don't see something that works for you, please feel free to contact me directly.

Enjoy your weekend!
