Axis Yoga Studio Event
2025-09-20 08:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York)
Nestled inside of the Folkmoot Friendship Center, Axis Yoga studio is more than just a place to practice, it’s a sanctuary. With soft lighting, natural wood accents, and the gentle scent of sage or lavender in the air, the space exudes warmth from the moment you walk in. It’s not flashy or extravagant, just sincere, soothing, and deeply grounded. Soft music hums in the background, and there’s always a cup of herbal tea waiting for you in the corner.

Here, no one is trying to outstretch the person next to them. Everybody is welcome, every story, every struggle, every level of experience. The teachers know your name, and maybe even your dog’s name. They greet you with genuine smiles and meet you where you are, whether it’s your first class or your five-hundredth.

There’s no pretense here, just people coming together to breathe, stretch, and reconnect. Whether you stay for a single class or become part of the studio family, you’ll leave feeling grounded, accepted, and gently reminded of what it means to come home to yourself.

Blue Ridge Art Way was founded on the idea that art should be welcoming to everyone, whether you’re picking up a pencil for the first time or have been painting for years. We offer in-person workshops, private lessons, and community events in drawing, watercolor, and oil painting. Our approach emphasizes strong fundamentals without rigid rules, encouraging personal, expressive, and joyful creation in a relaxed, supportive environment.

Led by artists and educators Stephanie and Rylan Love, Blue Ridge Art Way is dedicated to helping people reconnect with their creativity while building a community that lifts each other up. From free classes like Drink & Draw to small business meetups and immersive workshops, we’re here to make art less intimidating and a lot more fun. Come as you are and leave with paint on your hands, a sketchbook full of ideas, and a renewed sense that you were always an artist.
