Our Story
In the spring of 2022, two women named Sarah and Kaylee met for the first time. Sarah was a seasoned yoga teacher who owned Clifton House, a popular yoga studio that was well-known in the community. Kaylee, on the other hand, was a social media influencer who’d recently felt a deep pull to pivot into the world of wellness.
Despite coming from different backgrounds, Sarah and Kaylee shared a deep connection to the number 22, which had been their favourite number since they were children. As fate would have it, they immediately hit it off and bonded over their shared passion for creating community through the practices of yoga, movement and wellness.
Sarah, being an experienced mom with 2 older boys acted as a guide and mentor to Kaylee in many aspects of her life. Meanwhile, Kaylee, with her expertise in social media, retail, and marketing, became a guide for Sarah. Over time, they discovered that their talents complemented each other perfectly. They found that they could support each other in every aspect of their lives, whether it was in parenting, yoga, or building their careers.
It wasn't long before Sarah and Kaylee began to dream about creating something together. They knew that they wanted to create a special place where people could come together to practice yoga and movement, and feel a sense of wonder, balance, and connection to both themselves and the community around them.
As they talked about their vision for this space, they found that they always pulled similar images, buzzwords, and had similar thoughts and visions. It was clear to them that they were meant to build something special together.
And so, Studio Twenty-Two was born. With Sarah's expertise in yoga and movement, and Kaylee's marketing skills, they built a beautiful studio in the heart of their community. The mission of Studio Twenty-Two is to offer a generation seeking wonder, balance, and connection a sanctuary to practice. To empower your mind, body, and spirit both on and off the mat, so you can reclaim your alignment and unlock your full potential.
