Note to our Empower/Solstice Community ☀️❤️🙏
To our Solstice & Empower friends,
We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding and support during this challenging and uncertain time for all.
We hope you have been enjoying our new virtual classes. We've been busy learning new platforms to bring your yoga and pilates classes to you! There's a learning curve with the new technology, on our end and yours, so continue to bear with us - we are all learning as we go, but we got this!
We've all been pushed out comfort zone in many different ways, but we carry on and ADAPT. Our yoga and pilates has taught us to be strong, flexible, and balanced - and to breathe through the challenges.
To our Monthly Studio-Hoppers members:
We ask for your continued support during this time if you are able. We promise to reopen our doors back up as soon as it's safe and wise, but in order to do that we need the support of our community to get us through. Monthly members will have unlimited access to all Virtual Classes. We plan to offer 2-3+ classes per day. As more teachers are trained in the new technology, we hope to add more classes. If you are experiencing hardship at this time, please reach out and we will work with you.
For Everyone:
We encourage you to connect with the community for virtual classes.Drop-In rates and Unlimited weekly membership are availableInvite folks who have never been to Solstice or Empower to join us! Perhaps you have friends and family who live in a different town, state, or country - they are welcome to join in! Or maybe you have a friend or family member who has always wanted to try yoga or pilates. Virtual classes are a great way for beginners to get started. Please spread the word!
Virtual Class Prices:

We sincerely appreciate all of your support, patience and understanding, as well as the encouraging notes and comments. We have been flooded with messages, so if you sent us a note and haven't heard back, feel free to reach out again just in case we missed it!We really love to hear from you! And we MISS YOU! At this time when literally ALL of our social interaction is from a distance and through technology, connecting through virtual classes brings us together to feel that strong sense of the caring community around us.
We really are, Stronger Together!

Studio Update: Virtual Classes!
To all our friends at Solstice & Empower,
We miss you!!
Thank you for all your supportive notes regarding the decision to temporarily close to #flattenthecurve. It was a tough decision but we're confident it was the right thing to do. And thank you for your patience as we've been working out the details of getting online classes to you!
We've been working hard the last two days, exploring different platforms for virtual classes. As we continue to iron out the kinks, we would like to offer you two FREE Facebook Live Classes today!
Wednesday March 18th
10:45 am Inferno Hot Pilates with Elaina St. John
12:30 pm Power Hour with Stephanie Serpa
These classes will be "LIVE" on Solstice Power Yoga & Empower Yoga Facebook pages. Please tune in! Going forward it is our plan to offer 2 - 3 live classes per day. The schedule will vary from day to day, but we will do our best to bring all your favorites to you! We are also exploring ways that you can access audio/video recordings on demand.
Studio-hopper members will have unlimited access to all online classes. Classes will also be available with a "virtual pass" for those who are not monthly members. More details to come as we firm up our virtual schedule.
These are unchartered waters for us and there is a learning curve so please bear with us as we explore these new platforms. We may try a couple different ones and we welcome your feedback!
We sincerely appreciate your continued patience! Stay tuned for more information as we roll out these virtual classes. They will be different than what we are used to, as is just about everything in our world right now, but we will adapt to our "new norm" and continue our journey with healthy bodies and positive attitudes!
Remember, we will get through this - together!
We truly are Stronger together
Stay Healthy, Stay Strong, Stay Positive and Stay Home!
❤️❤️❤️
Lots of love,
Lisa & Team Empower/Team Solstice

Studio Closure until March 30th (possibly longer TBD)
An important message to our cherished Empower/Solstice community-
This is the email we've been dreading, and hoping (wishfully) that we would not have to write. But it has become evident that it is no longer prudent for us to offer classes in the studios at this time. We were hoping the extra measures and precautions we've been implementing would be enough. And at a time when we ALL need classes and community more than ever, we SO want to stay open to be there for our community...for you and for us. The comments we get about Empower & Solstice being "the best part of my day" or "keeping me sane" is true for us as well. It's WHY we do what we do. And especially now, when we are extra-stressed, anxious and fearful, we crave a sense of normalcy and comfort, and the strength of our community.
But all the evidence out there is making it increasingly clear that the socially responsible decision is to close our doors to do our part to reduce risk in our community, reduce the spread of the virus and the demands on our healthcare system and protect those not as strong and resilient as we are... to "flatten the curve."
The decision to close was a HARD one. It affects your routine, health, and possibly, your sanity (lol.) The easier decision would be to stay open, hoping that all the extra precautions and cleaning is enough. But the only way to know for sure that we are doing our part to help stop the spread of Covid19, is to close our doors, temporarily, until we have a clearer picture of when it's wise to reopen.
We appreciate your understanding and support during this most challenging time. Almost 30 years as a business owner, 16 years as a yoga studio owner, many ups and downs throughout those years, but this is by FAR, the most challenging landscape that I've faced.
We are working to figure out online classes and the logistics of memberships, etc. I'm hoping our community will understand and be patient as we figure it out. I honestly do not have all the answers right now, but what I do know is that we need to close for now. We will be closed until at least March 30th (perhaps longer, TBD.)
We realize there are still many studios and gyms that may remain open. And you may seek them out during the time that Solstice & Empower are closed. However, we encourage you to follow the recommendations of social distancing and refrain from public areas and gatherings. Get outside for long walks with your dog, go for a run, or enjoy some forced family fun at home 🙂
Wishing good health, strength, peace and love to all of you and your families. Please feel free to reach out to me any time - with concerns, questions, ideas... these are uncertain times for all of us, murky waters for sure. But the dust will settle, eventually. It's not forever. We are strong, we are tough, we are resilient. We will get through this and come back even stronger.❤️❤️❤️
Lots of love,
Lisa & Team Empower/Team Solstice

Empower Yoga Studio Update
Studio Update
(March 15th, 2020)
During this challenging time we are faced with tough decisions. At a time when many of us need yoga more than ever, we continue to offer classes at both studios and are looking to add online/live-stream classes as an option for our community in the coming days.
We continue to closely monitor the CDC and the Massachusetts Department of Health guidance and if we decide to make any additional changes beyond the measures we are currently taking, we will communicate those changes to you.
In addition to the enhanced cleaning and safety measures we have already implemented (detailed below in update from March 13th), we are taking these additional precautions effective immediately:
*All props for classes (blocks, straps) will be removed from the studios. If you like to practice with these items, please bring your own. We will have blocks and straps available for purchase at the studios by the end of the week or you may want to consider purchasing online
*Inferno Hot Pilates & Core Fusion classes will be taught without weights and bands.
*Rental Mats & Towels will no longer be available at the studio. Please bring your own mat and towels. Mats and full-size yoga towels are available for purchase at both studios. Hand towels are also available for purchase for $2.
*All classes are capped at a maximum of 25 people (less than half capacity) which allows for 3 feet between mats. Please sign up in-advance for prime-time classes to be assured space.
* Please consider attending classes at off peak hours.
*We ask that you spread out when you set up, using all three rows at Empower. Please allow plenty of space between you and your neighbor, on each side as well as in front and behind you.
*We are working to add online classes through Vimeo or Zoom as an option for those who wish to practice at home. We are trying to get this implemented ASAP but this is new territory for us. If any members of our beloved yoga community have experience in this realm and could help us, we invite you to reach out.
*Classes at Empower on Sunday, March 15th will be at the discounted rate of $10. We encourage you to sign up in-advance to assure your spot in the class as all classes are capped at 25 people. Specials will be available online.
We urge you all to carry on with an abundance of caution, as well as kindness and compassion. We will get through this, together, with the support, encouragement, and strength of our special Empower and Solstice community.
We thank you for your continued support, patience and understanding during this time and wish you all peace, strength and love.
Lisa & Team Empower/Team Solstice
Health Message to our Community
Your health and well-being are always our top priority. We've been staying up to date on COVID-19 concerns and taking action to protect you and our staff. Additionally we are following CDC guidance and ask that all students do the same.
It has always been our policy to maintain a clean and healthy studio environment. Additional precautionary and enhanced cleaning measures we are taking:
*Cleaning the studios more than ever with disinfectant cleaners after each class
*Increased professional deep cleanings from two to three times per week
*Increased frequency of deep cleaning of blocks and rental mats
*Continually cleaning frequently used surfaces/items in the lobby, studio, and bathrooms with disinfectant cleansers
*Additional hand-sanitizing dispensers placed throughout the studios for your use*Teachers/assistants will be refraining from hands on adjustments/assists
To help us:
*Please bring your own yoga mats, and blocks if possible.
*If you need to rent a mat or borrow studio blocks, weights, bands, etc please thoroughly wipe them down with disinfectant before and after use.
Reminders to everyone:
Stay home if feeling under the weather
Wash your hands thoroughly and frequently and use hand sanitizer often
Cover coughs and sneezes with tissue or inside of elbow
Refrain from touching your face
Maintain a strong immune system with a healthy diet, sleep, exercise, and lots of water!
Now more than ever we need our yoga and pilates classes! Let's work together to maintain safe and healthy conditions for all of us. Please continue to care for yourself and those around you with an abundance of caution. Stay healthy and safe and take one day at a time. We will help each other to get through this challenging time together!

Rest & Digest Yin Yoga with Willa - Sunday, December 1st
Join Willa for a yummy floor-based yin class focusing on poses and meditations to
restore healthy digestion, in the belly and the brain!
Class is appropriate and beneficial for all levels, from advanced and powerful yogis to those with no experience. Though yin can be restorative, it works a little deeper, as yin asks students to explore their edge in a mindful and supportive fashion, with your body, the floor, a blanket and a block as your only props.
Please bring a beach towel or cotton blanket, not a yogi toes, to support you.
