Every single class offered is designed to be accessible to any and every body. Each class is a full-body workout that is high intensity, but low-impact, making it safe, challenging and effective. Classes are small, with plenty of personalized attention from a highly trained and passionate instructor. Mindfulness and breath are incorporated, teaching members how to cultivate the strength, stamina and focus necessary to be fully present in life on and off of the mat. With the ever-increasing prevalence of trauma in the general population, causing many individuals to feel unsafe in and/or disconnected from their bodies, trauma-informed care is an integral part of Origin’s teaching methodology. Beyond being safe and effective forms of physical exercise, Origin’s modalities of Yoga, Barre Fitness and Pilates were intentionally chosen as means to reconnect individuals with their bodies. Nicole has designed a unique method that focuses on individualized proper posture and alignment and the muscular engagement necessary to maintain that poise not only throughout class, but outside the studio doors in everyday life. Origin’s classes are empowering and fun, and Nicole’s style of teaching is not only inspirational, but educational. Mission: To transform lives through mindful and accessible fitness. Vision: Origin provides a welcoming space where members can begin a journey of self-discovery and exploration through sustainable functional fitness modalities. Trauma-informed care is an integral part of Origin’s teaching methodology, making it a destination for a wide demographic of fitness enthusiasts. Origin’s founder, Nicole and other highly trained and hand-selected instructors are committed to empowering bodies and minds in a safe, supportive and encouraging way. Origin will host local classes, workshops and events, and be the source of a one-of-a-kind, nationally accessible fitness certification program, allowing its vision to have the greatest impact.
