Conservatory (n.)

What do you think of when you hear the word "Conservatory'?  It might bring to mind a vast hall with echos of violins, or a lush greenhouse, or a hall of easels smelling of oil paint.  Well, we're a little bit like that, but also a lot different.  

​

Our Conservatory is a community centered place for learning.  We primarily teach art and yoga, with the goal of helping you feel good and healthy in both body and mind.  We teach from a trauma-informed lens, welcome all bodies and ability levels, and our classes will help you grow and meet your personal goals - all while having a ton of fun!

 

Here are some traditional definitions of a Conservatory and how we relate:  

​

1) A place for preserving or carefully keeping anything

We preserve and share knowledge of yoga and arts -- particularly their power to inspire, heal, and unite.

​

2) A greenhouse for growing or displaying plants

In our plant-filled space, we cultivate and grow creativity, skills, and community. We plant seeds of knowledge & ideas, provide opportunities to grow skills, and continually share the resulting fruits with others.

 

3) A place of public instruction and training in some branch of science or the arts

We provide a space to practice the disciplines of art and yoga through classes rooted in creative play, history & philosophy, and science.
