October Student of the Month: Sharon Maier-Kennelly!
Meet Sharon, a dedicated member of our Namaspa community who completed an incredible 90 classes during our Summer Challenge and is approaching 1,200 classes! 🙌
Sharon’s yoga journey began over 35 years ago with a college PE elective, where she fell in love with the practice. She found Namaspa during the pandemic through our online 6 AM classes, starting a few days a week before asking herself, “Why wouldn’t I want to practice every day?”
And that’s been her goal ever since!
For Sharon, yoga is about more than physical fitness. It’s a daily opportunity to cultivate gratitude, self-awareness, and the wisdom to adapt her practice as she grows.
Although she practices primarily from home via Zoom, Sharon feels deeply connected to the Namaspa community through the warmth and inclusivity of our teachers.
Her favorite pose? Warrior II. 🧘♀️
“I love the fierceness and taking up space on my mat!”
And her dream yoga destination? The red rocks of Utah!
Sharon, thank you for reminding us that community extends far beyond the studio walls and that showing up for ourselves, day after day, is something worth celebrating.
We’re so grateful you’re part of Namaspa! 🤍
