Thank you for your continued support during our transition, as we await our new studio home in the Sprague Union District! Less than a 5 min drive from the BUDDHIO, same zip, and in a 'South Perry-ish Yoga' location, we will look forward to reopening in Spring of 2021. In the meantime, please join us for LIVE ZOOM or pre-recorded classes to meet your scheduling needs!
Welcome to the CLUTCH™, a place to gather and nourish your inner being through yoga, dance, therapeutics and mindful movement. Home to a collective of independent wellness entities, our mission is to support your journey toward a healthy lifestyle, and your body's innate ability to heal. We endeavor to honor your unique strengths and potential as you build a resilient foundation from which to navigate the waters of life.
Breathe, be well, and may you abide joyfully.

Breaking Surface
Let no one keep you from your journey,
no rabbi or priest, no mother
who wants you to dig for treasures
she misplaced, no father
who won't let one life be enough,
no lover who measures their worth
by what you might give up,
no voice that tells you in the night
it can't be done.
Let nothing dissuade you
from seeing what you see
or feeling the winds that make you
want to dance alone
or go where no one
has yet to go.
You are the only explorer.
Your heart, the unreadable compass.
Your soul, the shore of a promise
too great to be ignored.
~ Mark Nepo

From our community
In love with this studio! Amazing atmosphere, great teachers, and wonderful classes. Sunday morning flow is essential for me and I loved my Thai yoga therapy session with Shawn. Would recommend this place to anyone and everyone!
-Amanda
As a new student who is VERY much a beginner, I have really enjoyed these classes. The instructors are really sweet and take the time to work with me where I am at instead of pressuring me to keep up with the class.
-Paul
I have had classes with four instructors Sandy, Shawn, Jutta, and Nina, and have enjoyed every one! Such a gentle, positive environment! I feel so good after class. Hooked.
