Just as yoga teaches practitioners to welcome and gain wisdom from challenges, Glow Yoga is adapting and evolving to make the most of these unfamiliar times. “We’re being forced into new ways of doing things, and if we just ‘glow with the flow’ while keeping an open mind, these changes will make us even better in the future,” says owner Jennifer Guthrie.

For example, the two large studio spaces at Glow’s Gulf Shores location are now one massive space allowing for students to spread out confidently. Quarantine also gave the studio owners time and motivation to build a gorgeous outdoor studio and create a new virtual platform that is launching this month.

Before the pandemic, students at Glow were used to packed classes where the physical space was shared intimately. “That closeness created a community connection that many of our traveling students say they have never experienced before,” Guthrie says. “Fortunately, it is not just the proximity of our mats that create connection. As we are socially distancing in class we know that this strange time is actually bringing us all closer together. And after months of consistent uncertainty, the connection and community that a yoga studio provides is more critical to our well-being than ever before.”
