Shri Studio, Urban Revitalization Yoga
The goal was to allow the space to feel wide open for when classes grew | room dividers are built from plumbing pipe and fishing line and $10 Ikea shade panels | the dividers are on wheels to accommodate special populations of people | light fixtures give the studio space a warm glow, set on dimmers | the altar in the center of the room is actually a modern Dutch dresser found in the Rhode Island Antique Mall in Pawtucket | the statues above the alter from the Berkshires | and the Shiva statue from her sister’s travels in Bali
