kind words …

“I was fortunate to attend a women's yoga gathering at The Back Forty Studio. The setting is a dream! You're moved by the property the moment you drive in. Olympia is welcoming, intuitive and transparent to all that she offers.

She's a busy lady, gather up your friends and create a class of your own - you'll be wait-listed but it's well worth it. This studio is special, and even more the offering is led by a unique soul. A little bonus is her incredible bluey Frankie! Thank you for an energetic, soothing and Frankie-full experience, love Carm”
