In the heart of Sayulita, tucked just above Don Bonito, The Rose Room Yoga<\/a> has quietly grown into a space where both locals and visitors come to slow down, reconnect, and move with intention. Rooted in community and guided by a thoughtful approach to the practice, the studio offers more than just a class – it offers an experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We sat down with the founder to learn more about her journey, the story behind The Rose Room, and the community she\u2019s built along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you tell us a little about yourself and what brought you to Sayulita?<\/strong>
I grew up on the beaches of the Carolinas and made my way to Sayulita in 2016. I\u2019ve been teaching yoga since 2009, and after leading a retreat here, I felt immediately pulled in by the energy. The people are warm, family-oriented, and celebrate life at every opportunity. The pace, the values, and the access to nature made it feel like home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What inspired you to start this business here, and what\u2019s something most people don\u2019t know about your story or journey?<\/strong>
Most people don\u2019t realize The Rose Room came together pretty organically. I have a degree in biochemistry and always thought I\u2019d continue down that path, but yoga was something I always did alongside it; it\u2019s just part of who I am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I got to Sayulita, I wasn\u2019t trying to start a business. I just needed more yoga in my life as both a teacher and a student. I wanted a consistent, welcoming space, and I knew a few really talented instructors who felt the same. I stepped in, created a schedule, and it grew from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the opportunity came to build the space above Don Bonito, I followed it. Watching the community grow and evolve over the years has been the most meaningful part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83e\uddd8\u200d\u2640\ufe0f 2. About the Business<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What makes your business unique in Sayulita?<\/strong>
The people. I\u2019ve known all of our teachers for years, and they\u2019re all incredibly talented in their own way. Even though we each approach vinyasa a little differently, there\u2019s a shared level of care, training, and respect for the practice. It\u2019s clear everyone genuinely cares about what they\u2019re offering and about the people in the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How would you describe the vibe or spirit of your space?<\/strong>
Warm, grounded, and light. We try to create a space where people can have their own experience without feeling like they need to perform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As teachers, we\u2019re holding an environment where people can listen to themselves a bit more. One person might be building strength, while someone next to them is learning how to rest. There\u2019s a lot happening in the room at once: focus, release, curiosity, laughing, rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like to guide people toward a pose rather than tell them exactly what to do, so they can decide what feels right for their body that day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is there a class or offering that\u2019s especially close to your heart?<\/strong>
Our Teacher Training Program. It brings together everything I care about – integrity, curiosity, and a real understanding of the practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think the world needs yoga, but it also needs teachers who feel grounded and thoughtful in how they share it. That\u2019s what the program is built around. Our next one starts in June!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udc9b 3. Community Connection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What does being part of the Sayulita community mean to you?<\/strong>
It\u2019s an honor. I feel really grateful to be able to share what I love with both our local community and the people passing through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a lot of disconnection in the world, and creating a space where people can slow down, connect with themselves, and be present feels important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you collaborate with any local artisans, organizations, or causes?<\/strong>
Yes! Whenever we can, we support local initiatives. We\u2019ve helped raise money for school scholarships and women\u2019s programs like Casa Esperanza and Mujeres Movimiento.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you see your business giving back to Sayulita?<\/strong>
Sayulita has a really unique energy, and I think it\u2019s important to have spaces that help keep that balanced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We offer a free community class every Friday so anyone can come practice. We also have a trade program for people who want to practice regularly but may not have the means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also offer local scholarships for our teacher training, because I\u2019d love to see more locals here supported in becoming teachers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udf34 4. Personal + Fun<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s your favorite way to spend a morning in Sayulita?<\/strong>
An early walk through the jungle to the beach with my pit bull, Pollo, catching a few waves, then heading out for chilaquiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s one memory that captures Sayulita for you?<\/strong>
Throwing rocks at beer bottles during Sayulita Days..there\u2019s something nostalgic and a little chaotic about it. I think Sayulita Life should rally a petition to bring back Rock Throwing… please \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Community shoutout \u2014 where are you loving right now?<\/strong>
Right now, I\u2019m really into Cafe Coyote<\/a>. Zoey\u2019s created such a sweet space for people to hang out, snack, and connect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\u2728 5. Looking Forward<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s next for you and The Rose Room?<\/strong>
At the core, I just want The Rose Room to continue to feel like a community; a place where people can come take a thoughtful class and feel connected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m especially excited to keep growing the Teacher Training Program in a way that stays true to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any upcoming events or plans to share?<\/strong>
Right now, my focus is on continuing to refine and deepen the Teacher Training – keeping it intimate, hands-on, and supportive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
