Watsonville Yoga Dance & Healing Arts embraces new location
A
fter a year and a half of pandemic challenges, Watsonville Yoga Dance & Healing Arts is once again finding its footing. The business is settling into its new location (734 East Lake Ave. #16) while expanding its programming and services for children and adults both online and in-person. Owner Phoenix Artemisia says that the past three months have been a whirlwind, but things are finally coming together.
“It settled down for a while, and it was very joyful here for a couple months,” she said. “But then Delta hit, and we had to pivot once again. We’ve gone back online for some classes, and [in-person] for others. We’re sort of in both worlds now.” Earlier this summer, Watsonville Yoga moved from its studio on the corner of Main and West Beach streets, where it had been for four years, to one in a small business complex on East Lake Avenue. The new location is quieter, off the street and comes with more parking.
