Yeah, and I'm glad you feel calm.

So the whole space was designed around a feeling.

Everything we do at Kickwich, when you first work with the designer,

can be difficult just because it's like the words are all feeling.

And we wanted this room in particular to feel like a hug.

We all lead such busy lives.

We're on the go all the time.

And I feel like sometimes with movement, we'll go to a class, like a 30 minute class, and then we rush back out into the outside world, into real life.

And we get on our phone straight away and we don't give ourselves any moment to stop and breathe.

And sometimes movement means that we process things in our body.

It might be emotions, whatever it might be.

And so we wanted to give people and create an experience with Kick Studio.

So you come in, you do the class, and then you come into this community space.

And if you want to journal, if you want to connect with someone new, but it's kind of just this buffer between the movement space and then the outside world.

Oh, thanks, Rae.

All of the classes are grounded in somatic movement.

So you will come out into this area and you will have just, depending on the class, like yelled at the top of your lungs, danced it out.

That I feel like creates a moment of connection as well.

And then you come out here and then you're like, well, we just yelled together.

So now we can be friends.
