Without darkness, there is no introspection or personal growth. Embracing and understanding our pain helps us to heal. Recovery is strength.

“Solstice” is a yoga dance rave party created by Jaimis Huff. It takes place in Charlotte, NC, and was recently hosted at Catawba Brewing Company. Various yoga practices each have their own specialized form. Solstice seeks to encourage us to examine and embrace our inner darkness. Without darkness, there is no introspection or personal growth. Embracing an understanding our pain helps us to heal. Recovery is strength.

A solstice is the longest day or darkest night

We are crueler to ourselves that anyone else could ever be. Solstice is the practice of relinquishing doubt and celebrating wisdom. To learn more, visit Jaimis at her website. Also, thanks to @KaylaFrankYoga for the footage and to @SweatNetClt for their kindness and enthusiasm.

What to Expect from a Personal Trainer

Personal training is not about perfection—it’s about getting started. A good trainer meets you where you are. They’ll modify movements, scale intensity, and guide you with patience. Worried about being judged? You won’t be. Trainers work with all types of people: beginners, older adults, people with injuries, and those just starting their fitness journey. Everyone starts somewhere. Your first session is a fresh start, not a finish line.

Jack Kirven is a mobile personal trainer in Charlotte, NC. He is the owner of INTEGRE8T Wellness.
