A Quick Throwback: Richelle’s Spotlight Q&A

We asked Richelle a few fun questions when she first joined the HSCA yoga family—here’s what she shared:

Q: What is your favourite part about HSCA or the Hillhurst Sunnyside community?  

A: I love how family-friendly the HSCA is, with an on-site daycare, a weekly farmers market, and the lively Riley Park just across the street. 

Q: What inspires you? 

A: Hearing family and friends share their challenges with stress and body aches motivates me to show them how yoga can help. Seeing yoga's positive impact on others inspires me to share its benefits with everyone. 

Q. What does community mean to you? 

A. To me, community means having a welcoming space to come together and connect. Working from home makes me crave that shared energy with others who love this neighbourhood as much as I do. 

Q. What’s something that recently made you smile? 

A. Getting a free sample of delicious cheese while I waited for my sandwich at Peasant Cheese. If you know, you know.  

Q. Anything else you'd like to share? 

A. As much as yoga and mindfulness has been there for me, so has journaling. It's a way for me to process feelings and emotions (good and bad) and I actually kept every single one of my journals since I was a kid. Dating back to 2003.
