July 8 marks one year since we officially launched Sola!

This milestone isn’t just about the release of a product. It’s about the evolution of a brand built with purpose. Sola started with a mat, but we stand for more than movement. 

Where We Began

The idea for Sola was born from a simple need: a mat that could support a wide range of movement without compromising on intention, design, or sustainability.

But behind that need was something deeper. As a teacher and practitioner, I saw how powerful it is to show up for yourself, especially when it's hard. I wanted to create a brand that reflected that kind of discipline. One that believes in simplicity, sustainability, and the quiet strength that comes from consistency.

There were early designs and moments of doubt. There were questions about the materials, the message, and whether this idea could truly stand on its own. But it was my vision for Sola, what it stands for, and more importantly, what I hoped to share through it that kept me moving forward. As a trainer, what always lit me up was inspiring others to embrace the discomfort that comes with growth. That same spark is what fuels me now to share Sola.

What We’ve Built

In the past year, we’ve launched the mat. Created to meet the needs of your practice, but grounded in presence, quality, and intentionality.

Alongside the products, we’ve built tools to support your journey like the Sola Calendar, curated movement playlists to guide reflection and consistency.

And most importantly, we’ve built a community.

You’ve shared your rituals, your stories, and your spaces. Whether through tagged photos, DMs, or word-of-mouth, every message has meant something. Each one helped shape what Sola has become.

What’s Ahead

We’re just getting started.

Without giving too much away, you can expect:

• New tools to support your movement

• A deeper focus on education and self-guided practice

• More ways to bring intention into your everyday routine

Whether you’ve been with us since day one or just unrolled your first Sola mat, we’re so glad you’re here.

Thank You for Moving With Us

This community is what made Sola real.

Every time you paused to breathe, carved out space for movement, or shared your journey; you brought our mission to life.

So thank you. For showing up. For growing with us. And for reminding us what this is all really about.

Here’s to year two and all the movement, stillness, and growth ahead.

With gratitude,
The Sola Team
