Our Story
Grass Roots has been a part of the St Kilda community for over 12 years.
Since 2022 the studio has been under new ownership to steer Grass Roots into its next chapter. Our team embody a wealth of knowledge and experience and share our values of community, connection and inclusivity.
Community
Community is the soul of Grass Roots. It’s the thread that brings us together. You will feel it the minute you walk through the door. The laughter, warmth and care permeates throughout the entire studio and into each practice. Grass Roots is also committed to supporting the local community of St Kilda and surrounds, through donations and fundraising to support those in need.
Connection
At the heart of Grass Roots is a sense of connection. Be that to lineage, Country, oneself and each other. The team acknowledge the ancient lineage of yoga practices from India and South Asia.
In the spirit of reconciliation, Grass Roots acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Bunurong Country, on which we work, practice and come together from and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present and acknowledge that sovereignty has never been ceded. This Land always was and always will be Aboriginal Land.
Inclusivity
Grass Roots prides itself on an inclusive environment, welcoming everyone from complete beginners to those who have been practicing for years. “The feeling as you walk into the door is that of a warm hug” - first time visitor.
