Moving Together
A Tradition Rooted in Strength, Wellness, and Friendship
Routines shape us more than we realize. At The Lavender District, we’re firm believers that community rituals, big or small, have the power to bring us closer, both to ourselves and to each other.
A tradition has taken root alongside our Friday morning coffees, one that’s just as energizing but very different. We lace up our sneakers (or pull on our favorite grip socks or go completely shoeless) and step into a fitness studio together almost every week. Group classes have become our way of reconnecting with movement, rediscovering strength, and growing together outside of our usual routines.
Reimagining Fitness
For all of us, fitness used to look a little different. We’re retired athletes, once surrounded by competition, team drills, and strict schedules. Those days taught us discipline and drive, but they also left little space for listening to our bodies in a deeper, more nurturing way.
Now, we’re discovering a new chapter of movement, one that’s less about performance and more about connection. We’re leaning into workouts that challenge us while honoring our current state. We’re embracing what it means to move for longevity, energy, and joy.
And we’re doing it together!
Our Favorite Spaces to Sweat
Every week brings something new, but some places have become staples in our fitness rotation. Studios that not only challenge us physically but also offer a sense of community and inspiration.
Transform brings us back to the importance of core strength and balance. These classes aren’t just workouts; they’re reminders of what we’re capable of, even as our bodies evolve and change. They’ve helped us find confidence in new forms of movement and carve out time for our physical and mental well-being.
[solidcore] has pushed us in ways we didn’t expect, in the best way possible. Their full-body, slow, and controlled workouts have helped us build strength from the inside out. It’s hard, humbling, and incredibly empowering. We walk out a little sore and a lot proud.
Little Things That Make It Easier (and Cuter)
Let’s be honest, sometimes, the right outfit makes all the difference. A fresh pair of Vuori leggings or Olirose grip socks can shift the mood. Comfort and quality matter, especially when you’re carving out time for yourself.
These brands reflect everything we value: sustainability, performance, and pieces that actually last. They’re more than stylish—they’re built to support the lifestyles we’re building.
The Bigger Picture
Fitness, for us, isn’t about looking a certain way or hitting a number. It’s about feeling strong in our bodies, staying grounded in community, and investing in health in a way that’s sustainable and fulfilling.
As we move through different stages of life, we’re learning how to move with intention. How to listen to what we need. How to let go of expectations and celebrate progress in every form.
And most importantly, how to keep showing up, for ourselves and for each other.
