History

Rick Powell and Behnje Masson opened From The Heart Yoga Center and Prasad Juice Bar on Fulton St. in 2000. After ten years at their first location, they expanded to 714 Wealthy St. SE in 2010. This space fulfilled their wish to have more space for workshops, events, larger classes and a garden view in the city.
