Before joining Moxie, I’d lived in Covington for about a year but hadn’t met any friends. I’d also been struggling with not having the “picture perfect body” but felt too beaten down to try out another a gym. The first time I stepped into Moxie, everything felt different. I was incredibly shy but the women were all so warm and welcoming that I instantly felt at home. The instructors and fellow members have never been less than encouraging and fully supportive of who I am today, no matter my body shape or how much I struggle to complete a perfect yoga move that day.  I have less migraines and I’m also a lot happier with my body image just knowing that I’m working and getting stronger everyday. I’m still working on coming out of my shell but in the months since I’ve joined, I feel happier, healthier, and more connected to my new community than ever before.
