Grand Opening: A Space To Grow Opens In Downtown Troy

A Space To Grow is the newest addition to Troy’s Downtown area and will celebrate its grand opening during Troy Night Out on Friday, Sept. 26.  This unique wellness cooperative is a space where somatic movement educators, meditation & mindfulness mavens, holistic health practitioners, and birth & baby professions come together to support you and your family—mind, body and spirit.

The concept was conceived of and developed by Buffy Owens and several other practitioners have joined in to teach and share their passions with Troy. For years Owens had a deep-seated desire to belong to a space that was more than a location to grow her business, but a Space To Grow Community.  A space to develop meaningful professional and personal relationships, where like-minded practitioners could support one another in growing their life’s work and passion by creating an inviting communal space, sharing knowledge & know how, and comrade. A space bustling with mindfulness and mommy groups, mediation, movement and personal development classes of all sorts.  A space that is safe enough to be home to support groups, sacred enough for spiritual pursuits, and playful enough for your kids (or your inner kid) to exude a joyful ‘yippie’ as you walk through the door.

Owens moved from San Diego to Troy nearly three years ago this fall and has been sharing the Feldenkrais Method with the Capital District ever since. She is currently the only active and fully certified practitioner in the area and has over 15 years experience in the mind-body fields. She is admittedly addicted to the art of learning and the wonders of meditation and mindfulness practices. She also takes particular joy in supporting women through pregnancy and in enhancing the lives of children with special needs & extraordinary gifts.

“I have always believed that if we truly want to transform our families, our communities, and our world – we must begin with ourselves. My intention is for A Space To Grow to be a place that nourishes all of us as individuals,” Owens said.

Whether looking for a movement or meditation class, improve your health and wellness, or seeking support from pregnancy and into motherhood— A Space To Grow offers something for everyone.

A Space To Grow’s Grand Opening will be held on Friday, September 26th from 4:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. There will be refreshments, a chance to meet the practitioners, and experience everything from the Feldenkrais Method to How to Sign Language with your Baby or Toddler, and much, much more. Space is limited and it is first come, first move with the open house classes. So make sure to visit the website and check the schedule and arrive early: http://aspacetogrow.org/events/
