I couldn’t be more proud 🖤⚔️

Everyone is learning these flows SO quickly, and watching their confidence grow with every class has been incredible.

If you’ve been thinking “I could never do that…” — come prove yourself wrong.

No experience necessary. Just show up ready to move, learn, and Keep Becoming.

⚔️ Tomorrow | 3–4 PM

Come find your Bladesong. 🖤

⚔️ Bladesong is back tomorrow⚔️

Join us at 10:00 AM for an hour of movement, flow, breath, and a little bit of magic.

📍 The Forge Boxing Club
416 S Oglesby St, Salem, IL

There’s something different about moving with a blade in your hand.

You slow down.
You breathe deeper.
You become more aware of every movement—every shift of weight, every line, every breath.

The sword isn’t the point.

You are.

The practice is simply a way to make you pay attention.

No experience necessary. Just come as you are.

Keep Becoming. 🖤

⚔️ THE TRAINING CONTINUES.

This is the advanced version of the flow we’ve been building in class— but there’s also an alternative for every movement you see here.

Because every warrior starts somewhere.

A stance.
A breath.
A single movement repeated until it becomes instinct.

We train the body.
We sharpen the mind.
We learn to move with intention.

And somewhere along the way…

we become a little harder to break. 🖤

The Bladesong is being FORGED, come see what we’re building. (see what i did there?😉)

⚔️ Keep Becoming.

⚔️ TONIGHT, WE MOVE. ⚔️

⚔️ BLADESONG CLASS TONIGHT ⚔️
🕖 7:00–8:00 PM
📍 The Forge Boxing Club, (The Salem Community Center, 3rd floor)

*If you don’t have a weapon, don’t worry, we have you covered*

There’s something different about moving with intention.

Not rushing.
Not performing.
Not trying to become someone else.

Just breathing, moving, finding your balance—and remembering what your body is capable of.

That’s what we do here.

✨ Bladesong is movement with a little magic.
Strength. Mobility. Breath. Balance. Focus. And yes… a sword or two. 🗡️

And tonight, we get to step into it together.

Bring your water, your mat if you have one, and yourself exactly as you are.

No experience necessary.
No perfection required.

Just come move with us.

Keep Becoming. 🖤

This isn’t sword fighting.

There’s no opponent. No winning. No perfect choreography to memorize.

No expectation that you already know what you’re doing.

Bladesong is about something else.

It’s about slowing down enough to notice your breath. Finding strength in controlled movement.

Building balance, mobility, coordination, and confidence.

Learning to move with intention instead of just moving through the motions.

And yes… that movement happens to involve a sword. ⚔️

Because there’s something about holding a blade that makes you stand a little taller, focus a little harder, and become a little more aware of yourself.

You don’t have to be athletic.
You don’t have to be flexible.
You don’t have to be a “sword person.”

You just have to be willing to try.

Come as you are.
Move with intention.
Keep becoming.

Saturday was only the beginning of The Bladesong. ⚔️

Thank you to everyone who showed up, moved with me, laughed with me, and trusted me enough to step into something that didn’t exist a few months ago.

Thank you to those who have posted, commented, shared and showed up.

The Movement may have officially started… but the story is still being written.

Official class times and prices are pinned at the top of the page, come learn something new 🖤

There is so much more to come—more movement, more strength, more stories, more MAGIC (pay close attention to that one🤭), and more becoming.

Thank you for being here at the beginning.

Keep Becoming. 🖤

⚔️ THIS WEEK’S BLADESONG FLOW: THE CURSEBREAKER ⚔️

Inspired by Feyre Archeron from A Court of Thorns and Roses — a woman who was never supposed to survive the things that broke her… and yet she did.

Feyre reminds us that becoming stronger doesn’t mean becoming untouched by hardship. It means finding the courage to keep choosing yourself, even after you’ve been changed by what you’ve endured.

The Cursebreaker is a five-pose-flow about resilience, transformation, and stepping into the strength that was already inside you. It’s controlled. It’s fierce. It’s graceful. And it asks you to move like someone who has survived—and is still becoming.

✨ This week, we break what binds us.
✨ We reclaim our strength.
✨ We keep becoming.

⚔️ The Cursebreaker
📖 Feyre-inspired Bladesong Flow
🕒 Class: 3:00–4:00 PM
📍The Forge Boxing Club, 3rd Floor.

Come ready to move, breathe, and maybe leave a little of your old self on the floor.

Keep Becoming ⚔️

I’m not even sure I have the words yet. 🖤⚔️

Today, something that once existed only in my head became real.

The Bladesong Movement officially began—and I am overwhelmed with gratitude.

To everyone who showed up, moved with me, laughed with me, learned something new, and trusted me enough to step into this strange little world I’ve been building… thank you.

Thank you for believing in the idea before you even knew exactly what it was.

Thank you for bringing your energy, your curiosity, and your willingness to try something different.

And a very special thank you to The Forge Boxing Club and to the Salem Community Center, for giving me a place to bring this dream to life. I will never forget that kindness. 🖤

I started The Bladesong because I wanted to create a space where movement could be more than exercise. Where strength could coexist with calm. Where we could breathe, move, learn, laugh, challenge ourselves, and discover a version of ourselves we hadn’t met yet.

Today was the beginning of that.

The Codex has its first page.

The song has begun.

And this is only the beginning.

To everyone who was there today: thank you for being part of the first chapter.

And to everyone who couldn’t make it—there’s still a place for you here.

Keep Becoming. ⚔️🖤
