Team Spotlight : Sami
“Im so proud of being part of a studio culture that shows up for one another, offers encouragement, and creates a welcoming, positive environment where everyone feels they belong.”
Sami has been the friendly face at the front desk of Center Street Studios since 2022. She quickly became an essential part of what keeps the studio running smoothly day in and day out.
She says she knew right away there was “something really special about the studio,” and over the years, she’s helped shape exactly what makes it so. Whether she was behind the front desk, stepping into classes, or eventually leading as Studio Manager, Sami brought a steady, positive presence. She fell in love with all kinds of movement here—reformer, mat, and vinyasa flow yoga —sharing that “no matter what type of movement I’m doing, I always feel so much better afterward… even if it takes a little convincing to get myself there.” Very relatable, Sami!
Some of her favorite memories include the energy of March Matness and our holiday events (Turkey Burn and Jingle All the Way always come to mind), but what stands out most is the way she speaks about this community. “We’ve all worked together to build and nurture the Center Street Studios community,” she says, reflecting on her time here. And she’s absolutely right—Sami has been a huge part of that growth, helping create the supportive, welcoming environment we all love.
As she heads into her next chapter, we’re appreciating her parting words: “Show up for one another, offer encouragement, and continue creating a welcoming, positive environment where everyone feels they belong.” Sami, thank you for everything you’ve given this space—you’ve left your mark on all of us, and you’ll always be part of this community 🤍
