A Space Built for You
Uniquely Grounded was born from a belief that every person deserves a place where they can exhale, expand, and become more fully themselves.

Where It All Began
Uniquely Grounded began during a time when I was struggling with my own health. Feeling sick and searching for answers led me to take a deeper look at nutrition, herbs, plant-based living, juicing, movement, and the way I was caring for my body. What started as a personal journey to feel better became a journey of learning, healing, and reconnecting with nature
As I continued learning and growing, I discovered a passion for herbalism and holistic wellness. I realized wellness was about more than what we consume—it was about creating space to move, rest, nourish, connect, and be intentional about how we care for ourselves.
That passion became the vision for Uniquely Grounded Wellness Sanctuary—a space created to bring people together through herbal wellness, movement, education, community, and intentional self-care. What began with my own search for wellness has grown into a place where others can pause, reconnect, and become uniquely grounded. Rooted in nature. Guided by intention. Grounded in you.
Our Mission
"To create a sanctuary where people of all backgrounds can come home to themselves — through movement, nourishment, and mindful presence."
Radical Inclusion
Every body is a yoga body. Everyone belongs here, exactly as they are — no experience, no flexibility, no particular size required.
Whole-Person Wellness
We believe true wellbeing weaves together the physical, emotional, and spiritual. Our offerings honor all three.
Rooted Community
Transformation is deeper when it happens in community. We cultivate a space where everyone lifts each other up.
Intentional Practice
We move slowly and with purpose. Every class, every workshop, every breath is an act of intention.
The Sanctuary
Uniquely Grounded opened its doors in Des Moines in 2026, in a sun-filled studio designed to feel like a deep breath. Warm wood, living plants, natural light, and the quiet hum of a community finding its footing.
What began as a small yoga studio has grown into a full wellness sanctuary — offering yoga, nutrition workshops, mindfulness practices, and immersive retreat days. Through it all, the heart of the space has remained the same: a deep commitment to every person who walks through the door.
