Introduction: This week our guest is Dorcas Quynn Mcwilliams, who was my first Yoga teacher. She is the founder of Sol Yoga in Frederick, Maryland, US. Dorcas has had a profound impact on my life not just by being my teacher in the first few years of my Yoga life but as a role model, as a parent, as a mentor and as a friend. As we have both moved physically in different parts of the world we still connect because of our foundation in Yoga. Her studio in Frederick has been adjudged as the “Best Yoga Studio” for many years by local residents. We talk about the importance of stillness, travel, Yoga and much more. Currently, she lives thousands of miles away from her home in New Caledonia with her three children and her husband Adam. Listen to us on: Apple Podcasts | Android | Google Podcasts | RSS

Episode 9: Soul to Sol Yoga: Dorcas Quynn Mcwilliams

ENJOY THIS EPISODE: With her roots deep seeded in Frederick, Dorcas began traveling, falling in love, beginning a family and raising them on 5th Street. Now living in New Caledonia and continuing Sol Yoga from her Dorcas Quynn McWilliams new residence, Dorcas Quynn McWilliams’s talents and passion for yoga is nothing short of extraordinary. Dorcas began practicing yoga with Inchworm Yoga, an old traveling studio in Frederick. Her teacher Katherine was her mentor, and pushed her to teach classes. Throughout the years, Inchworm Yoga closed, and Dorcas was looking for the next step. After a few years in Real Estate with Macintosh Reality, Dorcas found her perfect Yoga space, and began her journey to entrepreneurship, a serendipitous journey at that.   Sol Yoga is in its 11th year of growth. Dorcas views her business as passion, not profit. Being authentic and following the “golden rule” in her practice is especially important to her. Running a business 8,000 miles away can be especially challenging, so she values authentic and deep rooted communication to take the reigns. Sol Yoga is a representation of the effectiveness of the practice of yoga. Simply having a space to practice yoga, can change lives. Dorcas believes Yoga is more than poses, it’s returning to your natural state, connecting with nature and finding stability in everyday life.   Sol Yoga More From Sol Yoga: At Sol Yoga, our mission is to infuse and inspire health, wellness and wholeness into daily life through the practice of yoga. In our welcoming studios, students escape the stresses of life, rejuvenate their energies and improve their lives. We are committed to serving the community and encouraging people to care for themselves and others. Sol yoga extends far beyond our mats and our studio space.  We are an established vibrant community filled with fun, intelligent, witty, soulful and sincere people living life a little better thanks to yoga.  We step out of our lives and into the studio for a stretch, a re-set, community connections, some peace, to build strength or to perhaps, to study and learn. With 3 locations, 5 studios, over 70 classes per week and oodles of amazing teachers, we’ve got yoga for everyone, anywhere.  Beyond classes, we offer private sessions, special workshops, transformational trainings and educational series, Ayurveda training and services, kids yoga, aerial yoga and we’ll even bring yoga to you with on-site programs. The sky is the limit with Sol Yoga.  Join us today. -See more at: iTunes LINKS AND RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE: Sol Yoga Facebook Sol Yoga Website REVIEWS HELP A TON Thanks for joining me again this week.
