Victoria Frye - Black Lotus Sanctuary Vibes, Lupus Warrior, Serving the Underserved, and Lifelong Connections

Staying Conscious with Meg & Aly

We are so excited to share with you the fiercely strong, fun, and inspiring Victoria Frye. Victoria founded the Black Lotus Sanctuary Collective, a nonprofit that assists people through whatever transformation they are going through and she is currently in training for her 500 RYT. Victoria tells us about her journey as a lupus warrior and how she got into the fitness world through hiphop dance classes and bikram yoga. We go on to discuss how these lead her to develop her own teaching style of yoga (Black Lotus Sanctuary Vibes) that accepts all body shapes, sizes, colors, and sexual orientations, her passion for seeking out communities that are underserved and cheering for the underdog, and how it has been so important for her to create a space that is welcoming and allows people to be seen, not only in the studio, but outside the walls of the studio as well. She goes on to inspire us through her commitment to her lifelong friendships, choosing a partner/husband who has similar morals and values, and how together they consciously parent their sons. The conversation ends with us discussing the future of the health/fitness/wellness industry and how important it is for our students and ourselves to continue to be aware, conscious, and grow as a yoga instructor.
