Yogi Highlights

We Love Riley Gerlinger!

One of the really awesome things about owning our own business is our ability to reconnect with and serve the people we knew growing up back in our home town. It’s an incredible thrill to receive orders from those we knew in high school or college. This week’s yogi highlight (our 18th!) came to us through the experience of reconnecting with a high school friend of ours, Linette Piercy, aunt to the remarkable and beautiful Riley Gerlinger. Linette has been the most amazing supporter of Big Raven Yoga — we’ve lost count of the number of yoga mats she’s purchased from...

We Love Rachel Schromen!

This is the 17th in our ongoing series highlighting our happy yogis. This week we’re profiling the incredible Rachel Schromen. Rachel is an impressive individual. She is remarkable at helping people make connections and discover opportunities. She is SO good at connecting people whose lives will be better for having been introduced to one another. She is an incredible listener and generous friend. Every time I talk with Rachel I leave the conversation with a little nugget — some food for thought — that I’m always grateful to have in my pocket.

We Love Gina Fink!

This is the 16th in our ongoing series highlighting our happy yogis. This week we’re profiling the incredible Gina Fink.

At a networking event for eCommerce businesses we got to talking to avid yogi and eCommerce business owner Gina Fink. This chance meeting and the conversation that ensued has been such a treasure for our...

We Love Alicia Arellano!

This is the 15th in our ongoing series highlighting our happy yogis. This week we’re profiling the amazing Alicia Arellano. Alicia has been an incredible friend and ardent supporter of Big Raven Yoga. She is a fierce cheerleader and perpetual inspiration for determination and drive. Alicia is a director with Zyia Active yoga clothing, and she ordered a fully custom yoga mat to help promote Zyia. Not only is she a director at Zyia, but she’s also a fitness instructor, including an instructor for Pound, which is… well, it’s rock-n-roll cardio drumming, basically. I’ve done a lot of Pound workouts, and...

We Love Jody Smith!

This is the 14th in our ongoing series highlighting our happy yogis. This week we’re profiling Jody Smith of Wayzata, Minnesota, who was the first customer of ours to order 4 (FOUR!) yoga mats in a single order, way back last fall before we had even really began promoting our work. Our first reactions was… Huh? That’s gotta be a mistake… OH MY GOD! SOMEONE JUST ORDERED FOUR MATS! FOUR! And then we did the happy dance around our workshop. It was an incredibly exciting day for us, needless to say. (And, to top it off, she was a complete stranger...
