Inspiring Conversations with Aqila Norris of Soul Work Studio

Today we’d like to introduce you to Aqila Norris. 

Hi Aqila, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today.
My name is Aqila, and it all started with an unexpected heart-tugging event that led me to the practice of hot yoga, suggested by a friend who owned the yoga studio. My children’s father was killed by the NYC subway, and we didn’t receive so much as a sorry. The practice allowed me to deal with serious emotions and to go to the depths of my soul for inner strength and resolve. Later that same friend opened another studio called Sacred and encouraged me to take yoga teacher training. During that journey, I grew tremendously and realized the same power of healing it had for me it could have for others. Along with learning how to guide yoga, I also benefited and learn the practice of healing emotional blockages with flower essences, 

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It has not been a smooth road; however, I would not trade the path I am on for anything. The biggest obstacle is that people do not make their soul care priorities. Therefore, people see my services as either a treat or an emergency. Then with the pandemic, many people became even more discouraged. 

We’ve been impressed with Soul Work Studio, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
My business aligns people with the art of being; soul work invites people to live fully self-expressed. Support the intentions of their individualized soul plan. Soul work shows people how to embody their talents and transform their life in ways that are supportive to wellness in mind, body, and soul. Soul Work Studio is known for yoga, dance, flower essences, and oracles. Soul Work Studio is known for creating vibrant affirming after-school programs in the arts. Soul Work facilities staff retreats. Soul work also coaches with the enneagram, a beautiful tool for self-study. Essentially Soul Work is full-service wellness provider. 

So maybe we end on discussing what matters most to you and why?
Emotional health, self-understanding, communication, and the healing arts. I believe that human interaction would improve if we had wonderful connections and self-awareness.
