It’s fun. It makes me smile. It’s a bit different and it makes me wonder.

Choosing a name to represent your services is hard. Even harder is to verbalize the feeling I get from practicing yoga. I found that many words commonly associated with yoga didn’t quite feel like enough. So I decided instead to look at things I love, things that make me smile. I love chocolate. (organic, free trade, dark chocolate – the best!) Out of chocolate came cocoa. I think there is a bit of elegance to this word, and I like that cocoa is perfect in its most simple and natural form, and that it can be transformed into something absolutely divine. I also think it is fun to say.  I have always loved fun things (who doesn’t?)  - when I was about 5 years old, I took a break dancing workshop and the instructors gave us each nicknames. Mine was Jellybean.  This is where the bean came from.  I think the word bean is fun to say as well. Sometimes you just have to go with your gut and your heart.    

Yoga is fun. It makes me smile. It’s a bit different and it fills me with wonder.
