Do it for the dopamine! That’s my favorite lyric from my new favorite mat mobility track, Retail Therapy by Cloudy June. I admit the song hits a little close to home (“It’s hard to feel bad when you’re spending a bag…buy pretty things that I don’t need, I did it for the dopamine!”). But it is great advice for this class: do it for the way it makes you feel, for that fantastic badass feeling of moving to great music, feeling muscles activate inside you, sending strength through your body. It’s so much better than anything I have ever bought! And here’s something else: that badass dopamine hit makes me think some badass thoughts, like, maybe there’s nothing stopping me after all. Maybe I have had the strength and the control all this time, and just didn’t really know it. Well, I know it now. You will, too (and don’t worry if you don’t like doing pushups; we’ve got mods for them, and anything else you don’t feel like doing). Here’s the playlist:

Nancy credits Oula Power with giving her courage and grit, not to mention a sense of being just a bit bada**, something she believes everyone needs in this life. It all started when Nancy found Oula in 2020 at the Billings YMCA. That led her to Studio Soul, and she knew she had found her people. With the help of the fabulous instructors there she certified as an Oula instructor herself and, not long after that, as an Oula Power instructor. She now draws strength, love and joy from every Oula class, every single time.
