How do I book my free first class?

You can book your first class by reserving a spot on the studio schedule, where our booking system will invite you to create an account and then you'll be able to add your free class to your cart.

How do I choose the right class for me?

If you're new to the studio, start with the class description and look for the style that best matches your goals. Since Valora Movement focuses on mindful yoga and fitness, you can choose based on whether you want a more yoga-centered or strength-centered experience.

How long are classes and when should I arrive?

Our classes are 45 - 60 minutes long, with time built into each class to warm-up and cool-down. We recommend that you arrive at least 5 minutes before class to set up your mat and get whatever props ready that you will need for class.

What level of fitness do I need to have to be ready for a class?

Valora is a space for anyone who is interested in getting moving, whether you're returning to fitness after some time away or already have a daily routine. Our classes are built to be a place where you can challenge yourself, at your own pace. Your teacher will offer modifications and cues throughout class to help you increase or decrease intensity as you need.

WELCOME TO VALORA MOVEMENT

We're a well-rounded fitness studio that wants to inspire you to move more often and more joyfully.

We've built our studio to be a welcoming space where you can reconnect with your body, challenge yourself, and feel supported by new friends along the way.

Reclaim your power from within.

BODY AND MIND

We believe the best fitness classes are about so much more than just challenging your body physically (although that's one amazing benefit too!).

Good movement classes create the space for you to move through old energy, find new internal strength, and build a habit of showing up for yourself. And, they're fun along the way. Because it's easier to be consistent with your routine if you enjoy how you move.

Here to be a bright spot in your day.

WELCOMING TO ALL

No matter the class, the heart behind it is the same:

OUR PURPOSE TOGETHER

Breathe

Every transformation begins with a breath. We create space to slow down, reconnect with your body, reduce stress, and build mindfulness through intentional movement. Whether you’re stepping onto your mat for the first time or you’re a seasoned athlete, your breath is the foundation that helps you feel present.

Build

Building strength is more than training muscles. It’s building confidence, resilience, and self-belief. All of our classes incorporate strength training and functional movement to help you build physical strength, while developing the mental confidence to take on challenges both inside and outside the studio.

Burn

Every transformation begins with a breath. We create space to slow down, reconnect with your body, reduce stress, and build mindfulness through intentional movement. Whether you’re stepping onto your mat for the first time or you’re a seasoned athlete, your breath is the foundation that helps you feel present.

A PLACE TO MOVE THROUGH IT ALL

We know life can get a little hectic sometimes, so we wanted to create one place, where you could build strength, create flexibility, and move mindfully.

Barre Sculpt

A high-energy, low-impact workout that combines ballet-inspired moves with pilates and strength training to tone and lengthen.

Mat Pilates

Focus on core strength, stability, and mindful movement. This class builds a functional foundation for all other movement practices.

Yoga Sculpt

The perfect blend of power yoga and strength training. We incorporate light weights to increase resistance and build lean muscle.

Paula - Founder/Owner

@valoramove

Movement and Fitness have been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. As a former college athlete and a fitness coach/instructor for over 25 years, Ive experienced firsthand how movement can transform your body, but also your confidence and the way you feel about yourself. Now as a 54yr old single mom of 3, Ive learned that life can bring unexpected hurdles that sometimes make us forget just how strong we truly are. Movement has been one of those ways Ive found my way back to my own inner power, strength, and confidence-,and its something I want to share with my community.
As a newly 200RYT, Yoga Sculpt/Strength training certified, my passion is creating a welcoming space where you an reconnect with your body, challenge yourself, and feel supported along the way. I look forward to meeting you on your mat!!

With over 3 years of practice, I have experienced firsthand how yoga can transform both the body and the mind. For me, yoga is more than movement. It's a journey toward greater physical strength, mental clarity, balance, and self awareness. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming environment where my students can find success as they define it. I look forward to flowing with you!

Hi! My names Isabel, I am 27 years young, from Vermont, and a D3 collegiate soccer alumni from salve regina university. I work in marketing at a credit union from 9-5 and teach yoga 5-9 most days! I have been teaching yoga sculpt and power vinyasa for 2 years. Yoga is my safety, stability, and community. I cannot wait to flow and sculpt with you soon! When I’m not working or doing yoga, I love going to the beach, skiing, painting, and hanging with friends and family.

I believe movement is about feeling good in your body and building a stronger connection between mind and body. After experiencing firsthand how Pilates supported both my physical and mental well-being, I developed a deep appreciation for its ability to help people feel stronger, more balanced, and more grounded. My classes focus on core strength, mobility, posture, and mindful movement in a welcoming and supportive environment. I'm passionate about helping clients move with confidence and discover the benefits of Pilates both on and off the mat.

Jenny - Yoga Flow

@andninedesign

I teach a mix of high-energy and grounding yoga styles. With ten years of experience teaching Power Yoga, Hot Yoga, Restorative, and Yin, I try to bring thoughtful sequencing and an approachable style to every class. I want my classes to give you both softer, slower movements and fun, creative ways to build strength. I want you to feel free to explore and find your own pace, and for your yoga mat to be a place where you feel comfortable and confident!
