A Community Wellness Studio for Meyers
A wellness studio rooted in movement, breath, and community.
Project Description
💫 MISSION:
At Alpenglow Wellness, our mission is to help you feel strong, safe, and supported in your body. Through movement, breathwork, and nervous system education, we guide people—especially outdoor enthusiasts, caregivers, and active adults—toward sustainable strength and recovery. With your help, we’re building a studio in Meyers, CA that supports real wellbeing, not just performance.
⚠️ THE PROBLEM:
Most fitness and wellness spaces still reward pushing harder—but what we really need is a place to recover. Many people in our community are dealing with burnout, injury, or stress with no clear tools to bounce back. We’re creating a studio where nervous system health, movement, and breath come together to meet you exactly where you are.
📍 THE OPPORTUNITY:
Meyers is a vibrant part of South Lake Tahoe filled with climbers, skiers, cyclists, and families—but it currently lacks dedicated wellness spaces. This studio fills a real gap. With your help, we’ll create a welcoming environment for classes, coaching, breathwork, and community events—all with a focus on sustainable health and nervous system care.
🧘♀️ WHAT WE’RE BUILDING:
Alpenglow Wellness Studio will offer:
Small group movement classes
Nervous system reset sessions
Breathwork and recovery workshops
Opportunities for local instructors and practitioners to rent space and host offerings
A place to gather, learn, and feel better—together
This is wellness, built for the real world.
💸 HOW WE’LL USE THE FUNDS:
Your support will directly help us:
Cover first-year rent and utilities for the space
Purchase equipment (yoga mats, props, cleaning supplies)
Set up booking software, insurance, and essential business systems
Fund community outreach and opening events
Our goal is to raise $40,000, which will give us 9–12 months of runway to grow sustainably—without touching personal savings.
👯♀️ WHO’S BEHIND THIS:
I’m LeeAnn—wellness coach, Physical Therapist Assistant, and yoga teacher with over a decade of experience helping people feel better in their bodies. My daughter Hailee, a passionate climbing coach and movement leader, will also be part of the studio’s vision. Together, we’re building something rooted in care, strength, and community.
🙏 THANK YOU:
Every dollar, every share, and every word of encouragement helps us get closer to opening the doors. You're not just helping fund a space—you're creating a home for healing, connection, and strength in the heart of South Lake Tahoe. Thank you for believing in this vision.

The Campaign FAQs
1. Where will the studio be located?
The studio will be located in Meyers, CA, just outside of South Lake Tahoe. We’re excited to bring wellness, movement, and nervous system education to this beautiful mountain community.
2. When will the studio open?
Our goal is to open in late 2025, depending on funding and renovations. Backers will receive regular updates on our progress, including photos, behind-the-scenes looks, and opening announcements.
3. What kinds of classes will you offer?
Alpenglow Wellness will offer small group classes focused on strength, recovery, nervous system regulation, breathwork, and gentle movement. You’ll also see workshops, pop-up events, and guest instructors from the outdoor and wellness world.
4. Do I have to live locally to support the campaign?
Not at all! We’ve created rewards for both local and long-distance supporters. The strong to summit group program and 1:1 virtual sessions are perfect if you can’t join us in person.
5. What happens if you don’t reach your funding goal?
Your contributions will still go toward launching the studio—every dollar helps with rent, equipment, and foundational setup. If we don’t reach the full amount, we’ll scale the opening timeline but remain committed to making the space a reality.
6. Are donations tax-deductible?
