Chelsea McCormack is Cranbrook-born and -raised. After moving away to discover the world and become a certified holistic health coach, she returned last year and just a few weeks ago opened a yoga studio, The Inner Roar. The yoga studio offers regular classes and a full drop-in schedule. “My studio is special because I don’t focus on one specific style of yoga . . . we all need something different and my goal is to use this studio to hold space for people for whatever it is they may need,” said McCormack. “Life is not black and white, nor should your practice be.”
