Hello fellow magical beings!
I’m Rachelle Singh, the creator of
SUTTON STUDIO
Ikigai is a Japanese concept that means your ‘reason for being.’
‘Iki’ in Japanese means ‘life,’ and ‘gai’ describes value or worth. Your ikigai is your life purpose or your bliss. It’s what brings you joy and inspires you to get out of bed every day. Ikigai says you’ve found your dream career when your career includes these four qualities: what you love, what you are good at, what you can be paid for, and what the world needs.
Creating SUTTON STUDIO has gifted me the profound feeling of embodying IKIGAI. Pouring my many years of teaching experience and expertise into one small space has allowed me to fulfill my soul dream: having a big positive impact on a small loving community. I have been in the Sutton area for 15 years, learning and growing with all of you, and I am honoured to continue this journey together.
I am continuously inspired to innovate the ways we train, using my creativity to reach our common goals. My personal philosophy about training has become so simple over the years: have fun when you are moving your body! I have gone down many nerdy rabbit holes to learn copious amounts of interesting information about the human body. The most important thing I have learned is that
joy and authenticity are the most powerful agents of transformation.
When attending my classes, or working with me privately, you can count on giggles! One of my gifts is the ability to create experiences that combine kinetic education and joyful soul connection. Music is also a big part of the experience we share in my studio. You can expect inspiring musical influences that fully open your being to the depths of present moment.
My magical dog Mcfly is my teaching assistant and we both look forward to creating a joyful experience with you at SUTTON STUDIO!
