Exploring the Origins of Inner Space Yoga
Angela Ryals, a seasoned yoga enthusiast and avid cave diver, discovered her passion for creating bolsters and other yoga props within the depths of an underwater cave. Deprived of light and sound, she found solace and inspiration in the serene environment. This led to the birth of Inner Space Yoga, her business nestled in the heart of Barnardsville, specializing in crafting exquisite handmade bolsters.
From Cave Depths to Yoga Studios
Ryals’s journey as a bolster maker began in 2006 during her yoga teacher training at the esteemed Asheville Yoga Center. The studio’s owner entrusted her with the task of reupholstering their bolsters, sparking her fascination with their intricate construction. With her background in quilting, Ryals meticulously honed her sewing skills and delved into the art of fabricating these dense cotton cushions. Encouraged by the feedback and support of local yoga instructors, she launched Inner Space Yoga in 2007.
A Labor of Love, Fostering Mindful Relaxation
As one of the few bolster manufacturers in the nation, Ryals dedicates herself to producing exceptional quality bolsters. The labor-intensive process requires the assistance of her skilled craftsman, Ace Baggott, who collaborates on pattern development and precision sewing. Inner Space Yoga offers an array of bolster designs, including round, oval, and flat, complemented by meditation cushions and aromatic eye pillows. Each piece adorns vibrant patterns, showcasing Ryals’s profound appreciation for aesthetics.
A Sanctuary of Comfort, Extending Beyond Yoga
Inner Space Yoga’s bolsters and props have found their way not only into yoga studios but also into the homes of discerning customers who seek comfort and relaxation. The remarkable versatility of these creations allows them to enhance the ambiance of beds, sofas, and other seating areas.
