Testimonials

“I really appreciate the teachers passion and knowledge around the work they do.  I’ve gone to a few other studios in the area and Salt Haus offers a unique approach that I haven’t found anywhere else nearby.  Plus, the Salt Cave is a sublime addition and experience unto itself! - Returning Student

“I started going to Sault Haus because a friend recommended I try a class since I was new to yoga and meditation. My first class was a Kundalini class with Erin and it was truly amazing, I’ve been back many times since. I even went to a full moon dance party on the grounds which was fantastic! But the hidden gem of our Hopewell community is the beautiful salt cave, it’s definitely a must see. What draws me to keep going back is that no matter what level you may be, even a beginner like me, the owners, instructors and participants are all warm and welcoming. I urge you to check it out.” - Local Yoga + Workshop Attendee

“Every aspect of the Sault Haus experience is peaceful, beautiful and feels like the perfect self-care experience both physically and spiritually. I have brought several friends and family members there and they have loved it too. I cannot recommend the Sault Haus enough!” - Repeat Workshop Attendee
