From a serene studio at 15 Purchase Street, Élan Yoga has not only captured the hearts of the local community, but it has caught the eye of New York City and Washington, D.C. as well. Owner Jennifer O’Connor’s distinctive approach and solid business model led her to our capital last month. Élan Yoga was selected to serve as an ambassador representing Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses at a White House Summit. In addition, O’Connor represented female entrepreneurs through the Tory Burch Foundation for the first “United State of Women Day” with none other than President Obama and the First Lady.

“It was an exhilarating honor to be part of the first ever United State of Women Summit that encourages leadership in women and girls,” remarked O’Connor.  “I loved the collaborative spirit and how the summit aligns with our own mission at Élan to inspire vigor, strength and spirit.”
