the secret of life
More than a place to practice yoga, SOL is a place to feel good here - with the community and connection we are all looking for.

Catherine DeFrancesco
SOL Yoga was brought to life by our founder Catherine DeFrancesco.
Nearly twenty years ago, Catherine discovered yoga as a form of movement that was kinder to her body after years of stressful workouts, on top of raising four children and juggling the demands of home and career.
Little did she know the profound impact it would have across every area of her life. Over time she grew to love the practice more and more. She saw and felt the physical changes, but it was the emotional transformation that was most profound. Life became less about the hustle and more about going with the flow. She ate better, slept better, and went about life as a busy mother and entrepreneur with a greater sense of ease.
Why SOL
So profoundly did yoga change her life that she coined it SOL, the Secret of Life. After earning her teaching certification she imagined owning a studio one day, and soon opened the first SOL Yoga in Wynwood, Miami in 2018.
Despite the name, DeFrancesco says there is no real secret to SOL's magic, only that it was brought to life to be shared with others. Because confident women share.
Today SOL is more than a place to practice yoga. It is a place to feel good here, with the community and connection we all need and are seeking - in the comfort of stunning, state of the art infrared heated studios, with luxe amenities, smoothie bars and more.
Whether you are new to the mat or a seasoned yogi, we look forward to welcoming you to SOL Yoga.
Namaste.
