Soulace

Soulace A community home and hub for the Flow Arts. Soulace is first and foremost a home for the flow arts of all kinds! Come talk with us and see what we're about!

We host an environment for positive exchange of ideas, skills, and inspirations within the flow community of Nashville, middle Tennessee, and surrounding states. Through learning and practice, we use Flow to enrich our minds, our bodies, and our community. The potential positive impact of the philosophy of Flow on the surrounding community is huge, and we aim to bring Flow into the consciousness o

f as many people as possible. We offer both individual rooms and a larger open space for practice of your flow. We teach classes, host events, and learn and move forward together. As time goes by, we will work with community outreach, charity organizations, and schools to bring positive change and peaceful action into our community.

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well!

It has been a long time and I know you probably aren't expecting to hear from me. I am in the process of cleaning up and retooling my digital footprint as I move towards new projects. In the next 6 months, I will be starting a new business which sells ecologically responsible toys and props, as well as my art. Part of the launch of that business will involve turning this page into something new. I wanted to warn everyone so that it did not appear that I sold this page to some other rando. Of course everyone is welcome to make their own decision on whether they stay a page member and I respect that some may choose to leave. I will leave the history here, and the pictures and videos, for access to anyone who would want to see them. I feel like evolving this page is a better choice than closing it and starting a new one.

Best wishes to you all in the new year and I miss you all, I really do hope life has been good to you over the last few years of challenges, and that you have been able to weather it all as well as anyone could hope to.

Much love,
Fen / Paul

Boosting the signal, as I can.
Performance studios has been going in Nashville for decades now, as an LGBTQ friendly market for high quality makeup and a large selection of rental and purchasable costumes. It would be a massive shame if Covid killed the business, after so long.

At one time, generosity saved Soulace. I am paying it forward.

Please do not go in the space anymore. I know the box is still on the door. That is only so the remaining fridge can be recycled. We are no longer a tenant, and the landlord just called me about someone being in the space. The door code is being changed, but until that happens... it's not our space anymore, y'all. Thank you.

Hi everyone,

With much love, all Soulace memberships are now officially cancelled. You do not have to take any action, I have simply cancelled the paypal payments. Thank you so much for your support over the years, it has meant a ton and made our little venture possible. Tonight is the last show at the space (Brass Menagerie!). Sunday is move out day.

As things progress, one thing that I will be doing is seeking to supply support for local events and groups. If you need basic audio support or simple lighting support, hit me up, I may be able to help for a reasonable fee. Also, I will be actively seeking and helping fill teaching and performance gigs. If you are an artist interested in any of the above, please send me a resume to keep on file and I will bear you in mind for any future opportunities.

I know that we all developed a love of the place... I want to once again remind everyone that it is the ideas that are the really important part. We will move forward from here. :)

Hello, dear Soulace friends. I hope you are all well today.

Today it is my sad duty to let everyone know that on July 31st, Soulace will close. We simply cannot keep pace with the rising cost of rent there. Even though 6 months ago we had made great strides and things were looking up, we are now once again stuggling, despite not actually losing ground on income. When I looked at resigning the lease for another 3 years, I was looking at 3 more years of scraping up every penny to make it work, and perhaps raising rates on everyone repeatedly. This would have taken us far away from our stated goal of being affordable to Nashville artists. On top of that, the landlord has assured me that we are underpaying at a rate of about 1/3 the cost per sq ft that they want the space to rent at... this means that at the end of three years, even if we manage to push through all the ways they keep coming up with to ask for more money, the rent is going to triple. We just can't logistically manage that in any world that I can imagine. I have checked this against local rates, and they are telling me the truth.

All events up through the end of July will proceed as scheduled, and operations will continue as normal. At the end of July, I will cancel all memberships and auto pay arrangements. If possible, if you have a membership, I would ask that you please let your membership continue until then, as we will still have bills to pay up until we close. If for some reason this does not work for you, I do understand, and you can contact me to arrange something else if needed.

To you all, I say: Thank you. This has been one heck of a journey, and I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to help you all create the wonderful things you all create. It is my intent to move forward with flow arts education, events, and my massage business from here. This is not the end of what we have started in Soulace, it is only the beginning. Take what we have done here out into the world. Make change, teach mutual respect and love for fellow artists, nurture those in need, create safe space for LGBTQ, women, and PoC. Inspire each other and cross pollinate your art with the art of others.

Above all, as Neil Gaiman would say, "make good art".

Peace.

I'll be out of town for the next 4 days. The studio will of course function as normal :). If there is an *emergency*, please contact Araña Aisling.

Love you all, later!

I would like to take this moment to remind you that Soulace has security cameras. In general, I do not review the footage unless something goes wrong. That said, I do absolutely keep track of the contents of the space. If something goes missing or is damaged, I do review said footage. I will be coming directly to the people responsible in all such cases. The contents of the studio are not for borrowing by members or their friends without *specifically requested and granted* permission by me, Fen, and only me.
