"Meet Cori Martinez,  owner of Asha Urban Baths   and   Asha Yoga  in Sacramento. Cori is both gentle and wise. Cori is  wife,  mother,  teacher, and gifted story teller. Shortly after we met, I learned that Cori also possessed an impish sense of humor––which identified her as someone  I  immediately wanted to cozy up to.
​
Cori's businesses are growing The bathhouse at 2417 27th Street is expanding and the yoga studio has moved to 2910 Franklin Blvd.  

When Cori showed me her new yoga space, I couldn't help myself. "Wow, "I said,  "Sure could use some art  on them thar blank walls."

"What a great idea!"  Cori said. So , I invited her for a Studio Play-Date.

We decided that fiber would be our medium of choice:  it made us think of birds building nests and spiders crafting webs and safety nets and dreamcatchers. Then, like Penelope and Arachne, we went to work. 

Weaving, knitting, knotting, we created our tapestries. We liked that the pieces seemed to flow, like waterfalls, over the two great pieces of driftwood I'd tucked away in a corner of my studio––for over ten years––waiting for just the right project to appear. And now...

I'd suggest that Cori add "artist" to her  impressive list of accomplishments.
