We came. We networked. We Namaste’d.
The 2019 Mind, Body + Super Soul event, a private health and wellness mixer hosted by WAGS Redefined, took place just 15 minutes from Mercedes Benz Stadium (home of the Atlanta Falcons/Atlanta United) where the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams would face off the following day for Super Bowl 53. The purpose of the event was to: connect women in the WAGS community (wives and significant others of professional athletes/coaches), empower them through movement, and inspire conversations around total wellness and self love.

Yoga instructor Kymmi Cordovez and sports performance trainer Chelcie Scott lead the WAGS in a Hustle + Flow workout, which began with meditation and yoga, followed by strength training and cardio exercises.
“I really wanted to host an event focused on the women...free of the fluff, filters, and facades. I feel like women in our community, and in general, struggle with self care and even self love. The goal of Mind, Body + Super Soul was to have fun, connect with like-minded women, and channel good energy.”
The event was complimentary to WAGS Redefined members with a donation to Sporty Girls Inc., a nonprofit organization whose mission is to cultivate, enrich and challenge young, minority women to participate in swimming, soccer, tennis, golf, and lacrosse while developing and fostering lifestyle & academic skills. Sporty Girls was founded in 2006 by multimedia personality and former collegiate swimmer, Rashan Ali.

“Mind, Body + Super Soul was an amazing intimate event. All of the ladies in attendance, both the WAGS and the vendors, were super sweet and there were good vibes all around. I loved getting to meet some new inspiring women in a laid-back setting. One of my favorite parts of the event was when we did our mindfulness activity. It was so nice to take some time for mindfulness and self-love in the midst of the hustle & bustle of Super Bowl weekend. It was also super empowering to hear other WAGS share what came up for them during the activity. I can’t wait for the next WAGS Redefined event!” ”
The afternoon event opened with dialogue about mental health and societal norms. Instructor Kymmi Cordovez encouraged WAGS to be open and share what they were really feeling in that moment, beyond the typical “I’m good.” Following a guided meditation, the ladies reflected for a second time, writing down any new thoughts. Several WAGS shared what they wrote following the meditation, speaking more freely about challenges, setbacks, and self love. The meditation circle was a real #Sisterhood moment!
