Solace

Overview

A calm, natural WordPress theme for the quiet end of wellness — yoga studios, spas, meditation and breathwork practices, and retreats. Its signature is a hero that breathes: a soft canvas aura that slowly expands and contracts on a human breath rhythm, paired with an interactive guided-breathing widget that leads visitors through a real box-breathing pause — in for four, hold, out for four — before they read another word. It is the rare piece of theme motion that exists to slow a visitor down rather than dazzle them.

Under the surface it is a complete studio site: Classes, Treatments and Teachers are real custom post types driving a weekly timetable grouped by day, a spa menu with categories and prices, and a practitioner directory with elegant typographic monograms. A discipline taxonomy, testimonials, a journal, and a nonce-protected AJAX booking enquiry (stored in a private inbox) round it out, with full page, search and 404 templates. Warm sand and off-white with sage, clay and honey; Instrument Serif over Figtree. Every animation is disabled under prefers-reduced-motion, and all content is built on portable, standard WordPress structures.
