About The Weeping Willow and Castle Ironworks
The Weeping Willow is a home décor & gifts shop nestled in the heart of uptown Marion Iowa. We opened our doors in November of 2000. The shop originated in a small apartment space on the second floor of the same old historical building we currently occupy. We have since moved to a larger space on the street level.
The Weeping Willow is owned by Norma Peterman. We introduced OHM Studio Yoga in June 2009, and continued our growth by adding OHM Studio Massage and Whispering Stones in April of 2010.
Castle Ironworks has been an integral part of the Weeping Willow. Originally started by Norma's husband, Jeff, her son Frank now continues Jeff's work. Occasionally, you may be assisted by Nancy Bright (Norma's sister), who you will know by her great smile.

Hatha Yoga is a life changing yoga practice. As Christina Sell states in her book "Yoga From the Inside Out," yoga will direct you in a spiritual art of self-love and acceptance that can transform your self-image; that you are enough, just as you are.
