Exciting updates — coming soon!
Our promise to you this year: Yoga for the body, presence for the mind, peace for the soul. This is our promise to you as we hold hope, optimism, and light for new beginnings in 2021.
So with this, I’ll start with a few exciting updates — all of which are coming soon! I’m really excited about what lies ahead and I hope that they provide you with more opportunities to grow your own practice as well!
Thanksgiving week schedule (and a hello from Vermont!)
Happy Thanksgiving week to you and your families! Whether you are gathering for a small family dinner, hanging out Zoom with the family, or have another creative plan — I wish you much comfort, peace and joy.
Thanksgiving week schedule is within — along with a special event!
New week! Studio schedule + online classes.
It’s a new week! New start. Fresh perspective. New opportunity. My goal is to embrace this week with perseverance and have grace for whatever I can accomplish.
I hope the week ahead brings you a fresh start as well. Hope you can join us on the mat for a bit of self care — body, mind and soul.
Meditation returns to Yoga 170
I’m excited to let you know that we have added 2 new Meditation options for you — intended to bring awareness, reflection and peace to your practice.
Meditation is now available In-studio as part of our Tuesday’s Hatha Yoga class at 5:30pm (new time) and also Online as a short guided meditation. We will start with these 2 options and expand to more if everyone would like!
Hello November! Schedule this week.
“Keep peace in the mind. Strength in the body. And love in the heart.”
Your practice doesn’t expect you to show up happy. It doesn’t mind if you are put together or if you are a mess. You can arrive with a jumbled mind and a messy heart. Your practice could care less if you can touch your toes or meditate for hours. It simply understands that however you show up, you are present. And deserve to enjoy that moment.
Special event this week!
Lots of cozy candles, yummy scents and good energy are abundant at the studio to warm us all up!
Please know that when you are ready to return, our instructors take great care in making sure your experience is comfortable, enjoyable, and welcoming — it’s a great feeling of connection and community in each class.
Updates for this week include:
This week’s studio classes
All Access online classes
Details of our Special Event class with Molly
We look forward to practicing with you!
Cheers to Molly!
If you are a student of Molly’s, or are connected with her, you know that she has been planning on moving with her husband to the beautiful state of Vermont.
I’ve been very fortunate over the last few years to learn from Molly, work with her, and to be able to call her a close friend. I will truly miss Molly but I am happy that she is starting this new chapter for her and her family!
Let’s celebrate with Molly as her dream is now becoming a reality and she wanted to share the following with you.
The local news is visiting us this week!
Exciting news! On Tuesday morning, 13 WHAM News / Good Day Rochester will be visiting our studio — broadcasting live — with several interviews throughout the morning show! They will be profiling our efforts in continuing to bring yoga to our community during Covid 19.
They will also be spotlighting YOGA 170 On Demand and Butterfly Kids Yoga On Demand — and talking about how we are prepared to reopen safely once NYS gives the green light.

We continue to add to the variety of classes and are even customizing new online classes to your requests. Keep them coming — we are more than happy to deliver classes that YOU would like to see!
Angelina brings PiYo to Yoga 170 online
Please join me in welcoming Angelina Shimkus to Yoga 170!
