Your yoga and wellness time —upcoming schedule
Whether you are practicing with us in-studio or virtually, that yoga glow awaits. ✨ Giving yourself grace, a place to reset, and time to recenter has gotten us all through the up’s and down’s of so much lately. You can view this week’s class schedule and all upcoming special events within (including new offerings!).
Vision board workshop and Sound Bath returns
We have two upcoming Saturday events that we’re really excited about. Be sure to check out the details within!
Winter weather policies + new February events
Hello Yoga 170 community! I hope you’ve enjoyed the warmth and coziness of the studio over the past few days. It sure is COLD out there…but lovely and warm in our classes.
New class + sharing our good vibes
New class alert! Join us on Thursday, 5:15-6:15pm for our new Vinyasa Flow class, beginning this week. This is not an intense class, but more of a gentle flow with Linda. You’ll enjoy a refreshing flow of poses, linking breath with movement, and a more grounded, centered feeling at the end of each class. Suitable for all levels, including beginners!
What’s new in 2022!
New year, fresh start! 🌱“Do not wait for the conditions to be perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect.” - Alan Cohen

Looking at the new year as a positive, fresh start? We are here for you to continue your yoga practice, or for new beginnings. View the full schedule here. And, be sure to reserve your spot in our special New Year’s events!
Schedule this week + Winter Solstice celebrations
We are beginning our Winter Solstice celebrations with candlelight yoga (and an abundance of cute twinkle ✨ lights) at the studio this week! We’re warm, cozy, and enjoying the ambiance of yoga together as we enter the official winter season. Plus, tonight’s Winter Solstice celebration included treats and tea for an extra coziness factor….
Important studio updates
As many of you are aware, NYS issued new requirements on COVID protocols for businesses, effective Monday, December 13.
After carefully reading over the policies, this is by no means an easy decision. I have never wanted to be in the position of excluding people for any reason who want to practice yoga. Nor have I ever wanted to be in the position where I am asking for our instructors to police policies set forth by the state. We have always been a community-oriented studio for all ages and my goal has always been to provide you with a space that is safe, welcoming, and supportive.
Basically, a place where I would take my own family (and actually do).
Only one spot left!
In this season of busy schedules and lots of to-do’s, be sure to carve out time to be good to yourself. It is never time wasted, I promise.
You can find our yoga + meditation schedule here and day-by-day below. There are also great special events coming up that you don’t want to miss. (Only ONE spot left in the 12/19 Candlelight Winter Solstice event.) Be sure to reserve your spot for all upcoming events!
