We officially closed the studio at the end of last month, and we're all off on our own adventures. Thank you all so much for your support along the way. We loved our little studio space, and it was made alive by your presence over the years. We know that all the joy & peace we shared there lives on. It was so worth the time & energy we put into it, and we're forever grateful!

AND...we're still here to offer you the practice of yoga that can be so helpful & healing. You can find our individual contact info below.Ā If you're interested in following along with each of us, we'd love to have you! āœØšŸ¤āœØ

Moving through the pandemic, which shut down our physical studio in March 2020, has been like moving through a new world without much solid ground to stand on. We recognize that we've all been asked to be adaptable and flexible at almost every turn, and it's been quite a trip for everyone! It's felt especially rocky for us seeing as we made so many new changes at the beginning of 2020 and thought we were embarking on a new adventure as Now: Yoga & Movement...and it truly has been an adventure! As much as we've been trying to make things work without the anchor of a physical studio, we've realized that it's time to close this chapter and move forward.Ā 

We'll continue to function as a "studio" through the end of 2021, so you'll have plenty of time to use any remaining credits in your account.Ā We'll be closing out our books on December 31, 2021, so please use your credits before then.Ā We have plenty of options for you to do so: virtual classes Monday through Sunday, outdoor classes at I-Square through the month of September, and some in-person classes at Assisi Yoga, hopefully through the end of 2021.Ā 

We'll keep everyone up to date on our in-person & virtual offerings through the fall & winter, and we'll continue to remind you all of our closing date so you can purchase any new passes judiciously.Ā 

This is in no way goodbye; most of us will continue to teach classes and workshops around Rochester (and virtually!). Erin, Heidi, & Kasia are also available for private yoga sessions. We'll look forward to seeing you in classes through the end of the year, and in the future! We are so grateful for your support, and we thank you all for being part of our lives for the last (almost) five years!

Love,

Amanda, Erin, Heidi, & Kasia

ā€œFundamental richness is available in each moment. The key is to relax: relax to a cloud in the sky, relax to a tiny bird with gray wings, relax to the sound of the telephone ringing. We can see the simplicity in things as they are. We can smell things, taste things, feel emotions, and have memories. When we are able to be there without saying, ā€˜I certainly agree with this,’ or ā€˜I definitely don't agree with that,’ but just be here very directly, then we find fundamental richness everywhere. It is not ours or theirs but is available always to everyone. In raindrops, in blood drops, in heartache and delight, this wealth is the nature of everything. It is like the sun in that it shines on everyone without discrimination. It is like a mirror in that it is willing to reflect anything without accepting or rejecting.ā€

What do you notice when you slow down? What do you notice when you look up? When was the last time you looked up? Or down? Or at something that might fade into the background of the everyday?

ā€œPeople usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child—our own two eyes. All is a miracle.ā€

Now: Yoga & Movement

Located next to the iconic House of Guitars at 657 Titus Avenue in Irondequoit, Now: Yoga & Movement is a yoga studio built for all ages and all bodies. Yoga & a wide range of movement modalities are offered for people of all abilities.

Our goal: to make yoga inclusive and accessible for all.

Each of us hear often from friends, family members, and others we meet in the community: ā€œoh, I’d love to try yoga, but I’ve never done it beforeā€. Or we’ll hear ā€œbut I can’t touch my toes!ā€ or ā€œI don’t think I could do thatā€. We see each of these sentiments as an invitation. Haven’t tried yoga before? Come join a basics class! Do you have a difficult time getting up and down from the floor? Try chair yoga. Want to practice with your little ones? Attend a family yoga class! We truly have something for everyone.

Now: Yoga & Movement is owned by Amanda Gorman, Kasia Pelepko, and Erin Wafer.
