Riverside Yoga

Riverside Yoga is coming back June 1st with new teachers, new and varied styles to choose from, and the same beautiful location at the Niawanda River Bandshell. As a result of popular demand, we will be adding a weekly guided meditation as well. Schedule and teacher info to come soon! Stay tuned and be well!

Exciting News! Riverside Yoga is beginning classes again in the next few months! For those who are unaware, Riverside Yoga is a seasonal, outdoor venue that offers yoga and wellness practice for a nominal donation. All classes and workshops are held at the Niawanda River bandshell in Tonawanda, New York.... Last year's Riverside experience was such a success! We came together as a community to share peace, movement, laughter, stories, and positive connection with each other as well as nature. It continues to be a humbling inspiration to see love come together when the space is provided! We're looking to grow our influence this year and expand our services to guided meditation, varied yoga classes such as "Power Yoga" and "Gentle Yoga", along with offering some exciting workshops such as "Learn How to Handstand" and "Plant-Based Nutrition". Riverside Yoga is donation based which allows new teachers and local businesses the opportunity to give you a high quality service at a cost much below the industry standard. All around, Riverside Yoga is something to be really jazzed about- and with all the exciting new offerings, we're more excited than ever! Please share and tag others! The more people we have attending, the more exciting events we can bring to the venue! Namaste :)

What if meeting up with old friends over the holidays meant partaking in community call to action and dancing the night away? Check out Intune Festival taking place at Buffalo Iron Works on December 23rd. Help raise awareness of addition in our hometown and be apart of the change forward!

Hello lovely yogis, Message about classes: Each teacher apart of our project provides indoor classes at studios across Buffalo and surrounding townships. Please feel free to contact each teacher individually about opportunities to grow your practice, for events and opportunities for classes indoors, and anything else you feel you'd like to reach out for. Currently, classes at our outdoor location at the North Tonawanda band shell have been coming to a close in order to welc...ome in the new season. Changes and updates will be posted here for your convenience and each instructor remains able to connect with you, to be at your service to connect at any time. **Note about Hannah's classes: Hannah teaches two classes Tuesday evenings (6:00-7:15, 7:30-8:45) at Rising Sun Yoga studio. Contact Hannah on Facebook for further inquiries, or see the Rising Sun Yoga Studio website: http://www.risingsunyoga.com/ Much love and peace to each of you.

Rain and cold, great mix for a home practice. No class with Hannah this week. Riverside yoga is undergoing some big changes, stay tuned for more information!

A perfect follow-up for the "Mindfulness" focus in Hannah Hamilton's classes this week. Try taking something from class to enrich your at-home practice: use this to support the transition. Jai!

Hello everyone, due to the wet conditions Sunset Yoga with Rachel will be cancelled this evening! Hope to see you next week!

Here it is! Try this very short practice this morning (maybe then, every morning) and put a little bit of intention to the day, move with more awareness- more insight.

7:30 yoga with Hannah is cancelled this morning, rain and wind prevents safe travels to the bandshell! However, stay tuned for a gratitude practice you can complete while still rolling around in bed.

http://www.yogajournal.com//4-reasons-science-suggests-pr/ FLASH BENEFITS OF PRACTICING OUTSIDE: 1.) Spending Time In Nature Can Replenish Energy 2.) Natural Scenery Can Heighten Awareness... 3.) Practicing Yoga In A New Environment Can Build Confidence 4.) The Outdoors Can Further Boost Meditation's Benefits Personally, I can attest to experiencing all four of the benefits that Yoga Journal outlines in this article. For our yogis who enjoy an outdoor practice, have you felt any/all of these benefits?

For those that attended my classes for the past week, this is was the inspiration and focus for the classes. The practice I created was meant to stir your mind and shift your focus. You have a voice. The ability you have to let your truth out is invaluable. YOUR TRUTH, is the point I wish to make. Often it is easier to fill space without saying anything- it can be easier to say what you believe will placate others, will please them. What pleases you? Say what is truly real for who you truly are. Find who you are beyond the image you present to the world, speak to that image. Be kind, be gentle to yourself and others. Words have such power: realize this power and set yourself free. Namaste, Hannah

Hello yogis, I'd like to hear some feedback (especially from the regular attendees) concerning a schedule change. Instead of the Wednesday morning class being 7:30-8:30, would a change to 7:00-8:00 be just as accessible? Comment with opinions or message me personally. Much thanks!
