Dear Students, Namaste. Currently, all in-person classes are canceled. We want to offer you ways to navigate this new place and space we are all in through online classes that are easily accessible to you at home. ... We will be offering live classes for free and paid, to use with your existing class packages or to pay for individually. Also, we will have some pre-recorded classes available online soon! This can feel like a time of chaos. As many are forced to slow down and stay home, it gives us the opportunity to do more yoga, meditation and inner contemplation. All these tools help us to navigate the emotions and feelings that come with our current reality and find deeper center and groundedness. FOR MORE INFORMATION ON LIVE AND PRE-RECORDED ONLINE CLASSES, PLEASE EMAIL US AT OUR CONTACT US PAGE, SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER AT YAAYOGA.ORG OR VISIT US ON FACEBOOK FOR CLASS ANNOUNCEMENTS & INSTRUCTIONS. Love and Namaste, The teachers and Board of Directors #YAAYOGA.ORG #YogaInAmityvilleOnline #LiveYoga

So, way back about 16 years ago, I started my yoga journey with Yoga Anand Ashram in their old space, where I practiced for a few years. What a joy to take a c...lass in their beautiful new home with Roy, an old friend from my early days at YAA. I highly recommend his class, which is a beautiful medley of stretching, breathwork, asana & meditation. I can’t wait to take another class in this place where you know immediately that there is more to yoga then just poses. See more

Monthly Free Class Yoga & Meditation with Roy February 29th, 9:30 AM This Month in Class: Peace of Mind... Exploration of the myths and truths of meditation practice. In our class, each Saturday this month, along with our yoga postures and meditation practice, we will explore some of the myths surrounding meditation practice: Does the mind become peaceful? Or perhaps it is already at peace? Just what is this power that we call ‘mind’? Handouts will be given. All are welcome. The student came to the Bodhiharma, crying, My mind has no peace! I beg you, master, please pacify my mind! Bring your mind here and I will pacify it for you, replied Bodhidharma. I have searched for my mind, and I cannot take hold of it, said the student. Now your mind is pacified, said Bodhidharma. Zen Story #YogaInAmityville #MonthlyFreeClass #YogaAndMeditation #PeaceOfMind #FreeYouThere
