Summer summer summertime is officially here and I hope it's off to a great start for you and your family! This week, we have an abbreviated schedule due to the 4th of July holiday. I look forward to seeing everyone for regular classes & events next week. Don't forget to check the latest schedule!
Read MoreLast summer, we introduced "Yoga for You. Yoga for Your Kids", a chance for kids and parents to come to yoga together, but each take their own class. Parents in one room, kids right next door. And now, a year later, "Yoga for You. Yoga for Your Kids." is a regular Tuesday 6PM event, bringing parents and kids together with yoga.
This summer, I'm excited to once again team up with talented adult instructors from around our community. We've brought together a great team of teachers that are all here to offer YOU the chance to take a great class. Check out the summer line-up and see you on the mat!
Read MoreTime for a trip down memory lane! Think back to your field days. If you are like me, you immediately picture tug of war, potato sack runs, and relay races, right? But now, schools are becoming more progressive in the way they incorporate health, wellness, and fun into school programs -- and students are enjoying the benefits.
I was very honored and excited to be given the opportunity to bring Butterfly Kids Yoga to Field Days at one Fairport elementary school this past week. The chance to introduce yoga to hundreds of kids and give them all an opportunity to feel strong, find balance, reset, and find calm.
Read MoreThe official International Day of Yoga is coming up on Thursday, June 21st and we're kicking off the celebration a little early! In honor of an actual DAY dedicated to all-things-yoga, Butterfly Kids Yoga will be raffling Athleta gift cards to several lucky winners from now through the International Day of Yoga. Because other than actually going to yoga, shopping for new yoga gear is also a very legitimate way to celebrate :)

Read More"There is an uptick in demand for yoga-based sports performance training, especially for multi-sport kids, due to increasing injuries primarily caused by overuse, " says Dana Santas who is known for her conditioning work with professional teams like the Philadelphia Phillies, Tampa Bay Lightning hockey team, Atlanta Braves and Orlando Magic. And she says the age of athletes that start taking yoga classes keeps getting younger as they realize the benefits it offers.
So that is why I am so excited that our new Yoga for Athletes program at Next Level kicks off this week! One of the only programs like this for athletes in our area. Details enclosed…
Read More"Take a deep breath." We've all heard it, said it, or thought it, right? And for good reason. Our breath has SO much power to change the way we feel. It's pretty incredible. Proper breathing is a game changer to improve athletic performance, calm anxiety, and clear our minds. We start every Butterfly Kids Yoga class practicing breathwork and we always use what we learn throughout class. Here are 2 great techniques for you to try at home.
Read MoreAs an ode to all of the amazing moms out there, I wanted to share a very sweet moment from a class last week. To set the scene, we had been talking about how each of us has a "little light" inside of us (our hearts). I shared how our little lights make each of us special and how bright they shine...especially when we feel love.
