Important studio updates + recent moments

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share with you our important studio updates, even though I realize COVID mask policies for the kids at our studio hasn’t changed. I know several families participate in both Butterfly Kids Yoga and Yoga 170 classes, so because we offer yoga for all ages, here is the latest…

As you may be 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).

At the same time, for those who embraced being vaccinated as a way to end the pandemic, I fully hear the frustration and disappointment in the roller coaster of changing requirements.

However, this space is a studio that has two communities — Yoga 170 and Butterfly Kids Yoga. We are very grateful for all who practice at Yoga 170, for the kids of Butterfly Kids Yoga, and for the families that participate in both. Because we offer yoga to all ages (from 3 yrs old and up!), I need to consider all ages in order to satisfy the requirements set forth by the state.

And, perhaps most importantly, offer a safe studio space where everyone feels welcome.

Therefore, my only choice right now is to kindly ask that we all wear masks regardless of vaccination status, per the state guidelines, and because we are a studio for all ages.

Please know that I take very seriously the welcoming environment of our space and everyone here. I am very proud of the safety policies we have in place and I will continue to be vigilant in providing you with the very best.

Thank you so much for your support. ❤️

With much gratitude,
Ali
