A new Sunday morning class is coming this fall! 🍂

We’re so happy to share that beginning this weekend, Mary Yarmosky { } will be bringing even more of her warmth, wisdom, and light to our schedule with Gentle Yoga every Sunday at 9:15am! 🙏🏻

Mary has been an important part of the BYDF family for years, and we’re so grateful to have her on our teaching team and woven into our community. Many of you already know and love her from Wednesday Yin & Restore at 5:30pm (don’t worry ~ that’s continuing!), or perhaps you know Mary from her years as an educator, as mom to four beautiful quadruplet daughters, or through her family’s Yarmosky Pediatric Dentistry practice.

However you know her, here’s another chance to spend a little more time with this beautiful soul. ✨

A lifelong lover of movement and teacher at heart, Mary taught everything from aerobics and strength to spinning before finding her way more deeply into yoga and completing her yoga teacher training at Kripalu { }.

In Gentle Yoga, Mary creates a warm, supportive space to slow down, reconnect with your body, and move in a way that feels good for you. With a thoughtful focus on alignment and plenty of options, she encourages students to listen inward and honor what they need that day. Whether you’re brand new to yoga or have been practicing for years, you’ll be welcomed just as you are. 💫

NEW! Gentle Yoga with Mary
🗓️ Sundays
🕤 9:15 AM
📍 In-Studio | Online

We’re so grateful to have Mary expanding her teaching offerings this fall, and we know you’re going to love spending Sunday mornings with her. 🤍

✨ You wanted it, you got it… more Pilates is coming your way this fall!

We’ve heard how much you’re loving Pilates at BYDF, and we’re so excited to continue growing our Pilates programming with three new class times on our Fall Schedule!

🌿 Tuesdays • 10:30 AM with Tricia
🌿 Thursdays • 5:30 PM with Julie
🌿 Sundays • 4:15 PM with Evelyn

We’re especially excited to celebrate Julie (pictured here!) and Evelyn , who have both recently completed their Pilates certifications! 🎉

Julie has been part of the BYDF family since the very beginning, sharing her energy and talents through so many different classes over the years. Many of you already know and love her from Candlelight Yoga on Tuesdays at 6:45 PM, and we’re thrilled to now have her adding a weekly Pilates class to her schedule on Thursdays at 5:30 PM. 🫶

We’re equally excited for Evelyn to bring her own energy and teaching style to Sunday Pilates at 4:15 PM, right before her beloved Yin & Restore class at 5:30 PM!

And there’s another new face joining our Pilates team! 💫 We’re thrilled to welcome Tricia to BYDF this fall, leading Tuesday Pilates at 10:30 AM. Stay tuned ~ we’ll be introducing Tricia and sharing more about her very soon!

We also want to share a special thank you to Antoinette, who has played such an important role in growing our Pilates program and building the wonderful community around it. 🙏 You can still find her leading Strong & Grounded, our mindful strength training class, Wednesdays & Fridays at 4:15 PM through October, along with subbing classes throughout the next couple of months before heading off on her travels later this fall.

Whether Pilates is already a tried-and-true favorite or you’ve been waiting for the perfect opportunity to give it a try, there are now even more ways to strengthen, move, and feel great with us this fall.

Welcome Back, Elizabeth! 💫

Some of you may have already had the pleasure of practicing with Elizabeth Nelson on Sunday mornings this summer. Elizabeth returned to her 8:00 AM Mindful Flow class at the beginning of June, and we’re so happy to share that she’ll be continuing in this time slot throughout the rest of summer and into the fall!

Elizabeth’s thoughtful Vinyasa classes beautifully balance flowing movement with moments of stillness, helping students build strength, reconnect with their breath, and leave feeling more grounded, refreshed, and at ease.

Drawing inspiration from her work as a writer and artist, she brings creativity, compassion, and a deep appreciation for the mind-body connection into every class. Her welcoming teaching style invites students of all levels to find joy in movement, nourishment in breath, and a deeper connection to the present moment.

🗓️ Mindful Flow
🕗 Sundays | 8:00 AM
📍 In-Studio & Online

Whether you’ve already enjoyed practicing with Elizabeth this summer or have yet to experience her class, we’d love to welcome you on Sunday morning.

Please join us in giving Elizabeth a warm welcome back! 🤍

You can't control the weather... but you can choose how you show up. 💫

Outdoor yoga always comes with a little uncertainty. We watch the forecast, make our best call, and sometimes Mother Nature has other plans. 🌧️

This morning, we made it through almost the entire class at before the skies opened up. Within seconds, everyone jumped in to help cover equipment, move props, and laugh through the downpour.

Moments like these remind us that what we've built at BYDF is so much more than a yoga studio...It's a community of kind, flexible, generous people who know how to go with the flow ~ even when the flow turns into a summer rainstorm. 🤍

Thank you to everyone who embraced the adventure with us today. You made a rainy morning one to remember!!
