Upcoming Events
Restorative Yoga
Restorative yoga helps provide physical and mental balance to prevent stress and anxiety. Using props to allow you to hold poses longer, this practice gives you benefits of deep, passive stretching. A restorative yoga sequence typically involves only five or six poses, supported by props that allow you to completely relax and rest. Held for 5 minutes or more, restorative poses include light twists, seated forward folds, and gentle backbends.
Join Allison on Wednesday 10/24 at 6:30 to beat the hump day slump and take a break from this busy season. Limited spots available. Plan to bring 2 blankets to help in total relaxation.

Benefits of Mid Day Yoga
Did you know we now offer mid day yoga? Join us Thursdays at noon for a 45-minute Hatha class. Take advantage of your lunch break to stretch, reset, and breathe. Here are our top five reasons to spend your noon hour with Allison at Hatha:
1-Beat the afternoon slump by refocusing your mind and increasing your mental clarity
2- Time from your co-workers might be a good thing. We have a positive space with like-minded people, free from distraction.
3- Connect your mind and body, while working up a bit of a sweat. A lunchtime workout is a perfect way to expel energy.
4- Stop worrying about trying to fit in your practice early in the morning or late at night. Join us mid-day when you need the break!
5- Yoga may help avoid mid day snack cravings. After a boost of energy from lunch time down dogs you won't miss your 3:00 sweet treat.

Meet Geneva Walter
Most of my family would probably describe me as a wandering soul. Since graduating high school, I’ve moved 19 times. Along the way, I’ve also taken 5 cross-country road trips and multiple vacations to new cities. Needless to say, I love to travel.
While living in Hawaii, I fell in love with the way yoga helped me connect my body, mind, and emotions. It wasn’t long before I became certified to teach from
Hawaii Yoga Institute
in May 2015. I’ve been teaching and continuing my yoga studies in Minnesota for the last three years and am currently finishing my 500 YTT at
Devanadi School of Yoga and Wellness.
In addition to teaching yoga, my other hobbies include kayaking, paddle boarding, golf, fitness classes, rock climbing, painting, reading, and exploring the world with my dog, Dozer. If there’s any go-to for calming me down or making me feel better, it’s spending time with my pup.
I am thrilled to lead aerial yoga on Tuesday evenings at The Fire Within Yoga in Buffalo. Aerial Stretch at 5:30, is for yogis looking for the extra benefit of using silks to stretch and relax the body. We use the silks as a prop to sink deeper into postures. Aerial Vinyasa at 6:15 focuses on learning how to invert, fly, and flow, using the sling to focus on alignment, build strength in the body, improve flexibility, and link breath to movement. Both classes are appropriate for first time aerial students, as well as those who want to continue to learn or refine their basic aerial practice.
No prior experience needed for these classes. Reserve your spot
online
today!
