YOGA HAS A HOME IN HOLYOKE

Co-directors Aaron and Debra Vega are combining their love of yoga, movement and dance with their mission of bringing "yoga for the people” to their studio in Holyoke.

VegaYoga & Movement Arts

At VegaYoga & Movement Arts, we offer a variety of yoga, dance, movement and meditation classes for any age group and any skill level. In addition, we offer a wide range of workshops and community events.  Beginning with children age 3 and on up to senior adults, we have classes for the beginner on up to the experienced practitioner. We offer children’s yoga/creative movement classes with simultaneous adult classes, enabling parents and children to “practice together”.  In addition to evening and weekend classes, we have our mid-day stretch classes if you just need a break from work and the area’s only weekly classes in Spanish!

Basked in sunlight during the day and wonderfully lit in the evening, VEGAYOGA & MOVEMENT ARTS is not just a yoga studio, but a destination to practice.
