Lilac Soul Yoga, a new boutique yoga studio that offers affordable, accessible and adaptable classes, is now open, in Lagrangeville. The studio caters to all body types, especially larger bodies and first-time students, as well as those recovering from injuries or illnesses. Daily classes of many styles and levels, as well as weekend workshops, mini-retreats and other events are offered. The studio provides affordable drop-in options and class cards.

“Classes include a blend of yoga, qigong, yogic dance and expression, self-acupressure, energy clearing and more,” says studio owner and teacher Toni Feimer, who has taught thousands of classes since 2001 and owned Prema Yoga Studio, in Pawling, from 2004 to 2008.

Lilac Soul Yoga strives to create a place for tranquility and vitality—where students practice in class individually, starting from where they are. Feimer explains, “Where we have been is in the past, which no longer exists, and where we are going can be framed by what we do in the present moment. Lilac Soul Yoga celebrates new beginnings, as each day is a chance to start fresh while letting go of that which no longer serves us.”
