More Dance Cardio is coming your way! 💃

Dance has always been a big part of BYDF - and this fall, we’re so excited to give you three opportunities each week to dance with us!

We’re welcoming Allison to Monday mornings, Rachael is returning to teaching dance on Tuesday nights, and Maddie is celebrating one year of bringing her sparkling energy to Thursday mornings! 🌟

Here’s your fall Dance Cardio lineup:

✨ Mondays at 10:30am | Allison
✨ Tuesdays at 5:30pm | Rachael
✨ Thursdays at 10:30am | Maddie

For Rachael, this return feels especially meaningful. Long before becoming a yoga teacher or opening BYDF, dance was her first love. She taught Zumba for years before stepping away from teaching dance after the pandemic and now, more than six years later, she’s ready to turn the music back up and dance with you again!

Allison brings more than 25 years of fitness teaching experience to the floor. Having grown up in her mother’s dance studio, she believes dance isn’t about getting every step right - it’s about showing up, moving your body, and leaving class feeling better than when you walked in.

And Maddie is celebrating her one-year anniversary with BYDF! 🎉 A movement instructor for more than 15 years, Maddie brings her signature sparkling energy to every class, weaving together fun choreography, carefully curated playlists, and inspiration from many different dance cultures. Her goal? To get you sweating, smiling, and sparkling inside and out. ✨

And there’s no better time to experience Dance Cardio for yourself ~ Fall Into Flow: Free Class Week starts TODAY!

Try Dance Cardio FREE this week:

📅 Monday, September 28th at 10:30am | Allison
📅 Tuesday, September 29th at 5:30pm | Rachael
📅 Thursday, October 1st at 10:30am | Allison (subbing for Maddie)

Try one or join us for all three! No dance experience is necessary - everyone is welcome, whether you’ve been dancing for years or are stepping onto the dance floor for the first time. ✨

Meet Allison ✨

Dance has been part of Allison’s life for as long as she can remember. Growing up in her mother’s dance studio, movement became a natural part of who she is—and eventually led to more than 25 years of experience teaching fitness, from cardio dance, cardio kickboxing and step aerobics to Pilates mat and equipment classes.

After taking a few years away from teaching, Allison realized just how much she missed it. Now, she’s back doing what she loves and bringing all that experience (and energy!) to BYDF with a NEW Monday morning Dance Cardio class!

📅 Mondays at 10:30am | Dance Cardio
📍 In-Studio

Allison wants her classes to be a place where you can simply show up for yourself, move, and have fun. You don’t need to get every step right, and it doesn’t matter what you look like doing it—it’s all about how you feel.

And there couldn’t be a better time to give her class a try! Join Allison this Monday during Fall Into Flow: Free Class Week and experience Dance Cardio for FREE! 🎉

Pre-registration required | Space is limited

🔗 Reserve your spot at https://berkshireyogadancefitness.com/events

When she’s not dancing, Allison is a math professor at Williams College, owns a real estate brokerage and renovation business with her partner Seth, loves traveling, and spending time with her 15-year-old son.

We’re so happy Allison found her way back to teaching—and into our BYDF community. Come dance with her Monday and help us give her a warm welcome! 🤍

Meet Ciana Marie, one of the newest members of our BYDF teaching team! 💫

A lifelong mover, Ciana spent 15 years as a dancer before finding yoga more than a decade ago. What began as a way to deepen her own practice eventually led her to complete her 200-hour yoga teacher certification at the Kripalu Center for Yoga—and to discover how much she loved teaching. She is currently continuing her studies toward her 500-hour certification at Kripalu.

Ciana’s teaching is intentional and thoughtfully paced, weaving together breath, movement, meditation, and pranayama to build strength, deepen self-awareness, and create space for compassionate self-inquiry. Inspired by the teachings of Swami Kripalu, she encourages students to approach their practice with curiosity rather than judgment—and promises there will always be plenty of movement and fun, too!

A Berkshire native who returned home after eight years in NYC, Ciana loves exploring local trails, cooking with local ingredients, curling up with a good book and spending time with her cat, Pixie. And she’s especially excited to become part of the BYDF community.

This fall, you can practice with Ciana in two weekly classes:

📅 Thursdays at 4:15pm | Mindful Flow
📅 Fridays at 5:30pm | Candlelight Yoga
📍 In-Studio & Online

And there’s no better time to meet Ciana than during Fall Into Flow: Free Class Week, September 27th–October 3rd, when you can experience both of her classes for FREE!

Pre-registration required | Space is limited

🔗 Register at berkshireyogadancefitness.com/events

We’re so happy to welcome Ciana to our team and can’t wait for you to get to know her, both on and off the mat. 🤍

More opportunities to Relax & Clear this fall. 💫

If you’ve experienced Relax & Clear with Nora Fenner { Embodied Vibes | Nora }, you know there’s something pretty special about giving yourself an hour to slow down, let go, and simply receive.

We’re so happy to share that this beloved BYDF class is expanding this fall! In addition to her Saturday 10:30 AM class, Nora will now be offering Relax & Clear every Thursday at 6:45 PM, both in-studio & online.

Relax & Clear combines gentle movement, deep rest, energy-clearing practices, and sound healing to help you release stress and reconnect with a greater sense of balance and ease.

You’ll begin with slow stretches and breath awareness to settle into your body before transitioning into deeper rest and a soothing sound journey with instruments such as rattles, drums, and bells. Nora’s lighthearted, grounded approach creates space to quiet the mind, soften the body, and leave feeling restored and at ease.

And if you’ve been curious about this class, Fall Into Flow: Free Class Week is the perfect opportunity to experience it for yourself!

Try Relax & Clear for FREE:

📅 Thursday, October 1st
🕡 6:45pm - 7:45pm

✨ Meet Tricia! ✨

We’re so happy to welcome Tricia Ladeinde to the BYDF teaching team! 🤍

A Balanced Body Certified Pilates Instructor, Tricia’s Pilates journey began more than 20 years ago. Her welcoming, supportive classes blend Pilates foundations with contemporary movement science, with a focus on alignment, breath, and mindful movement to help students build strength, move with intention, and feel more connected to their bodies.

For Tricia, Pilates is about so much more than exercise—it’s an opportunity to better understand your body, build confidence in your movement, and create strength that supports you both in and outside of the studio.

We’re excited for our community to get to know Tricia and experience her thoughtful approach to movement!

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
