A new year brings fresh energy, new friends, and the perfect chance to nurture your well-being. This January, Yoga for Life with Michelle welcomes you into a slow-flow practice designed to warm the body, calm the mind, and help you step into the new year, or perhaps into a new year’s resolution, feeling grounded and renewed.

Whether you’re brand new to yoga or returning to your mat after some time away, these sessions are designed to welcome you exactly as you are. No experience needed — just bring an open heart, an open mind, and a willingness to move with intention.

Dates:

• Saturday, January 17
• Saturday, January 24
• Saturday, January 31

Time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Location: Freeville United Methodist Church

Cost:

• $10 per class
• or $25 for all three sessions

Please plan to arrive a few minutes early to sign in and settle into your space.

No fancy gear required — just comfortable clothing and a willingness to explore movement with curiosity. Whether you join for one class or all three, you’ll be welcomed with warmth.

Start your year with intention, connection, and a little more ease!

As we welcome a fresh year full of possibility, the Village extends heartfelt thanks for your continued support, trust, and partnership. Our community thrives because of the care, involvement, and neighborly spirit each of you bring to it!

As always, your voice matters. Residents are encouraged to share questions, ideas, and concerns during privilege of the floor portions of monthly Board of Trustees meeting which occur the first Tuesday of every month at 7:00PM in Village Hall. We ask that you notify the clerk at clerk@freevilleny.org if you plan to attend for privilege of the floor so we know to expect you, but this is not mandatory. Your participation guides the decisions that shape our village’s future.

With winter continuing to give us it’s worst, we also want to remind everyone to take advantage of our house call service. If you or someone you know could benefit from such a visit, please don’t hesitate to reach out! We’re here to help ensure everyone stays safe and supported.

If you’re looking for more ways to get involved with your local government or want more information about Village proceedings, please feel free to ask questions and continue to monitor the Village website and blog.

Thank you again for being such an engaged and caring community. Wishing you a healthy, joyful, and hopeful New Year!

If you’ve been meaning to add a little more movement, calm, or balance into your week, here’s a reminder that Freeville has a weekly yoga class open to all residents.Yoga for Life meets at the Freeville Methodist Church and offers a welcoming, judgement-free space to stretch, breathe, and move at your own pace. This class has been a part of our community for several years, and it continues to be a steady, accessible option for anyone looking to support their physical and mental well-being close to home.

Yoga for Life focuses on mindful movement designed to improve mobility, strength, and balance. The class is suitable for all experience levels and participants are encouraged to listen to their bodies and move in ways that feel right for them. Yoga can help reduce stress, improve posture and circulation, improve physical and mental health, while also giving residents a chance to slow down in the middle of a busy week to reconnect with yourself and community.

Feel free to visit Yoga for Life with Michelle on Facebook for more information. Class schedules are posted there and classes are offered once a week at the Methodist Church. Punch cards are offered to purchase multiple classes, but come try out your first class for free ($10 fee for FUMC may apply)! No pre-registration is required, just arrive a few minutes early!

Michelle hopes to see some more faces of Freeville at Yoga for Life classes in the coming weeks!
