Popular Inwood Yoga Studio Shuttering After 8 Years

INWOOD, NY — The Bread and Yoga studio in Inwood is closing down after an eight-year run in the neighborhood.

The popular yoga studio at 5000 Broadway, near W. 212th Street, is shutting down its indoor space after it wasn't able to negotiate a new lease with the building's landlord. Ownership of Bread and Yoga will turn their keys in on Sept. 30.

"We've lived through so many changes already in the past few months. Though it's been hard and so many have experienced much loss, we also living through a historic time that holds with it unknowable possibility," Bread and Yoga wrote on its Facebook page. "Possibility for change and for deeply listening to how we are being called in to show up to these times. It is from this place of possibility that I've come to the difficult decision to let go out or Inwood studio space."

While Bread and Yoga is closing its studio space, it doesn't mean that classes won't still be offered online. The yoga studio is actually upping its virtual class offerings, which you can find on the Bread and Yoga website.

Additionally, Bread and Yoga is keeping its indoor studio in Harlem, but they aren't close to returning to the temporarily closed space, according to the owners.

Bread and Yoga is also hosting an "Open House Gathering" via Zoom on Sept. 30 to go over any questions people might have about the operation moving forward.

Owners of the soon to be shuttered Indoor studio space ended their closing announcement on Facebook with a plea to support local small businesses.

"In the meantime I ask that you continue to support small businesses in your neighborhood. Not just us, but all the family run places that make a neighborhood feel like home."
