Spotlight | Form and Flow Yoga

Welcome to Broadway Stages’ Spotlight, where we feature local shops, restaurants, organizations, individuals, and venues. We encourage our readers to join us in supporting these establishments and advancing local economic growth. The beginning of every new year is a wonderful opportunity to develop your mind, body, and spirit. This month, we will share places and opportunities for you to do just that. This week, we are sharing Form + Flow Yoga in Queens.

As we mark the passing of 2023 and welcome 2024, it is natural to consider how we will do things differently and the goals we hope to fulfill. With this, Broadway Stages recommends you focus your efforts internally. A great place to start this journey is at Form + Flow Yoga. As they say on their website, “Yoga is the journey of the self, to the self, through the self.”

Established in 2019 in the Dutch Kills neighborhood of Queens, Form +Flow is a yoga community for mindful living. The sense of community is fostered by creating a safe space to share and providing guidance from karma-conscious educators. 

They offer various approaches to yoga, including Vinyasa, Hatha, Restorative, and more. The instructors guide the classes in syncing body and breath to create a moving meditation that strengthens and stretches your body and mind. 

As their approach is holistic, they are always looking to empower their customers with more ways to find mindful peace. To do so, they collaborate with conscious leaders to blend Eastern Buddhism and Western philosophy, crafting a mesmerizing tapestry of yoga, meditation, healing, and rejuvenation. Each class is meticulously curated in a space to foster harmony and align the three intelligences: heart, mind, and body. You can find a schedule and information about scheduling a class here

They also offer workshops to explore the three intelligences. One such workshop focuses on Reiki. This holistic practice is rooted in Japanese tradition and ignites your body’s natural healing abilities. You can also opt for Sound Meditation. This practice involves aligning your vibration with the sounds around you to restore your equilibrium, relieve stress, and build a foundation of inner peace. On January 7, you can combine these two modalities with Reiki Master and sound healer Jo-Ann Suriel. 

There is also a Cacao Ceremony and a workshop on Breathwork. The Cacao Ceremony uses ancient cacao plants harvested by the Women’s Collective Farm in Guatemala to quiet the mind, focus on your intention, and manifest what your heart seeks while deepening your yoga practice. The Breathwork workshop aims to bring healing and mindfulness by bringing awareness to our breath.

Setting is as essential as mindset when pursuing healing and mindfulness. To create an inclusive community where every form has a safe place to flow, Form + Flow supports local and emerging artists in the growing community of Long Island City. They invite artists to share their space for art displays/exhibitions. They encourage you to stop by to view their current exhibition.

Form + Flow is such a dynamic force for growth and healing that it is hard to keep up with everything they do. If you want to see what the future holds, you can follow their Instagram and Facebook pages. 

Form + Flow has grand intentions, and they are successfully achieving them. As one customer says, “Beautiful, bright, and cozy space with a diverse group of experienced yoga instructors... Definitely a great addition to the neighborhood, and they’re looking to promote emerging artists!”

Broadway Stages is excited for a bright, happy, healthy new year. One strong step toward that goal would be through the front door of Form +Flow Yoga. And when you make that step, be sure to tell them Broadway Stage sent you!
