The yoga classes and studio at Hudson Valley Healing Center are the areas best kept secret and shouldn't be! I'd been looking for a yoga studio that was welcoming and not intimidating. I've had classes with Ami, Ellen and Sara and with each instructor I learn something new with each session. Ami helps her students understand the importance of proper body alignment in and out of class; as well as what controlling your breath can do not only during your practice, but in everyday life. Ellen encourages her students to try new things, She adapts the flow and pace as necessary (while breaking a sweat) and before you realize - it's Savasana. Sara's Aroma and Hatha classes are challenging and energizing! She's generous with her knowledge, explanations of poses and how they help the body. She emphasizes strength building and practice, practice, practice. Her enthusiasm and dedication for yoga is contagious. The aroma at the end of the class is a bonus too! Elisa has assembled an amazing team of Yogis - each class is different, the instructors welcoming, encouraging and incredibly knowledgeable and attentive to their students individual needs and abilities on all levels. There's also a lovely selection of yoga gear and essential oils along with other thoughtful gifts in the shop. read more

My experience at the salt cave was way above expectations; the entire healing arts center is pristine, yet cozy and welcoming. I have been to two sessions, one in which the gong was played in the room. During both experiences, it almost felt like time was warped; the ocean sounds and beautiful twinkling lights on the ceiling put you in a zen state very quickly, almost to the point where you forget time itself and feel like you're floating. I also noticed during both sessions pulsing feelings in me, almost electrical; the salt ions seem to be doing something for sure! I always have left the caves feeling in an extreme serene state, one that I only usually experience after long meditation sessions. I'd recommend the salt cave for anyone who needs to turn off their brains, an electronic detox, to discharge any negative ions (leading to many health benefits), or simply to relax in a incredibly unique environment. Thank you Hudson Valley Healing Center for bringing this beautiful facility to our area! read more

Amazing space, friendly staff, quality products and services... it does not get any better than this! Hudson Valley Healing Center has it all and something for everyone. Besides the extensive yoga class offerings, there is the Ashtanga Yoga Poughkeepsie ran by Samantha Lucas, numerous workshops and events (reiki, soundshealing, mindfulness), and of course the salt cave, which is truly something you have to experience for yourself, as words don't do it justice. So excited to have this place open up in the Hudson Valley, what a great place to start (or continue) your healing journey. Wellness and wellbeing never looked better, the center is big, spacious and has so much natural light! read more

What a fabulous experience. The salt cave... ahh so peaceful, the oxygen bar was so energizing, we did the light therapy and the chakra mat(like having a giant heating pad from neck to ankle). We were treated great and everything was explained to us. It is extremely clean and well set up. My highest recommendation goes to Hudson Valley Healing Center. read more
