JFK, LaGuardia or Newark, Then the Train

We are based in Phoenix, so we fly in for this one too. New York is our fall date on the East Coast. If spring suits you better, the Washington, D.C. weekend runs May 21-23.

  • JFK. The AirTrain runs to Jamaica for the LIRR and the E, J and Z trains, or to Howard Beach for the A train.
  • LaGuardia. There is no rail link. The free Q70 LaGuardia Link bus drops you at the subway in Jackson Heights, or one stop later at Woodside for the LIRR.
  • Newark. NJ Transit and Amtrak both stop at the airport's rail station.
  • Pack for October. Highs in the 60s and cooler nights, so bring layers for the walk to and from the train.

Coming From Nearby States

Yoga teachers come in from New York State, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Here is the trip from each.

  • The Tri-State

    This is your home training. LIRR from Long Island, Metro-North from Westchester, and NJ Transit or PATH from Hoboken, Jersey City and North Jersey.

    Ride in each morning and sleep in your own bed.

  • Hudson Valley and Albany

    Beacon to Grand Central is a little over an hour on the Metro-North Hudson Line. Poughkeepsie takes 90 minutes to two hours.

    Amtrak from Albany-Rensselaer reaches Penn Station in about two and a half hours. The Hudson Valley leaves usually peak mid-October, so stay a day.

  • Connecticut

    Stamford and New Haven ride the Metro-North New Haven Line into Grand Central. From New Haven it is about an hour and a half.

    From Hartford, take the Hartford Line to New Haven and switch, or take one of the Amtrak Regional trains that run through from Hartford Union Station, about three and a half hours.

  • Massachusetts and Rhode Island

    Boston is about four hours on the Acela from South Station, Back Bay or Route 128, straight into Moynihan Train Hall.

    Providence is about three and a half hours on the Acela, closer to four on the Regional, which also stops at Kingston and Westerly.

  • Pennsylvania

    Philadelphia's 30th Street reaches Penn Station in 70 to 90 minutes on Amtrak. SEPTA's Trenton Line plus NJ Transit costs less on a joint ticket.

    Most weekday Keystone trains from Harrisburg and Lancaster keep going to New York. The daily Pennsylvanian runs from Pittsburgh through Greensburg, Latrobe, Johnstown and Altoona to Penn Station.

  • Western New York and Virginia

    Buffalo has nonstops to JFK, LaGuardia and Newark. Amtrak's Empire Service and Maple Leaf also run to Penn Station, a long day on the train.

    Richmond rides the Northeast Regional north, a little over six hours with no change. Spring works better? Try Washington, D.C.

Brittany Prince guiding a Breathwork class

Brittany Prince - LBW facilitator, owner of Awakened Prana

A Full Session to Lead After Savasana

Most yoga teachers already cue the breath. This weekend teaches you to lead a whole Breathwork session: open it, carry the room through the rounds and holds, and bring everyone back.

Add it to the end of a class, or pitch it to a studio as its own evening workshop. You lead real breathers in the room, and Ryan and Shelby give you notes right there.

Four lessons for leading a room of your own.

  • Opening a Session: Checklist & Intro
  • Phrases for Guiding a Session
  • Music & Playlists: Building the Energy Arc
  • Trauma-Informed Facilitation
