Liz Snyder

Liz Snyder, E-RYT 500 hr, is a co-owner of HOME power yoga Cranford & Summit in New Jersey, founder of Project HOME Power Yoga, a 501(c)(3) organization, and a lululemon ambassador. She is a 1,200 Hour Tier 3 Baptiste Certified Teacher, and is about to lead her seventh teacher training at HOME power yoga!

She graduated from Franklin and Marshall College in 2013 as a Business and Psychology major, captain of the Women's Basketball, and administrative assistant for the Men's Lacrosse Team. Although first introduced to yoga in high school by her mother, she started doing yoga really consistently her freshman year to support her sports career & busy school-work schedule. The first summer out of college, she did her first Baptiste Yoga training and fell in love with teaching.

She completed Baron Baptiste's level 1, level 2, & level 3 week-long trainings, as well as Art of Assisting and Advanced Art of Assisting. She graduated from the Baptiste Fit to Lead year-long training program held in Utah, a training that is designed to teach teachers how to lead Baptiste inspired trainings & is led by Baron Baptiste. She assisted Baptiste week-long trainings led by both Paige Elenson & Baron Baptiste. She also taught and trained at the only Baptiste affiliate in NYC, Lyons Den Power Yoga.

She is passionate about service and the effort to make yoga accessible for all people. In March 2016, she traveled to Kenya, where she volunteered to assist a Baptiste teacher training to benefit Africa Yoga Project. Africa Yoga Project (AYP) is a non-profit organization dedicated to training yoga teachers in Africa to teach free yoga classes throughout the country. She has raised and personally donated thousands of dollars to AYP, and spent over a year with them, mentoring a yoga teacher from Sierra Leone. It was this experience that sparked her first non-profit, Project HOME Power Yoga, which she founded in 2020.

She teaches a challenging and accessible power flow, focused on increasing strength, flexibility, and possibility. Her mission is to use yoga as a vehicle to serve people & the world.

A Message to our Summit HOME Family:

We are writing to share some bittersweet news with you about our Summit location. Unbeknownst to us, a large construction project next door has been in the works for quite some time and we only just found out that the project will not allow us to operate and run classes.

With the extremely short notice we’ve had, we've worked extensively to see if it was possible to change or work with the presented circumstances. We met with our landlords, the landlord on the project, as well as the involved construction company. It was agreed upon by all that due to the nature and noise of the construction and its proximity to our studio, it would make it very challenging to deliver our yoga classes for 4-6 months at the minimum and at the maximum for over a year. Furthermore, we weren't provided any solutions that would allow us to make the situation workable, even temporarily.

Additionally, we have had multiple conversations with the Zoning Officer, Director of Downtown, and Mayor of Downtown Summit. While all have been sympathetic, we're told there isn’t anything that can be done to salvage our studio at 463 Springfield Ave.

We are absolutely heartbroken by the circumstances and in having to inform you that our current Summit studio will close, starting on Monday, February 19th.

With that said, we believe that all hardship is an opportunity to grow and we are extremely excited for what is to come next. We are already working on creating a new space for you in Downtown Summit - bigger, and better than before. We are aiming to re-open in the next three months, and will keep you posted every step of the way.

Taking care of you and this community has always been, and will continue to be, the most important thing to us. That is why we designed the following options for our Summit-only members (those who take all or almost all of their classes at the Summit location) during the interim period when our studio closes and the new studio opens:

Thank you for all of your understanding and unconditional support. It’s because of you all that we are going to rebuild and come back better than ever. Please come see us before we close & come celebrate with us when we reopen.

Looking forward to all good things to come.

Love,
Liz & Katie
