Yogafreak Will Keep 'Tree Poses' Planted At Rye Ridge Shopping Center
A Rye mom had a dream of opening her own yoga studio after teaching for 20 years. That dream became Yogafreak and it's here to stay.

RYE BROOK, NY — A local business that celebrates the practice of movement will be staying put for the near future.
Rye Ridge Shopping Center, Plaza and South just announced that Yogafreak, which first opened its doors in 2016, has signed a long-term lease extension. The retail center has built something of a growing reputation as a destination for businesses dedicated to health and wellness.
Yogafreak is described as the "quintessential small business" run by local mom Frannie Rochet (and sometimes her daughters). Rochet had a dream to open her own yoga studio after teaching for 20 years. She has successfully nurtured and cultivated her studio into a devoted thriving practice.

"Yogafreak is here to stay," Rochet said of the new commitment. "We are an inviting and inspiring hot yoga & HIIT studio. We are excited to announce that we just renewed a long-term lease in our same location [Rye Ridge Shopping Center] woo-hoo! A big shout out to all our hot yogis and hiiters, we are looking forward to many more years of freakin’ fun together!"
In 1998, while working as a fixed income trader in London, a friend introduced Rochet to the practice of yoga. She was immediately drawn to its physical and psychological health benefits. As Rochet continued to work and raise her young family, she says that she found hot yoga offered a much appreciated sense of balance and well-being. Her passion for the unique practice led her to train as an instructor in 2006.
