At Buffalo Firefly RVA, we want our community members to be able to prioritize self-care and wellness without cost being a barrier to entry. In order to increase accessibility for everyone, our classes, events, and services utilize a sliding scale pricing structure whenever possible.

Please note that for the first time since we opened on MacArthur Ave in January of 2022 our event prices will be modestly increasing in 2026 due to a hefty rent increase (details on pricing to come later and each updated price will be posted on the registration page). You are welcome to register for as many events as you wish on our 2026 calendar before the prices increase on 1/1/26. Remember events are non-refundable, but if you can't make it, you are welcome to have a friend come in your place). Many registrations are live through April!

Sliding scale pricing means that we are offering the same experience in a class, event, or session at multiple price points. Choose the price tier that best fits your financial needs at this time, based on your income level and circumstances. We trust our community members to self assess their need for financial assistance, but if you are unsure what price tier is appropriate for you, you can review the tiers below for reference.

Tier 1 (Full Price):

This tier represents the full price for the offering and the true compensation to the facilitator and space for their time and energy. If you are consistently able to meet your basic needs and have few financial worries, this price is for you.

Tier 2 (Community Rate):

This tier represents a moderately discounted price for the offering and is intended for those whose experiences are somewhere between the highest and lowest tiers. If you do not typically struggle to meet your basic needs but still feel that the full price would prevent you from attending, this price is for you.

Tier 3 (Accessible Rate):

This tier represents a significantly discounted price for the offering and is intended for those with serious financial barriers. If you struggle to meet basic needs such as housing, food, & health care and would be unable to attend at a higher rate, this price is for you.

NOTE: Once you reach the payment screen to register for an event, click "Package, gift, or coupon code" if using the Community or Accessible Rate. Copy/paste or type the appropriate code in the box and be sure to click "APPLY" before checking out. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.

In addition to our sliding scale pricing, we have established a donation access fund to extend financial aid to those who cannot afford the lowest price tier. If you would like to support the continuation of community financial assistance and contribute to our access fund, you can add on a donation to any appointment. Contact us to make a separate contribution.

If cost is still prohibitive at the lowest price tier, contact us to inquire about flexible payment options or assistance from the access fund. Note: BIPOC, LGBTQ+ and other historically marginalized communities are prioritized. We welcome all beings ready to experience wellness with open hearts and minds.
