Also it's a little bit cramped and gets a little bit busy in some regards but overall I like the place and they think it's a good gym - better than a lot of the ones in Queens and Brooklyn as well. Not as lavish and fancy as Manhattan but then you wouldn't expect to be. They've done a good job for Ridgewood and if they just had some great parking then I would probably give them five stars. Fairly new equipment across the board kind of like mine. I parked illegally for 3 hours and nothing happened to my car, but the fact that there was no legal parking (and I looked for a long time) is the only reason I can't give 5. One of the employees had a crush on me, and it was mutual. She gets 5, easy. I guess I'm easy, too.

I have been studying with Jared McCann for sometime now.

It's suited for all levels. Everyone at the studio is incredibly welcoming. Jared is a wonderful teacher and spiritual leader, and someone who truly does care for the practice and his students. They incorporate all different types of yoga into the classes. Jared and his other teachers have an incredible understanding and knowledge of these practices and are able to convey them seamlessly to their students. No matter what level you are at. I have taken other people to Jared's classes before that were very new to the practice, and they never felt intimidated or overwhelmed.

If you want to learn some real Yoga and how it may benefit the rest of your life off the mat, you…read morebetter come here and train with these exceptional teachers!! This authentic Yoga school is designed for serious people, those who value tradition, and the art of Yoga. Its not your pop-culture trending gimmick studio with their music blasting, glow-in-the-dark panty parties, salt crystals-infused candelabras, hippy essential oil burning, Hindu deities posters everywhere tacked on for legitimacy. Lighthouse Yoga is about teaching you real Yoga skills for life, and the studio master and proprietor, Jared McCann, is adamant and passionate in sharing with all his students, new and old, his incredibly effective Yoga method. If you come consistently, and train here, you will level up real quick, and I like progress :) I myself have over 12 years of consistent Yoga practice, and 7 years teaching, I have studied Yoga at top schools in NYC and Thailand, and after amassing a comprehensive outlook on many different Yoga systems the world over, I am highly recommending you try Jared's method, and that of his fellow teachers at Lighthouse! These are some of the most dedicated Yogis on the planet, and believe me, I have seen how they train Yoga in other countries and this place sets a high-bar standard no matter who you compare them to. Why wouldn't you want to practice with the best in the business, and set aim towards your own 'Highest Self' actualization, right? At least that's my rationale...... I came to practice at this studio 2 years ago, and come as often as I possibly can, even though I have to commute from Sheepshead Bay, BK, on a scooter for more than 40 minutes, and risk dying every time I do so, to me - its totally worth it! If I could get this high-end level instruction in authentic Yoga where I was located, I wouldn't travel so far, but, sometimes, good things are worth reaching for. As they wise saying goes, "Why not go out on the limb? Isn't that where the fruit is?" See you at Lighthouse, bring your own torch! Namaste Alex L

My first review got flagged for negative cultural references - Yelp doesn't make it clear which…read moreones so I'm reposting with my best guess at what was objectionable removed: This review is specifically for their sunset rooftop yoga class at The Local Hostel, this is the only class I've taken with them, and after an extremely stressful day I wanted to do some yoga in the sunshine, bought my $25 ticket online, and made my way over. The vibe was weird from the moment I stepped onto the roof. There was man sitting on the edge of the front desk with my yoga instructor and it wasn't clear if he was an employee of Cosmic or the hostel; he was smoking a blunt and kept talking about how chill the vibe was but didn't make me feel chill. It wasn't a real conversation, he kept telling me to relax, to look at all the people and see how relaxed they were, and every time I tried to speak he would talk over me with more stoned nonsense. I just wanted to check in, so I put my phone onto the table and made extended eye contact with the woman instructor. She asked for my name and email, which I did NOT want to give with this weird rando hovering close enough to touch me. I smiled and held up my phone, and she asked again. Great looking out. I reluctantly gave my info, took a yoga mat as far from anyone as possible, and got myself set up. I got up to use the bathroom, and the same man asked, "Leaving already?! Where you goin?!" To the bathroom dude, I'm going to empty my bladder, please leave me alone. The yoga area is separated from the lounge area for hostel guests, and during the class it became clear he wasn't an employee of Cosmic, but just a random dude who decided to insert himself into the class and the instructor wasn't able to control him. He was dancing in the lounge section by himself, periodically yelling things like, "Release the dragon!" It was annoying and out of place. The instructor started the class with "Well now that summer is almost over" and the audible grown from the people there facing another COVID winter with new mask and vaccine mandates was enough to make her backtrack and say, "We're at the height summer". Don't start a class with negativity like that. As for the yoga itself, the sound system they used had some feedback and quality issues, the roof isn't flat but has lumps and curves that make lying flat or balancing on one foot extremely challenging. The instructor seemed like she was still getting her sea (roof?) legs with her routine, direction, and confidence, which I don't mind, everyone starts somewhere and she was making an effort, that's what counts to me. What was less comfortable was encouraging people to video and photograph and tag the gym on social media during the class. On the one hand, this is how businesses get promoted. On the other, I don't want dudes getting up to take "promotional videos" of my downward dog that I didn't consent to. Also, can we please put the phones away for a YOGA CLASS, if no where else, and unplug during this time? Maybe the biggest disappointment besides the creeper was the fact that they didn't schedule their class to coordinate with the sunset, the surrounding buildings block it. We had 15 minutes of sun before it set behind the buildings and a chilly shadow descended on the roof. So.....this wasn't a sunset yoga class, this was a post-sunset/twilight yoga class. Not what I would have signed up for. I'm giving three stars only because this is not a review for the venue itself, they had to work with the hostel who didn't build their roof for yoga and who don't have control over what their guests do (if the dude was even a guest, I really don't know). But I really hated my experience.
