This is one…read moreof the first yoga classes I have been to in a long time that was both rejuvenating mentally and challenging physically. I took an intermediate class and felt appropriately challenged and went through many new poses which I enjoyed. My instructor was awesome, she gave us different modifications for difficult poses and allowed us time to practice balance postures on our own. Edge Yoga is a small no frills studio with great classes which was exactly what I was looking for in a yoga studio.

Come to Edge. I took a yoga course in college and loved it, but something like ten years passed…read morebefore I picked up my practice again, and that started with a walk-in at Edge Yoga. Last summer I moved to NYC. Before that time I spent almost six years in Arlington studying with Mark and his team for 500-1000 total hours. He is a very experienced teacher, and the most studied and wise yoga expert I have met so far on the East Coast, bar none. Be advised that Mark does not teach pranayama (breath work) or meditation in his classroom, but this isn't because he would dismiss their benefits. When you practice with Mark, you're there to work, to build endurance, and become (I can't think of a better way to say it) incredibly super strong. In addition to having some years of active vinyasa practice under your belt, I recommend that you start to build a pranayama and meditation practice before coming to his classes, so that when you do come to explore the physical practice, you can do so with more focus, and someday get into postures you might only be able to dream of today. Mark is an all-around fitness guru; he gives great assists and adjustments in yoga, and is a savant when it comes to observing the body and training its movement. His cues are verbally advanced, but over time you'll realize that they contain all of the practically useful knowledge you need to cultivate a really badass practice. Rebecca is funny, brilliant and absolutely amazing with beginners. You'll love her style and her presence. I know I did. Nikki's classes were always my favorites. She does teach pranayama, and so beautifully. And every single week she brings a new sequence. Just an incredibly bright, creative and supportive teacher, and an expert on transitions and inversions. All of the staff bring something great to Edge. I totally recommend it to travelers in NoVa who have an active practice and are looking for great weekend morning offerings. To any locals who haven't tried it, get there!

If it wasn't for the welcoming atmosphere and convenient location of Woodley Park Yoga, I don't know if I would've kept up my practice. As a newbie to yoga, I take the beginner class on Saturdays at 11am and the guided quarter primary class on Tuesdays at 7pm, both taught by Elsie. She has a calming voice, goes over the poses for new folks, and encourages you through the more difficult poses. The beginner class is easier if you've at least tried yoga at another studio or at home with YouTube videos. Be prepared to sweat a little! The studio is sizeable and allows 13-15 people max depending on the class. You can store your yoga mat in the back room, and there are wipes for your mat. I don't usually see blocks or towels readily available, but ask if you need them. The studio is on the third floor of a four-story building in Woodley Park, above Uni Sushi (no elevator). There's a small bathroom in the back of the studio. If I can think of only one downside, it's not being able to pay for classes online in advance, even though you can reserve your spot online. You need to go to the studio and purchase classes directly with the teacher, which takes time before/after class if you're waiting for others to pay too. Better to just buy a pack of 5, 10, or 20 classes if you plan to come back regularly. Checking in relies a bit on the honor system: you write your name on a card and the number of classes, then cross each number off when you show up to class. Whether your a seasoned yogi or a newbie like me, I highly recommend dropping in Woodley Park Yoga for a class!

Haven't had the chance to try it. I booked a class online. Yet when I arrive they don't answer the…read moredoor. I've called no one answers the phone. I feel they should either update their hours or update their website to let people know if they are actually open or not. I got my refund, but still a waste of time I could've gone somewhere else. I'm so upset because I feel like as a business they should be able to communicate.

SCAM!!! DO NOT SIGN UP!!…read more This place is such a scam. My roommate and I signed up for a membership and ended up not enjoying the coaching. It was very new-agey and some people like that, but we wanted to focus more of the fitness aspect and the coaches seemed largely unconcerned with correcting form, mixing up the flows, etc. Seems like they just use it as a platform to pretend to be all-knowing, not for me. We emailed and asked if we could cancel and they said yes. I'd not signed anything that said I was locked in for a year. They did the usual sorry to see you go/is there anything we can do, but ultimately they ended up canceling my membership. I stopped going. The next month they charged me. So I went in and asked about it, and the woman told me it was a mistake, she was super apologetic and said they're refund me that money and make sure it's cancelled. It's been SIX MONTHS and they are still charging me. I've called and emailed multiple times, I've had my credit card company refute all the charges, and they're still doing it. The last time I caller them the person who answered hung up on me when I gave my name. I urge you not to sign up here unless you want a Don't Worry Darling situation where you end up staying there for life. A horrible business. Horrible customer service. For a product that's over-priced, and not even good at what it claims to be. Wish I could give a 0.

I made two of my girlfriends come with me and we signed up for the Vinayasa on Wednesday at 6:30PM. As i entered the studio i felt a welcome from the guy at the front desk. The lounge area is inviting and also clean. I had to fill up some paper work since i was a first time student. The yoga instructor was Karen, she was welcoming and told us to get some mats, blocks, and blankets. The class was what i expected from a Vinayasa class as it focuses on slow movement and deep stretching. At the end of the class during the Savasana , karen walked around and gave some lavender oil as its calming and help to slow down and relax during the meditation period.
