I love Highland Yoga. The classes are usually the best in the area and they routinely have the highest quality instructors leading their classes. They are also competitively priced compared to other places in the area. read more

amazing classes and instructors. The room was heated to perfection. I will be purchasing a membership

Love Highland Yoga! The instructors are so intentional about making engaging and challenging routines while still allowing you to go at your own pace. The highland location is in a strip with parking in the back. The parking is a bit confusing as to when it's free or not, but I've always gone in Sunday's and I haven't had to pay(I think). The studio has free mats and provides a cool Towel after the session. You can be yoga gear, water, hair ties and more in the studio. New members can sign up for $30 for 30 days of unlimited classes. Highly recommend! read more

Highland Yoga - Yoga Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

This studio is amazing! Been coming since 2021 and over 500 classes and counting! Elsie is so knowledgeable and personable along with her team of experienced instructors! The range of classes offered is not just power yoga but also sculpt with weights, slow and steady, yin flow, deep warm stretch and prenatal. I have attended every class format! So fun and helps with my posture and flexibility! read more

I love this studio! It has become my go-to place when I need to decompress and reconnect with myself. All of the instructors are fabulous and bring their own unique perspective to each class. They are very welcoming, so don't be nervous if you're a first timer to Highland Yoga or yoga in general. Do yourself a favor and try Highland Yoga! read more

Update: While my first experience was an unpleasant one. I've been going to several of the classes and really enjoy them and I will continue to go. The experience I had was not with the instructor. The instructor is super nice! Very understanding! And provides a great workout while relaxing I would definitely recommend these yoga classes to any other friend. Thanks for such a great workout! read more

I personally didn't like the heat yoga aspect of the class - it would be nice if they offered regular yoga at a normal temperature. The instructor wasn't really showing the moves, but I guess I'm just used to a different teaching style where the instructor demonstrates the moves and floats around class to help adjust people if needed. Ally was the instructor in the class I took and she pretty much just stood by the doors in the class calling out the moves. The music was also loud so l couldn't always hear the instructor and I had to look at other people in the class to see what to do at times. I also looked at others because sometimes I could hear the move but I didn't know what a move was. The class description says all levels, but without the instructor going through the flow with the class I felt lost at times. I would try it again with another instructor, but only if they were to add non-hot yoga class. read more

Even though I'm probably the weakest and least flexible person in every class, I am still LOVING my highland yoga classes! I have been dealing with an Achilles injury for the last year from soccer and decided I needed a change in my workout routine. Highland Yoga has given me my mobility back and I can walk around again without hardly any pain! It has literally changed my quality of life. read more

Update: After writing this review, the owner reached out. The class extension issue was a misunderstanding and she made a sincere effort to make it right. That says a lot to me. She also explained they do offer a slow and steady class that sounds like a better fit for a beginner and "sweat levels" are shown on the website so you know how hard the class is. This is helpful to know.////// If you are a beginner, I can't recommend Highland Yoga. I consider myself a beginner, I've done yoga before but I'm still new to it. I signed up for a 30 day trial and went to a class at the Memorial drive and VAHI locations. I left with aching back pain the next day both times. The classes are rapid fire poses. It's like they are trying to force as many poses as possible into an hour without any attention to form in an overcrowded room of wall to wall clients. Definitely a quantity over quality approach. If you have experience this might be fine for you. It's terrible for a beginner, downright stressful. On a customer service note: I bought a 30 day pass, then got Covid during that period, so I did the right thing and didn't go for 10 days or so. I asked if they could extend my trial period considering the circumstances. They refused. They aren't obligated to extend, however that's a time when you are supposed to be winning over customers and that says a lot. They don't seem to need the business anyway judging by the crowded classes, and I wouldn't return even if they extended for the reasons above. However, I didn't feel valued as a potential customer. Bottom line: Not a good fit for beginners and not good customer service. read more

I highly recommend Highland Yoga! It's consistently a positive experience. Great teachers, studio, and atmosphere!

Love taking classes at this studio! Me and my friend love exploring new yoga classes and this particular studio will forever remain in the rotation as a go to spot for our hot yoga fix. The studio is very clean and more spacious than a lot of other heated studios I've been to in Atlanta. The instructors are all very friendly and the pace of the classes are good for all experience levels including the "I haven't been to yoga in 3 months and now I can barely touch my toes" group like we were. All of the classes I've taken so far, the instructors have been great at providing modifications and also alternate moves in the flow for the more experienced yogis. Also I LOVE the lavender soaked cooling towels at the end....I honestly look forward to the end for it...not just because I'm dying by the end. :-) The parking situation can be a little tricky if you're going for evening classes but I haven't had many issues with the morning classes. It would prob help to say I usually go to this studio on a weekend. It is also worth noting they (I'm sure the building owners) are implementing a paid parking system so it will no longer be free but the cost is not bad it was approx $5 for 1.5-2 hours. read more

I love this studio. I previously practiced yoga a few years ago and picked it back up recently. I started with the "new student unlimited month" package and converted to the unlimited student pass when my new student pass was up. For starters, the new student pass is a BARGAIN costing only $30 for a whole month. They also offer a 10% discount off the regular student pass if you sign up before your current month membership is up. As far as the actual studio, I love the instructors. They are all definitely different and have their own styles of instruction, but I have never left disappointed. The studio itself is always very clean, with plenty of cubby space, towels, blocks and mats (for those who need them) to go around. I always leave feeling like I got a great sweat in and very refreshed. If you live in the highland/midtown area, or are just visiting, I would 100% recommend!! read more

I booked a class through ClassPass which I attended and the instructor marked me as absent, which resulted in ClassPass automatically charging my a $20 late fee. When I called Highland Yoga to resolve the issue, the instructor Georgia said there was nothing she could do and told me send an email. Georgia was very unhelpful and seemed like she could careless, it honestly felt like I was on the phone with Comcast. I will say Highland Yoga offers some the most advanced and challenging classes in the Atlanta area which is great but there is a smug arrogant attitude that surrounds the studio. read more

Highland Yoga -- I leave your 6 am Power Vinyasa flow every weekday morning drenched in sweat, freed from life stresses, and refreshed (like I literally got born out of a lotus flower). And I don't know if my body, mind, and soul have ever felt so strong in my life. (Yassss.) Plus, I love how stacked my shoulders feel. Haha. Also, for $30 each person (for your first month), don't spend your money on an expensive meal when you can get your shawty an entire month of unlimited yoga at this price. What. A. Steal. (For all the brothers looking what to get their girl for V-Day.) Trustttt. From signing up for classes to the actual instruction, I'd consider Highland Yoga one of the best studios I've been to in Georgia. More about my experience: - You can manage your account on highland-yoga.com and then register for classes. Easy. - Kiley, Lindsay, and TJ all provide nurturing and clear instruction. Plus, the towel at the end with the essential oils -- love. - Their well-heated room and music creates this calming magic that I need more of in my life. - The parking situation, if you don't go in the morning, is a little chaotic, so take time to plan ahead! Sad I'll be leaving Atlanta soon, but I can't recommend Highland Yoga enough (especially if you live in the neighborhood). read more

So happy to have found highland yoga after living in places like LA and Miami and really loving my previous local studios. Instructors are amazing and so uplifting and you can practice in a way that's comfortable for you (I love that a couple locations are now vaxx only and others are open to all). Great job pivoting during the pandemic and always handling things with grace and kindness. read more

The OG location! Lately I've been hitting up their Decatur location, but I'll still drop in here on weekends for bigger community classes and the most senior teachers. They do really fun advanced classes on the weekend as well. read more

I was out-of-towner visiting my friend in Atlanta. Due to the ridiculously rainy weekend, and we found this studio had availability for the three of us last minute. We all got a one-class pass ($20, which includes free mat/towels) to a hot vinyasa class. We are all regular yoga-class people, so we were excited to try a different studio. We arrived a few minutes early to sign our waiver, and off we went into the classroom. There are plenty of cubicle spots for your shoes/jackets. The room is warm and has a nice ambiance. The only problem was the acoustics. I was unable to hear the teacher, Tracy (?) for some parts of the class. My friends also had problems too. I really enjoyed the class difficulty, but again, my only complaint was the sound. The music was also very loud/echo in the room. read more

HIGHLAND YOGA is great!! I started out with the new student special 1 month unlimited for $30, and was hooked. I drive 45-50min ish to practice yoga here. I love that there are many times available and multiple locations. I usually frequent Virginia Highland studio but have been to Memorial Drive location as well...both are wonderful. I have enjoyed the yoga teachers I've been able to practice with so far and look forward to trying out others. read more

Note: I gave the studio 4 stars instead of 5 because I can't honestly say it's as good as it gets (this was my first visit to a yoga studio and my first time doing yoga *hangs head in shame*) After e-stalking a few yogis on Instagram over the weekend, I decided I should work on being sexy flexy too. So I hopped on Yelp, and saw that Highland Yoga wasn't too far from me. Plus, they have an amazing 10 days of unlimited classes for $10 for newbies, so that sealed the deal. If I hated it, I could at least be glad that I didn't waste a ton of money and go back to lurking on Instagram. The staff was friendly when I entered the studio and told me not to worry about not getting all of the moves right at first. They assured me that despite the challenges, I would enjoy the class. The warm room concerned me at first, but I appreciated it soon after we got started. I had no idea what was going on most of the time, but I just followed the folks in front of me and played along. Apparently, that worked since the instructor didn't believe me when I said it was my first time doing yoga. I appreciate the fact that she took me aside after class to show me the correct poses for a few moves. That made me feel like she actually cared. And she also said she wanted to see me back at the studio for more classes. As hard as it was, I'm actually looking forward to going back. The studio itself was beautiful and clean. And there was plenty o' parking, which I was a bit worried about at first. Have I found my new workout obsession? Not sure, but I have found something I'm interested in. read more

Incredibly rude to my wife and me, just because we were having trouble with their clitchy website. Maybe also just biased against people from other countries. Turned away. Terrible and upsetting experience. read more

Excellent experiences every single time. I always leave feeling both exhausted and mindful. Great workouts, and none of the instructors distracts the class with new world spiritual commentary - I'm all for an "Om" at the end of class to seal our sense of mindful and community, but I'm not personally a fan of being told we're doing down dog because Mercury is in retrograde. They have mats (which are relatively well taken care of), towels, etc. if you need it, but most people bring their own gear. read more

I lived in Atlanta for 3.5 years and this was my home studio that inspired me to further my yoga practice and join an awesome community. I miss it so much but I'm so happy to hear about how they are doing what's best concerning public health by offering vaccinated classes as part of their scheduling. You're not only going to get a solid physical workout, but you're also going to feel a mental shift too. Forever my home studio, even though I now live in DC. read more

The absolute best hot yoga studio in Atlanta (and elsewhere, to be frank!) I have been practicing yoga on and off for years, but Highland Yoga truly helped me find a passion with the practice. Going to school in Atlanta, I needed a space to energize and relax all at the same time - HY was that space for me. The instructors are incredibly talented and are there to remind you that yoga is a unique journey for every one of us - as our bodies and minds are unique in their own right. They have a great first timer discount (30$/mo unlimited), mats to borrow, water fountains, and plenty of towels. Always kept clean and smelling great, compared to other sweaty smelling studios, plus they give you cold essential oil towels at the end of class. #namasteyall read more

Highland Yoga has become my home away from home. Highland yoga offers classes throughout the day to fit anyone's schedule, from early in the morning to evening classes. The wide variety of instructors provide guidance for students who are just beginning to practice or to those who desire to become instructors themselves. Currently all classes are a heated vinyasa flow in a 93 degree room. The practice room is used as a meditation space before class and during class it is a space for whatever the yogi is looking for in their practice. For myself it has become a safe space stripped of judgement and full of care. The studio provides yoga mats and a lovely cold compress at the end of each class. The studio is continuing to grow adding teachers, classes and eager yogis. What a great space in the VaHi neighborhood. read more

Highland Yoga - Taking pictures for a yoga challenge! - Yoga Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Teachers are super solid in their practice and give very clear directions. This is a class that just about anyone can follow along with and tons of poses that are accessible for all levels. read more

I'm really excited to find Highland Yoga. I moved back to Atlanta 6 months ago and had been bouncing around yoga studios searching for my "the one." I think this place is it. Its conveniently located in Virginia Highlands, has parking (praise), has classes all day long, has cold towels at the end of every class, and is hot but not too hot where I can't breathe. Of course, they also have great teachers. Most of the classes are a power vinyasa style which I love. A lot of the studios I have been to are largely focused on stretch, which is great... however, I need the movement. Plus, they have a cute studio dog. read more

I love this yoga place! The new students get $30 the first month and it's a very great deal! Although it's a bit far from where I live but I would love to drive to Virginia Highland for a good Saturday morning hot yoga sweat! I would love to keep working out with them! read more

NOT FOR BEGINNERS OR PEOPLE LOOKING FOR ACTUAL PRACTICE OF THE POSES. This is all "power yoga", a commercialized version of "yoga" which is basically a SUPER SUPER fast paced aerobic routine of Ashtanga yoga poses and Vibyasa chatarangas. I've tried 8 teachers so far and every one goes so fast with cueing the poses it is actually impossible to fully get into them, much less properly practice them. You're bound to injure yourself going this fast and unless you've already been practicing the asana poses in another setting before, there's no way you'd be hitting them with correct alignment. And then you'll have these white fitness teachers off-hand referencing Ginesh and it's just totally de contextualized from the yoga tradition plus is too fast to even really enjoy as a workout. read more

Not a great place for beginners! Classes say all levels and that's simply not true. Kind of discouraging for me.

I friggin' love this place! Before Highland, yoga was not my 'thing'. But this wonderful place challenges me physically and mentally every time I come. So happy to call this studio home. The coolest part about this place is every teacher is different and I get a different practice every time I take a class. All of the teachers are fabulous, including the newer teachers that graduate from HY teacher training. I've never had a class that wasn't satisfying - I keep coming back to Jenny's, Elsie's, TJ's, Lindsay's, and Tracy's classes. I also find it pretty dope that you can see many of the teachers attending the classes themselves. 80% of their classes are hot vinyasa or power yoga classes but I love that they're offer other classes as well (advanced vinyasa, yin, mediation, slow burn, etc.) to switch things up. They also offer periodic workshops you can sign up and pay extra for. It's hot yoga but not too hot - I can breathe here (important for yoga, eh?) compared with a few other studios that are too hot. read more

I moved to Atlanta just over a month ago and immediately after I found HY and signed up for their amazing new student special at $30/30 days of unlimited yoga. My 30 days are up today and I just signed up for one of their regular unlimited monthly packages. To be absolutely frank, I looked at other yoga studios just to try them before I committed to HY but nowhere else did I find a compelling new student deal, if at all. I have tried many instructors at this studio and they have all been amazing. I have my favorites but the good thing about having a variety of instructors at different class times is that you don't get tired of the practice which, although poses and style are very consistent through all instructors, varies depending on the preferences, energy, personality of each teacher. As for community, I do not find there is any, there might be people that know each other but that is all. This might also be due to the fact that I am absolutely new both to the studio and the city. However, in my experience doing yoga in other cities, this is quite the norm so I haven't felt a lack. Although I would love to have a sense of community at a yoga studio, I am willing to sacrifice it if other things important to me are present: an abundance of students (otherwise why practice at a studio), a heated room, good teachers, great music. In these respects, HY checks all the boxes. I don't know where the teachers get their music taste or whether they communicate with each other about this but all of their music regardless of the person teaching is really really good, in my opinion. Everyone has their preferences but in this case it works for me. I remember when I lived in Miami there was a yoga instructor I absolutely loved but could not stand her music, for the love of me! I could not stand it to the point I stopped going to her because of it; and unfortunately, this was not an isolated event. So, for me, I am very happy to have found a studio at my new home. My only concern is that perhaps I will grow bored of the same poses and style but we will see. I will update! A few notes: these classes are NOT for absolute beginners. Beginners with little experience such as knowing the basic poses by name will be able to practice here but not people who have never been to a yoga class in their lives. I am not an expert yogi, far from that, I am not even a yogi, but I have practiced for many years on and off and I sometimes struggle with classes. My favorite teachers so far are Inna Milko, Shannon Jackson, TJ Mangrum. I will nonetheless continue to alternate and try new ones, they have ALL been really really good. read more

I took a power yoga class with Katie and left feeling so refreshed but also like I'd accomplished real work. I can't wait to go back!

My new yoga home. Great space welcoming teachers :) The classes push you to be strong !

Pretty solid yoga choice of hot yoga is your jam. Love the teachers and routines- they have awesome and well developed routines that really feel like a solid workout. Sometimes the parking and class space can get pretty competitive. The popular classes (evenings) weren't my favorite. I wish they had some more variety. I got tired of continuous hot yoga. Would be perfect to buy class passes because I love hot yoga about three days a week. Overall a great experience. read more

Awesome yoga experience! Welcoming staff and talented instructors. Excellent heated vinyasa practice!

For years I tried to love yoga, but just couldn't... And then I went to Highland Yoga. The teachers, the vibe, the workout. Nothing comes close. My favorite workout in Atlanta. You'll leave sweaty and happy. Can't recommend enough. read more

While being a little familiar with yoga itself coming to this studio was my first heated practice experience. The studio and instructors are super inviting and while the power flow workout is a bit intense for a beginner it only pushes you to be better. With the heat making my stretches deeper along with the welcoming environment I am sold on hot yoga and highland VAHI. I also highly recommend their deep stretch class for recovery. read more

I just started practicing here and so far I'm hooked! I've only taken the power flow classes and they have been so good! I drive down from Gwinnett to take the classes here and it's been worth it every single time. read more

I really enjoy practicing at Highland Yoga. There's a variety of teachers and locations with their own unique flavor but the branding remains consistent. I appreciate the cleanliness of the studios! Free mats and towels if you need them. Classes all day long from 6 am to 7 pm. Various workshops offered to delve deeper into your practice. Courteous staff. I like the Grant Park location because it's two levels and the practice room is flooded with light. read more

I lived in California for 14 years and practiced yoga all over, from San Francisco to Topanga Canyon. Highland Yoga is BY FAR the best yoga studio I have ever found. The instructors are exceedingly knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. The facilities are CLEAN and well supplied with mats, blocks, blankets, and straps. But the best part is the overall vibe of the business. Yoga is wonderful, but sometimes yoga studios can be a bit ... you know ... yoga-ish (i.e. flakey and sort of a cluster*&$^). Highland Yoga has all the beautiful laid back vibes you want in a yoga studio while still having their act together as a business. Classes are well-scheduled. They start on time. You never show up and the class is cancelled. The studio respects your time and clearly appreciates your business. It's fantastic (and Mops, the studio puppy, is righteously awesome). I've been going three days a week (minimum) since May of 2015, and I have never had a negative experience. I look forward to my visits as a high point of my week. There is a great community vibe to the studio as well, as I've met some lovely friends there. If you love yoga for yoga's sake and want to support a non-corporate, local business run by some wonderful folks, Highland Yoga is your spot. read more
