I've been meaning to attend a class at Soulage ever since I heard about their opening. I finally…read morehad the perfect excuse thanks to the Yelp 410 Deal. I attended the Movement and Meditation class on Friday at 11am (as part of the deal) and got entry for just $4.10! I managed to find street parking right out front during this time. The entrance to the studio is tucked away in a little alley. When you walk in, you're warmly greeted by the colorful wallpaper, patterned tiled floor, and comfy lounge area. This building is very historical and looks to have been an old bible study building. You wouldn't think this would make for a good yoga studio but the high ceilings and large windows are just perfection! Elizabeth (owner and teacher) led the movement and meditation class expertly. It was a great class for centering myself and giving my body a rest since I mainly do vinyasa yoga and weight lifting. This particular class was super slow, gentle, and incorporated some releasing postures I had never tried before. I highly recommend paying a visit to Soulage! Your body and mind will thank you.

Che Yoga with instructor Dea is the best yoga experience I've ever had. Her classes include…read morestudents from the ages of 18 or 19 all the way up to the 60s-70s. I take the Neo-Soul class that is mellow/chill. Dea takes her time, watches the students to see what their limitations are and works within those parameters. Some students are more flexible, others are better with balance. She deals w/ each of us one-on-one and as a group to keep us moving, stretching, and getting us to use muscles that hadn't been used much (for some of us). When I walked into the class, I couldn't balance on one leg at all. I'd fall over. Now, I can stand on one foot, I can touch my toes, I have become more flexible. I give my highest recommendation to the Che Yoga Mobile studio. Dea is personable and extremely kind and fair. She makes everyone feel welcome.

Heather and Justin foster a community in which you receive individualized attention and assistance while benefitting from practicing with a room filled with kind and supportive students at all levels of yoga practice. Heather and Justin work with each of us based on our goals and needs and understand that this can change from day to day! They are incredibly knowledgeable and work with modifications as needed to accommodate injuries, fears, or mood! It is a remarkable place and I hope you come by and see for yourself!

Teachers Heather and Justin are very knowledgeable and precise but not dogmatic, and will challenge you while respecting your boundaries. Whether you are completely new to yoga, a longtime practitioner, or modifying for injury, they will meet you where you are. The great thing about Mysore-style Ashtanga is that students of all levels can practice together at their own pace and receive individualized instruction. I highly recommend BYS to anyone who wants to deepen their yoga practice!

Now that I've been a member here for a little over 4 months, I wanted to update my review! First of…read moreall, everyone here is so friendly. From the instructors to fellow members, the atmosphere is just so welcoming and non-judgemental. Becoming a regular and being greeted by name seriously makes my week! My favorite instructors and classes are the following: C2 with Leah - you can tell she puts so much intention behind her flows. She often starts with a brief excerpt at the beginning of class and I'm not sure if she finds them somewhere or writes them herself, but they are always concise and meaningful and her voice is SO soothing. I love her careful and supportive assists throughout class. C2 and yoga sculpt with Payton - her classes are always challenging but in a good way. I feel stronger and more energized afterwards. She gives you time to play and try out more advanced poses. We recently tried flying splits which I would've never attempted on my own! Yoga sculpt with Eliya - Eliya's playlists are always on point! Her classes are challenging and fun. I always get such a great sweat in and I love her vibe. I look forward to her 4:30pm Friday sculpt all week! C2 with Eleanor - Eleanor does a great job queuing poses and helping you make adjustments without even needing to do hands-on assists. Her flows are often really creative and fun. I'm also a big fan of the CSX classes but just don't find as much time in my schedule to give them a go. Kira and Hayden are both great CSX teachers! Beyond the classes and the people, I can confidently say I've seen a transformation in both my practice and my body. I've gotten stronger, more balanced, and grounded as a result. I'm able to do poses and expressions that I used to struggle with and my chaturanga is the strongest it's ever been!

I did a trial, some drop ins and eventually the 5 class pack…read more I'm quite experienced with challenging flow/vinyasa/Rocket and I've now attended around 9 C2 classes between 4 studios in Maryland and California. In particular, Anita's C2 at The Rotunda is a very good class. She brings the right balance, especially versus other CorePower classes I've taken, between the meditative aspects of yoga, the teaching and pushing the exercise. She gives good cues and options for arm balances and inversions, which I enjoy. I've found, in general, that CorePower's C2 will be an uncertain experience with regard to its challenge level, so Anita is a reliable teacher in this way. It is 4 and not 5 stars because of what I stated above: there are not as many challenges as I prefer. I see C2 as being a little closer to a beginner level class than intermediate. I have heard that C3 is good, but it is very hard to find. More C3 please?

I've gone to Yoga Union several times since discovering them a few weeks ago. They offer classes at…read moreconvenient times and for reasonable prices! I think it's $17 for the average class, but they also offer $6 community classes that fill up so get there early! They also offer all of their classes by live stream for a lower cost if you prefer to practice at home! (They also offer membership and class pass options; I'm thinking of getting a class pack since it's a considerable savings!) I've only taken a class with one instructor so far (Billy J.), but I've loved his class so much, I'd love to try more instructors and more classes in the future. (I highly recommend Billy's hatha class; he and the class are approachable but the class is challenging and fun!) The building can be hard to find the first time but it's become part of why I love Yoga Union. It's in a small building tucked behind the light rail track and the new brewery in Woodberry. The only strange thing is that you have to cross the tracks to get to it. Pay attention to your GPS the first time, and you'll be fine! The building is pretty old - and it's sort of hot yoga by default (it warms up fast) - but not crazy hot or intentionally hot. You can hear the light rail trains go by which I find weirdly calming, too! The studio is just one room, with a check in area and a bathroom. The check in staff are very friendly. The classes I've taken have not been very crowded (unless a community class), and there has been room to spread out. It's easy to book and pay for classes online, too! I've enjoyed my experiences at Yoga Union, and I plan to keep practicing here regularly! Check it out!
