One of my favorite studios…read more I used to go to the weekly Saturday morning $5 community class - all the teachers were terrific. It was a huge help for me during my student years. I remember really enjoying Lisa's intros and teaching method, but really every teacher I had was helpful, deliberate and knowledgeable in their leading of the class.

I waited awhile to write this review, because I didn't want to be the only person in Pittsburgh who…read moredid not like this yoga studio. Well here goes. I purchased a pass for $35.00 for admission to three classes and only used it on one class and I will not be returning for any additional classes. At the start of the class the instructor asked the class what we would all like to work on. One attendee said "the core" I had read the class description several times online and had signed up for a class called "slow flow" which I took to mean more focus on stretching and slow deliberate movements...boy was I wrong. I felt that for a class called slow flow it was very challenging and I was more tense afterwards then I had been before. Personally I can see more advanced yogies having a great time and really enjoying themselves here, but for me as a beginner I felt totally out of the loop and even felt that I was snapped at for not telling the instructor I was a beginner. This yoga study does not have any showers...which for me as some who catches the bus made for a pretty uncomfortable bus ride home. The studio was very warm and cozy and Yoga Hive is a lovely facility even if it lacks showers. It's just not for me. I need more guided mediation and yoga for stress relief not to build abs. I am pretty sad, will I never be able to find a yoga studio to which I can belong? I have these two additional passes that I am certain have expired by now. I hope every one else enjoys their yoga though.

Om Energize gets the blood flowing and works you while grounding you. The class was taught in a step-by-step progression into the final product or move.

I arrived super early because I wasn't sure how finding parking would be, but I was able to find a spot walking distance from the studio. This is something to keep in mind when visiting because the only parking you can find near here is street parking. The location is easy to get to as its right above Spoon restaurant, you just have to dial in. I took a class with Kayla who was super friendly and experienced when it comes to yoga! She led an awesome class that was both challenging and meditative. I will definitely be coming here again!

He let me use their yoga mat free of charge and showed me where to put my things. It is very warm and cozy inside. The session went better than I expected. It was a great intro to yoga. I am considering coming here again. My only issue is parking. East liberty is very busy and street parking is sparse.

I had been coming to this studio for some years now and usually had a good experience. I planned to…read morego to a 9:30 AM class, but Pittsburgh road construction completely halted my normal route to the studio. I tried to call ahead of time (as I realized I would be late while driving) and nobody answered the phone number listed for the studio. Fine, I thought, I would just be a bit late and miss part of the class. I arrived at 9:40 and tried to open the door to the studio, but it was locked. Oh well -- I decided I'd stick around and talk to them in person afterwards to see if I could be honored coming to a different class in the future. After waiting an hour, I talked to the studio. I was told they got rid of their phone because nobody would answer it. They also did not explain their door locking policy (if I had known about it, I would not have bothered coming). Lastly, I was told they could not honor putting me in a different class because I had booked through class pass, but if I had a membership through the studio itself, they would be able to do that for me. This didn't make any sense to me. Finally, they told me I should purchase a membership, as if this whole experience would have inspired me to do such a thing. Since there are plenty of other studios in Pittsburgh, I'll save my money and go elsewhere.

I am honestly mixed on how I felt about Amazing Yoga. I did appreciate the challenge and loved the…read moretemperature. I do yoga 5-6 days a week, and this was challenging for me. This is not a beginners studio. There were not many modifications, and I would recommend knowing poses before you go. The facility is nice and very spacious. The instructor was great. The thing that will make me not return is the smell inside the studio itself. It smelled like a dirty locker room.. Musty, sweaty, and almost like urine. While I liked other things about the class I took, I just found that smell so off-putting.

Prior to discovering The Yoga Factory, my daily life was dominated by rigidity, chronic stress, and…read moreconstant physical tension. My mind raced with anxiety, my body ached from habitual tightness, and I felt unfulfilled and unhappy overall. After taking the plunge with a one-month trial membership, the transformation has been remarkable. In just three weeks, my anxiety has decreased by 70-80%, my thoughts are calmer and less racing, and--most importantly--my body has begun to release long-held tension, leaving me free from the persistent aches I once accepted as normal. I am deeply grateful to the kind and supportive staff at The Yoga Factory for fostering such a safe, encouraging environment--especially for someone navigating anxiety and body image concerns. This studio has truly transformed my mind, body, and overall well-being. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking positive change.

I left feeling full of light and energy! The class sizes are small (at least my class was) the instructor (Jonathan) was extremely patient and helpful. Overall, I loved the experience and I'm certainly willing to continue in the practice of yoga. The only problem (and its small) is that there really isn't a waiting area at this site. Therefore, you would need to exercise patience during your transition from entering and leaving class!

Apparently I am the only regular from the strip location to come over. Now that yoga is near by it's a hop and a skip away. I take easy yoga almost every Saturday when I get time but when I do get the time. It feels awesome!! Love this place and glad it's in East Liberty and that's coming from a guy from shadyside!

I signed up for a intro workshop and had a wonderful time meeting people and learning this new practice. Ashtanga is awesome because I finally understand why and how to properly do all the yoga poses I have done in other classes. They focus more on proper body alignment and working the right muscles rather than doing things too quickly and pushing too much. Don't get me wrong, you will still work your butt off! I have started taking Sue's Tuesday night prep class and it is wonderful and challenging!
