I've been to many yoga studios, especially for living in New York City, but it's rare to come across a studio so personal and intimate. They really made me feel right at home. My instructor, Emily, was kind and warm. She effortlessly directed a yin and yang class with such serenity and grace. Both my body and soul felt rejuvenated. I'm very eager to come back again to this studio. They have a first time free class promotion, so be sure to check it out!

This was my first time at this studio and taking aerial yoga. I'm picky about where and what kind of yoga Especially when spending $27 on a drop in class.

In October I enrolled in the Yoga Teacher Training program which was sponsored by TBY Yoga and The Yoga Effect. Julia Jonson, Andrew Gurvey, Sally Gill and Anna Ottolino are authentic and have a deep understanding of this ancient practice. I am grateful for the knowledge that I have gained from Julia and Sally's teaching. Their techniques capture the yoga philosophy and presence of movement that calms my mind and I appreciate the positive atmosphere they create. I know as I continue on this path my yoga teaching will keep strengthening my mind, body and self awareness. Having practiced in both studios, I can say with confidence that they each have a welcoming and supportive atmosphere that is adaptable to all levels. The instructors are excellent and they make you feel like you are the most important student in class. Their clients' wellbeing is at the center of everything they do. After completion of the program, I feel fully prepared to teach effective and meaningful yoga classes.

I have been taking Agnes classes for 2 years ( took a break while pregnant ) and started back up a month post partum. In the beginner class, you can take it easy as you need if you're starting out and gradually add more to challenging yourself. She changes up her flow and class every week, so you are consistently working different areas of the body. I took yoga classes at random and used to feel it a slow boring waste of time more or less a relaxing class that does "stretching". I love to lift and do intense endurance cardio. It wasn't until going here consistently that I was blown away with the fitness aspect of yoga- the strength/flexibility/core stability/etc. involved. You will be challenged more than you possibly think and I promise the health benefits, both mentally and physically, will surprise you! I highly recommend Melt and the classes here. Side note: The owner rocks.

There are lots of men that come here so if you are next to one, prepare to get his sweat on you. It's a decent place but most of the instructors play the most God awful music. I attend their power yoga classes and instead of upbeat music (POWER) I hear country music and folky type music. It's way too mellow (and downright annoying) to match the amount of exertion needed to complete the class. I'll keep going here though because there are no other true hot yoga studios for miles.
