The trainers really take the time to come round to everyone and make sure they're doing the moves right. I purchased their 6 class introductory special and I've taken 2 yoga classes and a TRX 101 class so far. I'm looking forward to taking my other three classes and I'll probably buy their summer package afterward. I really appreciate how the trainers take time to talk to you afterward if you have any questions, they're not just looking to teach their class and get out like I've seen at most big gyms. The TRX classes can't be bigger than 8 people and the yoga classes can't be bigger than 12. Like I said, it's really personal and you get the attention you need if you're having problems with a move. You really get your money's worth.

If you want to learn Ashtanga, this is a great place to learn…read more I was first introduced to Yoga in 2005. I practiced vinyasa yoga at Satsang Yoga Studio in Westfield and really enjoyed going there. I stopped practicing yoga for a few years and exercised at the gym and at home. Unfortunately it was hard to stay motivated at home and the gym became expensive and uninviting for me. (Not a big fan of workout machines and people who grunt/slam weights down.) I always had a love for yoga and after a recommendation from my cousin, I signed myself up for the Intro. series in September of 2014. Ashtanga comprises of a series of poses done in order linked together by breath. Classes here are "Mysore Style", you do your practice at your own pace while a teacher assists you if necessary. I learned a lot from the Intro. series and was eager to begin learning more of the Primary series. When I first started, I was kind of nervous about practicing on my own; I'd always followed the instruction of a teacher! But after several weeks, I gained more confidence and got used to self practice. Just like with anything, it takes time, patience, and a lot of breathing to progress in your practice. Sometimes I forget a pose (oops!) especially if my mind is on wandering mode, but I just try to focus and get it right next time. I am very happy with my yoga practice and am thankful for Alissa and Sonya for being great teachers.

Nice straight forward ashtanga yoga place in a neighborhood in highland park…read more We escaped the big city and stopped here for a morning Mysore class. It was good there were only 8 people I think so Alissa , the teacher had time to assist everybody. I like hands on assist and in certain poses she asked me if I would like to be assisted, that's great too, I don't want anybody to grab and twist just out of the blue. Before our drop in, that was 17$ ( good price), she asked aswell if we had any injuries. The studio is one room and they keep the temperature nice. It was kind of odd that a few people started doing 2 nd series that didn't seem to have primary completed, but that's probably only because my teachers don't encourage that. I m for sure happy that we found this place and gladly return when I m in the area!

Most group yoga classes that I've been before were competitive and fast-paced. Working with Monica was so different, she really encourages you to develop a sense of what feels right, and to go at our own pace. Monica taught us the right way to do many basic poses. Do yourself a favor. Go to Polka yoga studio and treat yourself to a yoga session. You won't regret it.

I always come out of the class feeling so much more opened, energized and renewed! She keeps her class small so that she can give individual attention to each and everyone and provide required guidance , help and correction in our poses. I also appreciate how she begins the class by asking if anyone needs help in any area and works towards it. She is sure to warm us up in the beginning of class and cool us down as well. I love when she comes over and basically give me a little mini compression massage while we are stretching at the end! Monica is very knowledgeable about yoga, yoga nidra, meditation and alternative healing techniques ! She is very friendly , cheerful and truly wants to share the benefits of her practices with us. I highly recommend to try yoga with Monica!

Angela has spent time in India and her practice shows it. She uses both the Sanskrit and English names for the poses which I've grown to enjoy. She has awesome musical choices too which I put a high value on. I've also taken classes with Sal, who has a different style than Angela for sure. I've never left his class without laughing. He has a way of not letting you take yoga too seriously. He also has a love of 80's music which I couldn't take from anyone else, but it's great paired with him. I've taken Jess's Yin class too which is super for a relaxed vibe. I encourage everyone to give PYS a shot and perhaps expand your practice in a way that you might not expect.

As serious practitioners and life long yogis we wanted a training and a community that understood the deeper values inherent in the yoga practice while maintaining a down-to-earth and approachable attitude. Angela embodies that perfectly. She has also attracted a community that embraces the authenticity and knowledge promoting a safe space of deep growth. Her fellow teachers are of the highest echelon while maintaining a humility and inclusivity that are paramount in developing deeper growth with the students. The ease and proficiency with which Angela and her fellows executed this online training was remarkable. I highly recommend any training or perhaps the online yoga classes with Prana Yoga Shala. It will be your new home no matter where in the world you are.

I originally purchased the 5 classes. I really liked the first class and asked if I could upgrade to the 10 classes. I was able to do this with no problem, which was quite refreshing. The studio is small, but has everything you need including the hot yoga option, lockers, mats, bathrooms, a shower, steam area, private massage room, and reception area with seating. There is also a refrigerator with water bottles I suppose are for purchase, which is good to know if you forget your water. The studio room is rather small. I've never seen the accordion doors shut, which is a good thing, because the room is small as it is...but there is the option for 2 events to go on at once. There is a pleasant smell throughout the studio, to my relief. It is a well taken care of studio aside for the bathrooms which could use some improvements. Overall though, I really like the vibe of the studio...smells nice...dimly lit...nice hardwood floor...mirrors. There are several classes offered 7 days a week, although a few more added to each day's offerings would be nice. I also like that there are some free seminars offered, as well as some special holiday events (additional fee, but nice to have that option). Teachers are great! I especially like the hot yoga class-an added luxury was at the end when the instructor sprayed a calming spray near us if we so chose...helped calm the mind. Receptionists are helpful and responsive, even to emails. I was impressed and will continue to practice here.
