Heartspace is the BEST! I had ZERO yoga experience, but was very interested in starting a practice…read more I reached out to Heartspace after several of my coworkers recommended it, and Andrew, the owner, directed me to a 6 week beginners series that was just about to start. I was really nervous to walk into a regular yoga class with absolutely no experience so this was perfect for me! I LOVED the beginner series; Rebecca, the instructor, did a beautiful job teaching proper form and all of the basic poses one should know in order to feel confident walking into any yoga class. She is incredibly knowledgeable about ALL aspects of yoga and can offer you any modifications that you may need. I was so impressed with Rebecca and this series that I did a second round of it! Now, I attend Rebecca's regular Saturday morning flow class and can't say enough good things about it! Yoga has done so many great things for me both physically and mentally in the short time I've been practicing, and I have Heartspace and Rebecca to thank for that! Heartpsace is full of caring and competent people who create a supportive and engaging environment for personal practice and growth. I will continue to be a regular here and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a studio.

I'm not into hot yoga so much but tried their yin and vinyasa options. The yin classes are very chill and one included a guy playing instruments and even singing. My favorite vinyasa was the Saturday community class which was high energy and good vibes. Studio is very clean and the stone floors are so refreshing when it's hot out. They have some cute merch like hats and shirts. Ample lot parking. Would definitely come back here especially for the Saturday community class.

How am I the first person to review The Yoga Loft? I barely do yoga…read more That said, I started coming to this studio a couple of months ago, and since then have attended several classes. So while I may not have a good feel for the breadth of this studio's offerings, I certainly have enough experience with the place to share some thoughts. Quick story. For the past few years I've been having some trouble with my back. Nothing serious. Just muscle strain. But my wife was tired of hearing me complain about it, and I was tired of complaining too. Our collective thought was that the stretching and core strengthening of yoga might be just the thing I needed. But I had never done yoga before. And my flexibility was abysmal. Forget about touching my toes, I can barely touch my knees. So my wife found a few local studios that had a gentle yoga class. The Yoga Loft was one of them. And it just so happens that not only did the class fit well into my calendar, this studio just happens to be in the same building as my favorite cheesemonger. Done. And done. So I ran out and bought a yoga mat and some yoga pants. Now I'm doing yoga, and I like it. This class in particular focuses on making sure participants aren't overdoing it. Mary encourages her students to check-in with their bodies periodically, and offers alternatives to the poses just in case things get too intense. I love that. And I love how I feel after each class. I still can't touch my toes. But I think I'm getting closer to my knees. And without a doubt, this class is starting me down a healthier path. Well, at least a path with greater flexibility and maybe core strength. Because the health benefits from the class may be slightly diminished by my lunches at the cheese store next door. Which sometimes include an afternoon beer. Yoga followed by amazing cheese and great beer? That's my kind of exercise program.

If it feels WRONG IT IS!!@....with absolutely zero sense of community in a studio that feels like you are in a parking garage above a bar then this is the place for you....AND THE ONLY PLACE THAT I HAVE EVER PRACTICED THAT USES THE COMMAND ...EXALT ALOT .!!! ...Health and wellness is not what this place is about at all...more like a smug motley click of exercise junkies in some competition ....and I had gone there once when she first opened and it was the same then ...the only reason I just spent the entire winter and idk 650d going there was too try and heal from very severe trauma I had experienced...which REAL YOGA is very helpful with and to sweat...detox...but only hurt my body from Ego based classes and a nasty bacterial infection from the filthy floor that in 5 months of attending I only saw a cleaning service in the locker room once and never did I see the floor being cleaned and I went to back to back classes many many times...and no cleaning occurred...I spent 100d on a new mat there which I threw out after it being on the filthy floors and the sweat of the entire population of the place in it !!! And still have not healed from the bacterial infection I acquired there and its been well over a month and alot of Epsom salt bathes. Like most westernized things Yoga has been reduced to a narcissistic money grab..a big business....and I have come to the conclusion that being in a crowded hot oxygen deprived DIRTY room wearing some overpriced recycled polyester yoga outfit ie plastic on a expensive mat made of who knows what ??listening to some guru wanna be give commands IS NOT A HEALTHY CHOICE! And its not just this place ...most of them...this was just the worst example I ever experienced.... you vote with your TIME and MONEY..keeping mine and back to common sense and the best things in life are free...walking and getting fresh air ...stretching... feeding my mind.. body and spirit..not depleting it ....EXALTING THE LORD NOT SOME FREAK THAT THINKS THEY HAVE BECOME SOME DEMI GOD ...and if the saying cleanliness is next to Godliness is true well ...thus place is the anti Christ!

They have classes daily, morning and evening as to accommodate everyone's schedule. The instructors are so welcoming and knowledgeable, I have tried a number of classes and they are inclusive to all levels, beginner, intermediate and advanced. If you are looking for a place to practice you will not be disappointed. The studio is located inside of the Stockade Inn and is larger so you do not feel like sardines packed in even with a large class, there's plenty of space. They offer a 3 week trial pricing so you can choose the classes that best fit your schedule and preferred yoga class style. After the trial period is over they offer a number of different membership options. Or if you're just visiting the area you can always pay per class. It truly is the best of the best in my humble opinion.
