Obsessed. I've been attending Black Swan Lovers for a little over a year and it's the only yoga I…read moredo now. I go 4 - 5x / week. I just love everything about it. It's a comfortable, informal space. It's also immersive--the familiar incense, heat, and black interior help me focus and put the outside world aside for an hour. Different instructors have their own styles and music but class structure is similar enough to practice across all of them. I love how many classes there are, all day every day, from 6 am to 9 pm or later--even holidays!! And multiple locations. I practice at Dallas Lovers but have gone to classes at the other Dallas studios and in Houston and Round Rock. All are equally comfortable and welcoming. I also appreciate the difficulty level. There's no pressure to do things you can't or don't want to, but there are lots of opportunities to advance. I'd classify myself as intermediate but I like the chance to practice headstands, arm balances, creative binds, etc. even when I'm not very good at them. You never know what you can do until you try!

You will definitely get your sweat on in here! It is clean, spacious. It is donation based yoga, but there is a minimum per class. I asked an instructor years ago if they got the donations, and they said no. But that could have been in the past. The only negative I have is parking. There are only about 20ish spots. So with 50 people attending the classes you have to find parking in the other side of the fence which is a bit sketchy, but fine.

Thankfully, ClassPass has made this so much easier to switch it UP! As a part time fitness instructor with a very strong routine, I constantly find myself craving variety. This place has been on my hit list for a while and I was so happy to be able to finally go last night! And boy, am I glad I did. I tried the hot vinyasa class with Lesa and it was 60 minutes of hot and sweaty bliss. The room was packed and the VYBE was jumping! I was warmly greeted and even though I arrived a few minutes before class Lesa greeted me happily and showed me the ropes. They have towels and water/beverages for purchase. BYO yoga mat but they have those as well. The salt lamps in the studio were a beautiful touch and so were the essential oils. I parked my mat pretty close to the diffuser so I was LOVING the aromatherapy while I got my yoga on. Lesa's class was a booty kicker but she also broke it down and provided modifiers for those of us who aren't so limber but aspire to be (raises hand). Blame my tight endurance athlete hamstrings. At the end of the 60 minutes they provide you with essential oil infused cold towels. The Lakeside area is the perfect location, surrounded by luxury living as well as an abundance of retail shops. The community seems very tight knit here as well. Thankful I was able to come here and cannot wait to use my ClassPass to return for another hot class soon and very soon!!

None of the lighting inside can be seen outside. The studio was spacious and clean. Plenty of space to leave your bag and shoes up front.

I've taken the Vinyasa class led by Deandre and the Acroyoga class. Both classes are beginner friendly and also tailored for advanced students. Each time I've come here I've felt so welcomed and left feeling amazing from class and the community environment they have created. Everyone is so welcoming- instructors AND the students. I have to admit, I'm really picky about which studios I go too (my faves are Twist and Karmany), but I have easily added The Yoga Movement to that list. If you've never been to this studio, they offer a great deal for new students; $50 for 10 classes!

The studio was located on the 2nd floor of a historic-looking building, and it had its own private lot, which was a bonus. The practice space was spacious and stunning. I loved how the room was lined with windows that brought in natural light. The class I signed up for was at 6:45pm, so it was just in time for the sunset. Deka was our instructor for the flow. He was so welcoming and kindly got me acquainted to the space. He has such a calming voice that it nearly put me to sleep during savasana. I look forward to stopping by V12 Yoga again next time I'm in Dallas.

For a Friday night, the class was packed. The instructor did a good job, was clear with direction though I'll admit to lagging and having to eye-hustle some of my neighbors since I haven't taken a class in over a decade so I was unsure/ couldn't remember many positions. This definitely didn't feel like a beginner class. Between the dim nights, the instructors mellifluous voice, and the general vibes I have to admit I fell asleep. A very mellow, relaxing class which was perfect after a long week. I'll definitely come back to this class the next time I'm looking for a yoga class, it was a nice stretch and relax session.

If you like structure and consistency in your yoga classes, then you'll like Gaia. I first…read morediscovered them on ClassPass, but I stopped doing CP and going to Gaia directly. My favorite class is Still Water (yin yoga) which is focused on holding single poses for a longer duration. I also like the other two beginner classes, Gentle Waves and Dessert, although I honestly can't discern between the two. Classes typically start with a warm up of some kind (core work in the normal classes) followed by a short 5 minute group discussion. I'll admit the first time I can to Gaia this part was WEIRD. But it has grown on me, I like hearing the "good news" from other people in the class - it gives a sense of community. They also do a short spiritual on the yamas & niyamas. It's nothing weird, I often do find that the instructors give me something new to consider. That's followed by another 40mins or so of practice. During the final minutes of practice, the instructor massages your shoulders and neck with an energizing lotion. I'll admit that I find it a little gross, but I still enjoy it. I mostly feel bad for the instructors. Other things I like: early morning practices, yoga mats and blocks available, room is kept warm (not hot!), and easy parking. My only gripe is that practices don't always end on time. Combine that with having to arrive early (late yogis have to shamefully tap on the glass to get the instructor to let them in!), a one hour yoga class can quickly turn into a 2 hour affair. I've been loving my at-home practice but when I need something more I'll still be coming here and nowhere else.
