WHERE DO I PARK?

We offer free parking in our parking lot.



I'M NOT FLEXIBLE. CAN I STILL DO YOGA?

Absolutely! If you are feeling intimidated (which is totally normal!) consider starting with our Begin, Ground or Slow Flow classes. All of our knowledgeable teachers will help you find the pose that’s right for your body. With consistent practice, your flexibility will improve tremendously!



​I’M BRAND NEW TO YOGA, WHERE DO I START?

It’s best to start in our Begin, Ground or Slow Flow classes. We recommend setting your mat up in the middle of the room so you can look around at the other students in class and follow their lead. We have everything you need (mats, blocks, blankets) to practice at the studio, and we even offer a special rates to new students: $45 for 21 days of unlimited yoga. This way, you can take all of the classes you like and experience different teachers and styles. Once you start to learn the names of the postures, the experience becomes much more natural.



ARE ALL THE CLASSES HEATED?

Yes! We love heating our studio to a toasty-warm 90 degrees year round.



WHY YOGA?

We believe yoga is for everyone. The word "yoga" means union. It is a state of being in the present, focusing on the here and now. It's a path to self discovery, fine-tuned awareness, and unification of the mind, body and soul. Yes, it is a series of postures that makes you sweat and burn calories, but more than that, it is a way to escape the restrictions of the mind and the limitations we put on ourselves. Studies have shown that a regular practice can not only improve the body’s strength, flexibility, and balance, but can actually reduce blood pressure, improve sleep quality, and decrease stress levels.



WHAT ARE MEMBERSHIPS?

Our membership is our unlimited yoga package. Membership is our way of making yoga available to all. It's our most affordable payment option; we even give a discount to students, educators, civil servants, veterans, and year long commitments! Email us to inquire about discounts.



CAN I SHARE CLASS PACKS?

While we want you to share yoga with your loved ones, class packs are non-transferable. However, we do offer a family membership option: $89/month and $30 for each additional family member. Email us to inquire about our family membership.



WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?
