About Downtown Yoga

Yoga instructors at Downtown Yoga have participated in intensive & comprehensive programs and some have participated in residential Teacher Training Certification programs as long as 6 months. Along with our regular teaching staff, we have visiting guest teachers who teach at Downtown Yoga. Our instructors also maintain current recertification qualifications. This ensures that you, our students, receive the highest quality of instruction available today.

Our vision is to make yoga accessible to everyone regardless of age or athletic ability. By balancing a serious, rigorous regimen in a clean, safe and humor-inspired environment, we are able to offer instruction to both novice and experienced practitioners. Each pose is a challenge based on our personal, individual abilities.

Downtown Yoga's staff is comprised of a group of highly qualified instructors who have completed numerous hours of training courses across the country and abroad. They continuously update their yoga knowledge and practice by attending educational workshops, trainings and seminars, allowing them to share current trends and up-to-date information with their students.

Studio instruction includes classes in Ashtanga Yoga, Flow and Core. These classes are either 60 or 90 minutes in length and involve a set of therapeutic yoga stretching postures and breathing exercises. Practicing Ashtanga yoga will build strength and hone balance and flexibility by gently stretching and massaging the spine, muscles, tendons, joints and internal organs. Because of the intense attention placed on breath during practice, your lung capacity will be expanded.

Regular practice of Ashtanga Yoga, Gentle Flow and Flow classes may aid in the healing and repair of injuries and illnesses and may result in weight loss. The overall meditative act of practicing yoga can bring peace of mind.
