KIRTAN WITH DAWN B, KISH RICO, AND KISHOR GOPAL 1/7/2024 "In order to relink - you must relinquish." I loved this line Kish Rico shared during Kirtan. Kish Rico had traveled six hours from his Hare Krishna temple to lead the practice. His devotion radiated around him and fed the room with love. Kishor Gopal had flown into Miami from his ashram to participate in the event - his passion radiated to the beat. Dawn B. - the owner of Ahana Yoga Studio - began the practice, leading us all in a beautiful chant. Her smile was infectious. Her energy sincere. Pillows, bolsters, and blankets were set for us in a circle around the blanketed stage/shrine. Once the chanting began, we were asked to scoot closer towards the "stage" and become one with each other. I lost track of which voice was mine and felt as if I had the power of 100 voices as I was singing. There was a ferociousness that erupted on the back end of the practice. It was such a great natural body high. The video above doesn't do it justice because when it was most mindblowing, my eyes were closed, and I was singing. I tried to break myself from the trance for a few moments so I would have something visual to share with you all.

Great experience at this studio every time. Love the instructors and the atmosphere.

Such a lovely place, full of vibrant people! Great staff and reasonable pricing, would highly reccommend!

I found Dawn completely unprofessional & rude. She also seemed unprepared for class-her sequencing wasn't intelligent or dynamic, and there was no time integrity (we started late & ended extremely late). There were children & dogs in the room, many students and staff members filming class, and staff members walking around offering assists throughout class (without asking students for their permission first). I could say so much more, but I will just leave it at that this place is NOT for me. read more

I had a wonderful experience at Ahana Yoga! I loved the studio and teachers. The studio was beautiful and I loved the music high energy.

Amazing place! I was never a fan of yoga, but after years of training in jiu jutsu and training in CrossFit, this place got be hooked. And for the nyc lady here in the comments who left a terrible review - just cut your snobby nyc crap off. Leave your selfish lordy opinion to yourself. I am myself from nyc and hated ppl like you, you are the type who never will be satisfied and the only satisfaction is to say nasty things . Just go back to nyc, you obviously need to chill if you are so hot here. read more

AMAZING CLASS!! My friend took me here for my first class and it was so deep and spiritual. My vibes were so high after class and the yoga room was perfect temperature, not too hot not too cold. The instructor, Dharma Dev, was very attentive and light hearted and took great care of the energy in the room. I would definitely return! read more

Very lovely space. A caring community and plenty of room and freedom to have the class that you want to have for yourself.

Visited this studio for the first time and had a good experience. I've tried several yoga studios in the area and this one has a nice vibe. They have a small store with clothes and yoga accesories and the bathroom was clean. Parking is accesible around the area, street parking or parking garage options around. My only comment is that one of the rooms is really small, the class was no more than 12 people and it felt crowded. People coming in a couple minutes late had to squeeze in between and make others who were there earlier move so it was a little uncomfortable. The instructor was great, he guided us throughout the moves and assisted everyone. He also rubbed oil on everyone's back which I was not expecting but didn't mind. Class was challenging but definitely worth trying. At the beginning and end of class the instructor used an instrument (some type of accordion) to go with the singing, this was my favorite part! read more

See all

Ale did a wonderful flow. I love how the energy built up. The yummy scented cloth at the end was cold and very grounding. Thank you

An eclectic dynamic team of leaders, healers, light seekers sharing their journey of going inward by leading by example and creating the space for one to do the same. An inclusive diverse community that embraces and challenges you through all levels of your practice and inward journey. Home. read more

The gossiping from the staff while i waited for my class made me uneasy. Gossip is such a negative vibe. However the yoga class was great. Hope the location adjust its energy read more

This is my favourite yoga studio in Miami. The location is perfect and the venue is cool, modern and boasts high ceilings and great decor, including the most fabulous restroom you ever did see and a shower room too. The teachers are excellent (special nod to Dawn, Liz and Sandrine) and the staff are all fun, friendly and helpful. The owners, Dawn and her husband, Dr Danny both teach at Ahana, adding further to the family feel of the place. The style of the classes is something else I really value. In many yoga studios these days, you get the feeling that the practice is designed solely to be a workout. At Ahana, they are fantastic at balancing the content of the class and always emphasise the spirit as well as the sweat! Highly recommended for all levels. read more

My experience at Ahana was amazing. The atmosphere was welcoming, the teacher was engaging, I was assisted through my practice and felt renewed after the experience. Inspiring, challenging, fun. If this wasn't enough, the studio provided complimentary live music including singing and drums during the length of the class. Top notch Highly recommend!! read more

I absolutely LVE this studio. I have taken yoga classes from multiple instructors and each one bring their own great flair. I always leave feeling energized and refreshed. The classes are good for most all levels and the instructors I have tried have all been very knowledgeable. One thing I love that Ahana does is they have a topic of the month that each instructor speaks on for a few minutes at the beginning of each class. By taking various classes throughout the month you gain a better understanding of yoga, and not just the asana practice, which I love because I love learning. Most recently I took Dawn's Sunday 10 AM class and it was seriously magical. The energy in the room was beautiful and it was a spiritual experience. Ahana is now updating profiles of members who practice at their studio that includes what the yogi/yogini is working on. So if you are working on your forearm stand, it will be noted and each instructor will see this before class and assist you in these areas. Pretty sweet, right? Way to step up customer service Ahana! read more

This is HANDS DOWN(ward dog) the B E S T yoga studio I've ever been to! They truly stand by their community feel! Everyone there makes a genuine effort to know your name and make you feel welcome from the first class you attend. I've always wanted to have a consistent practice, and Ahana Yoga has made this possible through their flexible schedules throughout the entire day as well as various class types. Every class I've taken has been the best...and every time I think it can't get any better it DOES! Bravo to Ahana for creating such an exemplary environment that I can't wait to get to each day! I feel like a different person on AND off the mat T H A N K | Y O U read more

Great studio! I live very close by and it's very conveniently located. I found street parking and there's also a parking garage close by. I tried it for the first time last night and it was awesome. The instructor was great. The only thing I would say is they packed that room too much but other than that I was very happy and would certainly recommend! read more

I have been practicing yoga for over twenty years. First at the Open Center in NYC when I was 22.Then had the opportunity to go on a few retreats. At one point I actually thought it for a couple of months.It's a spiritual practice which connects the mind and body in poses that promotes wellness and enlightenment. I moved to Miami about 7 months ago and was looking forward to resuming my practice after doing yoga at home because of COVID. Well it's hot in Miami and the studio is not ventilated, air conditioned and they do have ceiling fans which they don't use. So it's always HOT Yoga. Secondly I tried to find classes that had a flow from pose to pose. I tried three. The practice is manic instead of meditative. The transitions race faster and faster from one to the other. The whole experience is more like doing calisthenics then practicing yoga. There was an occasional omm, which is the only part that felt familiar.It was downward facing dog to warrior one in two minutes. The girls were in a competition as to who could move faster. The place is completely misguided. What a shame ! Don't recommend it for anyone looking for a spiritual experience. read more

This is the best studio I've ever been to Miami. My practice has immensely improved since I started attending here. The instructors are all so hands on, always involved and correcting students. Dawn, the owner, is so cool; I'm laughing, sweating, singing and learning through every class. If you want to really learn Vinyasa, Mysore, Kirtan, grow your practice and meet like-minded yogis, come here!!!! Also, the studio is clean and easy to access. So glad I found Ahana read more

Overall love the classes here- great environment and really friendly staff. Disappointed with the extra assistance given to "favorite students"/friends in the classes. Also, yoga teachers are allowed to attend each others' classes at no cost and seem to receive the most assistance during these classes, while the beginners are left struggling. Would hope that this changes. read more

This place is incredible. It brings the spirituality back to the yoga practice. I love it here, because yoga it's more than the asanas, it's a way of life, and they embody that here. Thank you! read more

Awesome people. Warm staff with great ambience! Great up and coming part of town with easy parking. A yoga studio with great, knowledgeable instructors and warm environment. Even cool art on the walls! read more

Ahana Yoga - Yoga Near Me - Miami, Florida

Yay! Yoga in midtown, finally!! Uber sleek and chic studio, shower inside, and the class was really challenging (JP takes no prisoners) and was light on the religion which I appreciate - I do yoga for abs, not ohms. Thrilled to have this in walking distance!! read more

Great! Perfect yoga studio and well located. Wonderful energy when you walk in.

A tranquil escape in the Miami. I'm kind of obsessed with the sun and moon rooms and the teachers are great!

The Ahana Yoga shala is a super modern and cool looking space! It has so many dedicated practitioners already visiting regularly and a really great staff of teachers! The kids yoga program is a hit too! I feel so comfortable being at Ahana and the location is so nice - close to everything you would want in Miami - OH and bonus - there's easy parking!! read more

walked in and knew this would be my home studio. its just perfect! my favorite teachers are dawn, brooke, liz and daylene

This place is the BEST. Decided to try another studio in the area and am running back here they are so sweet and welcoming and always appreciative of your business. Highly recommend. read more

Seriously. It's the most beautiful studio I've been to in Miami. Very clean. Great energy. I took the 45 minute lunchtime class after being in a funk all morning. It was a total reset and walked out a new woman. Looking forward to trying additional classes. read more

My first yoga class in almost three years because of injury. I had Jasmyn and she was fantastic. The physical space is really cool and tranquil despite the bustle right outside the door. Great small shop. Cool and clean bathrooms. read more

I always get a little nervous before I drop a superlative; but in this case, it's truly warranted: Ahana might just be the BEST studio in Miami. At the same time, a small, selfish part of me doesn't want to review Ahana because it's still a hidden gem of authenticity and awesomeness and I just know it's going to blow up in popularity any minute now. The studio itself is perfect. Every single detail is thought out. And I do mean every detail. They have sleek chrome fans and gorgeous, white Bose speakers suspended from the ceiling that perfectly match the blue abstract wallpaper and ombre wall panels. I mean, you know they aren't skimping when even the ceiling looks good. The vibe is genuinely and disarmingly welcoming. People actually say hello to you, *gasp* introduce themselves, and make a point to help you get the most out of class and feel comfortable. Not for nothing, but I can count the number of times I've been greeted with actual kindness and warmth at a yoga studio on one hand. It's almost like they are, you know, putting their practice into...practice?! Last but by no means least, JP may have served up one of the best classes I've ever taken...in my life. The flow was energetic, empowering, athletic, and wholly mindful. The sequences of poses really built on each other so that the end of class felt like a huge mental and physical triumph. If you think I'm starting to sound a little gushy over here, chalk it up to the mental effects of said flow and get yourself over to Ahana to get in on the action. Don't you want to feel this ridiculously good too? read more
