I attended a really nice 2 hour New Year's Day Yin and meditation class here. There were two…read moreteachers, both friendly and with good energy. It was great to have time to really get deep into the poses, as well as time for restful moments of meditation. I do think the classroom was too full with 14 people in there. 12 is really all that can be comfortably accommodated. It was ok for this slow, gentile practice, but for anything more active I would have felt too cramped. I look forward to going back again for another class.

The staff makes a point to know your name and admires you during class. Secondly, the location is seriously perfect! Right between Commercial and Congress St, it's super easy to access. They also have yoga mats available so no worries if you're missing yours!

Greener postures studio was my safe haven when I was going through a difficult period in my life…read more The studio, teachers, & community was a sacred place that allowed me to practice feeling, being mindful, & learning to love myself through each posture, thought, or emotion. This community set me on a positive trajectory where asana practice, breath work, & community continues to be a core part of my everyday like more than ten years later. Every chance I get to visit Portland, along with oysters & lobster rolls, I make GPY a priority stop. Definitely a place that feels like home--I hope it does to you too!

Moving from Texas, I have been on the search for a new yoga studio to call my home. Lila East End…read moreis a small studio where the mats face each other, you WILL be squeezed next to other people. In the middle, is a narrow path way for the instructor to pass through and to demonstrate. This is not your customary practice, but hey it's a new place so why not try something new? Came in to an "All Levels Yoga" with Chelsea. Chelsea, is an incredibly beautiful person inside and out. It's hard not to be mesmerized by her! However... this definitely felt more like a Beginners class. It is great if you're just starting or you've been out of practice for awhile. Chelsea has all the best intentions, but I tend to get lost (not mesmerized) by her verbiage. In yoga, a flow should be easy to follow just by closing your eyes and listening to what the instructor is saying. You follow through continuously, and that's what creates "The Flow". I've practiced for 9 years now, but for some odd reason, I WAS LOST. My feet were everywhere thinking this position was something new, when in reality, I'VE DONE WARRIOR POSES HUNDREDS OF TIMES. WHY COULDN'T SHE JUST SAY THAT. She ended class with everyone in Savasana... and proceeded to sing. I was definitely thrown off by that, but was strangely comforted by her soothing "Mom Voice" at the same time, And so, the search continues.

This friendly little yoga studio really fulfilled my need for a midday break on a recent trip to…read morePortland. I was staying at The Press Hotel, about a 7-10 minute scenic stroll from here and decided to do a drop-in class at noon on a Thursday with Heather. The room is extremely inviting and comfy, with a perfect temperature (I dislike extremely warm rooms) and just enough natural light. Mats face each other, which I'm not used to, but it's definitely the way to optimize the long narrow space. Heather's class was playful, at times a bit more intense, but I'd say this is an all levels class, verging more on the gentle side. What I liked most about it was the departure from "typical" sun salutations. I get the idea that you can expect something a little different from class to class. Heather is an excellent instructor, kind and patient. If I lived in the area, I definitely would be a regular in her class. I'm already looking forward to my next trip to Portland so that I may return to this sweet spot!
