I've been coming to Pure Bliss for a long time and I love all the staff here. I think they do a…read moregreat job with their programming. They often do special events like sound baths and belly dancing among others. Once or twice a year, they host a yoga retreat abroad. This year was to India. They also offer yoga teacher training here. Many of the people who train here actually go on to teach here too. They recently added some new staff from Bamboo Moves, which recently closed down, so they'll be expanding their schedule. My one issue with Pure Bliss is that, because they have so many teachers, there tends to be a lot of variability with the classes. Pure bliss taught by one teacher may be entirely differently than the same pure bliss class with someone else and the difficult level varies tremendously. In general, it's all levels class, but someone's it can be more challenging based on who's in the room and other times it can be very gentle. As I've developed in my practice, I intentionally try to take the classes that will challenge me more. Lateefah, Zeni, Brian and Andrea are good for this. Brian emphasizes more flow in his class. The others are a good mix of both flow and postures. Nancy is good too if you want a more athletic class, but not necessarily as postures focused. Edit: first review should say "gentle hatha yoga" not baths

I have never taken a yoga class so i was a bit nervous. The instructor Kaori was very thorough,…read moremade me feel comfortable and confident. I didn't expect it to be such a work out. It was also an extremely deep stretch which my body definitely needed. The class was full of people of all levels. They offer modifications for high level students. I recommend bringing a yoga mat, if you do not have one they can provide a loaner mat. I will definitely be back and try other class. I also noticed they offered classes virtually which live streamed during scheduled class times. Their classes are very reasonably priced. They offer an intro 2 week unlimited for $25. They also have a location in Edgewater. Their classes are from as early at 6:30am to the latest being 7:30pm on during the week. They do offer weekend classes 9am to 1pm on Saturday and 8:30am to 1:15 and one 5pm class at the end of the day.

He was beyond helpful in giving adjustments & options. I have tried almost all of their instructors at this point & I love how each of them are different but all have the same general methods of teaching. It's a really small studio but I love that about it. I also love that they offer virtual classes so I can squeeze in a class between meetings or when traveling. I highly recommend UWS yoga!

I really wanted to like this studio more than I do, unfortunately. Similar to what some other…read morereviewers have stated, it's not the most organized operation. A few of the classes/instructors are really great (Mimi and LG, for example), but I generally found it really distracting how MUCH all the instructors talk so much during the classes. It's really hard to focus/concentrate; that might be fine for some people but I had never encountered a yoga studio like that before. Finally, the studio space is not always that clean.
