Lovely environment for yoga class. Class is taken in a soothing warm room, not crowded. Would come back!

I came to Humming Puppy seeking out a more restorative style studio and also out of curiosity for the 'hum'. The hum is a curated soundscape designed to enhance your focus and is played throughout the entirety of class followed by a sound bath. The Mellow Hum class that I signed up for said that you will find restoration, recovery and deep reflection with low impact stretches. It was a beautiful experience. What I loved, * The hum was a consistent vibration that you could feel throughout your entire body the whole class. * Studio room is exquisite. No mirrors, the mats are pre-set up and stadium style. There's a low incline for each row of mats so that people in the back can see the instructor easily. * There's low lighting and all the props you could need. * The instructor, Katey Lewis was well versed in sanskrit and modifications and provided a very beautiful closing note that I appreciated. * They offer tea in the lobby for pre and post class. This was phenomenal after class to have something warm. They had two different kinds, both delicious. The studio is a great inclusive space for yogis looking to practice the heart and soul of yoga. I'm not sure how much a drop in/membership is but you can find them on Classpass. Also to note, when I posted about my visit on Instagram a couple of my yoga instructor friends in California talked about how much they've been wanting to come here so it sounds like this place is well known around the country/globe.

Very relaxing studio, well maintained, very nice. Definitely a vibe of "yoga as a practice" and like lifestyle as opposed to somewhere you go for a drop-in class when you want a light workout. The patrons are serious. Read the class descriptions because they are all truly different. Love that they have tea out!

Gorgeous lobby with tea set up for students to enjoy after class

Had an excellent class where we flowed, om'd, and finished in shavasana with a sound bath. Now I'm not saying this is the type of yoga people are doing in India but if you don't appreciate traditional yoga this studio may not be for you. Our teacher, Dana, was well-versed in the Sanskrit translations of our poses and and is well versed on yogi principles. This is something pretty hard to fine in NYC yoga classes. This isn't a HIIT workout with music blasting, I believe they were playing brown noise during class and we weren't pushed too far. Definitely not a crazy workout but I'm getting back into my practice so it was perfect for me. After class, there was tea for us in the lobby, one caffeinated and one with low caffeine. I thought that was the perfect touch to a great experience. Sharing a photo of the gorgeous lobby as well!

In town for a week and was looking for a place to continue my regular yoga practice in the NoMad area. Signed up for a class at Humming Puppy on a Saturday and was glad I did! Studio has a cool, laid back vibe, it was very clean and they provided everything - just need to show up with yourself and and maybe some water. I took a 60 minute Unity class which was a great blend of effort and ease - accessible to all levels, assuming some basic knowledge of postures. There are other difficulty levels available as well. The name Humming Puppy comes from the rhythmic sound of the bowls which plays in the background in lieu of music and is designed to get you into flow. I found it quite soothing. Loved the class so much I took another on Sunday. Nice lounge and tea service to extend your relaxation post class. Great place to get your zen on!

A bit of heaven in NYC. I'm ecstatic that Humming Puppy reopened in May 2022. Of all the places in New York that I was worried about surviving the COVID era, Humming Puppy was one of only two places I was concerned about. I am so happy that everything has stayed the exact same, in a great way. The studio is absolutely beautiful and calming. The classes are great, with a dull hum in the background of every class instead of music. While the classes are solid and great, I LOVE the sound bath they do during shavasana. They have separate sound bath classes available, which may go to. There are currently 3 class difficulty types, but I can't tell a big difference between the unified hum (for everyone) and dynamic hum (offers advanced variations). At the end of class, there are two types of teas available (and water) available in the lobby. I miss the coconut water of the pre-COVID days. The studio provides Manduka mats, blocks and straps for no extra fee (!). There are also hand towels available for use. There's 4/5 shower stalls and 2 bathroom stalls if you want to get ready there as well. I love how calming, meditative, and soothing Humming Puppy is every time I step into the studio. Highly recommend it!

First timer here! This studio is incredibly clean, calm and welcoming. I love that they provide all the tools needed for the class. I took my class (Mellow Hum) with Amy and she's incredible. She's very patient and is attentive to all the first-timers. I love that they refrain everyone from bringing technology into the studio. It provides a safe space to be in tune with your body and mind. They provide tea before and after class, which is a huge plus. Will definitely be returning back for more classes! Thank you again, Amy!

Love Humming Puppy. I would be perfectly content sitting here all day sipping on coconut water. This studio is the simplicity of zen meeting the functionality of state. Every detail of this space is carefully crafted with intention. The Goliath by Christopher Boots is so grounding and beautiful as it brims with smoky and clear quartz. The gorgeous flower arrangements by fleursBella are just so grand and sophisticated, the beautiful coconut water pitcher by Fefo Studio gives it a kick of zen, and the bathroom products by Aurora Spas and the hair dryers & straightening irons by GHD hair gives it a touch of luxury. The asanas are practiced in a nice dim studio that is painted all black. The temperature is around 80ish degrees. The practice is pretty simple since it's done in a heated room, however it is deepened by the "humming" vibration diffusing throughout the quiet space. The "hums" are by no means accidental. It's a combination of 7.38Hz and 40Hz frequencies, which brings you into a meditative zero state, while allowing you the option to experience the vibrational state without being out of your physical body. This studio is well equipped with complimentary towels, mats, filtered water, tea, coconut water, hair straighteners and dryers, lockers with key locks, hair ties, shower caps, etc., making it convenient when you're an on the go yogini. If you're coming for practice, it is recommended to sign up online and reserve your mat space ahead of time as they fill up pretty quickly. They also offer complementary classes from time to time so keep an eye out for those as they also quickly fill up.

Hi! I was wondering if there is typically a queue for the showers in the 7:30AM classes? If so do you think this line would be max 30min?

Hi Andrea, thanks for your message. We have four shower stalls here in the studio for the women's restroom. I would say the wait could be 10-15 minutes.

Heads up that the mellow hum classes are more of a meditative class then a traditional yoga class.

During our whirlwind of a weekend visiting NYC, my husband and I woke up on a Saturday morning and…read moredecided we could both use a little bit of yoga to start our day... We searched Yelp for a nearby studio with a class that was appealing and we found that this new Midtown East CPY studio had a Core Power Yoga 2 class that morning... we weren't sure we'd make it, and we walked in just a few minutes before the class started, but the ladies at the front desk worked with us to get us registered and into the class and we were so appreciative. Kelsea W was our teacher and she was fabulous... she had some unique sequences that allowed my mind to focus on the present moment and just move / enjoy the class. Needless to say, it was exactly what I needed! The studio itself is spacious, offers lockers, bathrooms, water refills, a bit of a retail store, mats, towels, and more... So yes, CPY is a chain, but it's consistent and if you find the right teacher / class, you'll get just what you need in that moment. Thanks again, Kelsea!

We've been coming to CorePower Yoga - Midtown East for over a month now and have really enjoyed…read moretheir CP2 and YS classes. We've had the chance to take classes both in the mornings and evenings, and have likely practiced with most of their instructors at least once. The class schedule is great, and with our membership, booking spots for the high-demand classes isn't a hassle. We've had no trouble getting off the waitlist for early morning sessions either. All of the instructors have been friendly and excellent to work with, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Even when classes are full, the space doesn't feel too cramped, which makes for a comfortable and enjoyable experience. We highly recommend this location!

The owner remembers everyone's names and has a very positive energy. The only downside is that they sell water bottles instead of offering a water cooler for water. Granted that New York tap water is very drinkable, I didn't really like that they offered water for sale, especially since it was in 16 oz plastic bottles. However, they sold coconut water which a lot of people purchased.

The instructor was also amazing, and he made sure to ask every person how they felt after the class, so you can tell he really cared. The class itself was surprisingly challenging and I even felt sore the next day. Overall, this was a great workout and I had so much fun. It's located very close to my office, so I will definitely be coming here after work on some days.
