Amazing little yoga studio tucked away in a quiet corner of Brickell. The vibe and space are both…read morewelcoming and open. The teachers here are amazing especially Karen who teaches Fridays at 8 am. She takes very careful attention to detail in her classes and is incredibly helpful in making adjustments to your poses. At first I thought that 75 minutes would be too long for a yoga class but I am pleasantly surprised by how good I feel after going through all the different flows and stretches in a class. A must try studio for yogis both new and experienced.

This studio is a modern Christopher Columbus, wrong Indians aseres…read more It takes a special kind of audacity to name a studio after Skanda (Hindu god of war and Lord Shiva's son) only to sell a practice using "Dreamspell," a 90s fan-fic calendar invented by some hombre from Minnesota who wasn't even Maya. Seriously?! While I do believe that there is a divine energy that all spiritual practices connect to, there is NO all encompassing magical ancient alignment between Vedic tradition and Mesoamerican timekeeping - WHAT THERE IS is modern Miami marketing that tosses two unrelated cultures into a blender, and slapping on a sparkly label, 'Galactic Signature.' If you're truly tapping into cosmic energy, a high-octane Power Vinyasa flow for the gym body ego is the last type you'd promote. This place is spiritual smoothie that manages to be culturally tone deaf to both India and the Maya simultaneously.....all while overcharging to pretend that doing extra Chaturangas because of a Blue Cosmic Hand is anything other than a workout with a heavy layer of appropriation. It must be nice to have leverage over communities that either cannot or typically do not speak for themselves. I'd LOVE to see you try this with different ethnicities and see if you'd get away with this chopping up. It seems the rock climbing and bungee jumping rattled your brains enough to think spitting out this new age b.s. was spiritual aligned and culturally respectful.

Dharma is my absolute favorite yoga studio in Miami. I have been coming here for over 5 years and I…read morehave never been disappointed. They have incredible classes for all levels from hardcore yogis to beginners. The studio is small with a warm and inviting atmosphere. A staple in Coconut Grove, Dharma is the epitome of a community-minded small business. The teachers are amazing-- super knowledgeable, and friendly. The other students are very respectful. Every class I attend, I feel like I'm surrounded by friends (no judgment here!). In fact, I love taking friends who are new to yoga to the community class here on Friday nights. The proceeds benefit a different local charity every month, and afterwards, we usually get dinner together somewhere on Commodore. There is street parking here all along Commodore and Grand, which can get busy at certain times, but if you're a Grovite like me, there is bicycle parking right across from the studio. The cost of classes is average, and they run deals at different points throughout the year, which are amazing for returning students! Aside from their normal classes, they also run free community classes in Peacock Park on Tuesdays and Thursdays and a rooftop class at the Mayfair on Saturdays. Love, love, love this studio.

Loree and her studio have been a mainstay oasis in the greater oasis of Coconut Grove for years…read more The perfect little studio to practice hard core or beginners mind. The natural vibe invites you to be your self in your practice with a genuine feeling that all who enter here are dedicated to the art of yoga. With each teacher there is her/his unique style to allow you to expand your practice mindfully, with adventurous spirit and calm resolve. Those who come here are community and you get a sense of kinship with fellow yogis - like old souls meeting once again. It feels like coming home whenever I come to this sanctuary of yoga and meditation.

I can't say enough amazing things about Babe Hot Pilates! From the classes to the community to the…read morepeople behind the studio, the entire experience has been incredible. I recently completed my teacher training with Babe and I genuinely couldn't have asked for a better experience. The owner Hayley is amazing and the training was so well thought out, comprehensive, and supportive. I walked away feeling confident, prepared, and even more passionate about teaching Pilates. If you're considering taking classes, becoming an instructor, or simply finding a studio that makes you feel at home I couldn't recommend this studio more. So grateful to be part of the Babe family!

The vibiest hot mat class I've ever been to!!!…read more I wish we had something like this in Orlando.... I need them to open a location here ASAP! I was in town for a week for reformer Pilates training, and my friends have been raving about babe hot Pilates, and specifically about how amazing Alejandro is. We decided to take his "Cute Booty" class and my booty was definitely feeling it after this! Alejandro was extremely personable. He asked for song requests from the entire room, he made it a point to walk around and chat with clients before class started, and then he took us through an insane lower body workout. I was SWEATING! The playlist was fire, the workout was intense, and the vibes were 10 out of 10. I booked my class through ClassPass and it was 8 credits. I also needed to rent a mat because I didn't feel like traveling down to Miami with it, and the mat rental was $8. I will gladly come back here the next time I'm in Miami!

Miami Life Center is a consummate yoga studio. I first practiced Mysore style here in 2007 with…read moreco-founder Tim Feldman and then again with him in 2009. Many moons later their shala aka yoga studio moved from South Beach to the Wynwood neighborhood which is a unique neighborhood with many art galleries, heaps of graffiti murals, and an amazing vegan restaurant aka Love Life Cafe. I studied primarily Mysore style Ashtanga aka self-practice with Joseph Armstrong and also with Silvana. Along with more Yin and Restorative classes Yin with Wanda and Restorative with Dennis. All the teachers here are excellent, knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming. One room for improvement is during one Mysore class someone was texting throughout the class which was annoying. The studio should be a place to unplug from your phone. The studio offers remote zoom and in person both yet students in class shouldn't be texting on their phones if something is so important than they shouldn't be in class and handle that outside. I have spent many years abroad in India doing intense yoga studies and also here in North America yet feel that Miami Life Center is one of the best places to learn the transformative practice of Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga on our tiny planet. A big thank you for everything MLC Sangha and I will see you again in the near future.

I've gone to several Bikram yoga studios in Miami, Miami beach, Aventura, Ft.Lauderdale, etc.. and…read morethey're all pretty much the same....small and crowded, very crowded!! This studio at Bikram Hot Yoga Miami is hugemongeous compared to others i've been to. The instructors are all very friendly and they all have their own way of conducting the class. Some just stand on the platform and go through the whole routine without ever moving. Others like to move around a bit and call you out by name to make sure you're challenging yourself and doing the pose correctly which is sometimes a bit emabrrassing if you're a regular...but like Nicol S. said there is a good mix of people from beginners to more advanced, really young to very mature, fit and a bit on the heavier side, etc.... I believe they do follow in their cliam that says that this yoga is for everyone! PLUS, they have a very cool special for First-Time locals: unlimited classes for $39!!!! which is outstanding considering this yoga practice is not cheap!!! It's very challenging, and feels like torture every time i do it, but it's so worth the health benefits and you feel so proud of yourself after completing 90 minutes of sweet, hot torture as I like to call it! Be prepared to sweat,,,I mean get drenched due to the heater blasting for 90 minutes straight!!! Love it!

Buddha Shack isn't a regular yoga studio, it's a cool yoga studio…read more As I traipse around the city using ClassPass, I've now been to Buddha Shack three times. Most recently, I went to Buddha Burn with Jenna on a Sunday afternoon. This is the perfect kind of sweat you want before starting your week. It's intense and fast paced, but the music keeps you going, and she's sure to start and end with plenty of time to stay centered and meditate. I've also tried out Buddha Sculpt which was similar to CorePower, and also went one time where I was the only person there. I was super nervous, but Jenna put me at ease and still ran an awesome private class. The design of this studio is urban and hip, while still being serene. I love the gray walls, wood floor, and Buddha accents. They also excel at nice extra touches like the eucalyptus cold towels at the end, as well as complimentary regular dry towels for when you start sweating (which you will). Parking in the Grove can be a chore sometimes, so give yourself extra time if you're driving in. It's located in the same plaza as the Bookstore in the Grove, a bit hidden behind the plaza's stairs. Afterwards, there are so many perfect spots to grab a bite or coffee! Talk about one perfect day.

Confession: I like yoga a lot I just don't like going to yoga…read more I am very particular when it comes to instructors. When I heard that Jenna was going to be affiliated with Buddha Shack, I was immediately intrigued. I have taken other fitness classes with the Shack's co-founder Jenna and was pretty confident that I'd like her Hip-Hop Buddha Burn class but I was wrong: I didn't "like" Jenna's class, I loved it. The class is challenging with less ohm/chanting and more sweating. The music is so good: playlists feature the likes of J. Cole, Drake, Chance the Rapper along with Coldplay and Bob Marley. The hour long class goes by fast and once I'm sitting up from Savasana I am reminded why I love yoga: I am refocused, happy and calm. Buddha Shack is a beautiful, intimate, very clean, welcoming space. The neon sign above the front desk is my favorite decoration followed closely by the little Yoga Joes (the classic green plastic army men molded into yoga poses). The yoga room itself is heated but not too hot. It is perfectly, dimly lit. There is a mirrored wall but there is also plenty of wall space without mirrors if you prefer to not look at yourself. Things to know before you go: * If you don't own a yoga mat or forgot to bring it, you can rent one at the studio for a minimal fee. You can also purchase water and they have towels (which you will need as you will sweat). * The studio is in the courtyard near Akashi in Coconut Grove, next to a bike shop. * There is plenty of street parking. * Buddha Shack has a bathroom equipped with a shower.

We couldn't stop sweating!! Instructor was great. Used a round thing I've ever used in Pilates before. Would suggest wearing leggings to fully utilize the equipment. I wore shorts and was struggling to keep it in place because of the SWEAT. What was excellent was they email quickly and I was able to book 5 spots without having all my girls sign up for an app it was easy and effective! At the end of class they went around to turn on fans and put a towelette on you. It was great. Bonus there was a dog at the end named blue.
