I've attended YogaFamily's mind and body positive yoga class three times now, and am totally…read morehooked. I never thought of myself as the kind of person who does any kind of fitness classes, but here I am showing up and having lots of fun! The class size is fairly small, which is great because each of us gets personal attention. We spend quite a bit of time experimenting with the poses and props to find what works for our specific bodies. As a plus size woman, this is really important to me, because my body simply doesn't move the same way a smaller person's body would. Saralyn's teaching style is a great match for this type of class because she's not afraid to be vulnerable herself. She sometimes refers to notes, she can't magically do every pose known to man, and she uses props herself in many poses. Those small things make me feel a lot more comfortable not being particularly "good" at this myself. In each class we take a bit of time to check in with our bodies, and she helps keep us centered and present within our bodies throughout the class. I never feel like my bigger body is a problem for her, and it's clear that she's genuinely interested in how my body moves and the modifications that might make a pose work for me. In fact, last week I *finally* was able to do child's pose in a way that felt good and opened up my hips a bit for the first time, using some props and Saralyn's guidance. I also did a teeny tiny backbend for the first time, which is something I never thought my body would be able to do. Overall, I highly recommend YogaFamily's mind and body positive class and am excited to try some of their other classes as well.

I was new here and found this studio to be authentic, and kind and comfortable for new guests without any attitudes but true warmth. Los Angeles was home to the largest name teachers like Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa, Tej, Guru Singh and others we followed for so many years but then after Covid, much of the industry shifted into closed down studios, no more early pre-sunrise Sadhana daily meditation by candlelight, and even after completion of my License with Yoga West in L.A, I truly feel so out of the loop of our meditation and mantra and yoga community. This is a great studio and I hope to reconnect when the best time soon.

Absolutely LOVE this yoga center. I have attended 3 classes so far (with two different…read moreinstructors), and I enjoyed all of them! I leave each classes feeling energized and cleansed. The instructors and attendees are all very nice. It's a comfortable place that doesn't feel intimidating. The workout varies- sometimes more sweaty than others, sometimes more breathwork and chanting, etc...I enjoy the variety! And the class breezes by! I really enjoy the Sunday 5pm class the most. I wish the times were different. A 6pm class would be perfect. 5:30 is hard to make after work, and 7pm leaves a pretty big gap of waiting....thus, I usually only attend on Sundays. I would attend more during the week if times matched my schedule better. For now, I will settle on 1x per week, and I really look forward to that class. I highly recommend this center if you're looking to try Kundalini yoga!

The Vibe: Something Beautiful Is Unfolding The drive to SOL…read moreYoga winds along Lake Washington Boulevard. Through the Washington Park Arboretum. Trees. Lake. Mountains. Beauty everywhere. I arrived early. The studio wasn't open yet. Perfect. Grabbed coffee. Took pictures of the positive messaging discovered nearby: Hope. Breathe. Courage. Peace. Kindness. Believe. One read: "Trust that something beautiful is unfolding." Meanwhile... something beautiful was unfolding. Joggers passed. Teenagers played in the water. At 7:15 in the morning. The whole place was alive. The Guide: Leah Wyatt When the doors opened, Leah welcomed me with a smile. She checked me in. Handed me a mat. Once we were settled in the room, she introduced herself as our guide, there to support us in how we had shown up. Those words carried more than expected. We began seated. Four-count box breathing. Then an intention. Mine: Īśvara Praṇidhāna. Surrender. Trust the unfolding. Then... movement. Sun A with side stretching flowed into a Mandala sequence. Around the mat we went. Turning. Breathing. Letting the next move find us. Leah reminded us: "Breathe." Then... "Push the air out, let go." The Mandala built and so did the music. Body. Breath. Beat. All moving together. The flow eventually opened into long holds with options for Bird of Paradise, Triangle, and Reverse Triangle. Effort. Breath. Release. Again: Let go. Her words stayed. As Leah brought us back from Savasana, she told us what a pleasure and a privilege it had been to guide us that morning. She could not have expressed the morning more perfectly. What a pleasure. What a privilege. The Tribe The entire morning was awake & alive. Outside: Runners. Swimmers. Coffee drinkers. People beginning their day beside the water. Inside: A room full of yogis arriving exactly as they were. The Space & Place SOL Yoga may be one of the most beautiful yoga studios I've visited. Windows everywhere. Trees filling the view. Natural light. Wood beams overhead. An arched glass window. A small altar tucked into the space. Nature... part of the studio. Yoga Field Note: Trust the Unfolding The road curved. The Mandala turned. The music built. The breath carried us through. Maybe surrender is trusting the next turn. Studio Notes * Free Parking * Light-filled studio surrounded by trees * Mats available * Water station, cubbies, and restroom inside * Come early...the drive is part of the experience

"First time?" Yes. "Welcome!" She gave me a mini tour. Handed me a complimentary mat. Sent me toward the warm room. Already, I could feel the pace changing. The Guide: Julia * Be Flow We began seated. Gentle head rolls. Easy movement. Nothing hurried. Julia gradually brought us into a low-to-the-ground flow: Cheetah. One-Legged Upward-Facing Dog. Wild Thing. The room was cozy warm rather than hot. And after a weekend filled with movement, cozy warm felt exactly right. The practice gradually opened. Julia offered options for Bird of Paradise. Then Flying Pigeon. Challenges offered. Choices given. And then, somehow... class was over. Too soon. So I walked back to the front desk. "I'd love to stay for Be Still." But... The ClassPass window had already closed. Cat barely hesitated. They were offering a complimentary class. She had me. Just like that... I was back in. The Return: Be Still Back into the warm room. Back onto the mat. Back toward the ground. This time, even less to do. Julia guided us into long, supported shapes. In Deer Pose, we lowered onto bolsters. Drop. Allow. Each pose removed another layer of effort. Soften. Loosen. Deepen. Before Savasana, Julia offered one final shape: Blocks supporting the neck and head. The throat opened. The front of the body softened. And then... Savasana. Just... Be Still. The Tribe Sometimes you learn what a studio values before anyone tells you. A huge smile when you walk in. A complimentary mat when you don't have one. And when you want to stay... they make it easy. Small things. Except they aren't. Space & Place Be Yoga is beautiful: Warm wood. Soft green. Natural light. Enormous windows. Little details everywhere. The Shift I arrived after a weekend of doing: Driving. Exploring. Meeting. Moving. Flowing. I walked into a studio called Be Yoga. Took Be Flow. Stayed for Be Still. Field Note: Sometimes being is simply letting this moment be enough.

When I moved to Washington, I was so nervous about finding a new yoga teacher. I was in Vancouver, WA when I finally found a teacher who seemed to do vinyasa yoga. He told me to go up north and there I found Shilpa! She's a spectacular teacher. Patient, kind, grounding, and motivating I am grateful to practice with her on Sunday mornings. When the pandemic began, Shilpa moved her classes to virtual, Zoom live classes. I need these to make sure I do my practice! Otherwise I would not commit one hour to my practice every week. The way she structures her classess incorporate meditation, asanas, strength, stamina, and flexibility. It's also convenient for my partner to do the class with me at home. I highly recommend her classes and I hope you find time to join her.
