I'm sure that the only reason you don't see more 5-star reviews for Yoga Vermont is because the…read morestudents are so blissed out from class that they don't have time for writing Yelp reviews. I've taken classes with both Scott and Kathy, who have quite different approaches to but equally deep knowledge of Ashtanga yoga. Kathy is very chatty and very hands-on (with those who wish it), with plenty of compliments and suggestions for pose modifications for each of her students. Scott is a quieter sort, and while he frequently offers verbal amendments, doesn't do much hands-on assistance. Kathy seems more apt to encourage her students to modify a pose based on what they need, whereas Scott seems to encourage students to engage the pose as it was intended. (For example, I tend to brace my arm against my thigh during triangle: Kathy would encourage my use of triangle as a twist, wheres Scott recommended I instead brace my hand on my shin so I could reach higher with my other hand. Both totally correct approaches, it seems to me: just dependent on where you put your emphasis.) Whichever approach you prefer, you'll find excellent teaching at Yoga Vermont!

I can't say enough good things about this studio. Kathy is absolutely fantastic; she is my favorite…read moreof any Ashtanga instructor I've encountered. She's down to earth, fun, kind, and patient, and her knowledge of the practice is just incredible. The other Ashtangis were welcoming, too, and so inspiring :) I began working with intermediate series here last fall and my practice developed so quickly thanks to Kathy, Leo, and Scott. I broke my back in a snowboarding accident only a couple months after I discovered Yoga Vermont and I really missed practicing there --- if you are looking for a studio (albeit, Ashtanga isn't for everyone, but this isn't a review for that!), this is your place.

As someone with yoga training myself, I am a little more particular about the kind of class I like to take. And this makes finding Mary's classes all the more special. When there, I can go inwards and just be on my mat, knowing I have a teacher who is looking out for my alignment in a gentle way and one who invites modifications and self-care. And I love having her interweaving of the yamas/niyamas, pranayama, and chakra awareness into each class. Highly recommended!

What makes this studio superior is, basically, the teachers and the students. Christine is a natural teacher; patient, incisive, caring. And she knows her anatomy as well as any doctor; she'll take a quick look at your posture, and then correctly guess that you took a 3-mile hike up a steep grade two days ago. The she'll suggest a subtle workaround for those tight calves. And the students: they're serious. Most of them are regulars, and the atmosphere once class begins is one of concentration (but not solemnity; there's regular bouts of laughter, incited mostly by christine). Throw in a lovely, light-drenched studio with views of the green mountains, a few friendly dogs, and $110 for a 10-class pass, and you've got the best yoga studio in the state.
