I took a power yoga class and was a little nervous Intel. I showed up and realized every class is welcoming of all levels. The studio was incredibly clean, including the yoga mat that I borrowed. If you forget your mat, they are available to rent. Props like yoga blocks, yoga, straps, blankets, and bolsters are available at no charge. This studio has a strong community atmosphere, and is not intimidating. I think this is an excellent place for people continuing their practice or just giving yoga a try for the first time.

I stumbled upon the Englewood location of Black Swan Yoga back in July 2021 and had the pleasure of taking Shea's class. Her class not only inspired me to take another class, but to also join BSY's Yoga Teacher Training. BSY's YTT is a 200-hr program that is accredited through Yoga Alliance. During BSY YTT, you'll learn all facets of yoga: history, philosophy, anatomy, spiritualism, meditation, hatha and vinyasa flows, theming classes, the chakra system, trauma in-formed yoga, prenatal yoga and nutrition. BSY's program sets their students up for success and to feel prepared to teach at graduation. Lead teachers Kiana and Sean are extremely knowledgeable on all things yoga and have been teaching yoga for many years. They teach from a place of authenticity and encourage their students to do the same. Other things about BSY Denver: The studios themselves are very clean and they take the proper COVID precautions. Both studios convey a calm/chill vibe from the lighting, to the artwork, to the music played. BSY yoga teachers are warm and welcoming when you enter the studio. They take pride in creating a safe and inclusive space for you to belong! BSY is all about building community, making connections, spreading love, and creating unity. I highly suggest taking a class and asking about their YTT program as soon as possible. You will not regret it.

I love Shotokan karate... Sensei David Gould is a great…read morekarate teacher. I am a brown belt from Orlando Florida ( Kuro Obi Shotokan Karate Dojo) and I travel all around the United States for business. I expended 10 days near Aurora CO for work and I needed to train, I called his dojo asking if I can go to do the classes and he was so nice and positive about it. teaching me to perfect my techniques and polishing my Katas and forms knowing I was coming from a different dojo... i'd liked his way of teaching and I looked at his classes with the kids prior mine... and I can say he is very good explaining and teaching all the karate techniques. Thumbs up 100%. I really like it!!! Oss Sensei thank you so much. Carlos

We love WJJ, a true gem of Aurora! I came across WJJ because my younger son (5 years) had been…read moreasking to take karate lessons. The request led me to recall jiujitsu classes I took in high school and the focus on self defense as opposed to hurting the other party. A friend mentioned that her son had been taking jiujitsu classes since he was 4 years old at a nearby studio that she highly recommended. I looked up WJJ was pleasantly surprised to learn of the affordable starter package for kids. Dr. Quynh made the enrollment process seamless and my son felt at home right away. He loved his first class and was very taken with how one of his classmates received a sticker in honor of how he respected his senseis and mentored his peers. For the second class, I brought my older son (8 years) with me for pick up and he immediately asked if he could also join (he did ). We love the principles of jiujitsu - respect, self control, hard work, and perhaps most importantly for children, delay of gratification - all foundational lessons that will shape my children's outlook and work ethic for years to come. We adore the instructors Dr. Quynh, Coaches Jalen and Charles, and Professor Nobou (5th in the world for his weight class!). They are knowledgable, skilled, patient, encouraging, and always make class fun for little ones. They do this while being firm, maintaining a safe environment, and employing consistent approaches for teaching children about self-discipline. Now we are 6 weeks and two kids in, and my husband is considering joining at the ripe young age of 41! If you are at all considering this for your children, try out the starter package. You wont regret it!

I can honestly say that Professor Nobuo and his team of instructors have successfully created a balanced culture for the seasoned hobbyists and fierce competitors of this gentle art.

As far as this…read moreplace goes, it wasn't right for me but the people there where very kind and welcoming and I appreciated their openness towards me. On the other hand, I don't think I was able to grasp on and learn anything during the class because it wasn't very structured and we didn't do any exercises that would build up to some sort of combination or form. Instead a lot of what we did were improvisation and I didn't have enough knowledge to even do improv of moves. I was also confused about who the instructor of the class was because it looked as if two people were running the class. It was nice to try this place out and have a free run at it but I wanted something that was structured and had a more systemic way of doing things. I didn't wanna pay a lot for something that didn't have structure to it, so if you are looking for something that's more open minded and improv, this place might be for you!
