I was staying in Le Marais during my trip in Paris, and I wanted to check out multiple yoga studios…read morein the area. I found Modo Yoga Paris by Google searching local spots. They had a great drop-in deal of 19 Euros for the first class. Mat, mat towel, and shower towel were included for the first class as well. The yoga instructor was very nice and friendly. When she checked me in she asked me what language I preferred, and she spoke English to me while she got me acquainted to the space. Mod Yoga was a lot bigger than I thought. It had a few rooms - I think I saw a total of 4 rooms - for practicing yoga and perhaps other fitness oriented styles like pilates. The locker room was big. I would even say probably the biggest one I've seen, and the first I've seen that included showers. I took a vinyasa class at 9:30am. The room was heated, and the class was full. The teacher taught the entirety of the class in French, which was totally fine since I understand French a little and was able to follow along easily by listening to Sanskrit and watching her demo. I had a very wonderful experience, and I would certainly come back to this studio next time I'm in the area.

It was in Toronto, Canada where I was first introduced to the Modo (Moksha) Yoga community and…read morewhere I first started practicing with them. Ever since I took my first class with Modo Yoga I knew it was the right place for me. When Modo Yoga came to Paris, I can't even begin to explain how excited I was! This was my chance to get back into my practice, and pick up where I left off after leaving Canada 6 years ago. Doing yoga in a hot room is definitely a bit different if you're used to practicing at normal ambient temperatures, but I truly believe it has so many benefits. These are the reasons why I love practicing in the hot room: 1. Improved Flexibility. The heat warms up your muscles, allowing you to have better range of motion/flexibility, ultimately allowing you to move at a quicker pace to more advanced postures 2. Breathing. The heat actually challenges your breathing, making it more audible and more importantly, making you more aware of it. 3. Mindfulness and acceptance. You learn to accept yourself, when you're drenched in sweat, when you have a tough time doing a posture as well as your neighbour. You become mindful of your thoughts and your body's limitations, the drama of the ego - accept and let it go. 4. Meditation and relaxation. The more I practice, the more my body takes control and my mind is freed. And the these are the reasons why I love Modo Yoga Paris! 1. Exceptional, inspiring teachers and staff! They always make me feel so at home, exude so much positivity and even after such a short time since they opened I have this feeling of knowing some of the staff for a very long time :) 2. Feeling part of a special community. It's like Modo Yoga has a filter at the front door, only positive energy and lovely people seem to walk through! 3. The ethos of Modo Yoga and how they truly embody their 7 pillars. Thanks for making my days all that much brighter!

I moved from New York in 2014 and really missed my Hot Vinyasa courses. There are many Bikram…read moreoptions in Paris, but like most students, I need other types of yoga and exercise to target other muscle groups. It took me a while to finally get to Yogafactory, but I have since become a regular here. Classes range in intensity and are conducted in French. If you don't understand French, you can follow the other students, but you lose out on the adjustments and encouragements in the dialogue. The room is heated, but not as high as the temperatures in Bikram or in Hot Yoga Studios in NY. The studios are clean and fully equipped with showers, lockers, and hairdryers but you do have to bring your own soap or bring/rent a towel. The instructors have always been very helpful and open to answering my questions. I would have to say that in France, instructors generally do not physically adjust students very much, but they will do so verbally and some have been more hands on. The level of ability of the students here is also above average for the city as I have found other studios to be too easy. I would recommend this studio to anyone who has a regular Vinyasa practice. For French speakers, the range in levels offers a great introduction. They have really challenged me over the past few months and helped me develop my core and arm strength through inversions and lifts. And I am far more well versed in anatomy in French now as well! Consider French lessons a secondary benefit!

Aim at classes in the mid am or mid pm to avoid hi class occupancy. The studio is cute, and well designed, the staff is super nice and looking after your well being. Don't hesitate to talk to them if any issue where to come up. Prices are fair an the professionalism of the staff is there which is rare in Parisian yoga practices. Indeed you can sense that their original background comes from Ballet Dancing, and trust me, if you can sense it, that also means the intensity level can get up there if you aim for the hard classes.
