I recently attended a somatic practice with Kimmy, and it was an incredibly restorative and reflective experience. Her session, the Somatic Rest: A Nervous System Reset Through the 7 Layers of Rest offered a deeply peaceful space to slow down, reset, and start the year with inner strength. I left feeling grounded and refreshed and made some nice new connections. Highly recommend!! read more

I absolutely love Seeking Space. Since some reviews have been written, they have added an upstairs studio for all non-heated classes, so the class offerings have doubled. Classes are diverse and cover what anyone would need, or 99% of them at least. There is an amazing diversity of instructors, and every one of them that I have had I have are warm, helpful and create well thought out flows. Everyone is happy to answer any and all questions you have. Outside of Kate's Gentle Heated Vinyasa class, I stay away from the heated classes. But I couldn't live without Kristi's Vinyasa, Dana's Gentle Vinyasa, Annie's Strong Slow Vinyasa, and Sunray's Flow and restore classes. They give me focus and make me happy :-). The studio also offers a lot of Yin classes and Sarisvati and Rachel are brilliant guides. Provided equipment is wonderful and always clean. Changing rooms are small, but clean and completely adequate. There is a shower available, and members have a place to store their Mats. There are dots to guide Mat placement in case classes are full, but they allow the space to be utilized to its fullest, and if classes aren't full, you are invited to spread out. Yes, I am a fan. However, there isn't another studio in Southwest that offers as much as Seeking Space when it comes to helping you develop a well-rounded practice. read more

I feel so, so blessed to have this studio in my neighborhood. A wide variety of classes for all preferences and skill levels, a peaceful space, dedicated instructions who are clearly passionate about their work, and an accessible fee structure check all of the boxes. What Seeking Space lacks in size (just one studio space) it makes up for in care & community. I typically attend the yin yoga classes, which are very meditative and have been wonderful for my anxiety and sleep. I also love that the studio offers lunchtime "shred" classes so I can get a strength + cardio workout in without needing a separate gym membership. Seeking Space is truly a one-stop shop for all of my yoga needs, from exercise to meditation to flow. read more

I like what they have done with such a limited space. The classes are challenging and inspiring. The place has a good vibe. Unfortunately the name of the studio is a bit ironic... I seem to be seeking more space. The studio is quite cramped. The cancellation policy is unreasonable. The classes fill up quickly so you have to predict days in advance what you might be feeling. It all leaves me a bit stressed and searching elsewhere. read more

My stars are only based on what I value and look for in a yoga center; it may not match what you value. --I have probably done 1,000+ hours of yoga so look for instructors who put together thoughtful, creative flows that move seamlessly with the breath. A couple of instructors hit the mark here, but many don't. If you're new to yoga you may not even notice. And any yoga is better than no yoga. -- I look for space. But the yoga studio here is small and you will be expected to put your mat on a dot, which is not far from your neighbor. The rebel in me didn't love the dots. You may not mind. -- The studio itself is equally space challenged. So there is a lot of turning sideways and making yourself small to move around between door to changing room. -- There is also little space available in popular classes, like Yin or Alice's classes, so you have to book days in advance. With my busy life, that was not possible. And you will be charged $25+ for a late cancellation. Others may not find this an issue. -- On the plus side, the monthly fee is pretty low! On the other hand, to cancel you must give them 30 days notice. -- There is a diversity of abilities and humans here, which makes it more inclusive than at many studios. On the other hand, I wasn't a fan of all the rules-based signage posted everywhere telling you what's allowed and not allowed. Tonally, it's not that friendly. -- Do LOVE the cold towels at the end of hot classes. Yes to this. -- The carpet in the changing room was dingy and kind of gross to walk on in bare feet. This is a great business to have near by to serve the community. But I ended up driving farther and paying more in the end. It's worth a try those nearby. read more

I moved up to the Portland area this past summer and was in the search of a yoga studio that was reasonably priced with good vibes. This place is it. It's the little things: the yoga mat storage for monthly members, the hand and face towels, the candles and Himalayan salt lamp that sets the mood, and the cold essential oil towels offered at the end of every heated class. I have found my studio, and I am so happy here. read more

They walk the walk and believe in what they teach. Truly wish more companies worked that way. Check them out, you won't regret it. read more

Do you want to feel like you just took a class with Steve Rogers (aka Captain America)? Do you want to actually SMILE while you're working out because the teacher is just so dang positive you can't help yourself? Do you want to walk out feeling stronger and proud of what you just did? Then you need FitCamp with Alex. Do you want a heated (but not too hot) yoga class that really stretches all those muscles? Do you need a teacher that makes it feel like you're taking a class with your best friend? Do you just crave that hour of me-time where your brain and body can connect? Then you need Heated Gentle Vinyasa with Rachel. I spend more time each week with those two than I do almost anyone else! read more

It's evident Rachel and all the instructors at Seeking Space truly care about yoga, community and their work. I appreciate the friendly and approachable attitude of the studio. It absolutely feels like a community versus a yoga studio out for profit, no pretentious vibes. All the instructors are great and have their own style. The studio itself is cute and comfortable. I also like that Seeking Space is inclusive to all. I've felt very comfortable practicing here. read more

Absolutely stellar hot vinyasa experience here! Incredible instructors and a great workout. I also loved the lemon eucalyptus towel they gave me at the end of the session read more

In a time when yoga in Portland is becoming more and more inaccessible, Seeking Space is a breath of fresh air. As a student, I have a very limited income. As an experienced​ yogi, I have high standards. This left me in quite the conundrum when searching for a dynamite studio in my neighborhood. I am just so impressed with every aspect of Seeking Space Yoga. From the lifestyle accommodations​​, studio amenities​​s, class diversity and knowledge and kindness​ of the teachers. It's feeling like kismet to have this studio 4 blocks from my apartment. After only 3 classes, with 3 different instructors, I can say with certainty that this studio is an absolute gem, and I genuinely look forward to settling into​ my new third place. Namaste. read more

This is a great studio. I have been sporadically taking classes for the past few years and am now a member. A'Leesha is my personal favorite instructor for all types of classes - I wish she had more classes right now on the schedule! The studio is always welcoming and clean. The owner, Rachel, is very helpful and also a wonderful instructor. read more

Great instructor and welcoming space. The studio is cosy, has a small changing room, two toilets, and a shower. Their community classes are pretty affordable. The only thing that concerned me was I attended a class before covid shut down and the staff was clearly sick and coughing. Couldn't they had taken precautions and stayed home for safety of others? read more

Beautiful yoga studio with covid safe measures in place. I love taking Rachel's Yin and gentle flow classes. They also have online classes that you can access for 24 hours! read more

this is one of the best studios in town!! Amazing and knowledgeable staff, honoring the origins of yoga while making it fun at the same time. love this place read more

Nice basic studio. Good rotation of instructors and a nice variety of classes. Only complaint is that it's small space with only one studio and one shower. It's rather cramped between classes. My favorite part are the chilled towels after a hot and sweaty class. read more

I drive a full hour to get to my class here, passing dozens of studios on my way, which should tell you a lot. I've been practicing Yoga 25 years, with myriad teachers over those years, and this studio is one of the absolute best I've ever had the joy of attending and well worth my lengthy commute. Wonderful encouraging teachers, challenging classes, beautiful tranquil studio space with the perfect zen vibe, great community feeling with plenty of yoga-related activities like book clubs, sound baths, meditation classes in addition to yoga. Overall: 5 stars plus. Thank you, Seeking Space, for all you do! read more

Wonderful instructors. They do a great new student deal where it's $25 for two weeks unlimited. I got my money's worth. I will be going to get my monthly membership going! read more

I am really loving this yoga space. A friend recommended this studio and I bought a 2-week pass to check it out. I love the location and the class sizes. I tried many different classes and felt welcome in all of them. The instructors were very good at setting the pace of classes and accommodating the students in the room. The space was warm & inviting but not the least bit pretentious or woo-woo. I also enjoyed the fact that class times were so accessible. Most studios cater to the early & late crowds and it is hard for me to find classes that work with my weird schedule. I'm definitely going to become a regular here! read more

As someone who has been a Core Power yogi for years and definitely drinking the Kool-aid, I was pleasantly surprised by the staff and facilities at Seeking Space. The classes are hard, but not so hard that you leave feeling discouraged. There is more of a focus on good form than a typical Core Power class which I appreciate. The class schedule is great and their rates are realistic for someone working a pretty entry-level job. The dressing rooms are a little snug, but if you aren't changing there it's not really that big of an issue. read more

This is a terrific yoga studio. Two of us tried it out this week and we both loved it. A teacher was covering the front desk and warmly welcomed us as new students. Because we were new, she also introduced us to the owner and we had a great chat with her about the space. The class was excellent - great modifications to suit various levels, innovative sequences, and fully engaged students made it a great vibe. Seems like many students were dedicated regulars, including quite a few men. The energy was upbeat and serious about yoga. We liked it so much we attended the next day and had an equally fantastic class. We are looking forward to many more classes and expanding our practices. read more

This is the best studio I have ever found, and I have seen my fair share! Their class schedule is robust, with early, midday, late, even super late/early classes for people who work swing shift. I can fit a class in no matter what is going on with my schedule. I tried out a lot of classes to find my favorites and loved every single teacher I've had class with. This place is the best! read more

Hands down the best yoga studio in Portland. The teachers are amazing, kind, friendly, and always allowing for space to make the practice your own. They have so many different types of classes, I can't recommend Seeking Space highly enough. read more

Great new yoga studio! The space is very inviting, and the vinyasa classes are a perfect blend of meditation and physicality. Highly recommended if you like an active yoga class. read more

Wow! I've been to many yoga studios, but this beautify, serene space is by far the best. The teachers are all incredible, have their own style and know you by name. The heating in the studio is superb and the cool lavender towel after the heat is beyond heavenly. If you are looking for a new yoga home/family - this is the spot! read more
