I am visiting from out of town and thrown off my daily meditation/yoga practice. Thankfully I was…read moreable to stop in and join a morning class. Everyone working, as well as other students, are kind, talkative and welcoming. The energy at this little studio is positive and uplifting. I feel reset and whole again. I wish I had been staying closer and could have taken more classes in this community. There's really no other community like this. Grateful for the time. Sat nam.

I really feel at home in New York, Since I moved to the West Coast, I found a couple of places,…read morethat take me to a similar experience. But last week in NY, I took a wonderful kundalini yoga class at RA MA, in NY, and I loved it!!

AMAZING!! I have…read morestopped yoga for a few years and just moved to New York so thought I will try Atthena's class and it was a great decision. Atthena is very attentive, corrects your posture/pose and her classes will help you feel longer, aligned and clear minded. I definitely recommend her classes no matter what your level is at. Very positive experience.

Atthena made me fall in love with practicing yoga. I never…read morethought I will enjoy it this much! I started last August and have improved tremendously. Atthena really challenges you and is not afraid to help you push deeper into your stretches. Each class is different and I am always learning something new. I am beginning to find my own flow and have gained a lot of strength and flexibility!

Afterward, my body feels like energy is free to surge through it. It's unlike any other massage I've experienced. And the ambiance of her studio is completely relaxing. Liz is a total pro! I'm definitely going back for more!

The plan in flexible. It teaches you how foods affect you. I used to feel bloated most of the day and could not figure out why. The first thing in my personalized plan was not to have milk, you know what? The bloating went away. The second thing is you see how fruits are so important and filling! I would recommend this highly as it is a flexible program and you definitely will feel better and help you make better HEALTHIER choices!

After a few days, things started to clear up and, since then, new opportunities have appeared. I am very satisfied. Viktoria is professional and extremely helpful. She answered all my questions.

I am so glad I met Liza. She is one of the best instructors I've ever encountered. She is…read moreextremely patient (believe me, because I am a slow learner when it comes to fitness!) and very detail oriented, making sure your alignments and postures are done correctly. As a yoga beginner who has been to a class here and there in the past 4 years, I never learned the proper yoga poses and techniques even while taking the group classes. Luckily I found Liza through Lifebooker when she offered a 3 pack of private yoga sessions. After all these years, I've been doing things wrong without knowing. I highly recommend Liza as a yoga instructor - whether you are a beginner or a pro.

I've known Liza for many years now but I just started practicing with her a few months ago. It has…read morebeen an amazing experience thus far. She does everything to accommodate her clients and make sure that they're comfortable with what they're doing. She adjust your body when necessary, checks to make sure that you're okay, confirms that you're breathing and yet challenges you when she thinks you're capable of doing something. She's extremely optimistic and keeps me smiling and happy throughout my practice. She's been a huge help in building my lung capacity and muscle strength. She's helped me alter what used to be a very sloppy down-down and other poses and I've made drastic changes over the past few months thanks to her!

I had a lovely experience at Ishta Yoga with Stephen! The space is clean, calm, and well-located…read more(do note there are stairs -- unsure if there's an accessible entrance!). I appreciate all the natural light that came in over something more harsh like overhead lights. I tried out their restorative yoga class and had a great time. Stephen's voice and personality is so calming and genuine! He also helped adjust me during an exercise which I appreciated, as it was my first ever restorative yoga session. During the class, he also shared some interesting facts about yoga as a practice and the cultures from which it originated. Unfortunately, I bruised my forehead a bit because the blanket didn't quite cushion my forehead properly against the block unless I moved my head up and squashed my nose, and we remained in that pose for 10+ mins, but that was my only qualm while in the class. After the class, all mats and blocks were wiped down prior to being returned to their place :). One thing I wish I would have known is that there's a mat rental fee ($4 I believe), which I didn't previously know about and felt a bit out of the ordinary in my experience? However, because it was my first time, they offered one to me for free without me having to ask. Very kind customer service! While the yoga room itself is very spacious, the check-in area is itty bitty and I could see it getting cramped during peak hours, but I kinda wanted to get in and out haha! I'd recommend not hanging around too long before or after class to avoid cramping. I recommended a friend try out Ishta Yoga for herself to see how she liked it too. She informed me she tried out an "All Levels" class with Douglas. She mentioned him being supportive, calm, and patient, though she didn't quite know what was going on regarding the terminology. Overall, I'd love to do more restorative yoga here when I can find the time! Note to self: bring your own blanket and mat!
