Urban Om is a small gem right next to the main railway station in Stockholm. One of the founders is from New York and many of the guest teachers are from all over the globe, which gives a nice feeling of opening towards the visitors. All day long people come and go, taking part in classes, receive sessions and hanging out with friends, gracefully serviced by the reception and the karma crew. The program offers a wide variety of classes with (just some examples): vigorous Osho dynamic morning meditation, different yoga styles, chakra dance and silent sitting mindfulness practice. It's simply a great place to be. Check it out for yourself! read more

Urban OM - A friend of mine posted this on her Facebook wall. It just shows the way to Urban Om. Come, come, yet again, come! - Yoga Near Me - Stockholm, Alberta

So, I tried this place out with a Groupon. They were offering a months membership at a discount. I'm happy with what I got for the price, and I think even the full price is reasonable considering what you get. There is a sauna and a nice locker room (I do wish it was a little bigger and had a shower curtain, I'm not as brave as the Swedish women who shower freely together). Sometimes the locker rooms can get a bit full and there is only one mirror that's usually occupied. The staff has been super accommodating and nice. Good customer service is important to me! Booking classes is easy and convenient through the website. I really think if your a yogi you will love this place. The classes themselves have been mostly good. I first took a "therapeutic yoga" class thinking it was more like muscle therapy, but it was definitely more like mental therapy... Stuff got a little weird. Everyone was moaning and breathing out so much it felt like I was having a stretch in the middle of an orgy on the subway in July. They could definitely use a little better air circulation if their going to keep having everyone share smells of what they just ate for lunch. That class got a little too "spiritual" for me. But, I still really like the place because the Flow yoga is pretty on point. However, they do tend to do some pretty advanced moves in there and do not offer modifications for all of them. It's like you just have to know them already (i know some, but not all). They also do not have very many levels of difficulty in their classes either, like I've seen at most other places. It's straight from yoga basics to full on flow yoga balancing on your head stuff. Needless to say, a lot of these sporty swedes could hack it, but I'm starting out again after quite a few years and found that standing on my head is just not going to happen at this moment in time. So overall, this place is good. I just feel like I need to try our a few more (maybe more of a sporty type of Pilates and yoga together in a studio) to make a judgment call of what I need personally. I'm just not into all that "free yourself, water, fire, spirit" stuff. If your like me you might find it a bit too extreme. I would stay away from the meditations and go more for the stretching classes. read more

Urban OM is really a true yoga studio. Just by entering the facilities one can feel the calm yet inviting energy. The lobby/hang out area is cozy and free yogi tea and ginger water is offered. They offer variety of different classes and styles, including Vinyasa, Kundalini and Yin/Restorative. There are two yoga halls and one smaller meditation room where active meditations are being held daily. The place have really succeeded in creating a complete experience. However, the best thing with Urban OM, and I guess any great yoga studio is it's teachers. They are very experienced, with loving hearts and happily helps out and answer questions after class about the practice. I was asked the other day to say who my favorite teacher was, and I ended up saying four names =) I've brought several friends over the past 14 months, and they all love the place! As someone who had had the authentic yoga experience in Thailand, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get that back home. But I was wrong! UrbanOM is definitely the real deal, and also strives to keep updating and evolving as the science and wisdom of yoga naturally makes progress. If you're looking for a yoga studio where you can feel at home, while you take care of your body, mind and soul - then Urban OM is definitely the place to be! read more

Great yoga teachers and a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Perhaps not the widest range of different types of yoga being ofered; but on the other the classes hold a very high standard, and they offer a variety of meditaion classes every day. You can easily spend a couple of hours chilling out while sipping on a complimentary cup of tea after your class. read more
