Willow Gardens is truly my happy place! ‍ I've been practicing yoga for many years here, and there is something incredibly special about this studio. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed, supported, and part of a community. The instructors are knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely care about your practice. I love the variety of classes--from Ashtanga and Hot 26 to Vinyasa, Barre, Pilates, and restorative options--so there is always something that fits what my body needs that day. What I appreciate most is that Willow Gardens feels like so much more than just a place to work out. It's a place where I can challenge myself, reset, recharge, and leave feeling better than when I walked in. After all these years of practicing yoga, finding a studio and community that feels like home means so much. I'm incredibly grateful to have Willow Gardens right here in Buda. If you're looking for a welcoming studio with wonderful instructors, a great variety of classes, and an amazing community, I can't recommend them enough! read more

Cute little yoga studio in Buda. They offer a variety of heated and non-heated classes. I love that I was able to come here on ClassPass since I don't live in the area. I took the 6:30pm hot yoga class and then the 8pm candlelight yin. Both were wonderful and I feel amazing leaving. I sweated, stretched, breathed, and relaxed. All the good things. I needed it! My body feels so much better right now. Thanks WGY for having a clean space with friendly staff :) and welcoming me to practice as a guest in the studio. Hopefully I can squeeze in another class before heading back to Arizona! Fingers crossed. read more

I attended the candlelight yin class at 8pm and it was very soothing. Full of really good stretches and the instructor, Ms. Claudia was very helpful and nice. Beware, if you're attending a class after a hot yoga session as the room is a bit stuffy but after awhile it airs out and is comfortable. Although the studio was full, everyone had enough room to move around and there was enough materials for all to use. read more

i took the candlelit yin thing with greg as my first ever yoga class and it was very relaxing, he was really soothing and helps u feel comfortable! i was a little late and he was very understanding. absolutely loved the experience and the studio is nice, just runs a little warm. i was bummed using the free first class disqualified me for the new member package, i hadn't really considered it would but that's my bad (last minute booking lol)--keep that in mind if you wanted the package :) read more

Super cute studio inside a small outdoor plaza in buda with a restaurant. It's nice place to look at the sunset , all kinds of yoga and great class read more

Willow Gardens Yoga - Yoga Near Me - Buda, Texas

The studio is small but very well thought out and relaxing. I got good vibes from the other students. The teacher made me super uncomfortable though.. maybe it was just an off day for her but,, she asked a lot of questions about my practice in front of all that were there. I would not recommend the Detox and Sound for beginner's especially! I'm well versed in moving my breath and not making poses a competition; That and the fantastically hot guy next to me helped to make the best of it. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. My beloved yoga instructor who was also voted BEST FITNESS INSTRUCTOR was FORED THROUGH EMAIL!!! It's so unprofessional & disrespectful especially from a wellness studio. When the owner Rae would come into the same class as me she was always doing her own thing, going faster, going deeper, going longer like she had something to prove to all of us and honestly it wasn't a great energy bc it made us all off in our flow in class. Ray has shown her true colors to a lot of community members & so has her husband who is threatening every instructor they fire. I will not be going back to support Ray or the Willow garden studio because of their actions. They're a multi level ponzy scheme and don't do their due diligence to ensure all their studios have the right marketing and advertising to have successful & full classes. It's not just the teachers they take the money from and teach to go on and work for them to do in their own- you're a business owner ACT LIKE ONE. read more

I started coming here with my class pass and really enjoyed the classes I attended! Each teacher teaches with their own flair which makes it hard to know what a class will be like going into it for the first time but I also really love how one studio holds such different yoga experiences. Super welcoming space - highly recommend for all levels! read more

Love this yoga studio. Classes are usually pretty small. Equipment is clean. And teachers are nice and knowledgeable .

Willow Gardens opened a second location in April, in Lockhart, TX, which had no yoga/pilates studios. The array of classes is impressive for a single-room studio, with multiple styles and levels of yoga, pilates, fitness, and wellness every day of the week. I was a longtime y/p practitioner before covid put the kibosh on live classes, but now my practice is revved up, better than ever. It's heartening to see so many local residents take part - many of whom had never practiced before. It's become a community of friendly and committed people seeking to improve their health and well-being. All ages, all fitness levels. And the teachers are amazing! So knowledgeable. No pressure, just encouragement and fun. I love Willow Gardens! read more

My friend has been coming to Willow Garden for at least a few months. She invited me to try a class for free to see what I think as I have been recently incorporating yoga into my fitness routine. You can't do muay thai forever.....or maybe you can. I don't know yet. My first class was on a Sunday afternoon and it was a Flow class that was about 75 minutes long. I enjoyed the class and decided to sign up the following week for their newcomer special. It is $20 for unlimited yoga for 10 days. My current plan is to try different classes with different instructors in order to get my feel for the studio. Overall the classes and instructors that I have attended have been great. The instructors are nice and offer alternative poses/positions for people who can't do certain poses. They have blocks, straps, and blankets for props that are used sometimes while in class. I have become a big yoga block fan since I am not flexible due to years of injuries and not stretching. read more

Willow Gardens Yoga Lockhart has been an amazing addition to our community. Having taken over 275 classes, I have had the opportunity to practice with most of the instructors - all amazing - all favorites. I want to give a shout out to Karrie Sheehan. She does a magnificent job of tailoring her classes to the students' needs, making all feel welcome, and providing feedback for growth. And, she has some of the best play lists! read more

I'm one of those people... the people I passed judgement on before I became one of them! "Those People" in this case are the ones who state that practicing yoga consistently changed their life. I started going to this studio about 2 years ago, maintaining downward dog for any amount of time was mentally and physically challenging. I'm slowly progressing and feel comfortable here. It appears that a lot of thought is put into programming to maximize the variety of classes in a one room studio. Rae is adding fun, novel and relaxing components to her programming quickly: live drums, Thai Massage workshops -and singing bowls might be coming to Buda. Teachers and community are gentle and positive. read more

Absolutely the best yoga studio and teachers I have ever had the opportunity to learn from and practice with. I have been a member of this space for 4 years and seen many changes. From owners to teachers to students, it still remains my favorite yoga studio in the USA! The workshops, the special holiday classes, and the love shared here make willow gardens in Buda, Texas a homey, comfy, personal studio. We welcome visitors and locals anytime, so come share the love with us! read more

Willow Gardens Yoga - Weekend workshop inversion fun! - Yoga Near Me - Buda, Texas

The vibes are good here! Staff was helpful answering all my questions & super friendly. I really enjoyed my first Friday 10am hot fusion flow. I got exactly what I needed & woke up the next day feeling sore but refreshed. I recommend bringing your own mat & towel but everything else they have to borrow (blocks, bands, weights). With so many classes there is something for everyone. Hot Pilates is next on my list! read more

I've been attending classes at Willow Gardens for a little over a year and must say this is a true gem in Buda. The teachers are great at working with new and experienced students and always make everyone feel comfortable. They are not only very experienced with multiple types of yoga, but are also awesome teachers. There are multiple types of classes at various times with each teacher so it's easy to pick a class type and time that meets my needs. The studio is professionally run, always clean and a very comfortable environment. There are mats, blankets, blocks and straps available to all students. I've attended classes at multiple yoga studios and found that Willow Gardens Hot Yoga is the best. Whether you have never been in a yoga studio or have been practicing for years, I recommend you give this place a try! read more

I was considering using this studio but after my friend shared her disappointing experience, I've decided against it. She said the instructor was completely unprofessional. Instead of gently correcting students in the practice, she would openly criticize them in front of the entire class. It made my friend, and the rest of the class, uncomfortable. My friend was forced to listen to the rude instructor pick apart another person instead of paying attention and focusing on her own practice, My friend said she is definitely not going back. I expect my yoga practice to be calming and stress-free, so I'll be waiting for Buda to open a more professional yoga studio. read more

This studio is amazing. Everyone makes you feel right at home. Stacy's 26 express class is the best!!

Yay... Yoga day! Willow Gardens Yoga has the best classes! I love the way they incorporate meditation and sound healing into their yoga classes! My yin teacher Laura Kay Gale is even incorporating Chinese medicine lessons into our classes. Oh, and their retreats are the best too! ‍‍ read more

I started coming to Willow Gardens this past summer and hesitant on getting a membership because I wasn't sure how dedicated I would be. I feel in love with Gil's Saturday ashtanga class and pulled the trigger! Let me just say that I am so impressed and proud of how consistent I have been able to be with the variety of classes and instructors. It's more than just a yoga studio, it's a community as well. I am starting to see familiar faces, becoming stronger and more flexible. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming and all of the teachers are truly passionate about their practice which is so inspiring. I would highly recommend this studio regardless of experience level. read more

Willow Gardens is a wonderful yoga, pilates, and barre studio with great instructors. There is yoga for everyone from beginners to advanced yogis alike. There is a wonderful community feeling at Willow Gardens where I have met many friends, which is great because I am new to Buda. I would highly recommend anyone interested in yoga check out their class offerings on the website. read more

Do not recommend as a beginner. The owner yelled at me during class and it was just shocking. Unless you are a pro do NOT go here. I sent an email to her the next day and she was so rude, blaming her actions on me. She hopes I can find a studio where I can do what I want. I guess at this studio you do as you are told no questions asked. In response You can see her attitude in her response. It is all about her not her students. And I would not have joined for 6 months to sell you 2 water bottles which the owner actually never paid for. Geesh read more

I've practiced yoga off and on throughout my life, but it had been years since I last took a class. I jumped back into yoga at Willow Gardens a few months ago when a friend invited me to try out Ashtanga with her. At first, I was a little intimidated by the idea of practicing in a group again, especially in a heated room, but the instructors at this studio have been so encouraging. They remind us that wherever we are in our practice is where we're supposed to be. In addition to their variety of yoga classes, I've also tried out Willow Gardens' Pilates, Barre, and meditative sound baths. It's great that they offer classes at all times of the day, plus a bunch of virtual options when I can't make it in person. I've been having so much fun exploring these different kinds of practices and discovering what my body can do in such a caring environment. read more

Love Willow Gardens Hot Yoga Studio in Buda,TX! The Hot26 classes are the best but you can't go wrong with any classes, Ashtanga, Flow, Vin/Yin...Ash offers here it all at this beautiful studio. Best part is the community, and how good you feel after each class!! read more

Under new ownership, WG has an awesome welcoming vibe! Raelynn Haynes, owner and teacher is a super fun, upbeat yogi who has expertise in yoga as well as having her PhD in some sciencey stuff! She is building a wonderful community and welcomes ALL! She and her Juicy Partner Janine have started a juice business and their stuff is amazing!! if you have never tried yoga or it has been a while... I recommend highly stopping back in. Meet the new owner and try a class or two! I took a 90 min class today and it was great! read more

Willow Gardens is a great studio, offering a range of classes, teachers, and perspectives. I've been a student off and on for several years. I tore my ACL and MCL earlier this year doing another sport, and (after a certain amount of rehab) have really benefited from a renewed focus on balanced strength and flexibility at Willow Gardens. New goal - a perfect yoga handstand. Wish me luck! read more

Yoga is a huge part of my life; I've been practicing consistently for about 10 years. This studio is a nice addition to the Buda Main Street area as it offers a place for us in the area to practice nearby, and not have to travel to Austin or San Marcos. This being said, I didn't renew my membership as instructors frequently subbed for one another, making it hard for me to attend a class with my preferred instructors. Additionally, the teaching styles varied greatly between the instructors; it seemed that there wasn't a cohesive teaching methodology serving as a platform for all of the instructors within the studio. read more

In the past I would find a gym or exercise activity and stick with it for a while eventually moving on to the next after seeing little results, boredom or cost. I became a member of Willow Gardens Hot Yoga Studio in Buda a little over a year ago. I was a beginner and skeptical of the whole "hot yoga thing." It was definitely a challenge but the hard work paid off. With Ash's guidance I am still going strong 14 months later. I feel stronger, look leaner, changed some of my unhealthy ways and feel amazing. I look forward to every class and am so happy Willow Gardens Hot Yoga is in my life! read more

Willow gardens is a very clean and unique yoga studio offering such a wide variety of classes to the small town buda residents. The instructor education and experience level is phenomenal. I enjoy the comfort of experienced teachers mixed with students from beginner to advanced. Always welcoming and incredibly positive atmosphere. read more

From the first time walking into this studio it felt warm and welcoming. All of the teachers are kind, friendly and knowledgeable. The class schedule offers a variety of yoga styles and times. As a new resident of Texas and to the Austin area I immediately felt like part of the yoga community at Willow Gardens, so much so that I wanted to become a yoga instructor here. The owner Raelynn is an amazing teacher and is doing so many great things to create an inviting and encouraging environment. I highly recommend you checking this studio out. read more

The owner, Ash Willow walked into class and asked people to practice outside. After obtaining lukewarm consent from about half of the class, she decided that class would take place outside. There was a photographer there taking pictures without obtaining consent. One of the other students mentioned how they had taken video before without asking for permission. When I decided a few minutes into class that this was not the experience I signed up for, the owner made a snide remark about how I should have brought my stuff with me when I asked to be let back into the studio to retrieve my belongings. read more

I'm so happy to become a recent member here! After months of doctors visits for rapid heart and shortness of breath, I realized my stressful life was affecting my health. So I joined this studio and go twice a week and already am seeing improvements... it literally saved me. I'm excited to see where I am with a few more months of practice! read more

Willow Gardens Hot Yoga Studio is offering an introductory offer now... 10 days of unlimited classes for $20. I purchased this deal and have attended five classes this week. I have no experience with yoga and am not particularly fit. But I'm ready for a life change. Strengthening my core muscles, finding some stress relief. I am so impressed. The studio is beautiful and kept very clean and tidy. Ashley provides support and encouragement to beginners and leads everyone to their max capability with good form. If you are interested in trying out the classes I highly recommend it!! I'm stronger already. I will be signing up as a member. Looking forward to healthier days ahead!! read more

Recently I moved to Buda TX from a much larger city. I was very happy to find such a clean, modern facility with friendly staff in such a small town. The variety of offerings is amazing, and I was previously practicing HOT YOGA, and now I am taking advantage of the Pilates, Hot Pilates, and Meditation Classes. In a few months I already feel like I have been accepted into the Willow Gardens Family. I also like that the classes have a nice mix of men and women, older and younger. I also look forward to the changing monthly schedule, because it keeps me from getting bored. My wife has been joining me in class, and she has enjoyed the classes. read more

Absolutely a life changing experience! If you're looking to change your body, mind and soul, this is the place to do it! The environment is calm, welcoming and the teachers radiate love for all of their students. It doesn't matter if you're new to yoga or not, there's a class for you! Not gonna lie, Hot 26 is where it's at though. It's my jam read more

This is the very best yoga studio ever!!! The instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful. I started without any knowledge of yoga at all. I also had 4 unsuccessful knee surgeries and could barely walk. Through hard work, dedication and the excellent instruction of my yoga teachers, I have made a great recovery. There are many different types of yoga offered at Willow Gardens-and that is what makes it so unique. Some classes are hot and hard and some are more relaxed. Everyone can find a great class at this studio!!! Also-THE SPACE!! It is bright and airy and so inviting!!! WGHY has changed my life!!! I love this place!!! read more

About six months ago, I decided to give this place a try. I had only done yoga at my local gym, so I was a little intimidated to do yoga at a studio. Right off the bat Ash made me feel welcomed and relaxed. Now six months later, I wish I could come everyday. I love yoga so much. It has helped with my sciatic nerve. I can now run with no pain. It has also helped with my stress. Nothing like sweating the stress awaying. I would recommend this place to anyone! read more

I love this yoga studio! I have gone a couple of times now and will be going a lot more. The instructors are helpful, and make you feel welcomed to be there! I am very thankful we have Willow Gardens in Buda. I really appreciate the different options they give you in each class to take all levels into consideration. read more

I had never done yoga before and decided after 2 years after the birth of my last child I needed to do something. I showed up for Saturday class at 10am not even knowing that bikram meant hot yoga but I was welcomed and encouraged from the start. I loved it so much I signed up for the 60 classes in 60 days challenge and after completing that I was hooked! I went from zero to hundred overnight but couldn't have done it without being open to receive instruction. That's the beauty of yoga, it's the same for everyone even though we all look different because of where we are at in our journey. read more

I took advantage of the introductory offer in February of this year and have not looked back since! I had never done yoga before, and quite frankly I thought yoga was some boring meditation thing that would never interest me! My daughter pushed me to try it for almost a year and here I am today, completely hooked! Yoga has changed my life! Not only have I lost a lot of weight, but I also no longer have the need blood pressure medication! I also have a totally different outlook on life as well! I must say as a beginner I was intimidated at the thought of going. Lucky for me, the first hot yoga class I attended was taught by the owner Ash. She made me feel welcome instantly! Ash, as well as all of the other instructors at Willow Gardens, are all very quick to point out alternate things that beginners can do until they become more familiar with the poses, etc. Everyone that practices at the center is pretty much in a different phase of learning, but it really doesn't matter! Everyone is so focused on their own practice, there is no time for anyone to pay any mind to what you are doing on your mat. The instructors do pay close attention however, making sure that they are assisting you with proper form, providing tips, and definitely letting you know what you can do to not only improve, but also to be sure that you don't injure yourself by not being mindful of your form. I would expect nothing less from any of the instructors at Willow Gardens and appreciate the help and encouragement they provide every day! Willow Gardens is a great place that gives you that great community feel. If you are considering making yoga a part of your life, I would highly recommend coming to Willow Gardens! I am thankful every day that I made this choice! read more
