Their business practices aren't friendly and don't serve all yoga students in a happy loving manner. I signed up for the $20 one week 2 class tryout membership. I only did one class as my schedule would only accommodate one. Then I signed up for a free class and was blocked out of it three days after the tryout expired. I wasn't going to complain but also went to a class that was jammed packed with students. read more

Just took a beautiful class with Rashida E. at the Glover Park Studio. Her deep, embodied knowledge and sweet class was a gift this rainy Sunday morning! Thank you! read more

I attended Yoga District's teacher training. If I had it to do again, I'd go to a different studio. There are so many reasons the YD teacher training program is the lowest price option in the area. It really shouldn't be part of the Yoga Alliance accreditation program. Yoga District was the least professional training environment I've ever experienced. Training materials were provided late or not at all. Instructors were confused about when and where they were supposed to be and what they were on point to teach the trainees. Trainees were forced to read the materials to each other, like in elementary school. Trainees were expected to clean the studio, bathrooms, and do the studio's laundry. Yoga District has a "no animal products in the studio" rule that was not communicated to trainees in advance, making meal planning very challenging. Several people had pre-prepared a week's worth of meals for the training that went to waste. It was funny when the kundalini teacher use a real sheep skin mat. The people who teach the public yoga classes at Yoga District are not well treated or well paid. There are lovely teachers at Yoga District, but the company itself, is selfishly managed. The employees seemed burned out and resentful. The owner, Jasmine, lives in Europe and isn't really engaged. I'm just so glad I never have to see Jayanti again!!! read more

Outstanding resource, great experiences! So pleased this was near my visiting residence. I attended a couple of midday classes that were perfect for my needs. Excellent, skillful, caring instructors. read more

This is such a great little studio in the neighborhood just a few blocks from my house. Like a previous reviewer said, it does not have all the bells and whistles. You will not find cucumber mint water in the corner or a rack of $90 yoga apparel being sold. What you will find are really great instructors, that know their stuff, at a reasonable price. I have been coming to this studio a few times a week for a few months now and I love it. I usually go to the gentle and flow yoga classes taught my Hayley Ann. She is an awesome instructor that takes her time to break down things down instead of rushing through class...None of these classes are intimidating which is good for people who are at the beginner or intermediate level. NOTE: This studio can be a bit tricky to find your first time....it is located right next to a wine shop in the building across the street from Sweetgreen. read more

Great morning class with Akiko! I came to D.C. to visit a friend, and looked up a few different yoga studios I might be able to go to within walking distance, and this seemed to be the closest. I wasn't impressed with the inside of the studio - it was very small and the ceiling was a bit lower than I'm usually comfortable with - but they had cubbies for shoes, and storage for our belongings farther inside. One plus that I didn't expect - I'd brought a thin travel mat with me to put on top of a rental (for a bit of additional cushion), but the flooring here was actually soft/springy enough that I didn't need the extra mat! The flooring was a great surface to practice on. I really enjoyed the class with Akiko, though. She did such a wonderful job detailing how and where we should be feeling the poses, and her adjustments were amazing! I could definitely feel the difference from before and after, and she took some time afterwards to answer my questions and help me with some additional demonstrations. It was a very basic class, but I really worked for it. If I'm ever in the area again I would definitely come back. read more

FINALLY! A yoga studio in the Glover Park/Cathedral Heights neighborhood. I've been going to Yoga District on and off for 4 years, and am so enthused that they opened a studio in my neighborhood. It was only a matter of time - since Hot Yoga left Cathedral Heights last year, there was a definite void around here. This Yoga District is bright, open, clean, but only one studio. They have one class at a time, but have a pretty diverse offering of classes at a variety of times during the day. When I'm leaving early at work, I can catch a 5:15 class on my way home, or when I'm unable to sneak out early, the 6:30 classes are perfect. There are also 8pm classes that allow me to go home and change before I walk to the studio. Yoga District is the most affordable studio that I've been to in DC, and although you might not vibe with every teacher, since there are so many different kinds of classes and teachers to try out, you are sure to find a class or teacher that you love. If you buy a pass for Yoga District, you can use it at any of their locations within the district. read more

We are so lucky to have an affordable and welcoming yoga studio in Glover Park! There is a wide range of classes to choose from but my favorite is Kundalini, a harder to find yoga practice. The instructors at Yoga District have always been down to earth, inviting and knowledgable. And the class sizes are always comfortable, never super crowded. You should try a class here! read more

Wow. So I'm visiting DC from NYC, found this studio via Yelp, visited the website and noticed that this studio was the only one in the area to be open late on a Sunday, and with a 7:30-8-45 Kundalini Yoga class, so that's great. I had to unfortunately fiddle with the website as I could not figure out how to set up a password enabled user A/C at yogadistrict.com. BUT Amazingly I was contacted by Andrea here on Yelp, and also by Jasmine via text - they both welcomed me to attend and assured that it should be ok to join in, so I headed over and was able to take Marissa's Kundalini Yoga class - she was terrific. Thanks YOGADISTRICT! read more

Having recently released 25+ pounds, I've been in search of a program to keep my body in shape as I continue to shed. I've attended and enjoyed Barre classes in the past. But I always found myself wishing that the Barre classes included more yoga and in fact the yoga part of the class was always what I enjoyed the most. I discontinued Barre classes to concentrate on nutrition and when I decided to re-enter an exercise program I considered barre again but it occurred to me that instead of wishing they included more yoga, I could just take yoga! I researched and found 2 yoga studios in particular that I want to try out. Today I tried Yoga District (Wisconsin Avenue branch). My instructor, Akiko. I cannot say enough positive things about her style and grace and expertise. I was the first to arrive. She introduced herself and asked a little about me. Then she put my mind at ease by telling me that in yoga, you never force the body or move to the point of discomfort. Instead, you let the body make adjustments over time...at its own pace. During class (which had about 16 or 17 women) she found time to circulate throughout the entire class, correcting postures with gentleness and care and encouraging each student with kindness. I've already signed up for another of her classes and plan on taking a class with her every week. On Thursday I will check out one other studio and if I like that class, I'll have 2 different days, classes and styles to be a part of. I highly recommend Yoga District. The fees are exceptionally affordable and the teaching according to the reviews is exceptional. read more

I recommend Yoga District to everyone. Convenience, affordable, inclusive, and most important all the instructors are amazing!. I have been taking different classes and I love them all. My favorites are Dharma with Greg and flow with Akiko. But really all the instructors are just wonderful. read more

I am a 5 year member of Yoga District who primarily uses the new Glover Park studio. The atmosphere and the level of attention by the teachers is wonderful. Also Yoga District was able to provide me access to private lessons when I first started. I did not know the moves and over 8 months, one of their instructors taught me the basic moves and proper forms. The class instructors continue to offer that guidance that helps me to maintain proper forms and posture. The variety of classes and times offer a flexibility that meets my schedule. My doctor and I are grateful to Yoga District for the health benefits it provides and the professionals that lead the classes. read more

This yoga studio is wonderful. It is a community collective, so it's more accessible than a typical studio. The space was perfect and calming. And the instructor, Greg, was excellent. This was my first class in a very long time. He was a great guide through the practice, giving a mental, physical and spiritual perspective. I will definitely return! read more

I am new to yoga and tried my first yoga class at the Glover Park location of Yoga District last night. It was so great! Stacy was our instructor and she did a wonderful job helping my friend and me who were both new to yoga. And $11 for 2 classes for new students is a deal that can't be beat. I will definitely be back! read more

I have been attending Yoga District since it opened back in the spring because it was the best option for inexpensive yoga in my neighborhood, however I will not be returning after an incident two weeks ago. I went to a class on a Friday evening, and as always, the class door was locked while we were in there (it's a one room studio). 30 minutes into class, a man knocked on the door and the intern who checks people in/takes class actually let him in. A man, sans yoga mat, knocking on the door 30 minutes after class started, should never have been let into a small, dark room with 4 women and 1 man practicing yoga. Not only did it defeat the purpose of locking the door at all, but it's just not safe! The instructor asked him to leave and after a few minutes he finally did, but not before stealing my wallet out of my bag. I no longer feel safe taking yoga classes at this studio. When I told the manager that the door shouldn't have been unlocked for someone 30 minutes after class stared and that we need to be vigilant, she said we need to be trusting of all people, anyone is allowed in at anytime because it's all about community, etc. Wake up call, we live in DC, this stuff can and will happen. I'm going to take my business to a studio that actually looks out for the safety and well being of its students. In addition, when I tried to cancel my membership, she offered me a 5 class pack to make up for the stress of the incident. Nice gesture, but when I'm doing unlimited monthly yoga, what good does that do? All I wanted was a refund for a month of yoga I didn't use due to my concern for my safety and that of others that frequent this studio. read more

The Glover Park YD is down the street from my office- I particularly love their noon class on Monday and Wednesday with Hayley Ann. She is AWESOME. She teaches at some of the other Yoga District locations as well. Despite the air conditioning breaking this summer, the staff at Yoga District was very responsive when I wrote them an email complaining about the heat. It was an issue with their landlord. I also go to classes at the 14th St. studio. There are no bells and whistles at the studio, it's small, but the teachers and class availability make the classes great. I'm on a month to month unlimited membership, but they are very accommodating to people who might have to miss a class if they bought a package. My emails are always returned in a timely manner when I have a question about something. Katie's classes on Fridays at noon are also a great way to unwind from the week. read more

Small, minimalist space. Some may find it a bit close, but I found it to be a welcome change from many of the industrial studios in the area and a nice opportunity to reconnect with yoga in a down-to-earth manner. The yoga instructor was welcoming, engaging, appropriately attentive to how various class members were doing, and well-trained. She offered to stay after class to help a student she saw struggling with a difficult move. I might have paced the flow a bit differently, but that really is just me being nit picky rather than a genuine critic. Overall my experience was extremely positive and I will definitely be including Yoga District on a regular basis in the studios I use. read more

I took a class with two of my girlfriends for fun 3/11; it was the "powerful flow" at 5 PM. Excellent class and encouraging teacher. The space is tiny and easy to miss, so if you've never been before, go early to make sure you can find it and get a spot. read more

I loved my experience here! I've wanted to get back into yoga for some time. This place is such an inclusive, welcoming environment free from a lot of the corporatized "boutique" yoga DC often has to offer. I had a fantastic class with Margaux. Highly recommend! You really can't beat the atmosphere, welcoming staff, and prices. read more

No frills, solid yoga instruction. Kara is the best for my practice, but I have had only positive experiences. The scheduling app is also a seamless bonus. read more

Love this tiny studio! I took the yoga nidra (deep relaxation) class with Kirsten last week and it was amazing. Her voice/energy was super soothing and the pace of the class was perfect to get me into that not quite asleep, not quite awake state of mind. The room is small and at first I was worried about noise from the street, but it was actually totally quiet inside - or I was just too relaxed to notice anything :-) Definitely worth checking out! read more

I live in NY, but will be in DC a lot this summer on the weekends. I am staying in Glover Park and found this studio via google maps. A great find! I tried the 'Gentle Yoga' class yesterday, and it was a perfect treat for a Sunday afternoon. The poses were very stretching and relaxing but purposeful. I really enjoyed it. The studio is very welcoming and warm. I look forward to trying some of the flow classes. Highly recommend! read more

KIRSTEN. Perfection. (Took the first class in a couple of years as my previous yogi at Unity Woods retired (BooHoo).) Core Yoga was great and very well led with appropriately gentle firm and encouraging lead by Kirsten. Yoga instructor energy is very important that it be positive and zen. She was all that and we got a vigorous yoga practice. I will be back as a regular to Kirsten and Yoga District for sure. read more

I usually practice at home, don't get out to studios too much, but I will be coming back to this one. Took my first class here today with Julia. it was very good, a slow-ish but vigorous flow with something for everyone. Elements of her flow and style reminded me of Bryan Kest, who i love, so that was great (Julia is no copycat though, her style is all her own). I'm tired of hot yoga, i find it very gimicky, it's healthier and more challenging to build heat from within, which is exactly what we did. It was nice to be able to breathe clean, fresh air and still work up a sweat. Added bonus: the class was only $11! read more

Amazing Kundalini Yoga experience! Feel so lucky to have Kundalini Yoga in Glover Park. Friday nights at Yoga District on Wisconsin Avenue with Magali is the perfect way to go into the weekend. She teaches a class that works for beginners as well as experts - which is really impressive. Magali is incredibly warm and experienced and is careful about students having a positive yoga experience with Kundalini... everything is choreographed carefully - including music. The studio is small, but it works perfectly with Magali's approach... Feel like I've learned how to experience a Kundalini class anywhere in the world thanks to her approach! read more

I had heard great things about Yoga District. I finally took a Saturday morning class and I found all of it to be true. The studio is small but very clean and bright. the highlight is the teacher Akiko, who is a skilled instructor and a genuinely warm and special spirit. A great class for beginners or for the experienced, male or female. read more
