This place is next level. Open heartfelt care I couldn't recommend it enough. The instructors are real true images of how we need to be in this world and I don't say that lightly. Forever grateful to Sue and everyone making this haven go round. Thank you. read more

I've been going to Yoga Pura since it has opened. The whole place feels like home. I am always welcomed like a old friend The teachers are all great and i enjoy the classes. I especially love the diversity of people in the classes. The classes are authentic in nature, which , is really important for me. Did I mention I'm RYT 200hr, with 22 years experience. A 1008 thank-yous for being such a fantastic studio. read more

It a kind a very giving studio. I appreciate and have gratitude fir all the teachers and classes I've attended.

I can't say enough good things about this place!! Atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Super clean. Love the diversity of the classes offered and the class sizes are usually pretty good! I recommend taking a class with Laura! read more

We joined almost 1 year ago and we really love it. The staff is friendly and the environment and class selections are awesome

Dropped in for a class passing through town. This is a really nice studio. It's very professional, clean and the atmosphere is lovely. I came for a beginners class, and it was just what I wanted for my day. Slightly challenging, nice slow pace to focus on getting into my best pose expressions and gentle corrections from the teacher. This class made my day a lot better. If I lived in phoenix id definitely visit this studio often . read more

This is the place to yoga! A wonderful community where everyone knows your name. I've tried other "yoga" place's previously. None can compare. I highly recommend yoga Pura. I've been a member several years now and live this place!! read more

I love Yoga Pura!! ''The attitude of gratitude is the highest yoga." - Yogi Bhajan All of the classes & teachers are wonderful. Highly recommend. I have tried many yoga studios and I haven't found anywhere else that I have liked as much. Such an important practice, in this crazy mixed up world lol !!! ''YOGA IS NOT A WORK-OUT, IT IS A WORK-IN. AND THIS IS THE POINT OF SPIRITUAL PRACTICE; TO MAKE US TEACHABLE; TO OPEN UP OUR HEARTS AND FOCUS OUR AWARENESS SO THAT WE CAN KNOW WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW AND BE WHO WE ALREADY ARE.'' - Rolf Gates The community is wonderful, warm and welcoming. Namaste. read more

Yoga Pura - Yoga Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

See all

If only Yoga Pura was located closer to my home, I would've made it there sooner... but instead, it took me over two years to make my way to check out this awesome yoga studio. I'm writing this review just over 24 hours after a power yoga class I took at YP. Mark taught it and it flew by! He played awesome music and the class was challenging mentally and physically. I was dripping sweat and felt great during and after class, and I slept like a baby that night. And the bonus is that I'm actually really sore today from yesterday's class! Good sore! I haven't been sore from yoga in a long time either... The studio is a little gem in a strip mall. Inside, you'll find friendly employees, a library full of all kinds of books for sale, and a boutique with clothing and all kinds of fun stuff. I didn't explore it but if and when I return, I'll have to spend more time. The best part about my visit to Yoga Pura is that it was free! Yes, your first class is free... so there really is no reason not to go... I was given a "welcome packet" with all kinds of information including basic yoga info, the membership info, the class schedule, coupons, and more. Yoga Pura offers classes every day of the week, and many to choose from at that. While the location is not ideal for me, I will hopefully plan on dropping in again for more kick ass yoga classes in the future... especially if I happen to be on that side of town. Call me a yoga whore if you'd like; I'm ok with it! I do yoga at several studios around the Valley already, so why not add another favorite to the list, right?! read more

I love this yoga spot! The vibe is always welcoming and calming. I am a novice, yet always feel like part of the group. No one is judging you, and you feel supported here. The building is beautiful and serene inside and there are several studios. My only negatives: it's a bit far from where I live (not their fault), and there are not many classes to choose from between 4-6p. It's hard to make 7-9p classes when you have 2 babies and work full-time. It would be nice to swing by after work. Other than that, I loveee it here! read more

Amazing yoga, serene studio, outstanding staff. Couldn't be happier that I finally got to attend my first class (vinyasa yoga) here yesterday. To boot it was a free class for moms on Mother's Day! And the studio owner, Eric, gave all the mom's white roses. The staff went out of their way to talk with me, answered my questions to figure out which class I might do best in, and toured me around the studio. Jennifer taught the class, which was fun, laid-back, and accessible to even a newbie like me. Jennifer's commentary was hilarious, the class participants were welcoming, and the space was wonderful. Run, don't walk (and then calm down!) to a class at Yoga Pura. It's an absolute gem. (Oh and FYI, no funny smells here, as previous reviewers mentioned. And I was even in one of the heated room classes.) read more

Yoga Pura - A rose from the owner and some welcome information about the studio for my first free Mother's Day class at Yoga Pura! - Yoga Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Yoga Pura is a beautiful studio and their instructors are awesome. No wonder every class I've taken, it is packed with people! I just wished they had late evening classes on Wednesday but they have tons of class offerings already as it is. Huge plus! read more

My wife and I discovered this Yoga studio while searching for a yoga based charity to support. The owner, Eric, also runs Operation Bootstrap a charity that provides a yoga and meditation based system to help veterans suffering from PTSD. We took a class with Eric to get to know him and discuss Bootstrap. Eric is one of the most welcoming and friendly people you will ever meet. He starts the class off by going around the from and having everyone state their name and then asks any new students if they have any physical issues or injuries he should be aware of. The class was a a more traditional physical yoga class, rather than our traditional Vinyasa style. The class is a perfect mix that allows new students to learn and more experienced practitioners to perfect the poses and really get into the moment. Eric provides great feedback throughout class and begins the class with just the right amount of mental conditioning as well. We have been to this class many times and it never fails to challenge me mentally and physically. We have since taken numerous workshops at the location on Yoga Nidra and Meditation. We have also had many wonderful Vinyasa Flow classes with Jenn Brooks (check her out at Dancing Lotus Yoga for a full schedule). The front desk staff and all the teachers we have met are always very friendly and competent. Eric really sets the tone for the studio and it permeates the entire staff. Although we have a regular yoga studio close to home this is the Best Yoga studio in North Phoenix! Please check it out for regular classes or workshops. You won't be disappointed. read more

Yoga Pura - Yoga Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

There are different reasons people are first drawn to a yoga studio and different reasons why they decide to return. I've visited many studios at times in my life when I needed a new energy, a new light, or a new experience. This studio came into my life after a big move and the timing was perfect..... Yoga "to join" Pura "home"......this is my home where I join body with spirit, where I find union with the Universe, where I commune with friends. The RYT500-certified instructors are all well-versed in various styles of strong, nurturing, healing, and invigorating techniques. I have enjoyed the space immensely during morning, midday, and evening classes. Love yourself enough to visit Yoga Pura :) read more

Yoga Pura is a wonderful studio. Very serene. Great staff. I've had the opportunity to try yoga nidra which anyone can participate in. It's a relaxation yoga and led by a wonderful instructor- Thaddeus. I have also tried the restorative yoga taught by Laura and it was a great class. There are a few bathrooms to use. Snacks are for sale along with books, jewelry, mats, and yoga clothing. You do not need to sign up ahead of time, just show up and sign in for your class. They offer several different yoga classes from beginner to advanced classes. Blankets, blocks, and padded mats are available and no charge. They also give back to the community and offer additional classes and workshops. I highly recommend them! read more

Thank You Amy D. If it were not for her, i would not have brought in the new year the best way i now know how to... by doing YOGA! :) the lady at the front desk was amazing ... she was very calm and welcoming... that made me feel more comfortable since i don't ever go anywhere alone... and i had never done yoga ever in my life... two new things in one night... I'm on a roll :) i met Amy D.... she is so nice and welcoming too :) it made things way easier... the instructor was a very nice gentleman... tall with a little ponytail... and an adorable little white chihuahua that stays up at the front of the studio in his kennel during the session.. :) i thought it was cute lol the instructor had such a calming voice and was very easy to follow... meditation is NOT my forte... even though it was relaxing and interesting... i guess i need more practice since half the time i had my eyes open (yes, i had my eyes open during meditation... i know now ... that's a no-no) and was watching everyone else to see what i was doing wrong.. why i couldn't just relax and think about nothing... hmm.. yes definitely need more practice... the bathrooms were very spacious and clean... and i loved the little cubby holes for your shoes and things :) the studio was very calming and clean... and clean makes me calm... lots of space.. and the dimming light action seriously helped in the mood setting... this has been one of the best "new" experiences Ive had yet this year... and i cannot wait for more... Thanks Again Amy... read more

I've never done yoga before. I thought it was BS (I'm a sorry mistaken fool - tell me about it) and it was for the hippies (Refer to earlier sorry mistaken fool comment). This changed when I went to YP. They have a flexible schedule which is a big plus in my book given my loser work schedule at the pharmacy and with both morning and evening classes I can always make it for one or the other. They have super friendly front office staff , esp Shauna ( i may have butchered her name) who is amazing ! The instructors are wonderful people who know what they are doing (In my noob opinion) and are extremely helpful in assisting you. So just how much do I like it, enough to get a membership for a year . Now all I have to do is focus on my breath ! read more

This place is amazing. There's no pressure, a positive atmosphere, and a wealth of knowledge that is readily available for any and all questions. I enjoy this space very much and have no intention of ever leaving. read more

Well I suppose I am kinda biased as I teach at YP. But it wasn't always that way. I used to practice at other studios around town and had always enjoyed classes. I metEric, the owner, through a business meeting and we got talking. He invited me to practice and I haven't looked back. Since then I completed the 500 hour certification program and the studio is part of my life. If you are looking for something different, go to Pura. The classes still give you the physical work out but what's different is that you get the philosophy too. Not just a few new age words sprinkled in here and there but a truly holistic understanding of this ancient practice. Try it once. You never know. You might like it. read more

OK, for starters... I'm all about handstands and arm balances. Also, I believe that yoga is about listening to your body and doing the pose that is right for you. Therefore, if your in a pose and you think you should go deeper than do it! When I go to a power class and I'm told not to modify and the teacher is overweight, I get scarred that it's going to be a bad class. Also, power yoga should be taught by type A people. You can be mellow and spiritual, then teach a restorative class. Enough ranting! Yoga Pura has a nice vibe, but for starts it smells like an old gym, where are the air fresheners and sage folks? Wow!! The people there are really nice, but the Manger that teaches power should only be allowed to teach level 1 Flow and Restorative classes. She is a very sincere woman and a had a great spirit, but she should not teach power! Her class was so bad that I barley broke into a sweat. We spent 40 mins in ansana for an 85 min class!!!! That is nuts for a power class. I understand the owner Eric is awesome, but he needs to look who is teaching his more advanced classes. Yoga has changed and people are more advanced. This studio is behind the times. If you want a great yoga studio in Phoenix, then your best option is AtoneYoga! Enough said. read more

I am so impressed with this studio! It is tucked away in a small strip mall so you may not notice if you're not looking. BUT! Upon entering for the first time I was greeted by the friendly receptionist. It was a very busy time for the studio but the atmosphere was very relaxed. It is a very clean and cozy place with a boutique full of clothes, books, accessories etc. The restrooms are very clean and pleasant. Not like some studios that I've been to, yuck! One thing I really like is the room that Im regularly in has no wall mirror. Some may argue that you can't check your poses but I believe this gives everyone a chance to relax more since we're not all gazing at each other. It is easier to listen to your body instead of constantly making sure you're doing it like that person...etc. My instructor is so bubbly and kind. Her voice is very calming and her instruction is relaxed. Granted, this is an intro class but she makes sure that everyone feels good, comfortable and really focuses on the importance of self. Making sure to listen to one's own body (with gentle correction if something is truly off). Everyone there is very warm and friendly and I cannot wait to continue my classes at Yoga Pura! A true gem. read more

What a wonderful, warm and welcoming yoga studio! Come here to learn yoga or to really get into your practice. Be sure to try Yoga Nidra and pick up something eye-catching in the delightful boutique. STYLE: This place is perfect if you're a newcomer to yoga. Yoga Pura has beginner and intro classes to start you off right, improve your postures, or just focus on the fundamentals. The flow classes are a wonderful way to expand your practice, a touch slower and cooler than some other studios, with simpler transitions that allowing more focus on each pose. There are many hot, sweaty, fast flow places in the city, where it helps to know exactly what you're doing, but not nearly enough places to learn the basics and hone the craft. The studio concentrates on more than just the postures (shapes, as they say), and draws students' attention to the purpose behind them - calming the mind and body, strengthening mental and emotional endurance to prepare for life's challenges. There's a bit of chanting, they say Jai Bagwan instead of Namaste, and each class begins with a brief lesson - just the teacher's insight into some aspect of yoga theory, a suggestion of something to focus on while you breathe and bend into poses. Aside from the soothing atmosphere, the studio's classes are free to all current of former members of the US military. The owner, Eric Walrabenstein, is also the creator of the incredible BOOTSTRAP program, which is an absolutely free, at-home program for treating PTSD related to military service - and it's based on yoga techniques. It's inspiring to learn from a teacher with such a rich history and depth/breadth of understanding. CLASSES: I highly recommend Basics classes with Eric Walrabenstein (the inspiring studio owner), flow classes with Jen Brooks (lovely class, lovely voice!), or Intro series with Laura or Marta (they'll help you sort out which limb goes where). This studio also offers Yoga Nidra (guided meditation) classes which are absolutely transformative. If you think you can't get anything out of lying down, perfectly comfortable, and relaxing your mind for 45 minutes, you're in for an incredible surprise. It's one of the most beneficial forms of yoga, and it feels wonderful. I highly recommend it, and this is one of the few studios that offers it. TIPS: 1. Be a few minutes early: this isn't just a place to exercise, so it's a little quieter and more respectful. 2. Bring a hand towel - they don't offer towel service, and if you're anything like me, you don't need a hot room to break a sweat. 3. They have 3 nice bathrooms but no showers. Plan accordingly. read more

Yoga Pura is a beautiful oasis for relaxation and restoration of the self. The gently lit studios are a wonderful place to learn and practice Yoga. The shop in the front tantalizes the senses with gentle fragrance and sounds, soft comfortable clothes, tools and accessories for yoga, books, incense burners, CDs and other delightful gift items to share. The studios are not too big, have gorgeous hardwood floors, and provide a peaceful place for classes or private sessions. Yoga Pura has wide range of classes including an 8 session introductory package that is perfect for anyone who is new to yoga. It also makes a great gift. Yoga Pura also has a yoga instructor certification program that is one of the most respected in Arizona. They also have massage therapists that are available by appointment. read more

I've been practicing yoga consistently for well over six years. I began my practice shortly after I turned forty. And I began at Yoga Pura. I felt immediately comfortable in their space, and very welcomed by the teachers and other practitioners. I spent the next three years, mostly in the Essential Basics classes, re-educating my body in the ways of forgotten flexibility, and reclaiming the strength that slumbered unharnessed in my muscle tissues. Over time, as I developed stamina and equanimity in my body, I eventually moved on to the Power and Flow classes. I enjoyed the fitness challenge these classes offered, but I didn't enjoy the loud music typical with these styles of classes. Soon after I found Ashtanga yoga - but that's another review. This past week, for old time's sake, I took a Level 1-2 class with Eric W., the studio director. And I wasn't disappointed. What I especially enjoy about Eric is his emphasis on yogic philosophy and his ability to deliver that philosophy in a fun and engaging way. He begins all his classes with a brief talk, and directs the teachers in his other classes to do the same. With the intellectual material presented and digested, we began our asana practice. And again, I wasn't disappointed. Eric "reads" the room with a depth that is hard to grasp. He feels the energy of the practitioners, and like the conductor of a symphony orchestra, directs the energy of the group to a crescendo of intensity and back down into blissful harmony. And he does it all with a select number of well sequenced postures, which are held for just the length of time necessary to achieve the desired therapeutic effect. At the end of one of Eric's classes, the body sings like a finely tuned instrument. Yoga Pura offers classes for all abilities, a great community of friendly practitioners, well trained teachers, and the opportunity to take your yoga practice to a deeper level. read more

My friend and i drove 25 miles to get to a yoga class at 2:00pm, we get there 5 minutes late and they did not let us in. We did all we could to get there on time and the lady at the front desk asked us to leave and to arrive on time next time. I asked her since we drove such a long way to come to this place can we get in? She still said no. I felt so hurt at all the effort we put in. She was looking at us funny because I am Mexican and my friend is Black. We have both practiced yoga for a while now. Since then, I will not got back due to poor customer response. I will not recommend this place to any of my friends. read more

I recently moved from Tempe to Moon Valley and was worried about finding a good yoga studio. In Tempe I had access to so many great yoga studios, Hegel, Spirit of Yoga and Yoga Nirvana were all within biking distance! Well, the only yoga studio within biking distance of my new place is Yoga Pura. Way out in the burbs I wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised by Yoga Pura. Eric and his teachers do an amazing job of sharing the true spirit of yoga. Their classes aren't just workouts and/or stretching, they focus on the mental aspects of yoga, an essential part in my humble opinion. I always feel better and much calmer after classes here, and what could be better than that? Another added bonus is they offer Yin Yoga! My body has been beaten up by 25 years of skateboarding, snowboarding and mountain biking and yin classes really open up my back, hips and shoulders! read more

I just finished up a gift certificate to Yoga Pura (5 sessions). Most of it was used on a Yin Yoga class (Monday nights at 7:30). Yin Yoga involves mostly stretching focusing mostly on your spine and hips. Postures are held for anywhere from 3-10 minutes. Nyla, the instructor, is such a peaceful, calming influence. I was so impressed with the fact that she noticed I was new to her class right away and yet she made me feel completely welcome. I also attended a flow class one Saturday morning. I've done vinyasa yoga before but never been exposed to binding positions. I found this class to be more challenging, but still enjoyable. Next time, I'll introduce myself to the instructor in advance and be sure to pick a spot where I can see better. The only reason I took off a star is because the rooms are often stinky from the sweaty folks in the class before. A sign of a good workout, but I wish they would try to air them out a bit between sessions. AND, because, I was really only interested in the flow and yin (once I tried it) classes and I found the limited offerings difficult to work into my schedule. Still, I'm glad to have discovered this sanctuary for the mind and spirit so close to home! I'll be back. (You don't have to be a member, you can just drop in at $17 a class) read more

Yoga Pura is a great place for all levels. I love the calm atmosphere, spacious studios, and friendly instructors. It is a great place to go to relax and get a good workout after work. They also have a great collection of yoga gear and books. Definitely worth checking out! read more

THE BEST YOGA STUDIO IN PHOENIX, HANDS DOWN! Why? 1. Quality Teachers 2. Dedication to authentic yoga 3. Supportive community environment 4. Variety of styles 5. Yoga teacher training/advanced studies program I've been doing yoga for more than 15 years, and have tried many studios in the valley. Yoga Pura, by far, is the best studio in town for an authentic experience of yoga. I particularly enjoy Eric's classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. There is a certain focus and concentration, as well as a the overall feeling of peace I experience during his classes that I just can't get anywhere else. He teaches yoga as a discipline for creating peace and happiness in his students' lives...not just fluffy stretching. Some of my other favorite classes include Nyla's Level 1 & 2 and essentials, Rachel's essentials class, and for a good restoration class, check out Laura. I also absolutely LOVE the Yoga Nidra (guided meditation) offered here. Nidra is really hard to find in town, and YP is one of the few places that actually trains teachers in the practice of Nidra. Regardless of what your looking for...hatha, flow, power, gentle, restorative, meditation...whether you are new or an experienced practitioner, you will find something here that suits your practice style. My best advice to you is to try different teachers and different classes. Once you start coming here, you may never stop! If you come regularly, you will undoubtedly make friends. It's so nice to come to class and see people I've met over the years. The community at YP is definitely one of the things that makes it so special. Lastly, yet most importantly.... Yoga is about realizing your limitless potential and releasing from the suffering of the mind. It does this by bringing you into alignment with your "true self" and freeing your mind from the lies it tells itself. I always knew that yoga made me feel better. But it wasn't until I started practicing with Eric at Yoga Pura that i started to understand why. This lead me to take YP's Yoga Teacher Training and Advanced Studies program in 2011. It was by far THE BEST thing I have done to improve my life. And for that, I will be eternally grateful to Eric, YP teachers and the YP community. But don't take my word for it...Test it out for yourself. They offer 3 free classes for newcomers. ENJOY! read more

I walked into this amazing local studio, called Yoga Pura, back in 2003 and have been there ever since. The studio itself is so calming, relaxing and an all around ahhh feeling. The variety of classes offered makes it appealing for everyone. The teachers here are dedicated to giving you, the student, the best yoga experience possible. Eric, the owner, pours his heart and soul into the studio, to offer us all the best yoga practice. If we need something explained, if we want a book recommended or even how to do a pose, Eric is available. Sometimes life has us baffled and we need a different perspective, Eric is there. Eric has offered to military persons free yoga classes as well as an amazing program called BOOTSTRAP to help with PTSD, also for free. He is always trying to get new programs out there to help more and more people through yoga and meditation The staff at Yoga Pura give you smile when you walk in and are always there to help. Some people move from yoga studio to yoga studio but to me this is home and Yoga Pura is where my heart is! read more

Very nice. I was traveling to the area for the US Field Hockey Festival and since I'm working on my 200RYT I needed to get a class in on the road. I went to the 8am class with Laura- she was great. I already decided prior to arrival that I was going to focus on finding space in poses, in moments of stress, etc and Laura READ MY MIND! She also did a great job handling me- I'm five months pregnant and although I explained that this is my second kid, I did vigorous yoga until my first was born and I was in my 200RYT training, she still offered helpful variations...because, really, how does she know I'm not lying through my teeth? The space is awesome- ample bathrooms and studio space and a great book store selection in the front. They offer 20% in the store for first purchase to newbies. Minus one star because of this: Drop in rate for an out of town-er is $17. If I lived nearby I could've taken advantage of a sweet deal-and I've noticed this is common for the Valley area and it's the only thing that sucked. I'm on the road and my choices are limited- so I'm forced (if I want to take a class and not practice ALONE) to pay extra. Hmmf. read more

I'm straying from my usual restaurant reviews, but I think Yoga Pura merits kudos for sure. After three classes, I think it's time for a full blown review. First of all, Yoga Pura is a wonderful place to experience classical yoga and also dabble into the faddish "power" / "flow" yoga that seems to be all the rage these days. It's a lovely studio with a great, calming vibe, and oddly enough a great place to meditate. The two teachers I've worked with with so far: Rachel (in Essential Basics) and the studio owner Yogi E (in Classic I/II) are wonderful. They are so very patient with beginners (myself included) and work very hard to make sure that you get the most out of your practice. They see when you're getting into trouble and help with props and helpful advice. Also, the yoga that is taught here goes beyond superficial stretching exercise, it goes much deeper, and is something that I've taken out into the world and complements my Buddhist practice very well. One thing that also merits a lot of kudos is the traditional integrity of the teachers at this studio. They are committed to yoga as a path of personal transformation. As we Buddhists would say, they've got the blessings of their lineage. And I would say, they do represent their lineage and tradition well. Their prices are also more than reasonable ($89 / month membership with unlimited yoga classes), and the staff and atmosphere are very friendly. I'm proud to be the Yelp Duke of Yoga Pura. read more

"Stay on your mat." I remember hearing this expression when I first started dabbling in yoga some ten years ago. The depth of this teaching is beyond the scope of this review, but even today, I find it a bit funny, but only if taken literally. I am not your typically yoga student, in that I am very tall, and don't physically fit on a standard 4x6 neon colored stretch of rubberized pvc. Staying on the mat wasn't going to be easy. What prompted this review was my experience last weekend at Yoga Pura. I am within a few days of my one-year anniversary of first attending their classes. Last Saturday I was running a bit late and slipped in just before the doors closed. The class was settling, a regular at the studio whispered that I wasn't late. A moment later the teacher nodded a greeting. It's a drop-in class but I felt like they were expecting me. And to my original observation. At Yoga Pura, I've never felt uncomfortable or the need to be a specific body type, age, or rise to an arbitrary competitive level. I had unspoken permission to expand, perhaps just a little bit, beyond my mat. It's this sense of community that permeates the studio, the quality of teachers, the tranquility of the space, that all that keeps me coming back to my mat and encourages me to highly recommend others to discover this studio. read more

I love Yoga Pura. I tried a class here a few weeks ago because I drive by this studio on my way home from work everyday and noticed that they offer your first class free. I am a high school teacher & track/xc coach and I had a runner who was recovering from a stress fracture and I wanted her to try out yoga with me. She had never been to a yoga class before, I have practiced off and on for years, more frequently in the past 12 months. We tried the Essential Basics class because I wanted the poses really explained to her. Michael was teaching the class this time (I guess his wife, Rachel, usually does). He was awesome. Like I said, I am very familiar with yoga and I only did the beginner class because it was my friend's first class but he was AWESOME. He really explained and showed every pose. He helped everyone, he lightened the mood with his sense of humor...it was great. I loved everything about the class. It was PACKED but the vibe was awesome....like a family :) The office staff is first class. They gave my friend and I a welcome package. I just think they are doing everything right there. Their monthly membership is SO reasonably priced... if I weren't moving across the country in a few weeks, I would definitely join! Keep up the great work, Yoga Pura!!! read more

I've been going here for a month and so I far I love it and the staff my first experience was with Nyla. I was so Impressed with how well she put me in possessions and the deep stretches they made. I have suffered from stiff hand stings and bad lower back and I can see the difference.... My second Experience was with Rachel. Rachel has beautiful energy and perfect instructions as a beginner I never had to open my eyes she spoke the moves so well. I think I will enjoy going here and look forward to being here in the future read more

I love all the staff here. There are many great classes. My personal favorite was Essential Basics with Rachel. It was just hard enough to feel like I was getting something done, but not impossibly hard for someone mildly active like me. I like that they don't have mirrors and loud music like some of the other yoga studios in town. It actually helps me focus on the poses and the exercise rather than my surroundings or worrying about how I might look. read more

I have been using my $20 trial membership for the last couple of weeks. The staff, instructors and facilities are top notch. My only complaint is that some of the classes have been so crowded that I've turned around and left. Fire that reason alone I won't be purchasing a membership. read more

Yoga Pura is a really wonderful studio to be part of. It's a true gem. Everyone is so warm and welcoming. You'll find all levels and ages in their classes, which I really love. The instructors are all fantastic in every way. They are kind, tranquil, fun, funny, compassionate, they explain everything thoroughly, and create challenging classes, without setting their students up to overdo things that would cause an injury. I've thoroughly enjoyed every class I've taken. The office manager, Heather, is so warm, welcoming, and has a heart of gold. She's also an outstanding yoga teacher. Yoga Pura does a lot to give back to the community, which I also love. I just can't recommend this yoga studio enough. Yoga Pura is a wonderful, wonderful studio to be a part of. The people who go here are all very friendly. I absolutely love Yoga Pura and am so grateful to have stumbled upon this gem. If you're looking for a studio that is warm, welcoming, friendly, humble, thoughtful, kind, and very much about inner peace and not competing with the mat next to you, Yoga Pura is the yoga studio for you! read more

I primarily go to this studio because it's nearest to where I live. The teachers have good energy and are very accommodating. They have 6/7:30pm classes which are convenient for those coming from work. With those said, I wish it was better. There are no beginner flow classes (I used to practice Sivananda). The blankets used as props oftentimes smell. Blocks and straps look like they are not cleaned. No showers in the toilets. It's a "good enough" studio. read more

My home away from home! From the staff to The instructors I cannot day enough wonderful things about this studio. I have loved every class I've attended here. Love that there are no mirrors and the lighting is perfect and calming. The studio itself is very clean and inviting.
