This was my first experience doing yoga. I was invited by my sister to go and I enjoyed every bit of it. I did the aerial yoga and it was a great experience. I definitely need to come more often so I can get better but I extremely enjoyed it. I want keep going to those classes as well as standard yoga! Thank you guys for the wonderful experience!
My very first yoga class experience was so enjoyable at Space Yoga Studios. Everyone was very pleasant and welcoming!!! Beth was an awesome instructor making my first yoga experience very gratifying and fun. I will definitely return for more classes.
My first hot yoga experience was a GREAT one! A couple gals from work invited me to Thursday night hot yoga at Space Yoga, and I was excited but nervous - I dabbled in yoga during Covid quarantine, but I'm no expert, and I've never done it in a 90 degree room! Booking the class online was easy, and I love their financially accessible price model. I paid online before class. Then I chugged water all day, fearing passing out from dehydration during hot yoga that evening. But when 7pm rolled around, and I showed up to Space Yoga, all my fears were gone! The studio has a great atmosphere - zen, low-lighting, and no mirrors. Everyone was welcoming, and they had all the mats, yoga blocks, and fresh towels everyone needed. Many brought their own mats, but Space Yoga had plenty clean ones to spare (and plenty of extra mat cleaner). Everyone set up their mat anywhere they felt comfortable, and there was no pressure. Perfect for someone who goes every week, or just someone who was showing up for the first time. There were probably 20 people there for class. The owner gave us a few kind words, and then the instructor began. She was great! Not too slow and not too fast, and when we began a new pose, she would describe plenty of variations for it so people would be comfortable regardless of skill level. There was no walking around the room and critiquing poses - just a calm, group environment to practice yoga at your own pace with no pressure. As for the "hot" part of the yoga... I loved it! I set up my mat in the back, trying to stay far away from the heater, but next time I will move closer to it. The heat felt great and loosened up those muscles! I will be coming back for hot yoga, and I'll definitely be trying out some other classes! One more quick note - as this studio is at the corner of Central Ave and Monte Sano Ave, I wouldn't say there is ample parking. If you show up too early (more than 15 mins before class), all the parking in front of the studio (on the Central Ave side) is still full from the previous class, but if you show up too late (at the time class starts), you may not get a spot either. However, I was able find parking along Monte Sano Ave on the other side of Central Ave (heading towards St. Mary's), so just be prepared to not park directly in front of the studio if need be.
