Practices and classes
Yoga is at the center of the timetable, with a wide range of flow, restorative and slow classes. Strength classes and Pilates add a more physical edge, including mat Pilates and a core and fat loss class held in the yoga studio. Most classes run 45 minutes, with some going a full hour.
The studio has a couple of dozen facilitators, so the teaching feels varied without being scattered across many locations. A few names come up most often in the timetable, and their classes are a good way to get a sense of the studio's approach.
When the week runs
The studio's schedule is front-loaded. More than half of its classes start before noon, and about half begin before 9am. Classes run from as early as 5:45am to as late as 6:40pm, with the busiest starts at 5:45am, 6:35am, 9:20am and noon. Monday, Wednesday and Friday carry the most classes, while weekends are quiet.
The evening schedule is smaller, though it still offers options after work. A midday practice is available but less common, making early and late sessions the usual choice here.
