I've been coming here for almost a year now and I absolutely love it. My favorite is Jeremy. He does power flows on Wednesdays and his flow is always so challenging and fun! Overall, thus is my favorite yoga studio. The teachers are great and so down to earth. The area its in is just a bonus ✨️

I took the Beginner Yoga class on a Sunday night and absolutely loved it! The room was perfectly heated for a beginner class, and it wasn’t crowded at all (maybe 10 people total).
The class was taught with lots of beginner queues which was very helpful, however there were definitely some intermediate poses thrown in there (which was so nice). I don’t know if I’d recommend this as someone’s first yoga class ever, but for someone who hasn’t practiced in a while it was perfect!
There was plenty of street parking in the area, along with the Bishop Arts parking lot 1 block away. The studio had large bathrooms with changing stalls too.
I will definitely be back for another class soon!

Austin (teaches 7:30 tuesdays) has helped me so much on my mental health journey!! Hearing his kind words + positive energy + him sharing his amazing yoga practice has helped me feel more grounded. He honestly is better at teaching self love than most therapists!! Plus the music he plays in class goes hard!! Hes just hands down such a good teacher + person!!
Overall the studio has a great communal vibe. The fact that they are donation based makes it a very accessible studio to come to! It just has a great neighborhood feel. It also feels very inclusive and welcoming to people from all walks of life. I love coming here!

Scott's Yin class (9-10pm) was phenomenal !! This being my first time to the Bishop location and my 2nd time to yoga in a hundred years, it was the perfect class to get back into the swing of things especially for a night owl :)

Flow with Joe
music is too fast paced for a flow yoga. hard to hear the instructions. only last couple minutes, the music quieted and slowed down. the flow itself was moderately difficult, with opportunities to take more difficult poses at times. the instructor was not on the mat, so having others around helps if you cant hear the instructions.

I’m typically not the type to leave bad reviews but as a yogi student searching for a yoga community, I feel it’s necessary to speak out on my experience. I’ve visited black swan one other time prior to this past experience and had an amazing time. This time however, I’m extremely disappointed. I signed up for the 9 pm slow flow class expecting a rejuvenating session but instead was met with a hamstring injury. The instructors sequence was not good at all, it was heavily Americanized and lacked traditional depth and philosophy of yoga. In addition, many of the poses she instructed was not beginner friendly and she lacked the skills needed to provide mortifications for those who are new. I am a 200 hour teacher currently studying for a 300 hour certification, therefore many of the mistakes wouldn't be picked up on by beginners. However, I did bring a friend who was trying to be in tune with the flow of the class and unfortunately she injured herself pretty bad and had to call in from work because she’s not able to walk. The instructor had us doing splits saying that it was targeting the calf muscles and hammies… splits are not a yogic sutra let alone a pose that should be recommended in a mixed class unless there’s close monitoring, something she was not doing. Yoga is not about stretching, yoga is not about aesthetics, and it isn’t about flexibility. This practice is ancient and should be handled with care, this particular instructor completely mishandled this practice and unfortunately it tarnished my outlook on Black Swan as a whole. Whoever is responsible for educating the instructors, please take the time to go over anatomy and yoga philosophy with your teachers again, because your teachings are lacking lineage and complete understanding of anatomy.

You must flow with Joe at Bishop location! Both Joe’s flow and power flow classes are amazing, and he creates new flows often. He also plays great music.

I had an amazing time here!! I’m a plus size active girlie and needed a change of routine. Walking in the environment was very welcoming, and the ladies at the front answered all the questions and concerns that I had. During class instructions were clear and not too fast, and I really felt like the teacher was tentative and gave great suggestions to modify poses.

Loved this class! The teachers are great at allowing people to go at their own pace but also giving you the space to push yourself. The people that attend are very nice too. Would recommend for anyone that wants an engaging yoga class.

Very welcoming space - I immediately felt at home and comfortable. Marcos was the teacher and he held the space very well, with a challenging flow and enough time for a great sivasana at the end ☺️
Thanks for an excellent experience!

I would give zero stars if I could. This was my first and last time. On class pass they say the amenities included are mats but they don’t tell you that you have to rent them which is fine. I go to rent the mat and they don’t take Apple Pay you need a physical card. It’s late and I live very close I had no idea I need my whole wallet to go to relaxation yoga. They are probably the only business in the city that are not up to date with Apple Pay how archaic it’s 2024 get with the times. The staff did not offer to waive the fee considering I had no problem paying it, it was just a matter of THEM not being able to take my payment. I was given blankets that are thin and won’t help me from being on the hard floor. I was so excited to attend this class and ended up leaving before it even started because of their customer service. Go to Jungle instead if you are looking for yoga in the area. Terrible.

I really enjoyed the beginner flow class with Alex J.
It was my very first time experiencing yoga and Alex made it a great experience from the time I stepped foot into the door.
He was very welcoming , explained everything in a way I could understand, and the class flowed at a maintainable pace.
He’s a great instructor and I will definitely say this is a great class to attend.
If you are pondering, do it !

If I could give this place zero stars I would. Me and my 2 sisters drove 45 minutes, it was raining horribly and we got there 8 minutes late and were turned around. We knocked on the door and the instructor opened the door and rudely closed the door back in my face once I let him know we were there for the class. Mind you we paid 30$ between all of us the class was until 10pm and he shut the door in our face with ZERO explanation. Absolutely ridiculous. I don’t do much for myself and was super excited to try this for a change. I left confused, upset, and money out of my pocket for absolutely no reason. It specifically says on the website if a bit late, you are still able to come in quietly. Don’t recommend this place at all.

Black Swan is great! I’ve trained there for over a year and a half and can’t imagine practicing Yoga anywhere else. From the inviting studio space, to the wide array of classes scheduled throughout the day, Black Swan makes practicing Yoga enjoyable and convenient. But the best part of Black Swan are the teachers. Alyssa, in particular, is superb. Highly technical with detailed and descriptive cues, following her through poses and postures feels simple and effortless. In addition to her clear and precise instruction, she also offers insights into the purpose of poses (why’s and not just how’s) and alternative variations for those who, like myself, lack the flexibility and strength to achieve a poses’ fullest expression. Alyssa’s flows are smooth and fluid with graceful transitions which seem to hit all my troubled muscle groups - a quality greatly appreciated by someone who suffers from chronic back and shoulder pain. Off the mats, Alyssa is warm and welcoming and a pleasure to be around. Give one of her classes a try. Her Sunday night slow flow is my favorite. You won’t be disappointed.

Nice yoga studio. Instructor very welcoming on this, my first visit. Class was well paced and the heat felt good. Only downside—the yoga studio and the larger complex it is in seems to lack a bike rack. This is weird oversight for an entity devoted to healthy bodies and minds located in a bike-friendly neighborhood.

BSY is truly like a second home. So many friendly teachers and students it is easy to make new connections. I definitely recommend checking out Black Swan Yoga at either location, but if you’re going to Bishop they have a smaller studio, which feels more cozy and intimate. This studio has a sparkling black ceiling that I love and is so close to many great breakfast, lunch, coffee, ice cream, and shopping places. If you don’t have a mat or blocks, don’t worry they have everything you need here. Just bring yourself and enjoy!

I love working out here. A few tips I have for ppl attending class.
Parking- There's a small lot next to the studio otherwise street parking is available.
Try to get there early I attend the 7:30p class on Mondays and it's always packed when I get there 15 mins before.

Great class! It was my first time at a BSY location and this one was finishing up being cleaned between classes when I walked in. I needed some connection with my body and the Yin class I took held poses for a minute or longer while focusing on breath work. Music was wonderful and the instructor, Marco did a great job at leading us. I will be taking another class soon.

Welcome to Oak Cliff Black Swan! Great space, heated yoga, great instructor. I'm so happy to have a heated space to move, flow, stretch and build strength. I have run out of reasons to leave Oak Cliff.
