I had the most wonderful experience at Swan River Yoga, especially in a class led by Caroline. Her teaching style is incredibly peaceful and uplifting, creating a space that feels both calming and lighthearted. The class was deeply grounding, but we also shared moments of laughter, which made it feel even more connected and natural.

When Caroline came over to help adjust my pose, I felt an immediate sense of calm—more than I had in weeks. I’ve been navigating some difficult life events, and for the first time in a while, I left class feeling at peace. That sense of stillness and presence is something I’ve struggled to sustain lately, but Caroline’s energy and guidance made it possible, even if just for that hour.

I’m so grateful for this class and for Caroline’s teaching. If you're looking for a yoga practice that nurtures both body and mind, I highly recommend Swan River Yoga and taking a class with Caroline.

I absolutely love this space, and all the instructors are wonderful! There’s a variety of yoga styles offered, vinyasa, power flow, yin, sound , meditation. Attached to it is a wonderful vegan cafe. The building used to be a library, it still has a beautiful mural in the main yoga hall. I am so glad to have found this place after researching various yoga studios in New Orleans. I highly recommend Swan River Yoga Mandir! Thank you for making yoga available to me in such a lovely location!

I have enjoyed several Kundalini intensives with Steph Smith at Swan River, and they have been life-changing and so healing for me. I have practiced yoga for a decade in my journey through grief and PTSD/panic disorder. I was only recently introduced to Kundalini after a friend recommended Steph’s intensives. I will always think of my mind and life now in two phases- before kundalini and after kundalini. My mind simply functions differently now that I have integrated what Steph has taught me into my everyday life. I’m so grateful to Steph and to Swan River for offering this to the community. Love and Light!

Really wanted to love this studio because the actual space is gorgeous but the class I took, 4:45 on Thursday was extremely basic, I dont consider myself a hard core yogi at all and wouldn't even feel comfortable taking a intermediate class at another studio, but I left this class feeling like i learned and accomplished nothing, the teacher didn't really seem to know what she was doing an kept getting confused, she did zero adjusting during the class and mostly walked around aimlessly. I really should have known when there was only 3 other women in the class, if the studio had a first class discounted price like most other studios, I probably would feel more inclined to come back and try another teacher but after paying $18 for what felt like a beginners YouTube class, I'm to scared to try again, which is unfortunately because I live so close.

LOVE this place. The staff is super nonjudgmental and helpful. The perfect place to go if you’ve never done yoga, I highly recommend this studio. They made me feel right at home and as if I could be without interference.

I went into the center's store - the Bhagavad Gita for sale was not Srila Prabhupada's. Instead they had for sale Radhanath Swami's book and a Gita with some other commentaries. I found this to be very, very sad. Do the Swan River Yoga owners just not get it?

The Swan River mandir is a place of peace and healing and growth. I am new to all of this and have seen amazing changes in my body and spirit in just a month's time. I also am grateful to Good Karma cafe downstairs. Their blessed vegan food is transforming me.
So many different levels of yoga; so many different instructors. Come to Swan River. You'll be glad you did. <3

This is one of the most beautiful studios in the city, with three floors and lots of open space. The quality of teachers is excellent, and they offer Jivamukti, Anusara, and their own Swan River styles, plus other classes, workshops, and cummunity offerings.
