Nique’s Sunday class was great! She is patient with beginners and passionate about peoples’ experience. That was my impression and it was my first time taking the class.

I went for the first time last week! It was amazing. My first ever yoga class. The instructor was very humble and welcoming. It's a donation based studio which is awesome! I loved the vibes and people that walked in the door. Helpful, clean, and peaceful!

I've been attending classes off and on since they opened 8 years ago and it's my favorite yoga studio! Great location, calming atmosphere, and every instructor I've met is welcoming and offers adjustments for your level. I recommend Yoga Sol to anyone - the donation/ pay what you can model is so helpful- and check out their live streaming classes as well!

I've been going to Yoga Sol for over 5 years now and I love this donation-based studio. Completely judgement-free environment, teachers who are caring and really know yoga, and a beautiful studio. They even support small, local businesses by including their products in their studio retail. The donation policy allowed me to give what I could when funds were tight and pay the full amount once I was hired full time. I love Yoga Sol and it will continue to be my yoga home.

Yoga Sol does a great job of providing a variety of classes at different times and they are really good at leading us through all the moves while demonstrating at the same time. They also give harder and easier versions of moves to accommodate a variety of students. They’ve made it really enjoyable!

Yoga Sol is my home studio! I love the variety of classes, and there are so many amazing instructors. The livestream classes have been a great experience with seamless tech as well I love Yoga Sol and I love supporting this local small business instead of national yoga corporations.

Yoga Sol has been keeping me sane (and in shape!) during the stay at home order that caused many studios to shut their doors. Especially love the sculpt and candlelight classes. Would highlight recommend and plan to frequent this studio when it re opens for in person classes!

You won't find a more welcoming, encouraging, cheery community than the one at Yoga Sol. If you want to leave your practice feeling energized, supported and ready for the next class already, this is the spot for you!

Yoga Sol is such a safe and accessible place for anyone interested in yoga. The instructors are so kind and welcoming. The range of classes from restorative yoga to a high-intensity yoga sculpt provide a great variety. Some yoga studios can be intimidating, but this one truly isn't. Come as you are, no matter you're level, and you'll be accepted and respected here.

The pay-what-you-can style is so great for anyone who can't afford or commit to a membership most studios require. Yoga Sol has also done a GREAT job throughout COVID-19, maintaining a sense of community and providing Zoom classes to keep us all connected, flowing and in shape. So thankful for this place!

I had an amazing experience at the Friday night Candlelight Flow! The space is very intimate and relaxing. Our instructor, Amanda, was very encouraging, sociable, and exuded a lot of positive energy in the room. The candles were a nice touch as well. All in all, one of the best yoga experiences I have had. I definitely recommend it, and hope to go back soon!

Being part of yoga sol has helped me grow as a student.. This community and pay what you can is wonderful. I am so lucky to be here and to have a great group of people to be with and to grow with.

This is my favorite studio in the cities - I have been coming here since I was a broke student at the U and it was the only place I could afford to continue my practice, now that I have more to give, I am proud to support a studio keeping yoga accessible. Wonderful instructors keep the practice grounded in yoga philosophy without any pretention.

This is one of my favorite studios in Minneapolis! As a recent graduate, I really appreciate the pay-what-you-can mentality. Many new students to yoga can get intimidated by the steep costs of starting a membership at a studio, but this helps to encourage newcomers to the community! Candlelight Flow is one of my favorites and offers an incredible finish to a day, or start to a week.

Yoga Sol has been my yoga home for the past 3 years now. I still have yet to find a studio that matches the level of compassion, community, and over-all good vibes that Yoga Sol provides. Drop-in classes allow me to create my own schedule without having to worry about making a monthly membership fee worth it.

Yoga Sol is my happy place. I try to get to class five times per week. The teachers are super sweet and the environment is welcoming and peaceful. My favorite classes are Vinyasa, Sculpt and Candlelight Flow!

I love Yoga Sol! I appreciate how this studio is donation-based, it is more accessible than other studios with fixed rates. The yoga sculpt classes are amazing workouts, and Joshlyn really pushes you to be better every single workout. I love the atmosphere and the vibe of Yoga Sol, and I'll definitely be returning every Monday night for sculpt!👌

Definitely recommend this friendly little studio - the donation-based model makes it easy to drop in or participate without paying a ton or being judged for paying what you can. Love the staff and fresh remodel of the studio :)

This place is amazing! The instructors are so nice and welcoming. Yoga sculpt is helping me get back in shape. I also appreciate that I can donate what I can for each class and I dont feel judged when I can only pay $5 for example.

I also enjoy the upbeat music that comes with yoga sculpt. I like to work out to upbeat music as it motivates me to keep going.

I enjoy coming here for yoga classes, they are usually exactly what my body needs to de-stress. The space is beautiful & quaint. I am living on a very tight budget & currently not working so the "pay what you can" concept seemed perfect for my situation. But, after going to a handful of classes I have noticed how uncomfortable the teachers makes me feel when I can't hand over more than 2$ for a donation. It completely defeats the purpose of the "pay what you can" concept if students who want to go to classes feel uncomfortable/judged/unsafe by litterally paying what they can. I understand that the teachers want to make money (at a nonprofit that gets plenty of donations and state/county funding), but not at the cost of making students feel less than or like they shouldn't be there in the first place. If Yoga Sol is a donation/pay what you can studio, then the students should have no negative feelings about donating way below the "suggested".

Edit: January 5th 2019
I appreciate that you have taken the time to reply and let me know that my feedback matters. I really loved coming to Yoga Sol. I haven't been back since posting the first part of my review, but I am willing to go to the studio again to gauge the experience. I love yoga, and with more studios I can afford to go to the better off I am. So thank you again.

I've been going to Yoga Sol for over a year now and I find it to be inconsistent.

Some instructors definitely know what they are doing. They help with poses, give positive feedback, and include mindfulness into their classes. A couple of instructors seem ill-prepared for class or unwilling to help students. The chakra series in January was frustrating. I asked for help in-class. The instructor just said, "try harder" and walked away.

Another major issue I've experienced is instructors subbing for others, which happens fairly frequently. It seems there isn't a good internal system in place to make sure the class will follow the same pacing and focus. For example, the Candlelight Flow & Yin class I went to tonight was taught by a substitute who treated the class like vinyasa with some yin at the end.

Love this place. It is a pay as you go studio, so you are not stuck with an expensive monthly membership if you end up not going very often. The classes are great and so are the instructors. They remember your name and are always pleasant. The studio is relaxing and clean.
