I attended Sam’s yoga class for the first time yesterday, and it was a great experience. The session had a natural rhythm and a relaxed flow—more focused on stretching and releasing tension. Sam took time to ask everyone about any aches or pains, and tailored the class around those areas, which showed her knowledge and care as an instructor. The studio itself is clean and well-equipped with mats, blocks, bolsters, and towels, which made it really comfortable. It’s also conveniently close to where I live. Overall, very refreshing and relaxing—I’ll definitely be back.

Since purchasing my one month unlimited, I have tried various teachers, and each one is fantastic. Open sol flow was no exception. The class included breath work, inversions, meditation, and fantastic hands-on adjustments. I am falling in love with this studio, class by class, teacher by teacher.

If I lived in the Heights, I’d be at Sol Spirit 24/7/365. As it stands, I love an excuse to head over, and can’t wait to try more classes and teachers. I love the studio’s balance of movement and meditation, and the respect they show for yoga’s long lineage. It’s not a “get ripped” culture, even if that might happen incidentally!

Sol spirit is one of the many reasons why I love the JC Heights. I feel so connected to my community when I practice here. The teachers are so kind and knowledgeable. They take their dharma very seriously. The classes are always fun and challenging, but there are also relaxing restorative classes too. They hold fun workshops and community events. Liz the owner is an angel. I usually practice with Marc and Katie but every single teacher is amazing. I feel so good every time I leave. I couldn’t recommend this studio more.

The classes are Sol are always so intentional and accessible regardless of where you are. I’ve enjoyed a range of classes - everything from mommy and me, to Vinyasa, Yin, and special breath work sessions and have never been disappointed with the teachers, environment, or the practice they help you build. Highly recommend for anyone looking to deepen their yoga practice and build community!

I moved to Jersey City five years ago and Sol Spirit was the first yoga studio I visited and I've been visiting ever since. I immediately feel welcomed by the teachers and the space every time! I leave feeling refreshed after a yoga session & relaxed after a reiki sound bath. If you don't have anything to do around the holidays, Sol Spirit has your back.

Sol Spirit has been my yoga home in the Heights for 2 years, through a ton of physical injuries and spiritual/ emotional/ community cup-filling. It's a special place with an incredibly warm community and great instructors, each with their own unique and powerful approach.

UPDATE - 8/8/23
The instructors at Sol Spirit had an unexpectedly practical impact on my daily life. One day, I needed to fix something on top of a window and decided to get up on a chair. (I DON’T recommend this, use a step ladder folks!).

The chair slid as I got up on it with one foot and I almost wiped out, but my SolSpirit zen-yoga-ninja instincts kicked in and I was able to glide with stability and control on the chair into a one-legged balance thanks to my ever-evolving Tree Pose practice.

I thought about all of the instructors that taught me over 10 years and felt triumphant as I avoided a YouTube worthy wipe-out. I felt my aura surge to thank my instructors while striking a pose that made gravity (and living room furniture) respect my yoga skills.

Namaste!

ORIGINAL REVIEW - 7/7/2023

Sol Spirit is a community-based yoga studio - this place is instrumental is helping me regain and keep the sense of magic, wonder, relaxation, and clarity that can be elusive in such a busy, rushed, disconnected, and anxiety filled city.

Liz started the studio during a rough time – right after the COVID-19 pandemic and without a doubt kept the yoga community alive in the Jersey City heights. The teachers are world class and are all highly trained, capable, and intuitive.

I have taken almost all the classes and can confidently say that no matter which you decide to take, you are in great hands. It is very difficult to encapsulate how special this place is in words – take a class and find out!

This review is long overdue. I had the fortune of discovering Sol Spirit (JC) shortly after they opened. I’ve been casually practicing since 2014 and Sol is the only studio I’ve ever developed a relationship with.

Liz and her team are truly an exceptional bunch, all bringing their extensive knowledge and unique takes. I used to approach yoga as just a physical exercise but Sol changed my perspective and now has me embracing mind, body, and spirit. Special shoutout to Magda, she’s my favorite teacher and human.

Additionally off the mat, Sol Spirit has been kind enough to sponsor both of the Jersey City wide charity bicycle events I organized. They’re a frequent collaborator with various other businesses and events.

I wish them all much continued growth and success. 🧘🏽‍♂️

I am so happy to have Sol Spirit Yoga in the Heights. They offer a variety of classes throughout the week, all are currently in studio. Studio is cute with one room located on the first floor.

I found Sol Spirit while I was pregnant and have been going to classes every week for over a year now. It's such a warm and inclusive space, which quickly felt like a second home. Every teacher has their own style, but they're all genuinely lovely people focused on helping you get the best out of each class.

This is the first place I've ever walked into and immediately felt welcome. I feel so lucky to have found such a studio with class and event options that so well meet my needs in treating mental health and trauma. The teachers are wonderful and I am excited each week to attend the classes that have become such an important part of my weekly schedule. Check it out, you'll love it! I started with a class pack thinking I'd only come 2x/week but quickly realized I was addicted and needed more. If you are looking for your "third place," look no further.

Wow, absolutely love the vibe of this studio! Been looking for something lowkey, that focuses on the mental exercise as much as the physical in yoga. Not to knock them, but a lot of the other studios in town are great, but focus more on hot yoga or an overtly physical workout, whereas I look for yoga to help with anxiety and mental clarity. I took the Friday night Yin + Soundbath with Desiree to kick off my birthday weekend. I loved the way Desiree led the class, it felt gentle but I still got an EXCELLENT stretch, and the sound bowls added a layer of peace and relaxation. The range of classes offered at Sol Spirit fit the bill -- cmon, a Sunday night yoga class for anxiety? Perfect. Overall, I just like that they're offering something unique and different that others in the area. It's a paired back studio but has everything you need. The only disadvantage is being on Bloomfield Ave the parking can be a pain and also the honking of horns, but I was able to get so relaxed with Desiree's class, I hardly noticed. Also, it's next to the Cat Cafe, which is a fun bonus for us cat ladies :D

The Montclair studio is brand new and absolutely beautiful! You can feel the positive calming energy the second you walk in the room 🤍 The sun wall with natural sunlight pouring through is naturally healing, Chelsea is an amazing instructor. She demonstrate the poses very clearly, and has you focus on your breath! I’ve gone here twice, and I’ve had such a positive experience both times!! It’s the perfect practice to be mindful, stretch after boxing and deepen my yoga practice! It’s a perfect studio for anyone at any level, I highly recommend it!! ☀️

Update 7/8/24

Sol Spirit is a great little studio in the heart of the Jersey City Heights on Palisade Ave. This vibrant single room space offers a variety of classes ranging from Yin, Restorative classes, Sound Baths, Holistic Yoga classes -rooted in pranayama practices- to very “flowy” Vinyasa classes with good rigor, as well as HIIT yoga. They offer various workshops and even Yoga Teacher Training. The teachers at the studio are knowledgeable and each brings something unique to the community. They are friendly, authentic and deeply caring of their students, the studio, and honoring Yogic traditions. Beyond all of this, the most striking thing about Sol Spirit is the way in which the studio engages with the community. There have been many people that I’ve met who’ve found their special space in the Heights through their practice at Sol Spirit. The studio is engaged in local events and they often offer free or donation-based community classes and yoga in the park. Please check them out. The owner Liz is super approachable, enthusiastic and caring of each individual who walks through the doors. The studio is a clear reflection of her vision.

I really enjoy this studio (it’s beautiful, clean, and has great offerings). I particularly enjoy James as my instructor.

I’ve been practicing yoga for over five years intermittently, but consistently since early 2019. I enjoy the physical components of a deep yoga practice but I relish in the spiritual nature of a practice which guides me to a place deep within myself. James’ instruction is steeped in both the physical and spiritual aspects of yoga. His classes embrace tradition in a way that is gentle, friendly and inviting. He is deeply respectful of the roots of each asana. Working with James in my most recent yoga practices has helped me foster a deeper appreciation for the messages -both physical and spiritual- that Yoga offers. My experience with James as a teacher has left me with a deeper sense of gratitude for the instructor who can carefully and mindfully braid physical practice with spiritual observance.

I can say that since working with James as my teacher, I’m more comfortable with who I am as a practitioner and the spiritual elements instilled in class linger long after I’ve left the mat. I’m deeply grateful for James’ enthusiasm, insight, and vulnerability to share his love with his students.

Studio is in the perfect location in the heights of Jersey city. I love that they have free mat rentals, bolsters and cork blocks. I’ve taken classes with most of the teachers and they are amazing and so knowledgeable in the specific practices they teach. If you live in the area, try a drop to test out some teachers. I promise you will love the inclusiveness and warmth this studio has to offer! They also offer yoga teacher training in-studio which is a plus if you fall in love with yoga and are called to become a teacher. 10/10!

Sol is a special place. The cozy studio is dappled by sunlight and retains the loving energy that it’s very talented teachers (including the studio’s founder, Liz) radiate during the assorted classes offered here. The fact that you don’t need to bring your own mats or blocks, makes it even easier to find time to practice despite our increasingly hectic lives.

If you’re looking for community, movement, and a chance to connect with your breathe in a safe and loving space, Sol is for you. Hope to see you there soon!
