I took the free community class. I haven’t practiced yoga in nearly five years and am a novice at best. I felt welcomed in this class and felt no pressure to try things I may not yet have the skills for. I would certainly come back to try again.

I signed up for one of their free community classes set to start at 10:30am. I arrived at 10:32am and the door was locked and no one would come to open it. It said on the door that they lock in between classes, however it did not mention that when I signed up for it. I drove 45 minutes from Portland for this. From the other reviews I’m sure it’s a good studio, but this was really disappointing and wish they had advertised that the door will be locked if it would be such a big deal to be a couple minutes late to a class. They didn’t pick up on the phone either when I called and waited outside.

Upstairs Yoga is one of the best things in Forest Grove! I started taking classes here about two years ago and LOVE IT. The space is warm and welcoming as are all the instructors and the owner. There is a class for whatever you are looking for - from a real workout challenge to relaxing in slow stretches. I love that they have frequent workshops and events like sound baths and new moon circles. I'm so happy that opening not long before the pandemic didn't adversely affect this wonderful local business!

I love Upstairs Yoga. The instructors are excellent, and the studio is warm, welcoming, and clean. Forest Grove is lucky to have this small business, I recommend it to anyone whether they be a seasoned yogi or someone who has never set foot on a yoga mat. This is a jewel of a business.

What a fabulous yoga studio! The space is beautiful and welcoming, adorned with interesting artwork and lots of calming plants. The big windows look out over the tree tops, and watching the trees move and bend in the wind gives a nice backdrop to practicing yoga. There are a variety of classes for every level, interest, and need. All the teachers are wonderful, and I've enjoyed Azy's classes so much. She is a masterful teacher, and with much knowledge and care she gently guides you through the practice. I always feel welcomed and safe in her classes. The practice is perfectly paced and I always leave feeling happier, lighter, and clearer after class.

My friend introduced me to Upstairs Yoga several months ago and I am so happy she did. I had never done a yoga class before, and I didn’t really know what to expect. But I knew the older I get, the harder it was to stay flexible and my desk job didn’t really help either. I had no idea I would fall in love with Yoga and with this studio. From the moment I stepped inside, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, with soft lighting, soothing music, and a warm, inviting ambiance. The studio is lovely decorated with lots of green plants that create a sense of serenity and vitality, and the air is infused with the scent of essential oils and subtle incense. It has natural wood floors, high ceilings, and large windows let in plenty of natural light. There are many props available, including blocks, bolsters, straps, blankets, and even mats for rent. I, however, like bringing my own mat that is a bit thicker for a little extra support.
Despite the fact that the first few sessions were truly challenging… I quickly realized that my flexibility would come back, inch by inch, class after class, with the gentle guidance of our instructor Azy. I love the restorative classes, deep stretch, beginner vinyasa, and gentle yoga. These are great for all levels of experience. Azy guides through the class with her warm smile and calming voice. She provides lots of modifications and variations that allow people of all levels to participate and get the best out of her class. Whether you're a beginner just starting out (like me) or an experienced yogi looking to deepen your practice, she has the knowledge and expertise to guide you and help achieve your goals.
The studio also offers workshops, as well as special events like full moon circles, sound healing baths (this was an out of this world experience… just wow!), and more. Upstairs Yoga provides the perfect atmosphere for deepening your practice, connecting with your breath, and experiencing a sense of inner peace and harmony. I had no idea yoga would have such a calming effect on me. It truly is destressing and restorative, for body and soul.
Overall, I highly recommend this studio to anyone looking to practice yoga, cultivate inner peace and relaxation, and connect with a community of like-minded people. It's truly a gem in our town, and I feel grateful to have such a beautiful and calming space to practice in.

I have only the best things to say about this place! Not only are the classes and teachers amazing, but the space is absolutely gorgeous and feels warm and welcoming. I practice here multiple times per week and it has become the best part of my day. I am noticeably more flexible and my mental health has significantly improved since joining this studio. 100% recommend to anyone looking for an unpretentious, caring, welcoming yoga studio.

This is my home base yoga studio and I love it. Great teachers, very positive energetic space, and a place where I can focus on and deepen my own practice without feeling self conscious. Highly recommend this studio!

I absolutely LOVED my experience at upstairs yoga. Once you quite literally walk “ up the stairs” you are met with a warm serene environment. Plenty of space to store your belongings and get comfortable in the space before heading into the yoga room itself. I love how spacious and wide the studio room is- for an intermediate level student I felt safe and not on display having extra room to stretch, breathe & be. Ra led the class and just, wow. She ticked all the boxes- seamless flow sequence, intentional thought behind the movements and message; an opening meditation that put me directly in the headspace to really lean into the practice. 12/10 recommend upstairs yoga and it’s an extra bonus if Ra is teaching.

This is my all time favorite yoga studio. It’s welcoming, beautiful, and has a good variety of classes and instructors. I always feel like a million bucks walking out of class. They also keep their calendar full of fun workshops/events, which I appreciate. 10/10 would recommend!

I’ve loved every class I’ve taken at Upstairs Yoga so far! Azy and Ra both lead their classes with such wonderful presence and guidance. They recently offered a donation based gratitude gentle flow class. It was a magical balance between the physical and spiritual aspects of yoga.

This weekend we rented the studio for a small event. I have to say this place is really nice and there is lots of parking for your guest. And the best part is that you have lots of room for your guest to move around. My favorite part was there were twinkle lights around the studio and on the stage. When you turn on the lights in the studio they aren’t the white bright LED lights that hurt your eyes. It’s soft yellow lighting which was really nice because the people were able to enjoy the battery operated candels on the table and the twinkle lights! The owner she is very nice, flexible, friendly. If we had any questions before or on the event we were more than welcome to reach out to her. My guests loved the place and my husband and I did to! Would totally have other events there in the future!

I attended a deep stretch class after work and the atmosphere was magically. The instructor provided a safe space for me to practice and encouraged me to move at my own pace. I will can’t wait to go back!

I went to my first yoga class at Upstairs Yoga last night. It is difficult to describe in words how wonderful the whole experience was. The instructor was accommodating to all levels and provided consistent and helpful instruction throughout the class in the most supportive and relaxing way. I am pretty new to yoga and felt I was challenged but also comfortable to push myself only as far as I needed to. The class ended around dusk and with the evening sun coming through the windows, the soft studio lighting, relaxing music, and even the sound of baby birds lightly chirping outside, the ambiance was nothing less than magical. I will definitely be back!
