Been going to yin yoga weekly for about 2 months, I felt relief in the tension my body was holding on to. It’s a real beautiful way to interlace the mind and body. Shout out to YinNoir as it introduced me to Jamila, an incredible mindful and intelligent human, and guide in the Yin practice~

Big gratitude for the wellness and uplift Rachel and the Yin Yoga Space team are curating! Two experiences in, with excellent affirmations, meditations, yoga practice and yoga practitioners, I’m grateful and impressed. The ambiance of soft light contrasting with shadows, along with golds and black in the space yield a sense of sacred place where your mind can surrender to whatever you need in a moment, and moment to moment through well-facilitated movement. The yoga support equipment is all that, too. Just do Yin Yoga there and you’ll understand.

Jasmine lead an amazing class. First of all the space is serene and unique. Jasmine made me feel very welcome. Yin yoga 1 is for all levels. I hadn’t stretched since 2020 and I did fine. I could tell there were others who were in much better shape and also felt revived and had a good work out. Don’t miss out on a chance to stretch and make shapes with Jasmine!

Free warm tea. Dim lighting. A room filled with people collectively coping with moments of stillness. Guided by soft tones and supportive word choice. Draped with a heavy blanket and sounds of the rain tap on the skylight. My palms are up. Accepting the energy around me. Only to have a warm face cloth gently placed in my hand with scents of bergamot. My nervous system smiles. And out the door I go. Taking on what comes next with more ease. This space is special to me. Thank you Yin Yoga Space.

I love this place. It's a reprieve from a very tense world. I've found every instructor to be lovely and knowledgeable. This place is the business equivalent to a warm cup of tea on a very cold day (and they usually have fresh tea so..that's nice too). I have chronic back pain that has been alleviated with a combination of Yin and Pilates. That alone makes this studio worth it. I also think it's a great price for the unlimited package. My only hope is in the future there are more class times in the morning or during the day, but even if they don't end up offering them, this is still a class worth working into your schedule.

I had a feeling I shouldn’t have booked this Yin 2 yoga class with Anika De Vore, and I wish I had listened to it. Her bio didn’t inspire confidence, but I decided to give it a try. I was feeling great before class, thanks to a wonderful session at another studio last Thursday. Unfortunately, from the moment I arrived, I didn’t feel welcomed. The class itself didn’t provide the relaxation and grounding I expect from Yin Yoga, instead, it left me feeling anxious. I don’t think she fully understands the healing and restorative nature of Yin Yoga, and it felt more like she was just going through the motions rather than creating a meaningful experience. I personally wouldn’t take another class with her nor would I recommend this studio..

This is the studio I have gone to the most lately, when I am in town. I love that they offer late classes and it is never super packed. I have been to some local studios with over 30 people in a class and it feels impossible to focus for me. It is also super easy to park nearby at night which does not go unnoticed! I enjoy the candles and the sound system is quality.

The only improvement across the board here would be to add some spice to the classes. Maybe a sound bath or some regular theme some days of the week. For teachers, maybe an intention or theme to narrate the class. My favorite yoga teacher when I lived in Seattle always had some quotes and area of life to contemplate that was different every class. She always had some wisdom or insights I enjoyed a lot and also helped focus when your mind goes every which way. Overall right now it’s not THE ONE. But it is a pretty good studio!

I don't often write reviews, but I wanted to take the opportunity to do one for Yin Yoga Studio. I have been going there for a few months now, and this place is like no other studio. Solely focusing on the practice of Yin yoga makes such a difference when it comes to the space for practicing it within. I've practiced many forms of yoga for many years throughout my life, and while I've taken Yin from other studios, I've never had the experience that I've had with the teachers and this space.

To start, the space itself is warm and inviting and welcoming. It's a dark gray studio with gold accents, which I find lovely and refreshing and also provides a richer experience in my opinion because you feel more held with the space and cozy. Space is beautiful itself with wood floors, wood-beam ceiling and the design of it with candles everywhere just sets the mood and helps you to feel instantly calm when you walk in the door.

The teachers are amazing and really hold space for you, others, and the practice. The purpose of Yin itself is to hold poses for longer periods of time so they aren't trying to rush you through it but to help you listen to your own body and hold space for what you need in the practice. Yin itself is a great practice to help slow down the body and mind, and this form is s20. I came to this practice recently to try to find some calm in my body from ongoing rauma and grief in my life. I found pretty soon that this studio and practice in the way that they offer it is unlike the traditional yoga in the US mainstream that can be what I would refer to as "gym" or "Instagram" yoga as it is so much more than that. That has its place but this is on a different level.I find that it's a space that I can allow myself to slow down and whether I'm thinking about things or not it's helped me to work through some of the physical and somatic responses I have to everyday life or working through traumas or emotional things as well.

This studio really allows you to hold quiet, calm space for yourself to provide whatever it is you need to feel nourished within that hour. We are so busy with life and others that we don't often take the time for ourselves, to just sit, to be in our bodies in a way that's healthy and that provides deeper nourishing than other types of practices. Yin is not a practice that you have to hold like traditional yoga, I find it's the most passively active practice that I experience. The point is to sink in and allow and relax in on the floor poses that don't need to be done in specific alignment or strength but based on what your body feels and needs in the moment. And that practice translates to mental state as well. It's been so nourishing for my nervous system to try to get some calm in my body, and I can say it's the thing that is helping support myself through depression, trauma, anxiety, and grief.

This studio offers that and more for anyone who just wants to get a good relaxing stretching session, to those who are more spiritually inclined or even just want a safe and welcoming space to be in their body and do something self-nourishing care.

They also have really great events like a live cellist who will play during the course of a session, or a harp player or breath work, and a monthly yin/yang class. They support an inclusive and all welcoming environment for all races, genders and orientations and even provide late night donation based classes for those in the sex or service Industries as means for access/self care because they don't often get to with typical schedules offered at studios.

I'm very grateful to the owner and all of the teachers who contribute to making this studio what it is. It's truly a gem in the community, and there's nothing else like it (literally, it's the first in the US). This studio has been a lifeline for me as well as others I've introduced it to. I would definitely recommend checking it out and taking advantage of the free intro week as well. You won't regret it!

Come for the yin, come back for all the benefits that you’ll see trickling (or pouring) into your life as a result. It got me through some gnarly life events (including Covid grad school). Couldn’t imagine my life without it now! Sarasvati is an amazing human and wealth of resources and knowledge - do yourself a favor and check out her classes. The same goes for the other incredible teachers at this studio. So much gratitude for Rachel for opening Yin Yoga Space- it is a life saver/changer!!!

I can’t recommend this studio more. I had never done Yin before checking them out and now it has become part of my routine. The instructors make you feel welcome and go above and beyond to offer modifications, to assure you can do the poses. They have all the props to borrow and the space is designed so well. It has become my relaxing oasis. Rachel does a lot of the evening classes and is truly the best!

Absolutely beautiful space, setting, energy and set of gifted, compassionate instructors. After a move from Seattle and in search of my new yoga 'home', I landed here on a Wednesday afternoon and met Annie, who has a true gift in her teaching and spirit. The studio is warm and beautiful, the practitioners all lovely and welcoming and the yin practice one of the top I have experienced in my 20+ years of practicing. Their vision to serve as a place of community and solitude has surely been achieved and I cannot wait for my weekly class and the unfolding ahead.
