❤️&Soul is DMV's hidden gem. My first practice here filled my heart with so much joy and wish I had joined earlier. There's something warm about hearing giggles aroud the room while sweating and shaking. Isabella and Laura are the perfect duo who challenge you with such care. If you're looking for a traditional practice, you'll find it here in Fairfax...a very rare find!

HeartNSoul is one of a kind. The teachers are thoughtful and wise. The members are super lovely. I was happy to find community within the studio. My favorite class is the Monday Ashtanga led by Isabella. Definitely a studio worth visiting. ❤️

I have been to many yoga studios over the years, and none has compared to Heart N Soul. I love practicing at this beautiful studio. The teachers are so experienced and devoted, and welcoming and accommodating of all levels. I was new to Ashtanga yoga when I first came to Heart N Soul. The teachers get to know each of the students, providing encouragement, modifications if needed, and awesome adjustments. This is a wonderful yoga community. Words can't do it justice!

Wonderful studio. There isn’t anything like it in Northern Virginia! Isabella and Laura are so warm and welcoming: they set the vibe for the whole studio. Be prepared to be challenged and surprised by your growth. I just attended a fabulous workshop with Jessyca - using Sound bowls, Gongs and other percussives for healing. Whether you want a chill community class, a high energy vinyasa class or traditional Mysore style Ashtanga - this is the place!

My yoga journey with Heart N Soul started before the pandemic in the studio and continued during the pandemic (online). I loved the morning practices, the yoga community at HNS was so warm and welcoming and Isabella so encouraging, I felt in love with the morning practices. We worked hard and felt good in our bodies. Her encouragement and gentle prodding have allowed me to get into poses that I had never dreamed of before. I am very grateful for that.

In my 12-year journey as an Ashtanga practitioner, half of them under Isabella's wing, I've come to realize that she understands my body better than I do. Her constant encouragement pushes me past mental barriers and physical limits, adapting to the changes my body undergoes with thoughtful options. Her smile speaks volumes, replacing any need for "I told you so." Isabella has witnessed not only my progress in practice but also my personal growth. From Yoga retreats in the Dominican Republic with our teacher John Scott to practicing alongside Isabella and Laura in the studio, which feels like a second home, I always feel secure and nurtured. Though I can recount these experiences, the depth of feeling defies words.

Laura and Isabella are not only highly skilled but also incredibly attentive, ensuring that each yogi receives personalized guidance. The variety of classes caters to all levels, allowing both beginners and advanced practitioners to find their flow. The studio’s commitment to creating a positive and inclusive space truly makes it stand out. Whether you’re seeking relaxation or a challenging workout, Heart N Soul is a haven that fosters well-being and growth. I highly recommend it to anyone on their yoga journey.

If you want to learn Ashtanga, Vinyasa, & Restorative yoga, Heart n Soul studio is where you want to go. It is the finest studio in Fairfax with the most knowledge and encouraging instructors.

I'm one of the Senior students that has been under Isabella's guidance for over 17 plus years. Isabella is a unique instructor. Her ability to guide, teach and encourage each student is an art. She takes the time to know each individual and with her encouragement she will take their practise on a yoga journey. She truly is an amazing instructor!

One of Isabella's students Laura, who is a co-owner of the studio has been an awesome addition to Heart n Soul. Laura is an also an excellent & caring instructor. She adds the creative menu to the choice of classes that are offered.

Heart n Soul offers many classes for the body and soul. Each instructor is warm, caring and encouraging! Heart n Soul truly is the finest studio in Fairfax!

It has been a joy to learn Yoga from Isabella and Laura in the warm and welcoming Heart N Soul Yoga Studio and community. These teachers do not just teach Yoga classes, they inspire and lead by example living the traditional Yoga lifestyle: they are students of world renown scholar practitioners who regularly travel on "yatra" pilgrimages throughout India and South Asia, study and recite from Sanskrit sacred texts daily, maintain a wholesome sattvic diet and lifestyle and host or volunteer at local Satsang spiritual gatherings in the area and abroad. You will not find more experienced and dedicated Yoga teachers with a balance of traditional discipline and loving kindness for every student taught, at all skill levels, ranging from first timers to those seeking advanced teacher training.

I have practiced yoga 10+ years in the DMV, hopping between styles and studios. It wasn’t until I stumbled upon Heart N Soul that I felt I could finally stop my endless searching for my yoga home. Isabella and Laura go beyond typical yoga instruction, seek to understand each individual that enters the space, and cater their teaching to accommodate every student’s unique needs. They truly put their “heart and soul” into teaching and seek to offer programs that benefit the community. I’ve learned so much over the past year, and my practice has never been stronger, and I credit that to the dedication and expertise of Isabella and Laura!

Isabella had been my teacher for more than 8 years. No words can describe the effort she puts in for her students. She explains each asana with love and patience. I’m a yoga teacher myself and honestly whatever I’ve learned had been through practicing with her although I got my certificate from another studio . She is the one that introduced me the real yoga how it should be done and I will always will be greatful to her. My mantra is if you want to do yoga the way it should be done you must go to heart and soul . When you go and experience it you will know what I’m talking about.
Namaste

I have been practicing with Isabella for 15 years and cannot say enough wonderful things about her teaching. She takes the time to get to know each person who comes to her studio and is in tune with what each person needs. She knows when to push and challenge you and when you need something different to have a successful practice. She and Laura have created such a warm, welcoming, and peaceful environment. It is a joy to come to the studio and practice with them!

When I first came to Heart N Soul studio I was a novice yogi and scared that I wouldn't be able to handle it. However, Isabella knew exactly what I needed and all my weak points, she has taught me all the techniques, tips and tricks to push my boundaries and improve myself. I have since loved the practice so much that I felt sad & anxious about skipping classes (due to unforeseen circumstances). I even take more classes from Laura then Millie... Each has their own unique style that I greatly enjoy.

I highly recommend Heart N Soul to anyone looking for that perfect place for ballancing the body, mind and soul, and the tutelage is top notch!

I joined Heart N Soul thru the encouragement of my sister, hoping they would be able to help me recover from several injuries over the past few years (ACL, broken ankle) that have affected my ballance, and caused lower back pain. And it's working! Thank you Heart N Soul!!!

AMAZING FAIRFAX YOGA TEACHER!
I have been taking classes with Isabella at Heart and Soul Yoga Studio for 13 years. A friend at my local gym recommended Isabella all those years ago and thanks to her inspiring teaching I became hooked on this practice. I have taken many yoga classes with a variety of teachers from here in Fairfax and in my travels and so I can say that those of us in the Fairfax area are so fortunate to have Isabella teaching here.

Whether Isabella is teaching Vinyasa flow or Ashtanga or Rocket, her knowledge of anatomy, her individual attention to each student’s needs, and the encouragement she provides to reach beyond your own expectations sets her apart.

I came into this practice a complete beginner and with Isabella’s gentle nudges have grown to increase my flexibility and strength, and surprisingly also opened my heart because as you gain a greater appreciation for your physical body you boost your mental wellbeing too.

Take advantage of this wonderful Fairfax yoga studio community and this amazing teacher!

This studio is hands down the best I’ve ever been to in my 15 + years of practicing yoga (Isabella has been my main teacher during those 15 years- even with moving away for a few years).

Isabella has a heart for her students and talent immeasurable in her knowledge of yoga and anatomy; inclusive of how it works for each individual who steps through her and Laura’s yoga studio doors. Thankful for how she challenges me, yet meets me exactly where my body needs.

I was new to ashtanga, but found this studio through a family member. So happy that I attended! The next hour and a half was challenging but gratifying. My teacher Laura was so accommodating despite my unfamiliarity with this type of practice, and the other class members (many whom practice every day) were supportive and lovely as well. What a welcoming environment. I look forward to returning to this studio the next time I’m in the area.

My first four one on one classes at the Heart N Soul Yoga Studio were a present from my husband. He could not have given me a better present. Since the first class, my weekly lesson with Isabella has been something to look forward to. I have never been into yoga before this experience, I actually always thought that it was quite boring. I guess that the problem was that until now I never stepped into the right environment and met the right teacher. Laura and Isabella have created such a welcoming and warm environment that as soon as I step into the studio, my mind fly away from anything outside those walls. Yoga at the Heart N Soul studio is as physical (and it can be quite physical!!!) as it is mental. I haven't taken a class with Laura yet, but Isabella is just amazing. She is knowledgeable, passionate, patient, pushy to the right extent and careful at the same time. I have taken the one on one classes with Isabella and also some group classes. It is really a great environment, which I would highly recommend. I am extremely grateful to have met Isabella and Laura and stepped into the Heart N Soul studio.

I just took Isabella’s Wake Up Vinyasa class. I already know that Isabella knows her anatomy since we both went to massage school. I also know that her students revere her. Now that I have taken her class, I have experienced that she is a master of her craft. What a privilege and honor to be led by her in a yoga practice. With much gratitude, mnc

I can't recommend this shala enough! Isabella and Laura have a top-notch operation going. In the short period I practiced here, my Ashtanga postures progressed, and I was given clear feedback on how to improve and maximize my flow. There frankly aren't enough Mysore-style shalas and this one is especially good!

My kid and I did a drop-in class at this beautiful studio and loved the energy it brings. As a proud member of the LGBTQIA community 🏳️‍🌈 and queer yogis, we have been to many yoga spaces around the country and none have been as welcoming and affirming as Heart N Soul. Isabella, Laura and students were all so kind and inviting. No pretentious attitudes, just hearts full of love and inclusivity. This is indeed a safe space for our community and we look forward to coming back the next time we are in town.

I started my practice with the Heart and Soul studio for almost a year before committing to the 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training. It was one of the best decision I made and the journey had been amazing. It was a very unique, powerful and eye opening experience for me. This training with Isabella brought me out of my comfort zone and challenged me in ways I had not imagined. Isabella not only shared her knowledge and wisdom but poured her heart into all of us. She would go above and beyond to give us the tools and confidence to lead the class. The thing I loved about her training was that she gave us plenty of practical opportunities to adjust students and lead the class.  By the time of graduation, I felt both confident and competent to begin to instruct. I would highly recommend Heart and Soul Yoga Teacher Training to anyone who wants to make a difference in their own personal development as well as in the lives of others.

The absolute best studio and instructors! I wouldn't say I like yoga, but my body needs yoga. Isabella is the only reason I practice! She is incredibly knowledgable and knows just how to push me to get what I need out of my practice. This is the only studio I enjoy going to! I've been a student for almost 8 years and only continue to practice because they are the BEST! I highly recommend trying Heart N Soul, whether you are a beginner or an expert. Isabella will customize your class experience to suit your needs and you will become a loyal yogi too!

This place is a really special and amazing practice, but it needs to be transmitted through teachers who care and in a special space set aside for yoga. Isabella and Laura are committed to their teaching as close to how they learned, as possible and you can really see this come through in their dedication to their students. They will be there almost everyday without exception. I took both in person and mostly virtual classes with them.
Their commitment is to their yoga space. I had a few special need requests, they gladly made sacrifices and accommodated for me. Thank you. Namaste

This ashtanga studio is an oasis for health and wellbeing both mentally and physically. Expect to be challenged and to leave feeling like you can take on the world.

Isabella is a knowledgeable and professional yoga instructor. She has helped me enjoy so much growth in my ashtanga practice. She has a wonderful ability to see where you need to develop more in order to progress further in the practice and how to coach you through to the next step. I would recommend joining her community if you want to develop and improve your ashtanga practice.

Amazing teacher. I made so much progress Physically/ mentally With Isabella in last 1.5 years that I never thought i would be able to do in my 10 years of yoga practice. She tells you when your body is not ready to do poses, but will show you the path to get there “safely”. I have learned to face my current status / limit, and patience to work with my own body.
She is caring, has deep knowledge to personalize practices to fit individual needs, and of all beautiful person.
Hope to continue my yoga journey with her many years.
