Our Yoga Place

"I did my first ever hot yoga class this week, the facility was pristine and cozy. Vivi was my instructor and she made me feel very welcome, she was funny and clearly knowledgeable. I would recommend the grounding spot to anyone who wants to practice yoga or wants to give it a try for the first time."

"They don’t play any music and the room smells bad, like old sweat. The teacher doesn’t do the poses. Instead of playing music, the teacher describes the poses by speaking them out, so she’s kind of chanting it. Like a kind of “hold it, hold it, hold it, release” type thing. “Put your hand here and your foot here and your…” Thr bright light was turned on when the class starts snd the teacher was high energy like “hello! Let’s do yoga!” Kind of thing. In like a work-out kind of way. It was a strange class. I was looking for something more relaxed. With chakra music maybe. It was also strange that no one was in reception when I left early and the place was closed. So I had to figure out how to unlock it to get out! I did like the warmness of the room. And that I could try it for free with the app ClassPass. I could only last 60 minutes. The class was for 75. In general I would say the vibe was a bit aggressive. And we were instructed in floor work to pull our knee towards our chest “until the hip joint hurts” even though later the teacher said she got her knees injured by going too aggressively to prove her ego earlier in life, when a teacher would sit on her to bend more. And she said later “ discomfort is ok but pain is never ok.” Which was a bit of a contradiction I thought. It was $5 to rent a yoga mat. And when I met them at reception behind the desk (I think the male was the owner and then the woman was the teacher) walking in, the discourse was a bit disjointed and awkward, so it set the vibe off a bit weird. From the way they were talking and the things they were selling in the shop up front, I think they were coming from a sort of ‘new age’ perspective. Full disclosure: I have done hot yoga before, and also regular yoga. But I’m definitely a beginner. I’ve done maybe 10 yoga classes in my life."

"By far the best yoga studio I’ve ever been to. It’s state of the art; absolutely next level. Nancy and Tom are beautiful people filled with knowledge and empathy, love and light."

"Incredible studio! Tom is SO kind and my word… what he’s done with his state of the art studio is positively spellbinding. Looking forward to a bazillion more classes at Our Place. 1,000/10 recommend"

"I have classpass & was in town visiting my parents when I stumbled upon this studio. Nancy walked me through everything. From a warm introduction to a description on what the class would entail. During class she was amazing at explaining the poses and would cue you to make sure you were getting the most out of your practice. I will definitely be back and If you are in the area it’s a must! I left feeling wonderful"
