Iyengar Yoga Institute of Pittsburgh 2721 Murray Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15217

"The Iyengar Yoga Institute of Pittsburgh is one of the few studios continuing to offer high quality yoga instruction on a daily basis. In spite of covid-19, IYIP has moved to a online streaming model which is easy to use - 24 hour class passes are available, which allow students to take as many classes as they wish during that 24 hour time period (about 2-3 classes offered per day, depending on the schedule). Since these yoga classes are streamed, I have been able to communicate my personal needs to my yoga teachers, such as if I have an injury and need modifications for the class that day. I am also able to get feedback from my teachers if I have any questions about the practice. Words cannot describe how much I appreciate the work that is done at Iyengar Yoga Institute of Pittsburgh. All of the teachers are extremely knowledgeable in yoga. They specialize in differentiating class for students with a wide variety of needs. If you are hesitant about starting or continuing your yoga practice from home, this is a great place to start. Contact Sara if you have questions!"

"Because I am over 60, I take supported yoga when I can. The instructors are so kind, caring & patient! I got a great work out there and felt welcome. Unfortunately it's a bit of a drive for me and life got in the way. I would love to start back, but need to find a good time that fits my schedule. Compared to other studios, Yoga on Centre is affordable and worth the effort!"

"I have been going to this yoga studio for at least ten years. The teachers are skilled and very knowledgeable. It is an extremely welcoming environment for the beginner and the seasoned student. The studio is beautiful and well-equipped with all you need for the Iyengar method. I have seen remarkable change in students' general health on many occasions. Everyone is welcome. It's almost like a second home where one can anticipate peace, acceptance, and skill growth at the level you find comfortable. So grateful I landed here way back when."

"I've recently turned to yoga at the advice of my chiropractor. I have absolutely zero previous experience, so I decided to join a yoga studio that had a special introductory offer for new people. The plan was to start with yoga for beginners, but this class ended with us doing shoulder stands on day 1. I did not go back to that studio and researched other studios in the area, that's how I found Yoga on Centre. I am primarily drawn to the studio's mission statement and its focus on a more holistic approach to yoga that incorporates breathing techniques and addressing each student's individual needs and abilities. I strongly recommend this studio and its yoga teachers for those of us who've experienced chronic physical pain."

"If you're a beginner, the teachers at Yoga on Centre will get your yoga practice off to a great start with their focus on your alignment and your understanding of the relationship between your body, your mind and the yoga postures. If you are more established in your practice and, like me, have picked up some bad habits from other teachers or you have some deep blockages and misunderstandings that are impeding your progress but you can't seem to get past, the teachers can help you identify these issues and unlock them. I had a consistent practice for about 5 years before going to Yoga on Centre and considered myself a serious student, but after 2 years I have come face to face with very deep issues where previously I had only empty space. My awareness and ability have grown through the unique insight and instruction compassionately shared by each teacher at Yoga on Centre. Highly recommended!"
