District Yoga

Yoga Instructor

Bikram yoga, the original hot yoga class, is a series of 26 static yoga postures with 2 breathing exercises practiced in a heated room. Each class provides a full body workout that stretches and strengthens every muscle in the body. In addition to enhancing strength, cardiovascular endurance, and flexibility, every class is a 90-minute escape from the stressors of daily life. You will leave feeling reinvigorated, stronger, and profoundly relaxed. This class is for ALL levels.

Yogi Matsyendranath is acknowledged as the first human hatha yoga instructor. His chief disciple, Gorakh Nath, was a guru to Yogi Swatmarama, author of the Hatha yoga Pridapika.

“The main objective of Hatha yoga is to create an absolute balance of the interacting activities and processes of the physical body, mind, and energy. When this balance is created, the impulses generated give a call of awakening to the central force, which is responsible for the evolution of human consciousness. If yoga is not used for this purpose, its true objective is lost.”

    I've been going to this studio for about 6 months, and have really enjoyed it. The owner Whitney has an exceptional eye for talent, and hires great teachers.

    There are many studios that are good, but there's no studio like district yoga. There's amazing Yogis and amazing teachers encouraging you to get better and helping you throughout your practice. This is by far my favorite studio, and highly recommend it!

    I've been coming here regularly for about a year now. I have a particular infatuation with the series 48 and original 84 classes. I have learned so much at this studio. Whitney is so fun to be around, and incredibly knowledgeable. He opened up so many new possibilities for me. I tell everyone who asks me how I got my deeper backbends to go see him.
    The community is great, the yoga is hot and the facilities are well kept. Oh, and be sure to say hi to Bunny when you stop by.

    A great place to practice. My favorite thing about district yoga is that the instructors, especially the owner, show that they care about pushing your practice forward. The individual coaching and attention I get has been instrumental in helping me progress in the poses. The other reviews about community, nice practice space, etc.. are true too. Highly recommend this place.
