GoogleBest yoga studio in Melbourne. I love the Ashtanga method. The teachers here are all amazing. Lots of attention to detail and longer classes. Teachers here don’t skip over the spiritual and meditative aspects of yoga. It’s a beautiful light-filled studio and the community of students and teachers is a special thing to be part of. Highly recommended.
If you’re into Ashtanga and you can feel the energy of a place, then you’ll love this space! All teachers are lovely and take your individual practice and needs at heart. They are able to tailor their classes to the most experienced yogis as much as to newbies, without neglecting the yoga philosophy. Plus this place has a magic atmosphere you’ll feel as soon as you enter there.
This is such a wonderful place to practise yoga and I can't recommend it enough. The teachers are so so generous with their time, energy and spirit. I am so grateful for how invested they've been in learning about and caring for my body. They treat all bodies as capable of yoga, regardless of injuries or issues, and teach a whole range of modifications. I also love that they share insights about the philosophy of yoga and that all their physical adjustments are also rooted in an awareness of the more subtle and psychological elements of yoga. It's a wonderful place and I hope others find it and get to benefit :)
I am regularly practicing Mysore at this studio, to my gratefulness and enjoyment. The studio has a warm, friendly and respectful atmosphere. All teachers are wonderful people with many years of teaching experience. Very advanced as well as less advanced people are welcome, and taught on their level aiming to develop their practice. I have been able to develop my practice a lot thanks to them. I can recommend this studio to anyone. Keep up the fantastic work!!!
This place is amazing! I'm at the very start of my journey with Ashtanga and having been attending this centre for a month. From the very moment I first entered the building Ilaria and Matt made me feel so welcome and at home. I find there's a great mix of classes to support the development of my practice, meeting me where I'm at while also providing space for me to explore further. I've worked mainly with Ilaria and I feel she invests her energy to support me and tailors positions to my level, while also just being so lovely and interesting. The building is beautiful and there are also showers, which are handy if I go straight to work after class. Thanks team :)
