Yoga Mechanics Montclair

Excellent combo class with pilates and yoga. This is a nice change for those who practice yoga exclusively. Jennifer is an excellent teacher proposing alternative movements for both experienced and new students. The class can be as challenging as you choose.

Came here to add a 5 star review and was so glad to see that they already had 5 stars!! I love this place so much that I decided to move away from a classpass membership and towards a membership directly with the studio because I wanted to support the magic they’ve built there. I’ve been coming here for a few months and the gentle accepting energy that they bring to their practices is helping me change my life. I’m in the middle of a bad breakup and have had a few (mortifying) weeping sessions during and after class, and every single teacher and staff member has offered me a hug. They even offered me a free sauna session and just the opportunity to linger around the studio as long as I needed. It is such a great and safe space to feel welcomed and loved.

I have really bad anxiety and my therapist suggested that I could try doing yoga and she was right. This studio is beautiful and all teachers are great. I love the meditations, themed talks and the knowledge shared by the teachers in each class, as a believer that inner peace and happiness comes from within and from how we manage our feelings towards the world. I come out of every class feeling very relaxed and with my thoughts in the right place :)

I moved to the area about a year ago and my first goal was to find an activity to keep me fit. I used ClassPass and tried all the yoga studios in Montclair, Nutley, and Bloomfield. And I can confidently say this was best studio. As soon as you walk in the studio you are welcomed to the not only the class but their community and you feel lighter like you dropped all of the life baggage out the door. The classes themselves center around alignment and strength as well as rest and quieting the mind. I’m now in the best shape I’ve been in since Covid and the best but least expecting benefit of the classes was the transformation of my mental health and mindfulness. This is coming from someone that couldn’t sit in silence without stressing out about something for more than 2 minutes. I recommend Yoga Mechanics to anyone and everyone!

A great studio, and Brandi is a terrific teacher. Her instructions are clear. Her practice thoughtfully develops each flow, providing excellent guidance for both the starting and experienced yoga student. She creates a warm and inviting environment to learn and practice. Highly recommend.
