Yoga From the Heart

Oct 2022

I'm so glad I found Yoga from the Heart. This tranquil studio is located in Avon Village and has quickly become my go-to stress-relieving place. I signed up for their new student special, three weeks of unlimited classes, which gave me the option to try out any of their classes. It was a great deal and a great way to see if the studio would be a good fit for me. It was, so I signed up for a 6-week Intro to Yoga series with Jenna, and I'm so glad I did. Jenna is a great teacher with a calming and supportive presence.Their website is well designed and gives detailed descriptions of all the classes offered (there are quite a few!), and you can easily book classes through their website. As for COVID precautions, the studio has two HEPA filters running at all times and requires proof of vaccination. These extra levels of safety allow you to practice yoga in peace.

So excited to find a yoga studio close to my home. They practice in a way that brings me such joy! If you're in the area I highly recommend taking a class. Small studio. Very easy going.

I've been meaning to write this for a while; as a teacher heading back to school next week, I realize how much I'm going to miss the frequency with which I've been able to enjoy Yoga From The Heart this summer! I started taking classes when they were offered outside last fall (due to the pandemic). I was so happy when the in-studio classes opened up earlier this year. The studio is clean and accessible and even with the popularity of West Hartford Center, I've never had an issue parking. As the owner, Diane's warm personality sets the vibe for the studio and makes it an inviting space. She has been both encouraging and responsive when I've reached out with questions. The instructors are experienced and knowledgeable. Each adds their own personal touch, but they are consistent with offering interesting classes, clear cueing, and meeting students where they are. (As someone who requires some modifications, I've really appreciated how encouraging they've all been!) There are a variety of different levels -- I can stretch my comfort zone in an all-levels class, work on breath and skills with the slower but intentional pace of a gentle class, and have come to look forward to the super long rest of yoga Nidra. I agree that it is definitely worth checking out Yoga From The Heart.
