About Santosha Yoga
Santosha Yoga is a welcoming studio offering a variety of yoga classes for all levels. With a focus on inclusivity, Santosha emphasizes that yoga is for every body, regardless of flexibility or experience. The studio is open seven days a week, with classes available anytime. No pre-registration is required for regular classes, making it easy to drop in. Santosha provides props for students to use, but it's recommended to bring your own mat, water bottle, and towel, especially for vinyasa and hot yoga classes. The studio offers a range of classes, from basic beginner and gentle yoga to more challenging vinyasa flow and hot yoga classes, which are heated to 95 degrees. Hot yoga is designed to improve flexibility and open up muscles and tendons. Santosha also offers restorative and yin yoga classes, as well as chair yoga for those with limited mobility or injuries. The instructors are described as patient, encouraging, and knowledgeable. In addition to classes, Santosha Yoga provides yoga teacher training, allowing students to deepen their understanding of yoga and potentially become certified instructors. Beyond yoga, Santosha Yoga also offers massages.

Great place for your yoga practice. They offer a ton of mixed level classes. If you're a beginner, I would suggest basic beginners, gentle yoga, and either restorative or yin. If you're looking for a more of a challenge, or have some yoga knowledge of the asanas (what the poses are called in Sanskrit) then I would suggest either their vinyasa flow or hot yoga. Be warned hot yoga is called that for a reason, the room is heated to 95*. The heat of the room allows your muscles and tendons to open up, which allows for greater flexibility and movements. Being a advanced practitioner myself, with nearly a decade of practice. I tend to the more advance classes, and I've taken both the vinyasa and hot classes here at Santosha. I liked both classes but being a teacher myself, I find that my "attachments" get in the way...... If you've ever taken a class, it's likely you know what I'm taking about. What I think is great about this yoga studio is that they truly offer something for everybody- and I mean every BODY. People have this misconception and the stereotype yoga is only for the skinny, female, flexible types. But it's not true. Yoga is truly for every body type. You don't have to be flexible, be able to touch your toes or ever learn an arm balance or inversion (if you want to though, that's welcome!). Yoga is about being present. Letting go of the past and not worrying or obsessing over the future. Santosha is a very welcoming yoga studio. The teachers are patient, encouraging and knowledgeable in their specific classes. Like I said this yoga studio truly offers classes for every level of practitioners. From first timers, beginners to advance practitioners or even people with limited mobility or injuries (chair yoga offered!). There is a class for you. If you're looking to expand your yoga practice, they offer yoga teacher training here. Whether you just want to learn more about yoga- the history/lineage/8 limbs etc., take your practice deeper or if you're looking to become a teacher yourself. Then you could take YTT and get your 300/500 hours in. Drop in classes are $16, which is great. A lot of other studios these days are charging $20-$25 for 1 class. If you want to save even more money buy a pack of classes, or get an unlimited month or multiple month package. Be sure to bring everything your personal items- mat, water bottles and towels (for vinyasa and hot yoga), but know that they do provide props, should you need them. In a world where yoga studios are becoming a dime a dozen this one is definitely worth checking out. Namaste!
Love Santosha! This place is like my second home. I love all the teachers and the owners are amazing. They hold donation classes and give back to our community all the time. I am so grateful to have found this place.
