West Hartford Yoga

Wonderful, welcoming, professional studio! Everything about the studio is wonderful with such attention to detail...pristine facility with air purifiers in every studio room, welcoming front desk staff, excellent and diverse instructors, the professional Zoom platform, the commitment to 'giving back' to the community, and accessible pricing. Simply the best! Highly recommend Linda's classes; she makes yoga accessible to all!

WHY has been my yoga home since it opened 20 years ago. Over the years I have ebbed and flowed at times in my own practice, but when I come back to the mat, it is ALWAYS here. The teachers are fantastic, the energy very real and positive, and what they do for the local community super impactful. Recently I completed their 200 hour YTT training to deepen my practice. It was exceptionally well done led by Barbara, Jennifer and Jude. If you have thought about it, I highly recommend it.

So love WHY classes, especially Barbara. She teaches from a depth of experience and practice and prepares the whole class to enter deeply into final postures. Every time I go I feel like the class has been designed for me. I love the sparse but spot on cueing - so my moving meditation is only interrupted to take me deeper. Great hands on assists. ❤

Started attending classes here in 2018 and fell in love immediately. As an intermediate practitioner I felt the teachers offered options to take things easy and to advance. Studios always felt clean and organized and never smelly (hate when it just smells like middle age sweat at some studios). I continued my practice regularly until Covid when I moved out of the state. Came back to visit this week in 2023 as a more advanced student and still loved this place just as much.

If you’re looking for community, you can find it here. If you’re looking to be alone and connected to yourself on your mat, you can find that here too.

And! Free parking and good pricing! My favorite teacher is Jen :)

This place is really nice! I always shied away from Yoga because of the classes I usually took at the gym were more focused on other things instead of the principles of yoga. At this studio, they truly believe in treating the person like a whole being, and encouraging you to listen to YOUR body and not to compete the people in the room around you.

I usually go to the heated classes (Hot or Power), but I have attended Gentle and All-Levels classes as well. If you've never done hot yoga before, I'd recommend Carissa's class as it's a great foundation into heated room yoga. She provides a ton of different variations and options for beginners and more advanced students alike. Every instructor has their own style of teaching. Linda's class is filled with wisdom, breathing, and meditation coupled with movement. Tony infuses humor in the yoga flow which is awesome when you've just had a stressful day at work. If you like more intense classes, Nikki's Power class will have you leaving wet with sweat and feeling accomplished, empowered, and ready to take on the rest of the day.

Overall, I'd highly recommend this yoga studio. It has a wonderful atmosphere and great classes.

All the instructors are unique and have something special to bring to the class. Staff will know you by name. Very relaxing and supportive environment for all bodies and levels. Classes can get very busy though. Overall, great experience.

My experience at WHY yoga is nothing short of amazing. Every time I come in for class I am so happy I did. The instructors are so knowledgeable and the practice in turn feels very restorative and positive. The studio is also beautiful. I highly recommend to any beginners or experienced yogis!

I love this place for many reasons. I used to come here every week during the lunch hour yoga, the power hour. As a seasoned yoga instructor and a long time practitioner i naturally have a bit of discretion. I love the backbone of this place, perhaps its the owners vibe that filters into the entire place but i always feel at home here. Ive never had a bad class here.

I love love love this place. Its very clean, the staff is pleasant. The class sizes are smaller which allows for more one on one. I've been to a few other local places. They are at the top of the list!

Large, open rooms, wonderful instructors, and a good variety of different classes! They have special events and it seems like there is a class going on.
