Breathe ... deep ... slow ... long .... slowly exhale.  

  Feel the release of stress, exhaustion, pain  ...
   Ahhh ... Life is good -- and yoga only makes it better.

What is Yoga Lola About?

You.  All of you -- from the inside out and outside in.  We are here to assist you as you reach for your highest potential physically and emotionally.  Our teachings are designed to help you find and/or maintain, beauty, strength and grace under pressure.  Yoga as we do it at Yoga Lola Studios is both a science and an art form, all rolled into one.  It is the real deal.

We are a yoga studio, a healing center, and a learning center.    We offer Kundalini-based yoga to help you build a strong core, Hatha yoga to lenghten and tone, and gentle yoga to get you started on your way.  Additonally, we teach other "special" yoga classes geared towards specific outcomes.   We offer special workshops that promote personal growth, including native american teachings, music, dance, nutrition, healing, and many, many, others.  We share the teachings of many traditions from many teachers, welcoming the wisdom of all.

We leverage the effectiveness of sonic therapeutics in some of our classes as an aid for treating the chronic illness of our time:  weight gain, depression, anxiety, rage, and grief, to name a few.  Living in the right muscial vibration helps to keep you healthy.  Therefore, we include the use of music and mantra, through drums, gongs, flutes, mantra recitation, and music CDs etc. in some of our yoga sessions.  (For full details on the ancient practice of sonic therapeutics and its use and efficacy now, go to our About Sonic Therapeutics page.)

Our regular activities include:

• a.m. and p.m. group yoga classes for all levels.  Perfect for beginners, intermediate and advanced yoga students.
• gentle yoga four times a week (all exercises can be performed from a chair or via standard methods).  Perfect for students looking for a gentle practice, beginners, yoga therapy practice, or seniors
• individual private yoga lessons
• couples private yoga lessons
• customized long-term yoga classes for individuals or groups targeted at achieving particular goals
• retreats
• private energy wellness sessions: more relaxing than a massage!
• chakra balancing

• astrology charts for natal, compatibililty and transits
• cinema nights
• Saturday and days-long special workshops
• workshop space for lease to like-minded groups

Non-member class passes, as well as 1-3-6 and 12-month memberships are available (for pricing, go to the Services page ...).  See our full schedule of events  at the Calendar ... page.
