The wonderful and dedicated teachers over at Harlem Yoga Studio gave us the heads up recently that they have a new hOMe on West 125th Street. If you recall, they use to be located at 119th and Lenox Ave in a nice size corner brownstone. Fast forward to today, Harlem Yoga Studio classes are now on the third floor of 20110511-111445.jpg
44 West 125 Street between Lenox and Fifth Ave. This new space offers plenty of room for yogis to practice their sun salutations, warrior pose or downward dog, etc. right in the heart of Harlem.

In addition to the move, Harlem Yoga Studio is updating their class schedule to include new adult classes, and many more Vinyasa, YogaTone, Prenatal, Full Figured Yoga, Donation Only Community Classes, Pilates, Kids and Family classes, and more! Check out their website for exact class details.

And in honor of the new location, Harlem Yoga Studio is offering FREE Yoga outside starting this coming Saturday, May 14. Every Saturday from May 14 through September at 11 AM Harlem Yoga Studio will offer a FREE one hour yoga class at the Target East Harlem Community Garden located at 415-417 East 117th Street, between First and Pleasant Aves.

That’s not all, starting at the end of this month, Harlem Yoga Studio will be offering FREE yoga in Central Park at Harlem Meer. This sounds cool and awesome way to practice yoga!

Overall, there are plenty of options in Harlem for us Harlemites to either continue or start yoga practice!

If you are looking to practice that downward facing dog or warrior pose right here in Harlem, well look no further. Harlem Yoga Studio has arrived. It’s just three weeks old. They have a big open space and are already offering various levels of yoga classes at different times throughout the week. If you’re interested in a yoga practice close to home, I recommend visiting this studio. It’s located on the Northwest corner of 119th Street and Lenox Avenue and the first class is free until November 1, 2009.

I went to the Yoga I/II class with Erica over the weekend and enjoyed it very much. The teacher was well-versed in yoga and extremely polite. The studio is spacious and the location is ideal. It is centrally located where you don’t have to trek far down to the West or East side of upper Manhattan to get to a yoga class. Plus it is right by the 2/3 train to 116th Street! So if you are looking for a yoga studio in Central Harlem, look no more! Namaste!
