Kalā Yoga

Love Kala Bushwick! The heated classes are so addictive I can’t get enough. The space and utilities are great. All instructors are good, with some of them being EXCEPTIONAL; each of them has their unique styles and offers such variety and diversity that always make the experiences fun & well-rounded. This being said, I’ve occasionally run into fellow attendees who came to classes very sick (sneezing & coughing into the space throughout); easy way to get others sick. Perhaps some measures can be taken to raise awareness among the community that, when you’re sick, kindly practice at home instead.

Went here with a few friends for hot yoga with Kate last weekend and LOVED IT! I’ve done yoga all over Brooklyn and am so grateful because I finally found the perfect studio for me! Their practice is exactly what every New Yorker needs... we walked into a calming, beautiful well appointed space and all walked out feeling grounded, balanced and ready to embrace this beautiful city. Kate lead a challenging, yet completely forgiving class, accepting practitioners at all levels, yet never compromising the practice. The space is just stunning from the thoughtfully curated items in the shop to the incredible artwork! What I loved most was the feeling of acceptance and community. This is a space I will continue to bring friends, and make new friends for many years to come.

I used the first week newbie discount and experienced Kala yoga. A comrade from the area took me here and I got to try the vinyasa, heated Pilates and toning classes. All of them were really good and the instructors were experienced. That said, I’m not sure if I’d travel to this studio and pay the price. It’s good for someone who lives in bushwick and can pay the relatively high price.

One of my all time favorite studios. Great classes for both advanced and new yogis. Shout outs to Eric, Nat, Pia, Jenny and Jennie for their great classes and to Kate for running a spectacular studio. The actual practice room itself is well lit and large enough to accommodate a large class and small enough to still feel intimate with a smaller group of students. There is a shower too in case you need to go out after.

Coming to Kala has really started to change my life. I had tried non-heated yoga a couple of times previously, but never latched on - I couldn’t quiet my mind and was often turned off by a pretentious vibe at other studios. Decided to try heated vinyasa here and wow - the instructors are amazing, the classes feel welcoming, and everyone seems to understand and reinforce that yoga is a personal journey. Not to mention, the monthly membership is relatively affordable compared to most NYC gyms/studios. I am so glad I walked in the door.
