What I love about Yoga 532 is the instructors do an amazing job of providing clear and simple instructions. They suggest modifications to each pose so that the classes always feel challenging for any skill level, while not overwhelming anyone who is still learning (like me). Even when the class is somewhat full, the instructors still offer personalized attention and help you get the most out of your stretches/poses. I have only been to classes by Suzanne, Maia, and Jon so far, but they have all been a pleasure to work with and I can’t wait to experience classes with some of the other instructors as well! Highly recommend!

Excellent yoga instructors. We have gone to several places around town and this is by far the best yoga instruction and experience you will find anywhere!

I have been practicing here for the past month and it has been an incredible expereince. The instructors are focused on form and truly understanding how you are moving through the positions. The place is very clean and practicing good COVID hygiene.

This place deserves zero stars for disgusting treatment of clients. Suzanne, the owner, just hung up on me after I reached out with concerns about my first experience at the studio. She would not let me speak, spoke over me, and hung up on me while I was attempting to speak. With that attitude, she has absolutely no place being a yoga instructor or working anywhere near the practice of yoga. She reflects the opposite of what the practice should be.The concerns I raised were about the instructor, Maia, who was very unfriendly and made me feel uncomfortable with her manner, and about their COVID-safe practices. I bought a one-month pass because the studio appealed to me, as well as the information about complying with COVID-safe practices as part of the “ALX Promise.” Upon attending my first class, as I mentioned, the vibe was anything but friendly and welcoming, instead I was made to feel like I was intruding. There were also no COVID-safe practices being followed. Props were being put back in their normal place, no instruction to wipe them down or place them in separate bins for later disinfection. There was also no hand sanitizer available in the studio and the instructor instructed us to rub our palms and rub them on our faces, after handling props that might not have been disinfected.I expressed these concerns via voice message because I could not find a person or email address to reach out to and also filled out the online form for someone to contact me. The owner, Suzanne, contacted me and upon my answering the phone, she proceeded to justify the unfriendly behavior of the instructor and go on and on about how they were doing everything right. This went on for about five minutes, while I listened quietly. When it was my turn to speak, she would not let me. She challenged me when I said that my experience with other studios in the area had been different as they were practicing a more serious COVID protocol, asking me to tell her what was different. However, when I tried to explain, she would not let me. I asked to please speak and she continued to speak over me and immediately hung up on me.I had requested a refund because I do not feel comfortable being part of this studio, I didn’t feel it before speaking with Suzanne and I was less comfortable after speaking with her due to how she treated me. She wanted to charge me the full price of the class $27, which in itself is outrageous, and I noted that had I known I would be paying $27 for a single class, I never would have considered it. I requested to be charged $20 for the class and refunded the rest. However, since she hung up on me, I didn’t know what she would do. I followed up with a text and after about an hour, Suzanne replied telling me that she had hung up on me because of my negative energy and because she had other clients to attend to. What kind of business, especially a yoga practice, treats any client with such little respect? Honestly, I’m appalled by this woman’s behavior and wish I never had the misfortune of buying the pass so I would never have had to deal with her.If you want to be part of a studio where clients’ concerns don’t matter and you are talked down and shut down, by all means go here. But know there are so many better, friendlier options in the area that deserve your business much more than this place.Unbelievably rude service to clients and totally unpleasant and unnecessary experience dealing with this place. If you look at their Yelp reviews, you notice a trend from the lower ratings and it has to do with the poor attitude of the owner, who doesn’t seem to care about new clients.o

532 Yoga is a wonderful welcoming community of all walks and yoga experience. As soon as you cross the threshold you feel accepted into the space and encouraged to move through your practice exactly how your body leads you. I love this place. I am happy in the space. It is worth your time. Honor yourself by practicing here.

I've been practicing yoga for years and can honestly say this is the most professionally run, relaxing, and welcoming studio I have ever encountered. The teachers are top notch and I learn something in every single class. Thank you 532Yoga for following all the covid 19 safe guidelines and for remaining open as much as possible through the pandemic.

532Yoga is like my second home. Working at home and having no commute has freed me up to take more classes, so I try to be at alignment, ashtanga, yin and flow classes each week. The instructors are excellent; I value the fellowship within the studio and the depth that my yoga practice has gained.

I have been practicing with Suzanne and Maia since November. Their attention to detail and the whole person is amazing. Gave me a whole new outlook on fitness and yoga. I am so thankful they care enough to practice in person, using all the safety measures, and value their guidance. I look forward to working with them for a long time to come

I began practicing yoga at 532 Yoga before Covid-19, took a break when everything shut down and then due to serious health issues, I returned in-person during the summer once they re-opened and have been there pretty much every single day. The studio follows COVID-19 precautions and I always felt safe. The instructors at this studio are professional and very knowledge about the body and what you might need to help you. The owner's alignment class is one of my favorites, but truly all the other classes I attend regularly are all amazing and have been critical to my health and well-being. I've seen all kinds of people come to the practice, in other words I felt like I belonged in my own way, have found my own rythym, and have felt right at home. 532Yoga has seriously been a life-saver for me - I highly recommend it.
