Svalja Yoga is a safe and beautiful environment where I have felt comfortable to be myself and explore my practice more deeply and fully.The staff and guides continually create a space that is both conscious of where everyone in the class is at (physically, emotionally, etc.), allowing for accommodation and freedom to just “be”, while at the same time creating space for further exploration and challenge if that is desired. This is not an easy thing to do but the Svalja team does it extremely well- and they have an amazing Teacher Training program which equips future instructors to do the same.I recommend Svalja Yoga to anyone who is looking for a safe and comfortable place for an asana practice and also to anyone who is looking for a top notch Yoga Teacher Training program.

Svalja is a wonderful place to make your yoga home! In studio there are a wide variety of classes, workshops, and instructors. It’s a lovely space that makes a great effort to make yoga accessible for all. Svalja is committed to making yoga affordable to all who want to join. Svalja nurtures guides and attendees in a trauma conscious and accessible culture. Svalja’s YTT program offers an opportunity for folks to dig deep in ways you won’t expect. Sign up for a class or workshop and check it out- you won’t be disappointed 😀

Whenever I travel to Duluth, I attend classes at Svälja yoga studio! I also appreciated being able to participate virtually during the height of the pandemic! The instructors are knowledgeable and compassionate. The studio is gorgeous, serene & clean. Lots of mats and props available as well so you don’t have to travel with your yoga mat. Can’t wait to go back and highly recommend!

All of the instructors at Svalja are kind, compassionate and very knowledgeable. The space is beautiful and has a calming quality about it. I especially enjoy their yin series with live music as well as the outdoor classes.

This studio is a home for all who step inside. There are many welcoming spaces to visit, rest and practice. The practice room is ENORMOUS and allows for ample comfort, yet is cozy with plants, prayer flags and pleasing decorations. All classes offered are trauma-informed and accessible, so there is something for everyone! The guides are knowledgable, experienced and kind.

Svalja Yoga has such a special place in my heart. I have never felt so welcomed, seen, and comfortable in a space that offers yoga classes. Svalja and the guides have done a wonderful job at creating a container for healing and self exploration. Truly, Svalja is a magical place with lots of insightful classes and workshops to offer. Cannot recommend enough!
