YCSC offers classes in Iyengar-style hatha yoga from beginner to advanced levels both in-person and over zoom. Our studio features a spacious room and is well equipped with essential props i.e.sandbags, blankets, etc. but please bring your own map

Our approach emphasizes precise alignment and develops strength, flexibility, stamina, and balance. Through regular practice, students gain physical health, mental peace, and emotional stability.

Schedule Updates

November 18 and onward

Abbey and Maya will be teaching their classes at the Green Magic Yoga studio at 738 Chestnut st (behind Goodwill and at end of Squid Row) where Maya has been teaching her Wed. morning classes.

There is parking available at the parking garage on Cedar st. as well as a free lot next to it, and also some limited spaces on Chestnut st (both metered and free 2 hr parking.) We will not be returning to the Vets Hall as we feel it is no longer a supportive space for our needs. It has served us well for nearly three years, but we need to relocate to a more nurturing environment that is spacious, warm, clean, and ours! There are also a couple of important schedule changes we must make to accommodate the current classes offered there. Abbey’s classes will be at 11-12:30am and Maya’s Friday 8:30-10am class will be offered on zoom only.
