About Our Studio

Crown Yoga will offer hatha, vinyasa, yin, restorative yoga, meditation, barre, and mat Pilates classes, along with series classes, workshops, events, and retreats. Our yoga classes are inspired by the ancient wisdom and traditional teachings of yoga. These yogic principles, based on surrendering the ego and connecting students to their true nature, have guided us in creating an intimate and nurturing yoga studio. We are open to instructors teaching additional styles of classes within the traditional hatha yoga path (e.g., ashtanga, anusvara, Kripalu, etc.); however, we are not a hot yoga studio.
