Jivamukti Yoga Center Jersey City

I enjoy exercising. Admittedly, staying active, treating your body appropriately, seems to be getting tougher every year. I haven't made the New Year's resolution specifically to get into shape or to work out at some rate in a given week, but I did decide to take up yoga at the Jivamukti JC yoga studio in January as a resolution to try something new that also involved stretching - my doctor said it wasn't great that I couldn't touch my toes and said my "hamstrings were probably made of concrete" (scientifically, that probably wasn't accurate). So I started Jivamukti yoga this past January on a 3-month unlimited-class package and recently continued my unlimited subscription to continue though the year. I did a bunch of local homework and found this studio to be a solid fit for me personally as well as my schedule. Between the space and the philosophy it's a legit yoga studio, and that comes off; it isn't a gym that does yoga, and that's the point. If this is an activity that is of potential interest, it's worth the money and effort to do it right, and to give this studio and style particularly, a legitimate effort. Their class schedule is greatly accommodating: classes start as early as 7AM and start as late as 8PM, which is a rare commodity for most exercise-specific studios. On classes/teachers, both are great; I do have a few that I frequent more than others for no other reason than it fits into a schedule I more or less have to keep. Overall I've enjoyed this studio a lot, learning the practice and having a dialogue here and there about some of the contexts and philosophes of the teachings. Also, the co-owner congratulated me when I finally could headstand... and that's really cool. Also, proposed to my now-wife here during a private class and that was cool too.

Great yoga studio with great teachers!

Love this place! Best yoga classes I've ever taken:)

I loved the yoga classes because the insractors showed personal entrest for each student.

Love, love, love Jivamukti Yoga Jersey City. Great classes and teachers. Class all day long not just at hours in the early morning or early evening. I love the Jivamukti method and message, I like yoga studio that teaches one style, not ones that teach a little of this and a little of that. Most of the studios in Jersey City are like going to "Country Buffet", lots to pick from on the buffet but not very good. When I go to a Jivamukti class I know what I am paying for and I know that the teachers have all been trained by the same standard! I still have muu fav teachers at the studio but they are all great.
Jivamukti teaches every thing for level 1 basics to advance Jivamukti Yoga classes. The one hour Spritual Warrior is great on days you don't have for the open hour and a half classes. They also have aerial, (I only did once, not for me, but is popular at the studio).
Also I have been to some amazing musical, and non-asana events at the studio. Bob and Austin are putting together amazing events and workshops. I saw Bhagavan Das here and CC White, both amazing music events! So even if
you no not do asana check out the monthly events.
The studio is so pretty it's an oasis in an urban deserted. So full of peace, love, and spirituality.
