GREAT PRENATAL
by abholl at Citysearch
I am 23 weeks pregnant and just started going to prenatal yoga. I had to stop my regular classes at the gym bc the poses got to difficult for me. I def recommend the Tuesday and Thursday afternoon classes. i felt like a million bucks after Left and the pricing for the center is pretty reasonable.

I must agree that this is a prime location for myself and many others. I love escaping the busy city life to this calm and serene place.
Best Yoga in Union Square area
by rtendolk at Citysearch
I've checked out classes at Om, Jivamukti, The Shala, Laughing Lotus and Integral Yoga. Out of all of these places, I think Yoga Works is the best. Their classes are challenging, but at the same time teachers are really good about explaining technique. When I take classes at other places in the area, I find that they rush through and the technique is terrible - which is not as effective out and may even result in injury. A lot of the teachers are very experienced and learned at Yoga Works in CA (where it's the top school). You'll find out pretty quickly which teachers are best. The downside is that they only have 2 classrooms. They don't offer as many classes as some of the bigger schools. Evening and weekend classes can be crowded and they don't have good changing rooms. The unlimited monthly rate is a great deal, but even if it were more, I don't think I would go anywhere else.
Wonderful Yoga studio with different classes for different levels and at different times.
