No doubt, Sonic Yoga is the best in the city. The teachers are highly qualified, very energized and helpful. You get great assists when necessary, and laughs in between. They manage to mix the soul and the heart into yoga while really strengthening your physical practice. The atmosphere is very refreshing, with no attitude and people just there to do yoga...and do it well, with a smile on their face. I've been doing yoga for a lot of years, and have taken classes all over the country, and in other countries. This place has more soul than most...and more quality. I want a yoga studio where the owner cares about people, not just raking in the bucks.... They are well known for their yoga teacher training here, too, so I think they've really gotten the teaching down pretty well! AND, there's no need to be intimidated in a place like this. They're just a great group of people who dig doing yoga together. The owner, Jonathan, is probably the best yoga teacher I've ever taken class with, and he is so real - teaches in his jeans. A former lawyer, he is a smart dude who knows what he's doing, and I believe, opened his studio many years ago to get the message to the masses, to make it more accessible to everyone. In the process, he created this amazing place of wonderful people, wonderful yoga without the 'tude....You can't please everyone, but everyone I've sent here has loved it. And while yoga is not about the space, here it's pretty cool. It's really about the yoga. It's nice, though, when you have both, as they do here..
Pros: teachers, attitude, quality of classes
Cons: would prefer a bigger schedule
