Prema Yoga

The teachers at this small, brownstone-apartment studio are serious about yoga: You will experience some om’ing at the beginning and end of your session, and the instructors will push you to improve your practice. But they are also lighthearted, even funny; everyone there seems to enjoy themselves. The vibe is relaxed, and the instructors are great at helping you find positions that at first seem counterintuitive (and at helping you breathe, something I often forget to do).
