St. Marks Yoga

I took Ricki's 7PM class this past Wednesday and was blown away. The space is gorgeous and the instructor's energy was magnetic! She guided us through a fairly athletic sequence that focused on core strength, all the while encouraging us to make modifications as needed / get creative + take things at our own pace. It was obvious she truly cares about the experience of each individual as she encouraged us to set an intention and carry that intention throughout the practice using our movements and specific breathing techniques. I left feeling more refreshed / revitalized than I have in a long while - body & spirit! At $10 per 75 minute class, this place is a steal. Will definitely be returning with an eye out for any / all classes taught by Ricki. Talk about yogi finesse!

Passing thru the city for one night and stumbled across this studio. Definitely would return. I took the 90 min class with Nick. Edit: Took two classes with Greg on a return visit. My go to yoga spot when I visit NYC, hands down. Experienced instructors. Amazing space and vibe. For only $10, also. Cheaper than therapy or a self help book! Take time to peruse the entire street. A lot of history.

I’m glad there’s yoga here again. The teacher /instructor i had was a bit funny and gentle in their approach. They provide yoga mats and bricks which is nice. I enjoyed my time here and the price was good. I also appreciate that the instructor never touched to make a correction but offered great suggestions for different levels. I can see myself coming back for more lessons.

I did yoga for the first time here and now I'm going to come every week! Audrey was an amazing teacher and I really enjoyed her restorative class, I left feeling so much more at ease, and by the end I was able to touch my toes! I know it's a small feat but was a big milestone for me!

Favorite yoga studio in the city, Matt is a fantastic instructor. And, you can’t beat the price! Good for beginners who have some experience with yoga, and would recommend coming 15min prior to class start time since it gets quite crowded.

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the yoga classes at St Marks Yoga, and I couldn't be more impressed. The serene atmosphere and skilled instructors create a truly rejuvenating experience. The variety of classes caters to all levels, allowing both beginners and seasoned yogis to find their perfect practice. The instructors are not only knowledgeable but also passionate about what they do, making each class not just a physical workout but a holistic journey for the mind and soul. The attention to alignment and mindfulness truly sets this studio apart. Moreover, the facilities are clean, and the ambiance is calming — a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Whether you're a yoga enthusiast or a first-timer, St Marks yoga is an excellent choice for anyone seeking balance and well-being. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to deepen their yoga practice in a supportive and positive community. Namaste!

<3 St. Marks! So much so that I always try to bring a friend whenever I come to class. Mathew is top tier and honestly such an emotionally available instructor, have had such lovely experiences with his classes. To leave a class and feel so connected to your mind and body is really special in NYC where bodily autonomy can be challenging. However, I went to an instructor I’d never been with before and I have to agree with a previous post made about the music. It happened twice in the class but the first time it was so early in that I didn’t mind, however, the last 5 mins of class we were relaxing and listening to a really nice chime, then all of a sudden upbeat pop started playing after creating the space that we did, odd way to round up the class.

Really really cute spot, amazing work with the space! Even tho our instructor was really well versed in the art of yoga, he was not a warm or nice person at all (really tried to get some niceness out of him and was really hard.) I have ADHD and love using yoga for de-scattering my brain; the music selection at the beginning really complemented this until BAM! mid relaxation wild top 40s bangers hit and my brain is all over the ground and the walls. This place takes pride on being on St Marks, in an area where you can breathe and feel punk culture in the air which I thought was really cool hence I booked some sessions for my partner and I. I have nothing against top 40s, as a matter of fact I work on that side of the music industry, but these lyrics and music are designed to take our attention and I don’t know what about this is good for a meditation session in a city where not only mine but most brains are scattered to a certain degree. Also don’t know what’s punk about that; I wasn’t expecting to hear punk during our session, punk is not just music, it’s a vibe that has nothing to do with this space. Again, love the space! It’s affordable too.

Still love St. Marks Yoga, still love pilates with Fiona, and I started going to yoga basics with Victoria who is also amazing. The $10 class cannot be beat! It does get pretty crowded in here so you should get to your class early, but they always try to accommodate everyone and ensure everyone has all of the necessary materials. My happy place!!

I'm surprised this place has gone under the radar for so long as it is a wonderful little gem for affordable yoga classes ($10/class). I am a beginner in my practice, and the instructor was very positive, supporting and empowering for people of all levels. Although the studio is pretty much a single suite in a historic building, it has a well-kept and very clean restroom for washing up and changing, as well as an area for storing shoes and personal items. The studio is absolutely gorgeous with exposed brick walls, beautiful hanging plants, and plenty of fresh air and natural light emanating through the large windows. The simplicity of the space adds to the serenity and tranquility in practicing yoga here. Note, however, that there is no air conditioner so it can be hot! Overall, I would highly recommend this wonderful studio that makes yoga much more accessible to those on a budget. They are also available through ClassPass and offer an unlimited monthly membership costing $125. The studio also has cost-free yoga mats for patrons who do not have their own.

I was invited to Matt's 11am class and I just can't believe while waiting and being the last girl in the class because someone decided to skip me to take a poop for ever that someone would take my bag!!! The instructor asked for My "email" didn't seem concerned much. All my notes for my upcoming and past exams was in there . Devastated .

What a wonderful gem in NYC! $10 yoga is pretty much unheard of anywhere, let alone in NYC so this is a perfect place for practice, especially if you're visiting from out of town. The studio is so cozy and the instructor I had that evening was fantastic and provided many different options for an all-level class. I also felt it was more traditional, not the fancy million pushups and corework type of class. If I'm ever back in the city, I'd definitely come back.

I love this yoga studio. 1) The decor is amazing 2) All of the instructors are so talented and lead you through amazing sessions 3) The price is unbeatable for nyc standards The only complaint I have is that they should start capping class sign ups because during really busy time slots you're shoulder to shoulder with everyone and maybe have a foot in your face. Overall, I will be coming back frequently, just not right after work.
