Miami Life Center I just signed up for the online Mysore program this week! I very much enjoyed it. This is the first in a long time that I have felt the pleasure of practicing in community. I'm enjoying the practice Mysore style. All the teachers are dedicated to the practice and committed to move no You along the path too. If you are ever able to practice with Tim Feldman then go! He's lovely funny and humble with a wealth of experiential knowledge to share. Best Ashtanga experience I've ever had.

Yoga is a way of life, a search for meaning and a method for finding true health and happiness. The Ashtanga Yoga system is a living lineage, dating back thousands of years in a unbroken line of teachers, sages and gurus that has reached millions of practitioners through the life of Tirumalai Krishnamacharya and Pattabhi Jois.
Spiritual growth can be a messy process! We offer a tried and true formula from ancient India that will help you navigate the currents. Tim's philosophy teacher, Vidwan Nagaraha Rao, tells us that there are four important components to the process. When all these ingredients come together the student is well supported in their efforts.
Just as Sundays used to signify a western God's day of repose, so the ashtanga moon days are set around an ancient Indian tradition. In old time India it was common to take a day of from work every blue moon, or more specific every new and full moon. This tradition has carried over to the yogic system we follow as ashtangis.
MLC has moved into a giant old warehouse with a ton of space and rustic industrial yoga vibes in Miami's fashionable and quirky Wynwood/Overtown. Our new reiteration of Miami Life Center is of a true step up. We intend to be a true education & community center, Omstars filming home base, fun artsy events, a Latin American concept store, gatherings and of course your daily non-stop yoga classes, workshops and intensive courses as you've come to know us over the past 16 years in our previous location on South Beach.

I love Miami yoga Garage, it is like an oasis to disconnect from everything. I live a little bit far, but I do the effort to drive to Miami just to have the opportunity to meet with amazing yogis that I admire. Definitely recommend as a great place that you feel as being with family.

Patricia helped me transform my yoga practice by guiding me to challenge myself. This way, I am more dedicated to a daily routine. She has an expert way of teaching (even virtually) and is truly gifted.

The best place to practice and find your yoga community. I am always amazed at how open and friendly everyone is. I feel very fortunate to be able to practice online. I can't recommend my amazing teachers enough if you want to make your yoga path rich and filled with the best experiences.

Just finished the 2 month online intensive with Miami Life Center (Miami yoga garage)! This course was one of the most comprehensive and beautiful experiences I have had during my Ashtanga journey. We participated in real time chanting with Jayashree, learned extensive yoga anatomy with the esteemed and funny Tim Feldman, breathing practices with Monica, techniques and alignment with Esme, history and philosophy with Joseph, and under the watchful eyes of Patty we delved deeper into our mysore practice. If you want a complete course taught by well versed teachers of the Ashtanga method.this is the course for you!

Miami has more to offer beyond beach and sunshine, and MLC/Miami Yoga Garage is what called me to the city. One of the best ashtanga shalas in the world with dedicated traditional teaching style, a wide selection of class times including daily Mysore, and many smiley faces that supports and encourages each other's growth. It also carries beautiful products from all over the world where you can immerse yourself in your treasure hunt. Shower, drinking water, mat sprays, and props are available.

I was fortunate enough to be able to attend the Ashtanga Practitioners Intensive in July 2021. It was a great experience. Tim, Kino, and their staff are amazing teachers if you have a chance to practice with them. And I loved getting to know the other students in the class. I've taken some online Mysore classes with Patricia too. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but I enjoyed them. She did a good job giving all the students personal attention, which I imagine isn't the easiest thing to do over Zoom.

Miami Life Center Hot Yoga is amazing. I never thought I would enjoy hot yoga, but this place is really great. The space is beautiful, the instructors are helpful, and the practice is rejuvenating. I always leave feeling accomplished and ready to start my day (I go to the early morning classes). I'm looking forward to my next class.

I can't say enough good things about Miami Life Center! I had the pleasure of being a student in their AT for 5 months. I was unsure about taking the training during Covid as most of this was done online. I was so impressed with the teachers' abilities to instruct over zoom. It felt like they were with me in my home every day. The guest teachers they had for the yoga philosophy, accessible yoga, anatomy, and so on were top notch!

I did spend 2 weeks in Miami being taught in person and the adjustment were just what I needed! I would recommend anyone who has the opportunity to take classes or workshops to do so! I continue to practice online Mysore with them and continue to make improvements to my practice. Even though my practice was less advanced than many of my fellow students, I was never made to feel less than. I was challenged to do so much more than I ever thought myself capable of. I am forever grateful for such a special time in my journey!

We absolutely love this studio. Me and my partner started going 4 months ago and it's one of our most grounding exercises that we do throughout the week. All the teachers are world class and extremely gifted at what they do. The dedication they have for the practice, and the students, blows away any other studio around. We highly recommend Patricia's class, her style of teaching is encouraging, focused, passionate and very attentive and her classes bring out the very best in her students.

The Ashtanga practice has brought me so much peace, grounding, openness, flexibility and empowerment. It has transformed our lives and it's allowed me to become more centered and balanced within myself. I love the studio, it's always so clean and welcoming and warm. I feel so invigorated alive, determined and accomplished after my practice, and I highly recommend Ashtanga as a transformative practice. It has increased my energy, compassion, and overall enthusiasm for life. Thank YOU Miami Life Center!

I have a Mysore practice already in place and when my Home studio closed MLC was my Obvious choice. Although it is a distance from my House it is worth the drive! Top notch teachers, welcoming staff, beautiful space. All the necessary amenities for anyone. The front desk staff was very helpful. The teachers initially asked me about injuries and then let me do my practice.

I bought the 30 for 30 package and am hoping to be able to take advantage of attending classes during the busy holiday season! If you want true Ashtanga Yoga based on the 8 Lomb path then go to MLC! #practiceandalliscoming #ashtangayogaforever

I've been practicing at Miami Life Center for the past 2 years and am truly addicted. Not only is the Ashtanga practice at this studio authentic, but it's not as intimidating as I thought it would be. ALL of the teachers and apprentices were so welcoming and supportive when I first began and 2 years later they are so knowledgeable about where I am in my journey and how to support the process beyond asana alignment and adjustments. Getting to know the teachers and see their own journey has been part of the inspiration and the reason I find myself dragging my behind to the studio on days that I have no desire to move.

They all have a dedicated practice and because of this truly understand the internal intelligence of the asanas. It is also so rare to find teachers that understand yoga beyond asana. Because of their curiosity of yoga as a science of the mind, they have been able to support me when my desire to step on my mat is minimal. They have become my community. I am incredibly grateful to them!

One of the leading Ashtanga Yoga Shala in the country. I've learned a great deal about the practice and also about my self here. Beginners, or more advance practitioners. if you've come to Miami and you want to study Yoga. you must come practice here. MLC is the place to be. and it's only a couple of blocks away from the beach!

Miami Life Center was, is, and has been the basis for my Ashtanga Yoga practice. Although I live in Tennessee, I continue to travel to miami several times a year to spend time at MLC. The teachers are warm; their knowledge is unparalleled, and the environment is beautiful. Please visit!

Miami Life Center has been a huge blessing. I've done sports all my life and other type of Yoga (more for stretching and relaxation). I never thought that I would be able to combine strong workout with spirituality. Build my strength, cure old injuries, develop a steady practice, get ancient wisdom and feel a sense of community all in just one place. Miami Life Center introduced me to Ashtanga Yoga and I will always be grateful for it. I was lucky to get myself where most of the pro teachers do their personal practices.and that says a lot about this amazing place.

I feel so welcomed and so at peace every time I enter the facilities its like a home. Amazing teachers always there for you and making one feel comfortable and made me love ashtanga yoga as much as they do so. I recommend it 100 percent if you really want to learn ashtanga

Not military friendly and overpriced. When I bought a package of 10 classes, I asked if I would be okay to come back and use them as I could because I travel a lot through the military. I only got in three classes before I had to leave for two weeks. Then I went to class when I returned, and the guy working the desk told me my package had expired and he couldn't do anything. They didn't tell me the package was only good for a month when I bought it. Not cool.

The Ashtanga teaching is the main event at the studio, but I'm very impressed by the Yin class and Restorative yoga classes. Honestly, I felt so taken care of -- just shy of being pampered-- that it felt like a five-star resort spa with millionaire South Beach clientele. I doubt that the Fountainbleu has a better targeted muscle relax program than MLC's.

I stumbled upon this yoga studio serendipitously and decided to drop in for a class. The receptionist asked if I've ever taken ashtanga before so that I would be aware of how physically demanding this class is going to be. that's how you know their classes kick asses (sorry, I just had to rhyme)! I handed over $20 and put away my flip flops in a little cubbie, then put away my jacket in the bathroom.

A mat is free for the first time. When the time came, we went into the smaller room. They offer different levels; I took a full primary class. It was definitely tough and I loved every minute of it. The instructor did hands-on adjustments which I appreciate greatly. I felt rejuvenated afterwards! I've taken many yoga classes in New York City and I wish we had this studio here! After that, check out Under the Mango Tree nearby for a smoothie!
