I've been a student here for a long time and love it! All of the teachers are not only dynamic and inspiring, but are also incredibley nice people. I take classes weekly online and am constantly surprised by how much I learn (especially from the owners) - even as a teacher of yoga. It's changed my life for the better again and again. I couldn't imagine not having access to these special classes and this online community!

I came all the way from Germany to do my Teacher training here and would do it again in a heartbeat. This was my best decision. I believe it's the best place to learn yoga in a true sense and grow personally. For me it was life changing. Nothing but gratitude for this place and my teachers!

I love this studio! Their aim is teach true yoga, something very rare. It's warm, friendly, genuine and truly makes you feel happy. :) Since 1992, Alive & Shine Center has been the Eastside's premier, Indian family-owned authentic yoga, meditation and lifestyle oasis, with professionallyeducated, high-quality yogateachers. They are the home of the College of Purna Yoga, an elite school offering 200, 500 and 2,000hr certifications.

They provide classes, workshops and elite teacher trainings inPurna Yoga, HeartfullMeditation & Lifestyle (created by co-owner, Savitri) and holistic living. Their mission is to teach safe and transformative classes so that students feel alive, and shine!

My wife and I created this Center to provide authentic yoga with integrity. We are from India and respect the ancient traditions from which yoga came, yet modify the techniques to make them more efficient in our current society. We have had students from more than 20 countries come specifically to study at our Center, and to do teacher training here. We are blessed to have such devotion and appreciation for true yoga. Celebrating 33 years on the Eastside and 26 years at the same location.

It is affordable and friendly yoga studio which provides yoga class all day. It has plenty space for parking and near bus stops as well. I just purchased their new student package which cost only $ 50 for 14 days unlimited classes. I have been tried several yoga classes already and so far I like yoga | and Spa yoga most.

I have taken lots of yoga at a lot of places in Seattle and the Eastside. I find that I really appreciate what the teachers at Alive and Shine Center are doing. They teach "regular" yoga - but it's really nothing but exceptional. By regular, I mean, they aren't doing any weird jumping, leaping, undulating - it's just straight, clear and CLEAN yoga.

They say on their website that it is for real people (true - I see all shapes and sizes, not just skinny yoga bodies in class) for real life (true - they teach me how to feel good in my daily life, not just trying to sweat it out and pump hard in yoga class) and that it is real yoga. Too much in the west is getting mixed with aerobics, heat, dance, acro, etc. that you lose the original integrity of these profound exercises. But not here - it's as good as it gets.

Walking into the Alive and Shine Center is like taking a breath of fresh air. There are flowers everywhere, smiling students and staff, colorful, useful items for sale and the best teachers around. I say the best because the teachers have been trained by Aadil Palkhivala who is one of the world's best teachers of alignment based yoga. The are classes for every type of student, for all ages, for all levels and for nearly all physical conditions. There is even a college for yoga teachers here. There are meditation classes every day of the week at various times. Check it out.you'll love it!

I love Alive and Shine Center! I have grown so much there from what I have learned attending the yoga from Aadil and meditation classes taught by Savitri. Because of the integration of the mediation techniques and the recommended lifestyle changes I handle my life with more wisdom, more grace and more love. At Alive and Shine Center I have truly learned how to experience my life in a way that is joyful, sustainable and meaningful.

This place has changed my life! It gave me real life daily tools to make the changes I wanted to make in my life. This studio is the only studio where I felt I could actually use the tools I learned on my mat off my mat. It's a very short time you are on your mat and the rest of the time I felt I just got by. But now with mediation techniques, yoga poses, lifestyle and nutrition tools I can make my life feel as good as I do on my mat! It's a must no matter where you live, come to this studio! They have the best teachers!
