Having recently moved to the area, Jaya Yoga is a wonderful escape from the busyness of NYC work-life. We are all so entrenched in our work that we forget to step back. Jaya Yoga is that spiritual Ashram that is a gift to all those residents in Windsor Terrace. It feels like a safe space to escape to in order to find 'center' in our lives. Ever-grateful for its existence in our area. Between the instructors and the ambiance of the actual facility, can't help but feel great joy that it is in our backyard.

Simply the best. Love all the locations. You can find whatever levels you need here. Jaya just makes our neighborhood better. The warmest places to be.

Great place to practice.friendly faces and a welcoming atmosphere. The instructors are very helpful and asssit to make sure you have the best possible class.i highly recommend the heated classes

I love this yoga studio so much! Every single class I've been to here has been one of the best classes I've ever taken in my life. The teachers all have their own styles but there is a commonality with in the practice - each teacher does their homework and creates a unique sequences that never feel rote. This place has great energy and is a lovely environment. It's small but feels perfect and I've never been to an overcrowded class.

When I moved to this neighborhood (Windsor Terrace) from Red Hook, I was sad to leave the yoga community I had been a part of for many years there. Fortunately, Jaya was close by and I stopped in for a class. Every teacher I have worked with there has been inspiring and knowledgeable. I've even brought my kids for the kids classes and Kirtan. I'm grateful to have found a welcoming and loving community here.

This is a special spot. It's not super-'yang', flowing, muscularly demanding yoga. But it is challenging, rigorous, and precise -- I've only been once, traveling, but it feels like a studio where your practice would go and improve with time. The instruction of my class was specific, personal, and thoughtful. It's also clearly a place where 'yoga' as a holistic set of practices is embraced -- if you're _totally_ not into that it might be a turnoff, but I'm only _somewhat_ into it and liked it here, for the same reasons: it's all presented in a low-key way that treats the practice and you with respect, so it takes things seriously, but doesn't take itself too seriously. It's a good spot. You should try it out.
