As a yoga and Pilates teacher, I’m often asked how to find the right studio. With so many studios throughout the city, each offering something unique, it’s important to do your research and figure out what matters most to you. Whether you're new to the practice or a seasoned yogi, finding a studio that aligns with your needs and values can make all the difference in your journey.

Here are a few tips to guide you.

 

1. Define Your Priorities

Are you looking for a particular type of class, such as hot yoga, Pilates, flow or yin? Do you prefer a larger studio with lots of amenities or a smaller, more intimate setting? Consider factors like location, schedule flexibility, class styles, and the overall vibe of the studio. These will help narrow your options.

2. Evaluate the Community

At Midtown Yoga + Pilates, we’ve worked hard to create a family-based studio where everyone—teachers and students alike—feels welcome and part of something special. Our small, private environment allows us to connect with each student on a personal level. Whether you’re coming in for your first class or your 100th, you’ll find a space where you belong.

3. Consider the Quality of Teachers

The quality of instruction is one of the most important factors when choosing a studio. At Midtown, we pride ourselves on having amazing teachers who bring their energy, unique styles, and positive vibes to every class. Our goal is for every student to leave feeling inspired, challenged, and cared for.

4. Look at the Schedule

A good studio should offer a variety of classes and times to fit your lifestyle. At Midtown, we’ve built a jam-packed schedule with classes every single day—365 days a year. Yes, even on holidays! We believe in being here for you, no matter what, because we know how important it is to have consistency in your wellness routine.

5. Find Your Happy Place

Your studio should feel like a second home—a place where you can unwind, grow, and take care of yourself. Midtown Yoga + Pilates is more than just a studio; it’s our happy place, and we’d love for it to become yours too.

Final Thoughts

Finding the right yoga or Pilates studio is a personal journey. Take the time to visit different spaces, try a variety of classes, and meet the teachers. You’ll know you’ve found the right fit when you feel comfortable, supported, and excited to return.

We hope to see you on the mat at Midtown soon. Let us be part of your journey to wellness and self-discovery!
