Review from Bridget C.

6/23/2011 6 Check-ins Here
Lotus Soul downtown is outside of my comfort zone. Neighborhood-wise, that is. Near Stadium LRT station, your best bet to get here is to simply hop on the number 5 bus, which will drop you off right across the street. Once you arrive, there's a good schedule to choose from. They have both morning & evening, as well as weekend classes. I regularly attend Hatha with Emily on Mondays and, let me tell you, that girl is more than my yoga teacher, she is my therapist. The instructors at Lotus Soul bring more than interesting and challenging poses, they are very focused on the spiritual side of yoga. When I attend, I feel I get so much more than a good stretch in my muscles -- I get a full 1.5 hours away from my iPhone, which gives me a chance to truly relax and revitalize the soul. The studio itself is big, well-designed, and beautiful, and they have cubbies and changerooms if you're coming to or from work.The prices at Lotus Soul are great, and I would say competitive compared to other studios. Furthermore, student discounts are available, so bring your school ID! They offer yoga camps for kids, even, which just goes to show how cool Lotus Soul is.

Review from Paula K.
1/20/2009
In an effort to make some lifestyle changes, I decided to try yoga. This location of Lotus Soul Gym (there is another on Whyte Avenue) is located near my office, so it was a natural choice to check it out first. There are a variety of drop-in and registered classes from which to choose, many of which are geared towards beginners, or are led with modifications for those of us new to these body movements. Instruction includes techniques for breathing, relaxation, meditation, strength, and flexibility. My instructor was everything I pictured a yoga instructor to be - calm, knowledgeable, patient, and in great shape. He was very encouraging and patient with me. Drop in classes are $17, but passes can be purchased for different lengths of time and numbers of classes, resulting in a discount per class.
