YogaWorks Westchester

Love this Yogaworks location! the staff is friendly, the teacher are awesome and great atmosphere to practice yoga! I had a regional membership but I chose to just do a single studio membership because the people at this location are 1000x better than any of the locations in Manhattan. The Manhattan Yogaworks employees are rude, inexperienced and not helpful. Thank you YogaWorks Westchester for being amazing and cater to your clients! Your customer service extended beyond the norm and it is greatly appreciated!

Love Yogaworks, everything from location to expertise of the teachers and in between. I’ve been practicing for years, it’s difficult in many ways, but Yogaworks Irvington is always helpful, motivating, supportive, positive, and warm. They’ve helped me transition from full time teacher to a retired/​part time one. Everything changes in the process and yogaworks is there for the physical, mental, and spiritual ones.

This is probably one of the nicest suburban/​local yoga studios I have practiced in (and I’ve done yoga everywhere — east coast, west coast, India, etc). The staff is generally friendly, and the facilities are clean and comfortable. There are many classes each day and several different instructors, so you can be sure to find a class that works for you. That being said, there can be some overuse of props, which disrupts the flow of class, and compared to other studios, the pricing isn’t very transparent.

I love the value of this place. I’d say it’s one of the cheaper yoga places in the area. I also love how the yoga class cards expire in 6 months instead of 1 – 3 months like typical Yoga spots.
The staff and teachers are very friendly and helpful. They teach you to just relax and enjoy the sessions. The location is quite small though. There is only 1 classroom, so they only conduct one session at a time. I also wish they offered 8pm classes on Monday/​Wednesday instead of just Tuesday/​Thursday, since i have classes in the city at night on Tues/​Thurs. If they offered 8pm sessions on Tuesday/​Wednesday then that’d be perfect.
The one caveat about relaxing here is that it is closely located to the Irvington Train Station. Yeah, so you hear trains a lot as you are practicing yoga. That can be a nuisance.
I wish i had more time to go here, but iwth school and work, it’s just so hard to find a time to go.

The good: pleasant classroom, good range and availability of different classes, generally competent and friendly teachers.
The bad: clientele skews old and snobby, class size can be uneven (huge to no one else shows up) and there’s one receptionist who is especially unpleasant and never says hi and gives me dirty looks. I think it’s just me, though. ?
Bottom line: As the only game in town, yogaworks can afford to be overpriced and a little bit annoying. You’ll still get a decentish yoga buzz.

My favorite place to parade around in spandex :)
I’ve practiced yoga all over the east coast for the last few years, and this studio is the best of the best.
YogaWorks is a chain. What this means for you is a wide range of class offerings, substitutes when teachers are away, and promotions on classes or memberships. The studio has changing areas and a small shop for clothing, equipment, etc. You’ll notice right away that there are no mirrors in the space. This was new to me and at first I resented not being able to see what I was doing, but I’ve learned to love this about the studio. Instead of focusing on what a pose looks like, your body learns how a pose should FEEL.

Level 1 classes are a slower pace and focus on form. Ellen and Carmela’s classes are great for anyone new to yoga, those who aren’t quite as bendy as they’d like, or want to get back to basics.
Level 2 has a faster pace and will push you. These classes tend to be a bit bigger, so there is less opportunity for personal attention from the teacher but a great core group of students that serve as examples of what to do. You’ll need some yoga knowledge to keep up here.
Freddie is my favorite. He genuinely cares about each of his students and his passion for yoga is contagious. His classes are inventive and challenging for your mind, body, and soul.
Ani’s Ashtanga class is a no nonsense yoga boot camp that builds strength and increases flexibility fast. You will sweat. You will tie yourself in knots. You will feel great when it’s done.
Level 3 is hardcore. Be prepared to spend some serious time upside down. Victoria will get your body to do things you never thought possible.
