Archway Studio/Theatre

Friday night went I went to see the Play «Holiday Hijinks» at the Archway Studio/​Theatre
in NOHO. Upon entering I was greeted and welcomed by friendly staff. The Playhouse was easy to access and plenty of free parking adjacent.
I thought the Current Play was Festive, Naughty, and Fun !
The actors were enthusiastic and worked well together. See it and Enjoy !

Dracula is a very good show and the actor who played Mr Renfield is very good. I did a class with the director. Close to some very good restaurants like Portos. It is owned by Steven and his wife Annie.

DRACULA! Just saw it-​excellent! Superb strong acting (scary!!) I’ll see it again in a couple weeks! Small intimate theater.

I’m really happy to have found this place. I took my free week of yoga classes and knew after the 1^st one I would continue to come back. I just had my 3^rd session with Annie, each one has been unique and tailored to the people in the room. Very insightful instruction and just the right blend of stretching, strength, and breathing. Very meditative. But I’m sweating at the same time. I’m really excited about the next 3 months of unlimited classes I bought. Prices are amazing. The setting is very relaxing and quiet. I love that it’s attached to a theater being an artist myself.

Annie, Helen, and Aubrey (I think that was her name) are all really, really super fab teachers. The yoga studio behind the stage has really, really great energy. Annie’s style feels a lot like the yoga I practiced in San Diego. It feels real with no gimmicks or cheesy twists on yoga. it’s the real deal. And it’ll actually kick your butt. I can’t wait to get back to why I loved yoga in the first place. I also love that this space is also used for live theatre!

The Archway is unique. Annie and Steven have truly created something special. Theatre and Yoga are the perfect combination! The new space in No. Ho. is a wonderful expansion to what they have been cultivating over the last several years. Steven is a great artistic director and attracts talented performers. I have seen three shows and have taken many classes from Annie, who is one of my favorite yoga teachers in LA. I feel her teaching is deep, strengthening, and soulful. Every time I visit the Archway I feel a sense of community and magic.

Annie is a wonderful yoga teacher. I used to practice yoga one to two times a week at Archway when it was in the Arts District, and I really loved her classes. When I walked into Archway, I only had the experience of a few prior yoga classes in college and watching DVDs. I credit Annie’s classes for sparking my interest in yoga, and it’s been something I have incorporated into my life since then.
Unfortunately since the studio moved (as did I), I have not been able to regularly visit, but last weekend Annie hosted an all-​day yoga retreat. It was amazing. We started the day with a yoga session, followed by a meditation, delicious vegan lunch, discussion and finally restorative yoga. I am already looking forward to the next retreat!
I highly recommend Annie for two main reasons. First, what I respect most is that Annie takes the time to watch and really instruct her students. Thanks to Annie I feel I have developed better habits in alignment and breathing. I have tried half a dozen classes elsewhere since I moved, and only after going to the retreat did I realize I was not doing some things correctly (some of those other teachers definitely did not correct me). Second, aside from the physical work, Annie also infuses the other elements of yoga such as the spiritual, mental, etc. side — whatever you want to call it. I would always find solace in her classes and would leave feeling better than I walked in.
If I lived closer, I would definitely be there on a weekly basis again!!!

Annie is hands down the best yoga teacher I’ve ever had. I just wish the studio were closer to where I live!

Just saw «Deadwood Dick» here and it was an awesome show. The whole cast is a thrill to watch, the production and set was excellent. One if the best intimate theaters I’ve ever been to. Wish I lived closer. Don’t forget to buy lots of peanuts for this show.
