As a busy working mom of four, I have never done Yoga before, and had come with some friends. The past two years I have been working on focusing on my body and healthier doing what I could from my living room and walking around my neighborhood. Taking a fitness class has never been a priority, but my husband treated me for Easter. I had heard amazing things about hot yoga and was excited to challenge myself, but also nervous because I had no idea what I was doing. Kate was an amazing instructor, she made me feel welcome from the get go, continued to encourage me throughout the session, and gave clear instructions. I never not one time felt judged; and that is one of the biggest reasons I have avoided fitness classes. I enjoyed my experience so much I boasted about it all weekend to anyone who would listen. I cannot wait to come back.

I’ve done yoga in Thailand & this place has a great vibe. The only suggestion for improvement is once the music started it immediately made me feel like I was in NY not Thailand. Yoga music would have made the experience so much better

This yoga school is best for spirituality, healing and yoga practice and I love it. ???? It’s been six months at this studio, and I already feel a huge shift in my life. The energy, guidance, and support at this studio have helped me find more spirituality, healing, peace, and strength on and off the mat. Thank you for creating such a safe, powerful space for growth. ????????

As someone who taught yoga for 10 years and has been a practitioner for much longer than that Jai is the best yoga studio in the capital region hands down . The teachers are top notch and I appreciate that it doesn't feel like the point of the class is to work out but rather to connect spiritually.

I was visiting my friend in the area and did the Sat AM Kundalini class this past weekend. I have done a lot of yoga but had never done this type of practice and had a great experience! The teacher was very friendly and explained everything well, and also encouraged modifications/breaks as needed. I liked the focus on detoxification. The room is beautiful and peaceful and the incense smells amazing. I felt the class was a good value for the price. The front desk staff was also very friendly and kind. I recommend this place and would definitely come here regularly if I lived in the area!

I spent the weekend in a Kundalini immersion retreat with Allison. My heart is full, my throat chakra is buzzing and I have found a studio that truly feels like home. Jai offers you more than yoga, they offer you family.

Jai Yoga has some fabulous class offerings. The 40-Days to Personal Revolution class is transformative— Jess Padula, the instructor, challenges you physically, emotionally, and spiritually, encouraging growth and evolution on every level. Her guidance is inspiring, and the class is a perfect balance of challenge and support. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking to deepen their practice and push themselves in the best way possible. Jess is truly exceptional, and I feel so grateful to learn from her!

The venue was clean and smelled amazing. The staff and clients were incredibly kind and welcoming. Despite the class i signed up for being very full considering it was the first day of the New Year the instructor and staff made sure i had enough room and felt comfortable. The session itself was amazing and any question I had was thoughtfully answered. After class other clients were just so friendly and offering insight into other classes I might enjoy based on our conversations. To feel community with just one visit to the studio is very special and rare. You all should be proud. I can't wait to return!

It was my first class and the lady at the front introduced herself and unprompted gave me a tour and explained how everything worked and where everything was. Then the instructor came up to me and introduced herself and talked me through what the class would look like and asked if I had any questions. I really felt welcomed and the nervousness I had disappeared because of them. Then finally the class itself was really well done and I felt genuinely relaxed and positive at the end. I'd highly recommend Jai for anyone new to yoga!

LOVE this space and its energy! They have knowledgable, well trained and experienced teachers.
