From the reviews

Danielle, the owner of Bend, has a very affordable, clean, and kind studio. She is a great resource with just about everything (yoga supplies — blocks and mats, picking the right amount of yoga classes for your wallet and life, and more). Danielle and her instructors (Josh) have improved my mental and physical health.

★★★★★ — Mario, Jan 2021

I am a newbie to yoga, I did a ton of looking around before selecting a place to practice in. From the moment I spoke to Danielle and Michelle I knew I found my place. I call BEND my happy place, I enjoy going to class and seeing everyone!

★★★★★ — Sarah, Sep 2015

I love BEND studio. I started practicing yoga a little over a year ago, and soon became a member at BEND. Each of the teachers is very mindful of what their class needs as a whole and as individuals and they create a very warm and inviting environment for both new students and those who have been practicing for a long…

★★★★★ — Abigail, Sep 2015

Your first hot yoga class at Bend Yoga and Wellness

Nervous about your first hot class? Almost everyone is, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: the room is heated, so it feels intense for the first few minutes — rest in child's pose any time you need to, no one will bat an eye. Hydrate: drink water through the day before class, not just as you arrive, and bring a bottle. What to bring: a mat and towel, water, and a change of clothes; wear something light you don't mind sweating through, and skip a heavy meal in the couple of hours beforehand. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and set up. It gets easier fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Heat and intense exercise aren't right for everyone — if you're pregnant or have heart, blood-pressure, or other health concerns, check with a doctor before your first hot class.
