From the reviews
Shakti Yoga has been a transformative experience for me. The diverse community of like-minded individuals, paired with a variety of yoga, meditation, and mindfulness classes offered seven days a week, has truly opened my eyes.
Shakti is an amazing place to develop your yoga practice and spiritual practice, too! My favorite class is the Yin Yoga on Thursday nights, which is one I always recommend to beginners who may not have practiced in a flow class before.
I enjoy the weekly dance class with live drumming. It’s nice to get into “the zone”. They have some slower yoga classes with a focus on breathing, pay-what-you-can classes, and posture clinics. The space is beautiful, with heated wood floors, incredibly tall ceilings, and tons of natural light.
I’ve been a student of Shakti Yoga for about a year and a half now, and can say with certainty that this yoga studio is one of the most sacred gems of Buffalo. I was welcomed into the warm community with open arms as a pretty new student to the practice of yoga.
Your first hot yoga class at Shakti Yoga
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.
