Yoga Squared (Yoga)2 - Rittenhouse area

Where:1923 Chestnut Street, 3rd Floor (above the bike shop)
What kind of yoga: Ashtanga yoga

What to expect: Ashtanga yoga, or in this case myesore, takes you through a series of movements in a particular order. It's similar to a vinyasa class, but some of the movements are different.

The best part: The owner, Karen, is awesome. I felt like she would really help you get into the class, learn the yoga, and would be open to as many modifications as you need. She's had injuries before, so she's sympathetic and open to lots of individual attention and questions.

The worst part: I had to be there at 6am for a promotional event... the alarm clock was rude and annoying at 5am. I suggest joining one of their afternoon or evening classes so you aren't caffeine-dependant like me for the rest of the day.
