A full-body workout that helps with strength, flexibility and mental health is hard to come by. But yoga has been, and continues to be, a fitness outlet that provides all three. So it’s no surprise that in the past few years, studio after studio seems to be popping up in Charleston. Take a peek below at five of our favorite local yoga studios all located downtown, and get ready to book your next class!

Urban Yoga

Located on King Street and open seven days a week, Urban Yoga offers a range of classes for all levels. Check out their Candlelight Yin class every Sunday evening for some relaxing flow or their Inferno Hot Pilates class offered a few times a week to really feel the heat.

“Slow down, rest & heal!” . The message my body has been telling me for some time now, and for the first time in a long time – I listened. ? . Waking up a few months ago, on the last morning of my amazing Portugal retreat with @erinharrington1 , my body had raised her volume on this message – heard in the way of debilitating neck pain, making the rest of my trip and travel home quite difficult and keeping me off my mat for some time now. . Since that time, I’ve been upping my self care game, seeking medical care and trying to allow my body to come back to some version of healthy.? . Factor in a move and some west coast travel to celebrate my 40th bday, I’ve been a bit MIA. I’ve truly missed seeing the tribe and practicing next to all my students and fellow teachers, so I’m happy to say I’ll be back in action – on my mat very soon! ?‍♀️ . Lesson learned: our bodies give us signals, but if we don’t listen when they tell us that they are tired or stressed, then the imbalance increases and a stronger message is required, one that is generally expressed by illness and/or pain. The first step to regaining equilibrium involves slowing down, nourishing your body, getting more rest, and seeking treatment if necessary (acupuncture, massage, chiropractic work, etc.). Once we have nurtured ourselves with these things, we can begin to examine our illness for the message. Only you have the knowledge of your thoughts and choices that will allow you to interpret the messages from your body. All it takes is time and attention. Your body has all the answers to restore itself to the best it can be. ??‍♀️ . See you in child’s pose very soon, friends! ❤️XO Meg . . . #yoga #charleston #charlestonyoga #yogacharleston #chsyoga #urbanyogachs #yogateacher #yogaeverydamnday #urbanyoga #urbanyogi #practiceandalliscoming #selfcare #slowdown #listentoyourbody

Power Yoga is a path to strength, flexibility, focus and endurance. And it’s also a path to connect with what’s really important-You, Your Why, Your Purpose, Your Possibility. Yes you’ll sweat, get flatter abs, and strong biceps. That’s a given. The best part is finding self love, your breath, and that you are More than enough. See you on the mat #whyicpy #comefindyourwhy #strengthsoulsweat #poweryoga

So much connection happens here. In this space you’ll connect to your body, mind, and heart. You’ll connect the dots between your dreams and the next most right steps. You’ll connect with your neighbors. You’ll connect with people you may assume are nothing like you but you’ll share the desire to practice yoga and from there you’ll connect more. You’ll connect to your breath and as you do you’ll connect to ease or energy reserves or deeper strength. Connection happens here. Every da in so many ways. Come practice. #wearemissionyoga #connect #rebelyogis #charlestonyoga #trueyoga #realyoga #wisdom #community #connection
