Santosh Yoga

I cannot say enough amazing things about Bryant and yoga at Santosh. I practiced there for 5 years before moving to AZ and continue to wish that I could still be in his presence learning weekly. I have now lived in AZ for 6 years, and I continue to get the emails from Santosh which sparked me to write this review. I have yet to find a studio or instructor out here that is at the same level as Santosh. Yoga at Santosh is always a beautiful experience, a practice with intention, and the right way to take care of your body and health. Bryant and the instructors put the students first and make sure that they are doing things correctly to avoid injuries. Santosh offers workshops and retreats which I cannot urge you enough to experience, too. Simply put, I love this place!!!

Bryant the main teacher has stayed close to the lineage of his teacher fr. Joe and demonstrates kindness in his classes. This is a somewhat iyengar system but mellowed out with a little influence of jungian psychology and Bryans history of Christianity from when he grew up in Bombay India. Very passionate and invigorating work. Los of props to keep students safe which was nice. I have been a student they’re for a while and I love Classes at santosh.

Santosh Yoga is my first experience with yoga classes and I am really happy with their instructors, yoga space, and yoga philosophy.
I heard someone describe them as «this isn’t yoga for beautiful people». What they meant was that this place isn’t about posing and looking good in your outfit. It’s about getting to know your body and becoming tuned in to the breath and the poses. Bryant Mascarhenas who owns the studio is an amazing instructor with heart, compassion, and empathy. All that comes through in the teaching at Santosh Yoga.
They are now at 74^th and State.
