Best studio in the Upper West Side! Both their yoga and pilates/sculpt classes are amazing, with great instructors all around and a beautiful space. Every detail feels so intentional, Shannon and Andre have really created a very special place in the UWS. My membership is the best investment I've made for my mind and body in my seven years living in New York :) Highly highly recommend!

After years of working out at big-name brand gyms, discovering Aura Yoga Studio has been a revelation. This women-owned gem is exactly the kind of small business we need to support in our communityand the personalized experience is incomparable to the corporate gym environment.The studio offers a diverse range of classesyoga, Pilates, sculpt, and nidraensuring there's something for every mood and need. With two consistently clean, well-maintained spaces, I always feel safe and welcomed. The equipment is in excellent condition and readily available, which speaks to how well-run this place is. What truly sets Aura apart is their roster of diverse, thoughtful instructors who bring genuine care and intention to their teaching. A few of my favorites are Shannon, Meg, Arthur, Alli, Kai and Jasanpreet.Beyond the mat, Aura is building community through book clubs and brand partnerships, expanding what a yoga studio can be. For me, this is more than a workout spotit's where I reconnect with myself amid the beautiful chaos of city living. Supporting Aura means investing in both your wellness and a local business that truly cares.

Aura is the yoga + mat pilates studio weve desperately needed on the UWS! Its a peaceful sanctuary tucked away on 72nd and Im so happy to be a member. The classes are challenging and enjoyable, taught by a wonderful and diverse range of teachers, who are both skilled and genuinely lovely human beings. I especially love the classes Ive attended from Shannon, Meg and Kai! Highly recommend Aura not only for the workouts but the good vibes and community.

Best studio Ive ever been to. The owners are so caring and really go out of their way to make me and everyone else feel special. From members only nights, to fun challenges, to brand collaborations, to sound healings, to special treats when we reach milestones Shannon and Andrey have really made a safe haven for upper west siders to chill out. Oh and every teacher is fab and its absolutely stunning.
