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.

In my recent move here I searched for a yoga studio that offered a welcoming, peaceful and open space to build back my yoga practice. Upon joining with a trial membership, they asked what kind of environment I was wanting. I wanted a place that made new comers feel welcome, a place where I could find community and a place for me to grow. Not only did Aura give me this, they gave me more than I could have imagined. Each class or experience I have had has been exactly what I needed in that moment. Im so grateful for Aura and everyone in the studio for helping me find my place.
