Summary: An alignment-focused heated flow, along with full wellness-spa amenities, made for a really fun, restorative Saturday morning. Purple Yoga blends yoga and recovery in a way that feels effortlessly elevated. First Impression: Purple Yoga is tucked away in a cute, lil’ strip mall with a pathway leading to the entrance. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by Hope, who guided us through sign-in, photos, and a full tour of the facility (super friendly first impression). The Space: Spacious front foyer with visibility into the yoga room; a hallway featuring a compression therapy room, private yoga room, full-body red-light therapy room; a cold plunge and sauna area; a water station; and bathrooms. The Class (All-Level Flow, 100 degrees): Alex Roberts opened class with breath awareness and gentle head, neck, and shoulder mobility in silence, creating a calm, grounded tone right away. His cueing was clear, alignment-focused, and very intentional. Once movement began, the music stayed in the background, so the emphasis remained on breath, alignment, and slow/deliberate transitions. The class concluded with deeply soothing floor stretches, including supta baddha konasana combined with a gentle self-massage at the base of the skull, releasing neck tension (beautiful nervous system reset). Savasana was spacious and unhurried, with encouragement to remain resting as long as needed, emphasizing relaxation as a meaningful part of practice. Recovery & Wellness Amenities: After class, my sister and I engaged in several wellness offerings: Sauna session: Private, peaceful, and timed with a sand hourglass (so cute). Compression therapy: You can choose compression gear for your legs, hips, or arms, and there’s enough space for two people to relax and enjoy it together. Red-light therapy: It’s a full-body standing system, just grab the protective eyewear, turn on the fan, and step in so the red light does its thing. From what I read, it’s believed to support cellular energy production, tissue repair, skin vitality, reduced inflammation, muscle and joint comfort, and overall recovery (Bring It!). Practical Notes: Easy online booking for yoga and wellness sessions, free parking directly outside, advanced purified water station (yaaaaaaas!), spacious showers and lockers (making it easy to transition from session to session) & an abundance of complimentary personal-care items. The Vibe: Modern, calm, & quietly luxurious. Purple Yoga feels like a boutique yoga studio meets a recovery spa. Incredibly fun to explore solo or go with a friend and reset together! Curiouser & Curiouser: On a personal note, someone who LOVES a fast-paced flow, breath focus was necessary for me to get into this class. My sister, who loves Bikram (standing poses), loved this slow flow and tapped in quickly.

Emma is a stellar teacher! She has a ton of anatomical knowledge that she shares in a palatable way. Her flow was thoughtful, intentional, and fun while also challenging me. She was great at adjusting her cues to meet the needs of each student in the room and gave hands on assists to help with proper alignment. Her style is approachable, relatable, and not to "woo woo." I loved it!

So glad Mike Ruffino is teaching at Purple. His class included some great moves inspired by Budokon and I loved it. Mike is knowledgeable and inspiring. Highly recommend getting to one of his classes.

Danny is an awesome yoga instructor. His classes and flows are so unique and challenging. His tone of voice and allowance of different flow paces, are always comforting for all levels of students. He is one of the best teachers I have taken classes from in the 10 years that I have ben practicing yoga. Danny is amazing!

Took a class last minute and wow was I impressed with the studio ! The teacher was so fun, knowledgeable, positive, and just genuinely sweet. She really knew her stuff and directed such a great class. One of the best first time experiences I have had at a new studio.
