About Us
Spira is a unique mindfulness-based studio where every teacher is unique, but we share a philosophy of excellence and safety.
We still teach yoga how it was originally meant to be: a combination of breath, movement, and mindfulness.
No mirrors, no heat (Spira is a comfortable 74F ), no music, and no trendy "keeping up with the Joneses attitudes."
​
We simply provide a beautiful space and good flow yoga to strengthen you.
We focus on functional mobility and stability, not fancy postures.
Get in shape while managing Anxiety and Stress.
Take our workshops to learn how Meditation, Nutrition, and Yoga Philosophy can help you live better.
In Latin, Spirare means breathe, and Spiritus means spirit.
Thus, Spira cultivates a powerful, resilient Spirit and calm Breath, one that is loving and kind even during adversity.

Gentle Flow Yoga
Perfect for beginners, or for athletes who are looking for a recovery day. Don't underestimate the power of gentle flow. Take time to slow down, and find strength in steady breath and slower movement. You will still work up a sweat, but gently.
