I walked into Aura Yoga Pilates Studio Upper West Side feeling unsure, but left feeling refreshed and calm. The space is quiet, spotless, and the staff are genuinely friendly and welcoming, which made my first yoga class feel so comfortable. I especially appreciated the calming atmosphere that helped me focus during the vinyasa yoga session. This studio is definitely one of the best yoga classes near me and I’ll be back regularly.

From the moment I stepped inside, I knew this yoga studio was special. The space is serene and thoughtfully designed—calming colors, natural light, and an atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. Every detail feels intentional, creating the perfect environment to disconnect from daily stress and reconnect with yourself. The instructors here are truly exceptional. Each class blends physical challenge with mindful guidance, striking the perfect balance between strength, flexibility, and inner peace. They don’t just lead poses—they teach with compassion, encouragement, and a deep understanding of yoga philosophy. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced, you feel seen, supported, and inspired. What sets this studio apart is the sense of community. There’s a warmth that extends beyond the mat—students and teachers alike radiate kindness, making every visit feel like coming home. After class, I always leave lighter, calmer, and more grounded, carrying that sense of balance into the rest of my day. If you’re looking for a studio that goes beyond fitness to truly nurture body, mind, and spirit, this is the place. It’s more than yoga—it’s transformation.

I love Aura Yoga Pilates Studio Upper West Side! The studio is always sparkling clean, the decor is soothing and modern, the lighting is perfectly soft, and the quiet atmosphere makes every session feel like a mini retreat. The front desk team and instructors are incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes even a first‑timer feel at home. If happiness had a location on Google Maps, it would be here. I especially enjoy the vinyasa yoga and the pilates classes near me – they’re exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend!

Aura, by far, is the best yoga studio in the Upper West Side! Shannon & all the staff are excellent; not to mention, the studio is gorgeous! Classes are small, interpersonal, and always uplifting. Kai's Sunday Service class is a must; he always brings great vibes, the best corrections, and a smile to everyone's face!

Thank you so much, Sharon, for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you find Aura to be the best in the Upper West Side and that you appreciate our excellent team.

I trek to this studio from LIC for Kai's class. His energy is goofy and loving and so uplifting. As a recovering Evangelical, this truly is Sunday service. He always has a nugget of truth that I needed to hear. Its a challenging flow but so so nutritious. I love the incense and essential oils (lemon balm, eucalyptus) - I would love more of that for this class. I will definitely keep coming for Sunday Service though, its the perfect way to end/start the week.
Reply from Aura Yoga + Pilates Studio 2025.09.29
Thank you so much for your uplifting review, Rebecca! We're delighted to hear how much you enjoy Kai's unique energy and the enriching experience his class provides every Sunday. Your feedback on the incense and essential oils is greatly appreciated, and we'll consider incorporating more into the sessions. We’re looking forward to seeing you next week for another inspiring class!

Have been going here for a few months and I really love the studio. (Any place that gives you lavender towels after each class is doing something right!) Front desk team is always warm and personal. Space is gorgeous. I go mostly for the Pilates. These classes are generally good but Alli B’s class is excellent - well structured & the perfect mix of challenging and restorative, and thoughtful details that make it flow seamless / show she’s an experienced teacher. Some other Pilates classes haven’t felt as intentional or energetic but I imagine this will get better as the instructors get more experience and the studio grows. One small suggestion: the wipes/trash setup could be easier to access after class as its currently a bit awkward and disjointed (it’s helpful when the instructor grabs the canister and sets it in prominent place vs when folks clamber to grab one after class) Overall, love this place and will definitely keep coming back!

Aura Yoga + Pilates is NEXT LEVEL!! Newest real yoga studio on the UWS with true-to-form yoga, Pilates, yoga sculpt, and numerous other unique/creative/intentional offerings to suit all levels and styles. Sunday’s Service Yoga + Meditation class with Kai Watkins was no exception. It’s hard to sum up in words, but it’s so wonderful and rare to encounter teachers like Kai Watkins. He gives true meaning to what yoga is and what yoga can be - offering up all the beautiful, messy, uncomfortable, joyful (+ more) lessons one encounters on the mat and in the world. His positivity and openness is infectious. There’s Community (with a capital C), themes, music, knowing hands-on adjustments, playfulness, attention to form (but also freedom within form), in truth and laughter all tied up with graceful suggestions about what really matters. Thank you!! 🙏❤️ ( P.S. Love that this sweet studio gives its teachers a platform to teach classes unique to their vision - also a rarity these days.)
