About Om Wellness

Founded on the principle that yoga is for everyone, the studio welcomes students of all levels, from complete beginners to experienced practitioners. The space is designed to be comfortable and peaceful, with a front lobby where shoes and socks are left before entering the yoga room—a practice that honors the tradition of entering the practice space with a clean, grounded start.

Yoga Practice and Philosophy
Rooted in the ancient Indian tradition, yoga at Om Wellness is understood as the union of mind, body, and spirit through the practice of postures coordinated with the breath. The studio focuses on building strength, flexibility, and balance, while also calming the mind and reducing stress. Each pose can be modified to fit individual needs, and instructors guide students to listen to their bodies throughout the practice. For those new to yoga or returning after a break, gentle restorative or basic classes are recommended as a starting point. Students are advised not to eat a heavy meal at least two hours before class and to wear comfortable clothing—no blue jeans or dressy work clothes.
