Studio in Details
Overview and Setting
Skylight Yoga Studio is located in Omaha’s historic Hanscom Park neighborhood at 3018 South 32nd Avenue, across from the former Losole Mio. The space occupies a building with ample parking behind it and street parking out front. A large restroom offers room to change before or after class. Inside, students find a place to leave coats, bags, and shoes, then settle in with the help of a welcoming staff who show where props are stored and what is needed for the day’s practice. The studio features a skylight that fills the room with natural light, adding a peaceful quality noted in visitor feedback. The atmosphere is described as warm and welcoming, with a community feel where students chat quietly before class begins.
Classes and Approach
Kim Schwab leads the studio and has been teaching yoga for nearly two decades. She holds a 500-hour certification through Prajna Yoga in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and earned her Master’s degree in English. Her classes, marked all levels unless otherwise noted, typically incorporate flow (vinyasa) and a detailed breakdown of specific poses, with hatha classes focusing on longer holds. Each session weaves together breath work, meditation, and aromatherapy. Kim infuses yoga philosophy with poetry, story, and a healthy sense of humor, encouraging students to find an appropriate challenge while keeping perspective. She also teaches mindfulness at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. The studio periodically offers multi-week sessions on a given aspect of practice, with a week off between sessions, and commitment is encouraged but not strictly enforced.
