Pacific Yoga is a cozy little nook where city folk can come for a breath of fresh air. A stone's throw from downtown Philadelphia, but born in the tropics of Costa Rica, PY is a place to escape the bustle of the urban jungle. To pass through the front doors is to enter an oasis of tranquil space fit for embarking on barefoot adventures of self-discovery, and yet comfortable enough to find yourself right at home.
It's the yoga studio next door with the easygoing vibe, where practice is kept simple and every class leaves you feeling the pura vida. Pacific, yes, it's an ocean nowhere near Philadelphia, but it is also a peaceful state of being that's much closer than you think. If you're more comfortable in a smaller, personal setting, we understand.

I cant say enough good things about Nicole and Pacific Yoga! Ive been coming here for prenatal yoga and she has been amazing. She always takes into consideration what aches and issues we are having and tailors our session towards it. I like this studio more than others I've been to for prenatal yoga because we do more than just stretching. I would definitely recommend!

Nicole is amazing and her ability to perfectly tailor a class to the needs of the group at a moments notice is incredible. I leave every class thinking, "Wow, that's exactly what I needed today". I've experienced her prenatal, mama + me and all levels classes and appreciated each one. The space is lovely, the participants are friendly and I'd give more stars if I could. She has my vote for best in Philly.

I've been practicing with the studio owner, Nicole, for years, all the way back when she used to teach at Wake Up Yoga . This is hands down one of the best, most underrated studios in the city, is this little Mecca in Fishtown, right off Firth street near greensgrow farms . The studio owner knows her stuff and if you can catch a class with her, all the better. She is one of the best teachers in Philadelphia by far. The teachers here seem to really care about students. Expect to be greeted with a warm smile and an unpretentious vibe, cool blue walls, simple decor, and clean surfaces to

I've been going to Pacific Yoga for about a month now and I love it so much. The studio is like a little sanctuary from the city streets--clean, bright, and quiet with beautiful decor. I've mostly attended the Thursday evening Basics class, but attended a couple All Levels classes when I couldn't make it on Thursday. Nicole is wonderful at modifying the movements in the All Levels class so I never felt as if I couldn't keep up with the more advanced classmates. I also like how Nicole remembers me week to week, and asks how I felt after the last class, or asks if there are any

I've only been here once, for the evening beginning yoga when I first started getting back into it, they offered a ninety minute class and participate in class pass which drew me in. The small studio is warm and welcoming, with an instructor that reminds you that your practice is individualozed and to do what you are able. Great studio and great experience. But class pass users: there is street parking (I think I was a block away) but no parking lot as the app suggests ! Definitely don't let that keep you away !

Costa Rica Yoga Retreat
Costa Rica pura vida I miss you! I can't thank Pacific Yoga enough for organizing and curating one of the most memorable trips of my life. This trip completely exceeded my expectations. The timing was absolutely perfect, It was an escape from the hot humid July city to a place that felt like paradise. The weather was absolutely perfect in the high 70's-80's amazing water temperatures, sunny, and a prefect short bit of refreshing rain that was more than welcome. I would not have enjoyed it as much had it been Jan or Feb as the temperatures would have

This studio is tucked away and a hidden gem. I've been going back several times now for Stacy's prenatal yoga on Sundays. She's amazing. I always feel so much better after going. The class size ranges from 5 to solo, depending on who shows up. And even if it's just you Stacy will continue to have a class. Highly recommended for prenatal yoga!

A friendly and welcoming studio and a cozy space!
Instructor Nicole is terrific and approachable and helps every member of the class to successfully individualize their practice.
The beginners series has been a fun way to build consistent practice. This studio is not strictly into the physical practice and embraces the full on "om-iness" of yoga, which can get a tad new age-y at times.

Nicole McLane is a natural. I have been following her classes since she first was certified as a yoga teacher and it has been a pleasure to see her grow as a professional. She is able to combine spiritual and physical aspects of yoga in a balanced, graceful way. Fishtown definitely needed a yoga studio; Pacific yoga is it!
