Deni Roman's Maui Yoga Path is the best Iyengar Yoga school I know. Deni is my teacher and I am deeply grateful for her tutelage. There is truly much to be gained by improving strength, balance, and flexibility in mind, body, and spirit in a thoughtful, nurturing environment steps from the sands of Keawakapu Beach overlooking our beautiful Pacific.

Just returned from a week of practice with Deni at Maui Yoga Path including a 3 day workshop. What at incredible experience. The studio is spacious and welcoming with some of the best views you can imagine, with the location being directly on the ocean. Deni's instruction and teaching is second to none. A very rare combination of alignment, instruction and spirituality. She is one of the best, if not the best Iyengar yoga instructor in the country. Very grateful to have met Deni and Maui Yoga Path. Can't wait to return.

Mahalo for sharing you practice with me Kristin and Deni. Kristins's three unique Stretch-Relax classes took me back to foundational learning. Knowledge to integrate into my practices back home. The studio doors open right onto the beach and the sounds of the sea. "The better your alignment, the more aligned you will be." Wisdom from Deni

Underneath a restaurant and there were flies EVERYWHERE. I could not handle it. The sunrise yoga wasn't really at sunrise (7am) and the view was amazing --but the smell of food, the people constantly walking by, the flies. The Flies! Not worth the $25 drop in cost. I'm sad about this one. I'm sure the studio inside is great.

Wonderful & educational practice this morning at Maui Yoga Path. The class style is Iyengar, which I had read ahead of time was the type they teach for 7 am beach yoga. The studio is easy to find and is underneath/behind the 5 Palms Restaurant with doors facing the water. I had checked ahead of time and was advised that drop ins are fine and to arrive about 10 minutes ahead of time.
Lovely open studio (I could see the indoor classes being enjoyable.) For today, I was here to enjoy morning yoga outdoors. There were about 4 other students and we set up on the grass with mats, blocks and straps

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Deni Roman and the Maui Yoga Path. I found this jewel many years ago while visiting the island. I have since made it a regular routine to visit Maui serval times a year mostly for the amazing Iyengar yoga practice that Deni offers. She is a seasoned professional teacher with years of training straight from the source in India. It's a deep life changing practice that heals the body mind and soul. I am also a yoga teacher, and bring the knowledge I receive from Deni back to my students. Maui is so lucky to have a teacher with her experience,

During our 5 day stay in wailea, we visited this wonderful yoga studio 4 times. 3/4 were for sunrise beach yoga and the last was restorative evening yoga.
Deni, the owner and 30 plus year veteran of iyengar yoga is a gifted teacher. We didn't know what to expect so let's talk about iyengar 101. It's a form oriented type of yoga where props are used and the emphasis is on form and alignment. Poses can be held for quite a long time and it very different from a faster form of flow. Beach classes were iyengar like but because of challenges of being outside right by the beach, deni

A yoga class on the beautiful beaches in Maui sounded fantastic. Maui Yoga Path is located around back and underneath a massive resort property. The studio is just the one large room with a pillar in the middle and a wall of yoga accessories. The beach yoga class is daily at 7 am. I arrived, paid the $20 drop in class fee (which seems a bit pricey, but I figure we're paying a premium for the experience).
Space to set up and practice outside is on fake grass, and a little uneven, with unparalleled ocean views. The instructor got our small group going, and well, the class wasn't all that

Deni Roman, is an excellent teacher; she gave very thorough and detailed instructions pertaining to each pose keeping with the Iyengar Yogic Tradition of careful balanced alignment - I was a first time student and did the class every morning for 2 weeks. I am slightly ruined as in my home town I can only find hot flow yoga, but because of Deni I am practicing every day! Highly recommend!!!!

Terrible experience!!! This was a anatomy class with someone who has practiced for 35 years and has forgotten what yoga/love/kindness is. I am awaiting shoulder surgery and before class I spoke with the instructor and explain to her that I have been doing yoga for 15 years /certified teacher and that I will be modifying during her class due to injury. She completely ignored what I said and was offended when I modified my practice and said I was stubborn in front of the entire class. This was the longest class of my life lol my girlfriend who is also a teacher said the only reason she has a studio

Deni's year's of experience shows as she verbally leads you on an internal journey. While teaching you to release she builds balance, core strength and the ability to relax your mind. Suffering a debilitating injury and surgery studying under her has increased my flexibility and built strength in my knee my doctor was amazed to see. Practice heals, whatever the injury. Thank you Deni for your commitment to Yoga!

Do you like yoga? Do you enjoy hearing the ocean, seeing the ocean? Perhaps seeing the occasional sea turtle and whale While doing your downward dog? If you answered no to any of these questions you are not human and we can never be friends.
Location is key at this yoga studio besides the fact that the instructors especially deni is awesome! The lady instructors are definitely the best and take their time to correct your posture in the poses. My favorite part of this studio has to be, the ability to do yoga while seeing the most beautiful views ever. I always take the sunrise classes when I'm

We were visiting and had heard a lot about Hawaii Yoga. Saw this link on Google and this place's name was there. http://www.prideofmaui.com/blog/maui/best-places-yoga-maui.html
On the look of it: Ocean facing, sunrise, tropical climate. What could have gone wrong. Called them one day before and found out $20/ class for a drop in which to me seemed pricey but still thought if it was good quality, let's give it a shot.
Drove one hour in the morning especially to do this Yoga but was quite disappointed with the level of Yoga taught (even if you could call it Yoga). It seemed they are

Kihei residents are lucky to have a seasoned certified Iyengar teacher right on the beach.
Deni Roman is the real deal. She has studied with the Iyengar family in Pune, India at the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute. In other words, the Harvard of yoga schools.
Maui Yoga Path is well equipped with props, so all you have to bring is yourself and your Tapas.
Her class today was inspiring. She worked on poses that addressed tight hips, feet and neck issues.
While doing so, she beautifully interweaved concepts from the Patanjali Yoga Sutra in easy-to-understand terminology.

Deni Roman, from the Maui Yoga Path is the best Iyengar yoga teacher I have ever encountered. She is thoughtful and caring, with great knowledge. Deni has the uncanny ability to step into a class of all skill levels and reach each individual in the class and improve their practice. She is great with beginners, people with injuries, as well as advanced students. I stumbled across her studio the first time I came to Maui, and now her classes are the main reason I return to Maui. If you have the chance to take one of her workshops, it will really enhance your practice.

The Maui Yoga Path is located at one of the most wonderful beaches on Maui. The studio provides all the props you need for practicing Iyengar Yoga and offers a lot of space. Everything is very well organized and in very good condition. But even more important for me is that the Maui Yoga Path truly transformed my life into an even happier and healthier person. When I entered the studio, I was welcomed by Deni Roman with a very warm Aloha. She wanted to know about my health conditions and I told her about my shoulder, neck and lower back problems and that I had to give up some activities that I

I have been going to the Maui yoga path for a few years now. It is absolutely the most inspiring and peaceful part of my day. I absolutely adore the teachers and the depth of the practice and awareness they are offering. My favorite class is the yoga and movement class which incorporates stretching and yoga with some fun upbeat dance moves on the yoga mat with light weights. It's very fun!!! I would highly recommend that you drop in and try a class anytime you're here in Maui.

I was in Maui a few years ago for a couple weeks to work on my relaxation. One place I would highly recommend going to if you're on the island is Maui Yoga Path. Not only to you get the joy of hearing the ocean waves during the class, but the practice is also extremely wonderful. I was a beginner and was nervous going in, but the instructor was patient, explained all of the poses and would assist me as I went through. My experience was excellent. I would recommend Maui Yoga Path to anyone visiting or living there.

We had an amazing experience at Maui Yoga Path. The instructor was very mindful of the different levels of participants in the class. Studio was beautiful too. Class rates up there as one of the best I've taken in a long time. Wish I would have found it sooner. Hope to return to Maui and make their classes part of my vacation!

Maui Yoga Path is the studio to visit when in Kihei, HI. Deni Roman takes yoga to a new level with a serious focus on proper technique. Her ability to cue the student, emphasize proper posture and understand the limitations - and potential of her students is rare. I have been a student of yoga for 15years and Deni has spoiled me for other classes. I tell everyone I know to go to this studio for the ultimate yoga instruction - Maui-style. Oh, and it doesn't hurt that you can see and hear the ocean from the yoga mat.

Deni is an excellent Iyengar Yoga teacher whose commitment to this path is evident in her teaching and in the way she lives her life. She had a strong impact on me and in attending a workshop in Vancouver with her I met other people who had also experienced something similar. She inspired me to pursue an Iyengar Yoga Path because with her I could sense a depth of something I wanted to experience for myself. Her yoga studio is spacious and lovely. The teachers she has chosen to work there are also excellent. So if you are looking for what yoga has to offer beyond a physical workout....I highly recommend
