All of the classes offered at JAI are rooted in the lineage of Vinyasa Yoga. Vinyasa literally means to place with intention. This is translated in asana (posture) classes as placing the breath with the movement of the body. Yoga means to yoke, or unite. At JAI we aim to offer you tools to connect mind, body and spirit.

Privates can be one on one with just you and the instructor or held as a private class with a group. Email us to book a class. Scheduling the very best teachers means you are scheduling very busy teachers.

Your credit card will be billed once/month depending on level of commitment, after which, you may cancel with a 30 days notice. A 3-month minimum commitment is required and 6 and 12 month memberships are available for an even better deal.
Please contact us with any questions re: your memberships. Our deepest appreciation goes to those of you who have stuck with us through these difficult times and a very unprecedented year for our studio. Thank you so much to those who have donated some of your months "off" to the studio, made donations in general and those of you who have kept up your practices online, in person and on the Portal.

Jai Yoga School is an inviting studio. Staff and teachers are waiting to greet you with a warm smile each time you walk in. Tons on class offerings for all levels and at convenient times. Teachers are knowledgeable and every class I've taken has a rewarding experience.

I took a long break from yoga and was a little nervous to go back. I have enjoyed Jai yoga. The location has a wonderful vibe and the instructors are accommodating. I also really enjoy that each class has a diverse group of students from age, gender, body type, etc… I don’t feel like I have to be a certain way to fit in.

Always a great class with thoroughly experienced instructors! This was first visit in quite a while but always my first choice for the best yoga practice in my area! Experienced educated and trained instructors and always an authentic practice. See you again soon!

Fully in love with this yoga studio and the beautiful community they have cultivated here. Even if I haven’t been to a class (or on my mat) for months, every time I am here it feels like home and I am lovingly invited to recenter my yoga practice and myself. They have so many class offerings, there is something for every one and every level of yogi (tho I am partial to Dustin’s Wednesday AM class and Meg’s Sunday class is always what I didn’t even know I needed). So grateful for Jai!

I absolutely love coming to Jai for yoga! Every time I practice there I feel so comfortable. Meg is so knowledgeable of her craft and cares if you’re doing the poses correctly. She takes the time to help correct you and makes sure you’re getting the most of your practice. We always start with chants and/or om’s which is a great way to get going! I leave sweaty, lighter, focused and ready to tackle life. I highly recommend Jai to everyone!

What a welcome addition of Stephen to an already stellar team of yoga instructors at Jai. His Thursday evening candlelight class incorporates a gentle, serene beginning, then flowing into active movement at a pace that allows for a mindful and fulfilling practice. What a wonderful way to wind down from a full day -- restored and renewed for the new day ahead!

After having been a yoga teacher and student back in NYC for a couple years, I took a few years away from the mat for various reasons. Finding Jai has reignited my practice with their challenging and meditative classes and talented teachers. I've taken a few classes here now with Meg, Dustin, Deb, and Mandy and really loved them all. They all have their own welcoming style and vibe that I really appreciate. Also, the space is really lovely and a welcoming place to practice. Very grateful to have found this studio.

JAI Yoga School is truly an incredible place. Not only as a studio, but as a community. I have been practicing here as a student for three years, and now as a teacher myself for 2. The authenticity behind every class is remarkable, and I truly do not know where I would be without this space. There new facility is incredible!!

I have so many great things to say about Jai! On a recent visit to upstate NY to visit family for the holidays, I visited Jai four times in one week for yoga. This studio compares to my favorites in my home city (LA) and I just love the good vibes here!
I took a variety of yoga classes and was happy to find that Jai is NOT hot yoga (which seems to be popular in upstate NY). The studio is GORGEOUS- it makes you feel like you're walking into a clean, green oasis! So many plants, lots of storage space, beautiful calming colors, and props galore. It was kept warm but not hot.

Had a GREAT class with Victoria at 6:00 PM on Thursday. Nice space, both shared space / check-in area as well as class room. Luckily there were only two of us, so she was able to adjust us, when necessary, which I LOVE. She had a wonderful flow and great energy. Bonus points to her for incorporating a BEAUTIFUL chant to both open and close our practice. She knows what she's doing and I was NOT disappointed. I'll definitely visit again when I'm in town.
