One of the real pleasures of my travels is the opportunity to visit yoga studios all over the country, and one of the exceptional studios that I have encountered is Yoga Mountain Shadows in Colorado Springs. I had the opportunity to take two classes at the studio, one on Tuesday from 4:30-5:30 and another on Wednesday from 6:00 am until 7:00 am. Both classes were heated flow classes, and the first was taught by the young lady on the right in the featured image, Elsbeth. Also pictured is Jennifer who also teaches at the studio.

The waiting area is very large and well-appointed, with a nice selection of yoga gear on hand. There are three studio spaces. The main space is a very large room that is used for heated classes and can accommodate on the order of 40 students. There is a room that is half that size that is used for room temperature classes, and a third room that is fully matted on the floor and is used for aerial silk and acrobatics classes.

The two classes I took were both heated flow classes, and I enjoyed both of them thoroughly. Both students and staff are very friendly and welcoming, and they have a wonderful introductory offer of a week of unlimited classes for only ten dollars. I enjoyed the experience and the ambience very much, and if I do get back to the Springs in the future I will be sure to return.
