YO BK - Greenpoint - Brooklyn, New York

I've been coming to this studio for over 2 years now. It's my second home. I don't know what I would do without it. Shoutout to all the instructors. It's a really great place. I have noticed a significant shift in my thinking and how I approach life just from practicing pilates and yoga. Thank you everyone at YO BK!

I see some negative reviews regarding not being let in AFTER class starts. It's for a reason! It's so distracting to the practitioners and taxing on the instructors if people keep trickling in. Yes, the city is unforgiving regarding traffic, trains etc.. just take the L, take a stroll in Mccarren Park, wander the shops on Manhattan ave. Rebook and try it.

YOBK is by far the best studio for Bikram, Mat Pilates, and Yoga in North Brooklyn. The staff are super friendly and will do anything to make their customers feel relaxed, respected, and excited to work out. Most of their customer service is done via email and they will get back to you ASAP. There’s nothing super fancy about YOBK except the vibes are

The location in Greenpoint has two heated yoga rooms. The showers have soap, shampoo, conditioner, and a hair dryer. The locations in Williamsburg and Wynwood are also great but the GP one feels like home.

I love the diversity in instructors and diversity in classes at YOBK. They have a class for whatever workout mood you’re in. This place is a fitness one stop shop, no other gym membership required (unless you want heavy weights)

My favorite classes are Ashleigh B’s Flow and Restore, Camille S’s Yin, and Sara A’s Power Yoga! YOBK I LOVE YOU

I have now been here 3x. I’d like to share a story from my most recent class.

Following my 2nd trip where an instructor acted pretty condescendingly towards me, I decided to give YoBK one more shot. I chose a different instructor, and it was horrible. Hot yoga class. The class was actually good. Until, at least, the instructor refused to let me leave the hot room 45m into the 1H class. I told her I was lightheaded and dizzy and she said “you’re fine”, and told me to rest. Eventually she left the room herself to get me a hydration packet - which was even more infuriating as she used an excuse about air pressure to explain why I couldn’t leave in the first place. Even if there was a reason to not open it, safety should have been the priority. For the next 15 minutes I sat there looking absolutely exhausted on the floor (sitting up - I couldn’t even muster the energy to lie down!) as the instructor kept encouraging me to join back in. I was on the verge of passing out and the only thing keeping me afloat was water. Absolute embarrassment.

Clearly I did not hydrate enough and the instructors here need to recognize that and not subject someone to that. YoBK offers solid classes, but with some elitist instructors. You’re better off getting a workout at YogaSpace, Ghost, SolidCore, or any other “inferno” spot.

Yobk saved me from my workout funk! The instructors are supportive, patient and motivating. I love that I recognize faces in each class and feel a community vibe when everyone is chatting before and after class. Special shoutout to Jessica - her classes are a blast and she takes time after class to make sure you have time to stretch and reflect on your workout and have some mindfulness before heading out for your day.

The hot yoga class with Jessie was awesome!! I’ll definitely be back for another class! Plus the space is clean, organized and has showers!
