Always amazing!!
Pauline's intentionality and precision with her instruction truly makes for a powerful class. I highly recommend.
Dawn, thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you had a good experience in class. Hope to see you again soon!
I recently attended a free beginner's yoga class at Alcove Yoga in Houston, Texas. It was a very positive experience. The yoga studio is beautiful, well-equipped, and well organized. I appreciated the peaceful and friendly atmosphere. The teachers seemed down-to-earth. I am not a total beginner, but a few of the people in the class had never tried any yoga practice before. They seemed comfortable and received whatever additional pointers they needed.
This yoga studio offers training in the Iyengar Yoga lineage. Iyengar is a very well-known and respected teacher whose book, Light on Yoga, is a classic.
I plan to attend more classes at Alcove Yoga in the future.
Thank you, Marianne!
Instructor was patient, attentive, calming and knowledgeable. Location was quiet and kept cold air out haha
That instructor was Sophia! Thank you for your kind words, Kim!
Practicing Iyengar yoga under Pauline’s guidance is transformative. She is an incredible teacher.
Thank you, Anna! It's been wonderful having you as a student!
This is the best yoga studio in Houston. Pauline is knowledgeable, caring, and deeply experienced. Taking classes at Alcove is an essential component of my physical and mental well being.
Thank you, Katherine. It's great to have such dedicated long time student like you.
While visiting Houston I was able to take Ageless Asana classes at Alcove for 4 weeks. I'm so glad I found this yoga studio! The instructors are exceptional, the studio is well equipped, and the other students are very welcoming. I highly recommend Alcove Yoga.
You're welcome any time, Alys! Thanks for the kind words.
The yoga studio at Alcove yoga is beautiful with an atmosphere very conducive to calming down and focusing.
Our teacher was the very hard working
Pauline. She is experienced and very knowledgeable.
Any student interested in learning should be able to see a difference in a short time
Thank you Mary!
I joined Pauline’s Beginners’ class as a complete newcomer to yoga, and I brought Myra along with me—she was looking for a refresher after being away from practice for quite some time. It turned out to be a wonderful choice for both of us.
The class moves at a dynamic pace, which at times felt a little fast for me since my body has grown stiff from lack of natural exercise. Just as I would begin to feel settled in a posture, we were already moving to the next one. That said, I realize I’m a slow learner in these things, and the challenge is part of what makes the practice effective. After only a short time, I could feel it working—my body loosening, tension releasing, and I even noticed that my left side is more flexible than my right, something I had never realized before.
Pauline’s teaching style is clear, encouraging, and infused with an upbeat energy that keeps the class positive and engaging. She brings both charm and precision to her instruction, making it approachable for beginners while still engaging for those returning to practice. The energy in the space itself is also highly positive, which makes showing up each week a pleasure.
Overall, this class is excellent for anyone ready to commit to a one-hour practice each week. If you’re brand-new, eager to learn, or looking to return to Iyengar yoga after a long break, I’d recommend it wholeheartedly.
Experienced my first Alcove Yoga class this evening and it exceeded my expectations! I haven’t stepped into a yoga studio in years, so was feeling a little nervous. Pauline was inviting, clear with her instructions, attentive, and all around an amazing teacher. The class was extremely welcoming, and I cannot wait for my next class!
Thanks Corey! I'm so glad you came to Alcove Yoga!
Thanks, Andrea!
