I have been going to Younga Yoga for ten years. Russ and Deb cultivate a beautiful community and have fun challenges that everyone can participate in. Their discipline is the best, challenging, fun, and done with a huge dash of loving kindness. Highly recommended.

Younga is just a wonderful space, both online and in person (Not that THAT's been able to happen for a long time!!). The gentleness of the teachers still comes through the screen. The adaptability of the practice to make it your own is fantastic and I never feel pressured to reach a certain level but rather to accept my steady progress. Each morning that I attend class, my day is always changed for the better, both in my body and in my mind.

As a long time member of this studio,
I cannot speak highly enough of the professionalism, commitment and friendliness of the staff and teachers. They have been outstanding throughout the disruptions caused by lockdowns and Covid. Well done to you all and many thanks for keeping my practice on track.

I like that the classes are online (as I live in Victoria now!) I like that there are a range of teachers who are all different in their intensity of practice but give options for decreasing and increasing the intensity. Deb and Russ' approach to the business feels warm, welcoming and friendly and carefully curated. I LOVE the yin classes (especially Renee who is an absolute angel) and although I wish there were more restorative classes the with online classes I feel much freer to rest when I need.
