West End Yoga Studio, Lancaster PA

I have found an accepting, lovely, fun, and supportive community as well as a yoga studio devoid of ego, guilt, and competition. For $45.00 for the first month I was allowed and encouraged to go to as many of classes as I could. I have learned about the different types of yoga and the types that are best for me. But from all of the teachers I heard the same general idea-"Listen to your body. What does it need? Maybe one side is more flexible, maybe one side more sore, honor those differences. "
The hour I'm lucky enough to spend in the studio with these fellow students of all adult ages and abilities and with skilled teachers that authentically encourage and support, is one I look forward to each day. I am sleeping better, function with less pain, feel stronger, and feel total acceptance when I walk through their doors-no judgements, just hellos.
I can't believe how lucky I am to have found this studio.

West End Yoga Studio offers a nice variety of classes with something for every body type and level of experience. The teachers and students are friendly and welcoming.

It’s a nice place to relax, expect it can get crowded and it’s not worth the amount they charge for it.

I found West End Yoga after relocating back to the area last year. I remember the first time I walked into the studio; the energy was so positive and inviting that I knew I had found my new community. It is so exciting to be able to grow my practice with all the excellent instructors and through the various classes offered. This studio is one of a kind!

The moment you enter the West End Yoga Studio, you will feel comfortable and accepted. This is truly an inviting and safe space to practice. In each class you will find a wide range of ages, physical abilities, and body sizes. Instructors give lots of different options to accommodate everyone where they are at in their practice. If you’re looking for a place to grow physically and mentally healthier you should definitely sign up for a class!

As part of our weekend in Lancaster to celebrate my wife’s retirement and birthday recently, we decided to participate in the Yoga on the Roof event at Tellus360 on Saturday, September 3rd.
Upon our arrival, we were warmly greeted by Megan who set a relaxing atmosphere by her engaging and gentle presence infused with a little bit of humor!
The setting was perfect, with the amazing views of the city and the beautiful late summer weather that morning and most especially the invigorating and uplifting practice session led by Megan.
It was great start to our day and look forward to joining the group again soon.

Many thanks to Megan and West End Yoga for a wonderful experience-NAMASTE!

I was absolutely delighted to find West End Yoga when I recently re-located to PA after 6 years in New Orleans. I was looking for a studio that encourages yoga as not only a practice but also a lifestyle and I found it here. The teachers are excellent and are both knowledgeable and caring. I believe the Universe led me where I needed to be when I needed to be there. West End Yoga is definitely my yoga home.

What a great experience. I contacted Jessie at West End, because my family and a few of our other family friends were coming to Lancaster for a weekend for my wife's 40th birthday. Jessie send a yoga instructor to the house, because all the wives enjoy yoga. When nobody else would even entertain the idea, Jessie sent one of her best, and all our wives LOVED her. She ran a fantastic class, and everyone was super happy.

Jessie was great. She was communicative the whole way. Reasonably priced. Excellent quality of yoga instructor. Overall, a 10/10 experience!

I've been to many yoga studios and this is my favorite. I live somewhat far from the studio but I like it so much I try to get in often. So happy I found this place.

Wow! We arranged with the studio to have Neida join us at our weekend getaway house for a private yoga session. Neida was just terrific - the perfect amount of direction, support and encouragement. While we had indicated we were novice practitioners, Neida was able to find our strengths as a group and adjust our session immediately. As the class went on, she continued to move us into a terrific number of poses. We all left the session refreshed and rejuvenated. A terrific start to our day. Thank you, Neida and West End!

I have taken an online class and an in person class and loved both! Rachel led the online class and she was vibrant, explained everything beautifully and did a great job holding space for students in the room as well as online. Jenny led the in person class and she was funny, natural and welcoming. I was running late for the in person class and couldn't find parking. I called the studio and Jonina stayed on the phone with me until I was parked and notified the teacher that I would be running late. So glad I decided to check this place out!

Update: After practicing here regularly for about a month, my impression gets only better, especially the teaching. I managed to pry myself awake and out to Jessie’s Early Rise and Flow this morning. She took us through a new and challenging flow, encouraging, observing and helping us with well directed cues. Nothing is rote here. The teaching is fluid and organic. Teachers excel at sensing the needs of the students and teaching effectively to multiple levels. Let’s just keep on working hard and caring for each other. Thank you.

I moved to the Lancaster area recently and was pleased to be welcomed by the community of West End Yoga. The studio is conveniently located downtown and has plenty of parking. I opted for monthly membership and am definitely getting my money’s worth. There are a variety of classes offered throughout the week running the gamut from Vinyasa to Traditional Hatha and Yin and Restorative. The teachers I have encountered have all been wonderful. I was especially pleased to practice with the studio’s owner, Jessie, on Sunday morning at a local park. An added bonus for me was to find Tai Chi also offered twice a week. I find it to be a wonderful complement to my yoga practice.

Jessie offered the perfect Saturday class - as someone who does not often do Yoga, she was extremely clear in her instruction and it was the perfect mix of meditative, mobilizing, and strengthening. Thank you!

All of the Classes at West End are wonderful and uniquely different with each instructor. From rooftop Yoga and Tellus with Jennifer to in studio classes with Jessie, I always appreciate my time on the Mat with the West End Studio Team!

Had a great experience here. Great atmosphere, very welcoming group, and the instructor was amazing. I highly recommend checking out the Monday mid-day pause and reset with Rachel Sammon. What a great way to start your week. The instructor did a great job of setting a pace and helping everyone get the most out of the session. Really appreciated her insight and knowledge.
