Black Swan Yoga on Lovers Lane, Dallas TX

LOVE LOVE Black Swan! The best yoga practice I have experieced! Alonda is amazing. 11: 30 Thursday.its a must try

Great, donation based yoga studio. This is an inclusive environment and community. Since there are a variety of instructors, the classes really vary, which I find to be part of the fun. You can definitely find the type of yoga you want if you’re open to try.

I’ve come to this studio on class pass as well as had a membership! The unlimited membership is great value! The instructors are all awesome and very welcoming and friendly! They were even very understanding when I had to cancel my membership due to tearing my ACL. As a former studio owner myself I can tell you that this place is doing many things right! As soon as I’m healed up I hope to return!

Best yoga class and instructor east to follow and giving options and non judgmental! Loved it!

Taylor was AMAZING, I was a first timer and she welcomed me with open arms! I felt so relaxed and calm when I left the class. I will definitely be back!

I’ve only had good experiences, and I’ve been many times! I love the variety in types of classes and instructors, so every time is a different experience. Also I appreciate how it is donation-based and making the practice more available to anyone that needs it. As someone who struggles with anxiety, I always leave class with a sense of peace and bring their lessons into my daily life and practice.

I've only been going here about a week now, but I cannot fully express how elated I am to have found this place. But I'll try!
First off, the selection of classes is unlike anywhere else I've been in that the majority of them are Power Yoga classes. Now, for the uninitiated, don't be daunted by the name as it simply implies a class that flows together (similar to a dance) and at times can be a little faster paced. Furthermore, each class is unique to the teacher, and it seems the teachers will generally change up the sequences of their classes on a monthly basis, so there's little chance of ever getting bored. I've enjoyed every teacher I've had thus far, and highly recommend any of them: Dana, Marcos, James, Alondra, Cande, Dan, & Jorge.
The classes themselves are challenging yet structured beautifully, and the teachers cue ample opportunities for easier modifications or more virtuosic variations. I especially like that there isn't a set sequence to the classes, as I find that can get quite old quite fast. The classes leave you feeling tested yet inspired, with a palpable sense of harmony and connectedness that I am not totally sure how to explain.
The space is open and expansive, which is good since the classes here are popular and well-attended. The lighting is primarily natural rays spilling in from elevated windows, but they also appear to have gallery lighting for when the sun goes down. They have a new floor as well. The temperature is just right for me, being in the low to mid 90s, which I feel allows me to focus on the movement rather than be distracted by how hot I feel, such as at other Bikram-based studios. The facilities are clean and well-kept, though I do wish the water dispenser they have also chilled the water.
Lastly, the class price is simply unbeatable. For single drop in classes, suggested donation is between $10-$20, which is an absolute steal when you consider the quality of the classes. Even the monthly membership option is a pittance at $88 a month!
Again, I am so thrilled I have found this studio, and look forward to expanding my practice with them for a long time!

Love Black Swan. I think the most helpful thing to know is that every teacher is super different so if you don't like your experience try another teacher. This isn't a place with a uniform style and you can definitely find someone you like. Every instructor has a different vibe, style, personality, and flow. Try them all and pick your flavor.

I will also mention that I've been to many Beginner classes here and even in those classes most teachers assume a base level of knowledge. If you are a true beginner and are learning moves and poses for the very first time and want hands on assistance or for the instructor to slowly break down each movements you may try a video or another place (or try every Beginner instructor at BSY). I've only really experienced one or two instructors who break the poses and movements down for true beginners. Just something to keep in mind but definitely not a deal breaker.

Great studio with awesome instructors. The 7pm slow flow on Sundays with Alyssa is my favorite class. Can’t recommend this yoga studio enough!

There are a lot of really good instructors at this studio, but if I had to pick a favorite it would have to be Cande V. Her positive, upbeat attitude is contagious and the benefits that I get from her classes are ones that the gym alone simply cannot provide (core strength/stability, athletic injury rehab/prevention, calmness, and relaxation). If you have not been here before I highly recommend giving one of her classes a go!

I cannot rave about BSY enough. Marco is my favorite instructor…PERIOD. His classes always feels cathartic and I have this spiritual release and empowerment to start my day. I loved to Cali and haven’t found one that even comes close. Literally my favorite Hot Yoga studios ever! Please open one in LA!
