Centered City Yoga has filled a void which has existed for me since moving to Salt Lake six years ago; it is a studio of incredibly talented, highly trained, professional and devoted (both to yoga and to the clientele) teachers of varied backgrounds, styles and approaches to their teaching. I learn different things from each and every one of you. Very importantly to me, class is always different with a fabulous schedule which makes it impossible to not make a class; it is in no way ever repetitive or lacking in fresh input and creativity. I always feel challenged and inspired at Centered City. Plus, you all are fun, funny and a blast without losing the meditative and internal aspect of the practice---that is a real talent! In addition to all of the above, I would say that the thing that makes you different is that you have created a true community with the opportunity to deliver very valuable community services. I am boggled by all that you do and I am inspired to be a much more involved person because of your example. You bring in incredible people, you make it possible for moms to be there with your childcare, do benefits, etc.etc. That is unique and wonderful. Thanks, Dana, for all you have done for us all.

Depending on the day, yoga is my exercise, my religion or my therapy. But always, it is my salvation. I look to yoga practice to better myself inside and out, and through it I have struggled, grown, and even spent three glorious seconds in Crow. When Centered City came to 9th and 9th my yoga practice took on a whole new level; that of community. For so many years I had gone to yoga classes wanting to be invisible, wanting to be the last one in the back door and the first one out, because I thought that was the only way I could make it “me” time, which I get so little of. With my first class at Centered City I realized how refreshing it is to talk to the person on the mat next to you, and be in an environment that facilitates questions, respect, and most importantly, a little laughter. I love the fact that I see half my neighborhood in your classes now. My husband refers to it as “Yale Yoga.” Thanks you for reminding me of the importance of community, and for teaching me that yoga doesn’t have to be solemn to be effective. I have learned more about technique and improving my practice in the months that Centered City has been open than in the previous five years I’d been doing yoga!
