Editorial Review for Yoga Yoga North – by Melanie Haupt
In Short
The friendly instructors have assembled a weekly schedule of more than 65 classes from prenatal yoga for expetant moms to children's yoga for kids ages five to eight, and nine to 13. Each location boasts its recycled-fiber carpeting, simulated natural sunlight and purified drinking water. Have allergy problems? The studio is continually purged of all those sneeze-inducing baddies. Looking for killer workout? Try the kundalini and ashtanga classes. Or try hatha yoga for something lighter.

The instructors are great, really enjoy the ashtanga class. Overall, good variety of classes, best yoga in Austin.
Pros: instructors, classes

I've been going to Yoga Yoga North for several years now because of the convenient location, friendly staff, and readily available props. Nonetheless I have many complaints: * Crowding: Classes are often crowded, especially on weekday evenings and with popular teachers. * Quality: The teachers vary widely in this respect, although very few made me genuinely upset. If you run into a bad teacher, try again with another and you'll probably like them. * Dangerous methods: There's a real problem with teachers trying to run intermediate classes at an advanced level. Less experienced folks get hurt because they get exhausted and don't realize they're in over their heads. Good yoga should not cause injuries! * Time management: Some of the teachers are not very good at showing up for class on time and finishing on time (their famed yogi tea isn't quite as good when it's cold because class finished 20 minutes late). The studio also routinely tolerates students who are chronically late, causing numerous interruptions at the beginning of every single class. This lack of discipline runns (sic - citysearch flagged that as an "inappropriate word") contrary to what yoga is about.
Pros: Good teachers, nice atmosphere, friendly staff, convenient for me, good props
Cons: Bad teachers, dangerous methods, expensive, poor discipline
