The Grinning Yogi PDX - SE

More people need to know about how awesome The Grinning Yogi is. This isn't just another yoga studio. This is a wonderful, supportive, fun, fabulous community that celebrates who you are, just as you are. The classes are fun, and done to great music. All the instructors are amazing. You'll feel so good afterwards. I've attended many yoga studios, and this one is my home.

TGY is a wonderful home studio for more energetic and lively flow classes. Welcoming community of teachers and students. I have attended classes with almost all the teachers here and done many of the events/ workshops and fun community outings like Grinning Brunch Club, where we all go out after a class to some of Portland's most divine morning eateries and get to know each other better. Thank You Jamie the owner for always putting on great events in and out of studio that help everyone connect. It is so appreciated and awesome! I crave class at TGY, the music, the flow, the building heat and both the physical and mental challenge all keep me focused and engaged and wanting more. Do yourself a favor and stop into the studio- they have very affordable pricing and lots of class options to fit any schedule. ALSO- ALWAYS say YES to the LIVE DJ flow classes they are truly beautiful and not to be missed! Lots of Love!

I've been going to TGY for about 1 year now and within the first 10 minutes of my first class with Jamie the owner, I was completely hooked. I was relieved to find such an awesome studio since I had been hopping around quite a bit trying to find just the right one. TGY was everything I wanted and needed in both my life and my yoga practice. Some of my favorite things about the studio is the varying levels of classes, the well thought out and put together flows, the personal stories the teachers share and the fantastic music. There are lots of different classes to choose from depending on your mood, skill level and whatever your body needs for the week. The community is also very supportive and friendly, which makes you feel at home. You seriously cannot go wrong with TGY!

It's a home away from home if you're a transplant!! The classes are INCREDIBLE, the teachers are real, and funny, and experienced. They provide tons of options for taking postures up a notch, or going easier-and I've never felt judged for not knowing something, or not being able to get into a more challenging pose. Definitely the best yoga I've found in PDX!

I absolutely love this place. Every class I take is so perfect for me that day. The instructors are all very talented, the owner is amazing, the space is beautiful and conveniently located especially if you don't have to find a parking space, and the class size is just right. Thank you for creating a space where I can practice my practice!!! So grateful!

I was visiting Portland for a day and a half and was referred by lulu to give this studio a try; I'm so glad I did. I attended two classes, both taught by Jamie and it was exactly what I was looking for. A beautiful space with a teacher full of heart, wisdom and humor. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic yoga studio! The Grinning Yogi is amazing. The community, instructors and yoga practice are all A+. I've shopped around and tried many yoga studios in Portland, and the Grinning Yogi is by far my fav!

this is a great studio. my only criticism is that they pretty much only offer one class regularly, and that is groove flow. there will be days in a row on the schedule where that’s the only class. otherwise it’s a lovely space !

Gorgeous studio with knowledgable, caring, professional yogis at the helm. This is hands down my favorite place to practice yoga in Portland!

I love this studio it's modern and the class I've chosen is athletic but doable and I'm still building strength. Always feel welcome as the teachers are very good!
