Wellspring Yoga

Lyengar style yoga focuses on alignment and helps ensure you are doing poses properly. My instructor was very knowledgeable and explained why he had us do poses, the benefits, etc. I took 4 classes here and while I appreciated the learning, I never felt like I was strengthening anything or that I was unwound from the day. Most of the participants in these classes were over 50 -- some closer to 70 -- which shows how accessible yoga can be. I thought these classes were well-taught. If just wasn't what I was looking for in a yoga class.

There is a new instructor named Lisa Aniello who teaches vinyasa flow with such erudition, grace, and empathy. She really tailors the session according to your needs and comfort level. Lisa's passion is clearly yoga and Eastern philosophy, and she considers it a gift to be able to share it with others. She's extremely knowledgable and unintimidating. I highly recommend her!

I really enjoyed taking classes at this small studio.During my visit to ABQ I went to 3 classes and all the teachers were excellent. The classes had a mixture of beginning and intermediate students and the teaching was geared to all levels.Very worthwhile place to practice. Thanks for being so accommodating to out of town yogis!

Wellspring is the longest running yoga studio in Albuquerque and has the lovely energy gained throughout it's more than 4 decades. It is a small, sweet, humble and welcoming space with all the equipment you may want freely available. I have taught Kundalini yoga there on Tuesday evenings since 2014; and I welcome you to join us. Do something beautiful for yourself!

I have returned to Wellspring Yoga many times over the last 20 years for an occasional excellent yoga class. But now that Mikiala is teaching the restorative class on Sundays, I can say without hesitation it is the very best yoga class I have ever had! Her special combination of knowledge, teaching ability, adaptability to our aging bodies in yoga, creativity & empathy is unmatched. She blends the wonderful gifts of her/our bodies, minds & spirits in her practice & her teaching, making the experience rich beyond words. Additionally, other instructors who have substituted for her on occasion bring their own different, but also superb gifts of knowing-teaching yoga. These gifts are sorely needed in the world & society we inhabit, to say the least. For anyone serious about learning the philosophy & practice of yoga, I believe Wellspring is by far the finest in Albuquerque,& it is my pleasure to endorse & recommend this studio to all!
