In 2017, I took my first step into Ohmies, and it was nothing short of a transformative experience. As a proud Bronx native, the moment I crossed the threshold, I felt an instant sense of belonging, as though I had returned to the heart of NYC.
For me it was all about the vibrant colors, the inspiring words adorning the walls, and the enchanting décor that all seamlessly worked together to dissolve the busy streets of New Jersey, whisking me away to a place of comfort and familiarity.
Fast forward to 2023, and Ohmies still holds an irresistible allure over me. Though I can't visit as frequently as my heart desires, the studio's magnetic pull remains undeniable. The exceptional instructors, such as Jasmin, Erica Maria, David, Dana, and, of course, the extraordinary owner, Lisa, effortlessly cultivate an atmosphere that radiates warmth and positivity.
Lisa's exceptional talent for creating and nurturing something extraordinary within this space is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Her passion and dedication shine through, making Ohmies a haven of peace and tranquility amidst the chaos of daily life.
Ohmies has evolved beyond a simple yoga studio; it has become a sanctuary where I can STILL escape from the current hustle...
Read moreI have been attending Ohmies regularly for a year and a half. I have practiced yoga for 14 years on and off, but Ohmies is the first place where I can say that I have truly stuck with it.

Once you start practicing with Ohmies, they make sure that you feel at home, and can practice to your comfort level. There is the most variety of classes I have ever seen at a yoga studio, and the most variety of teaching styles for all types of learners and yogi preferences. I started by taking one beginners class a week and now take 4 to 5 classes in varied styles because I enjoy it so much. I even attended Lisa‘s yoga retreat in Guatemala last summer, and can say it was truly transformational!
In addition to Yoga, Ohmies has a beautiful way of creating community by hosting a variety of events throughout the month, which are all included in membership or available for a small up-charge. I would highly recommend you come in and try a class or stop...
Read moreJust finished my first meal from Ohmies, and I can promise you there will be many more. I'm vegetarian and I dont eat eggs, Ohmies has a wonderful selection of vegan options for the diet restricted. Its not an elaborate, 5 page menu of vegan choices, but they have a few options and most importantly, THEY ARE EXCELLENT!! The food is not heavy or over seasoned, its light, tasty, and leaves you feeling satisfied, not weighed down. The prices are excellent, not excessively over-priced like a lot of vegan restaurants. The portions are just right, not super tiny or way over the top like some places. The atmosphere is very nice inside, quiet, peaceful, coffee-shop esq. And the donuts...oh mie! Best vegan donuts I've had in NJ. Not too sweet, very soft, VERY well done. I actually forgot I was eating a vegan donut! My wife and I cannot wait to come back again for more soon! Just for reference, we had vegan quesadillas, vegan tuna sandwich, vegan bacon grilled cheese, Avocado toast (WOW), and the Boston creme and Canolli (WOW...
