M3 Yoga & Hot Pilates Atlanta — Local services in Atlanta

Much of my love for M3 is personal to me: mainly, I can walk there, and their schedule suits my life nicely.

The space is simple, but inviting. Small lobby, and two yoga rooms: one heated and one regular.

There aren't showers or anything fancy, but I live nearby so not an issue for me.

I've been a member for about two months now, and I'm quite happy with the variety of instructors as well as the class options. I've taken classes with six different instructors, and there are still many more I've yet to explore.

My favorite aspect is the variety of classes, everything from Inferno Pilates to Restorative. For me specifically, I'm thankful for the quantity of stretch classes. The 8pm stretch classes also work as a nice opportunity for meditation to wind down evening.

UPDATE After finishing my third month, I've finally dabbled in some of the more challenging classes; including, Hot Power Flow, Inferno Pilates, and Inferno Strength. The full array of class styles offered by M3 will allow anyone to pursue any type of body conditioning they seek.

I've now taken classes under thirteen different instructors. And while I do prefer some over others, I've yet to have an instructor I wouldn't eagerly take again.

For the record, I'm still very much a novice. I don't know position names, I certainly cannot achieve every position offered, and I frequently need to take breaks. None of that is an obstacle. Classes are so welcoming and personal. The instructors keep the classes flexible in structure for all levels.

On average, they offer six to eight different classes during the week. So I'm still able to find classes around my chaotic schedule. Weekend schedules are thinner, but I tend to be booked on weekends anyway.

Lastly, I've really grown to enjoy the community within M3. I'm impressed by how the staff greats students, how many names they remember, and how inviting everyone is.

While I have only attended one class at this studio, I was quite impressed! I did a HIIT hot room workout they call Inferno Power Pilates. The instructor (and co-owner), Nick, was clear with his instruction including general exercise and form. He was also inspiring with a humorous and fun side all coordinated to music. He personally reached out before and after class to answer questions and get feedback. I thought he was wonderful! The studio has a hot room (95 degrees) that can accommodate about 40 and a regular temp room to accommodate about 16. The vibe there was supportive with a community of camaraderie and I know MANY people that would enjoy and excel in this environment. They offer many different class passes including unlimited at a very reasonable price including some intro options for new students of the studio. A great solution for the hot room practitioners out there! Give it a try and I think...

In a sometimes soulless desert of corporate yoga, M3 stands out as an oasis true to the spirit of the 8 limbs of yoga.

Like many of us, the yoga journey has taken me to different places, times and spaces. I had the very good fortune to land along the way at a place that imbued me with love and knowledge for the art.

Some cities and many studios later, I am happy to have found a new yoga home. I hope you will too.

The 30 day initial offering is a great way to get to know the range of classes and instructors. I found that the vast majority were both mindfully and passionately taught with a subtlety that, to me, also speaks to the soul of yoga.

To truly nurture the mind, body and breath connection, and if you invite it, the spirit as well, is no easy task. At the end of the day, while I am the final arbiter of my own wellness, I feel very grateful to have a place like M3 to help support me in...
