Stellar Power Yoga — Local services in Vinings

I found Stellar Power Yoga just over a year ago. I can not say enough good things. Yoga and the studio literally have transformed my life. The owner and operator (Miriam) "had me at hello” so to speak. She took an inquiry call after normal business hours and welcomed me, encouraged me to try different classes with different instructors and so my yoga journey began after a serious foot injury that no longer allowed me to run. Needless to say, I now do yoga more and run less.

The studio as well equipped with plenty of various props and tools to assist should you need them. The warm temperature is just right to help you get into those poses during each class. While those aspects of the studio are great, what makes this place truly a gem is the amazing staff. Richard, plays great music and gets your heart rate up and challenges you with detailed instruction. He changes it up so your never bored and feel like your taking the same class over and over. Just a great soul, who also happens to remind you that Yoga is a practice and journey and that will only improve over time. Cheryl is great for a vinyasa flow class. Perfect if you want to get a solid yoga session, that is gentle enough for beginners, yet challenging enough for those that have been doing yoga for a while. Her voice alone sets the tone and mood and you truly forget about the world outside the room. My schedule does not allow me to take as many of her classes as I would like, I am hoping that will change. Paige is my heart! (evening classes). She starts every class with a story or theme. I love her vulnerability and honest spirit. She truly shares herself. She is so relatable and kind, and the next thing you know, your immediately at ease and have the confidence to get through class no matter what type of day you may have had before you entered the studio. I have not seen her lately due to travels and I have missed her terribly. I even hear her voice pushing me when I am doing yoga on my own away from the studio. Her instruction is that detailed. She challenges me. She takes her time and shows you with such patience and grace and will repeat things for those that are less advanced or trying things for the first time. Her class is interactive and shows us the various ways and levels of a pose so you know where your at and where you may want to try next. Last, but not least, is Brooke. WHAT A CLASS!! I used to feel intimidated by her class. Its tough. It can be complicated (in a good way). And she does things differently. Yet… it's damn near perfect. The class is very popular so get there early for a good spot and she only teaches once a week. Her class is interactive and I have done things in her class that I never thought my body would do. I have taken risks and they paid off. I work the hardest in her class but when I am done, I feel amazing. Please know the other instructors and occasional subs are good also. I just have spent a limited time with them and don’t feel comfortable giving feedback unless it can be based on enough interaction.

Based on this review, I am sure you know by now, this is my sanctuary. I beam because of this place. It's my community. My peace. I just bought another annual membership that will have me there thought 2021 based on the great fee promotions they offer regularly. This makes this place affordable. Miriam is so creative. She has classes for children and young people. Workshops for arm balances and chakras. Classes for the whole family. There are even classes for couples, teens, and men only classes (Broga). This place has it all. We even celebrate the new year doing yoga. I mean, you won’t find anywhere else that will have something for you or a loved one. Not in Atlanta. The classes are diverse in EVERY way. Your first month is unlimited for $49.00. That way you can try it for an entire month, go to various classes with all the folks I mentioned above and see if it is for you. I am confident it will be. Hope to see you on your mat at...

I had initially started prenatal yoga at month 7 of my pregnancy with Stellar Power Yoga because I was having major breathing issues and had body pains. Literally from the first secession I was already breathing better(I used to gasp for air while sleeping). I did the prenatal yoga package and went consistently twice a week until I reached 9 months. Dipti was my instructor, she is everything I could wish for. She taught me so much about my own body, my own strength I didn’t know I had especially during my third trimester when you’re at your heaviest and most vulnerable. She taught me moves that alleviated my swollen ankles, my aching body, after a secession I always felt lighter and stronger. I want to thank the owner Miriam for being so knowledgeable and patient with me and all my questions. Thank you so much Stellar Power Yoga for the teachings, the care, the love, and most of all for teaching me how to properly meditate and calm my mind from worry and anxiety. It has made a world of a difference for me and my journey. I can’t wait to come back after the baby and experience more bliss at the regular...

Amazing yoga studio! Just try it, words cannot explain the goodness. Power Vinyasa style yoga with all the zen (but none of the hoo hah).

Having practiced yoga since about 2001, I've watched yoga in Atlanta change and grow. There's a lot more available lately and truly Atlanta has many amazing teachers and studios. Studio practices have become more physical, less holistic; more challenging, perhaps, yet less impactful. Practicing with Miriam was like coming home. I was thrilled to receive hands-on adjustment that helped me move properly into posture where she could see things I could not but I could feel once she helped. She turned and lifted my shoulders and arms in warrior one in a way I've not experienced before, causing more openness and a whole new place to explore.

I had a long conversation with Miriam after class and she is an inspiring teacher and guide. Steller Power Yoga is definitely a place where you can grow your lifetime practice. I am not local to the vinings area so I cannot be a regular there but I will make the hour long journey from my home to practice there. It's...
