Yoga In The Hood, Boise

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?

We offer yoga instruction for groups and private yoga instruction for individuals, couples, and small groups. We stand out from the competition with the personalized instruction we offer each student. We understand that yoga is not a "one-size-fits-all." We design our yoga for the beginner market and those who have wanted to try yoga but didn't know where to start, and for the person who feels not so flexible. We use all kinds of props to support each body including chairs, blocks, straps, bolsters, and blankets. We have the skills and tools to meet people where they are. We offer Soulwork which is a path of reuniting you with your true self, a spiritual awakening of sorts that helps a person regain wholeness physically, mentally, and emotionally. Soulwork is an immersion of intuitive bodywork-massage, yoga breathing, meditation, and NuVision Body Scanning. They can stand alone or be combined together depending on what the client is needing.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business?

To help people to improve their health and well-being on all levels-physical, mental, emotional, spiritual.

What do you love most about your job?

The satisfaction of helping people feel better.

What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?

"When I first started coming to Yoga in the Hood, it was my first yoga class ever. I'm not naturally a flexible person and had always put off going due to self-consciousness. Now I wish I would not have waited! The instructors at YITH adapt their lessons for all levels of experience, and do an amazing job of offering insights and making adjustments to make poses work for you. Each of them has unique insights to help your practice, and it is very evident that they are all passionate about sharing yoga with the community. I know I would never have made as much progress as I have these last couple of months at another studio or on my own. What I love most about Yoga in the Hood, though, is the community. It's an incredibly welcoming group of people from all ages, genders, and levels of experience. If you're a complete beginner to yoga or new to the idea and looking for a studio to call your own, Yoga in the Hood is the place to go!"
