At Franklin Street Yoga Center—which was voted Best Yoga Studio by Independent Weekly readers—visitors can expose their federation of limbs to a fitness fest helmed by a skilled staff of muscle menders. Boost blood circulation and smash stress deposits into milk-shake powder with classes such as the Level 1 Foundation course (appropriate for beginners), the flow- and balance-oriented Chakra Vinyasa (for all levels), and the music-fueled Rock Your Asana (designed for students with prior experience). Lay down the meditative concrete for a tranquil foundation with various poses that strengthen the core, improve flexibility, and provide newfound clear-headedness that obviates the need for magic 8 balls.

The studio's convenient schedule allows yogis to tickle their fancy and their soft underbellies with ease. Step into Franklin Street’s placid confines, become hypnotized by the lustrous wood floors, frosted floor-to-ceiling windows, and good vibes, turn off buzzing cybernetic implants, and prepare for a session of stretchiness that unites the body and mind.
