How it started, how it’s going and what Crystal wants you to know.

Long-time Firelight Yoga Member, Crystal, talks about her yoga journey.

“When I started just focusing on just me and my mat, it didn’t matter what everyone else was doing around me.”

“Yoga has definitely reminded me that I’m enough… in any space.”

– Crystal B.

What class should I start with?

Gentle Flow and Deep Stretch classes are a great place to start! If you know you want to try heated classes, please work up to Sculpt and Power classes. We recommend starting out with Hot Gentle Flow or even Hot Vinyasa.

When should I arrive?

We recommend arriving 15 min. before class so there is time to meet the teacher and receive a short studio tour without feeling rushed. It’s also nice to have time to lay down your mat, gather any needed props and relax a bit before class begins! (Our front door opens 15 minutes before class start time and locks when classes begin.) Give yourself time to navigate traffic and parking if applicable. If you are late for class, we will not be able to allow you into the yoga room out of consideration for the teacher and fellow yogis.

Is there anything I need to do before I arrive?

It will save time at check-in if you have your client account created (which is done at the time you purchase the intro special) AND fill out the liability waiver HERE.

We also encourage you to come to class hydrated, especially if you are taking a hot class, and eat a light meal 2+ hours before your practice.

Where should I park? (What to know about driving, biking and taking public transit to FLY.)

If Driving: Parking is all free, street parking in the neighborhood. Please do not park in the parking lot behind the building. These spots are reserved for condo owners only. You may be towed if you park there. Please also be mindful that you are not blocking the driveways of our neighbors. Give yourself plenty of time to find parking and walk 1-2 blocks to the studio front entrance.

If Biking: We highly recommend locking your bike at the back of the building. There is a covered bike rack at the rear condo entrance with a security camera recording 24/7. After parking your bike here, you will need to walk around the building to our front entrance. This may not be as convenient as the front bike rack, but it is more secure and out of the elements.

If taking public transit: The MAX yellow line and Bus #72 stop right outside our studio’s front door!

 

What should I bring/wear?

Bring your yoga mat if you have one and a water bottle. (We rent and sell yoga mats too.) There are filtered water spigots in all of our bathrooms (Women’s, Men’s and Gender Neutral) to refill your water bottle, but we also have water bottles for sale if needed.

A towel to cover your yoga mat is recommended if you are taking a heated class. This will help prevent slipping as the sweat starts to drip! Mat towels can be rented or purchased at the studio as well.

Wear comfortable, breathable clothing that you can move freely in. Depending on the class, you may sweat quite a bit!

Community Testimonials

I absolutely adore this studio and its genuinely welcoming atmosphere.

Several years ago I found myself in a familiar rut, and really needing a new outlet and expanded community. Years before I had tried hot yoga, and thought it wasn’t not for me. I’m so, so glad I opened myself up to it again because Firelight has been a grounding presence in my life ever since. The instructors are top notch, and you just get a good feeling about how they feel about being there. The owners clearly put a lot into building community with their members and instructors, and that trust between all of us makes me feel great about going back again and again. When I first started coming to the studio I was only really there in the cool months, but I’m now there year round. It’s actually a little quieter in the summer and you get to spread out a bit more in class. Cheers and thank you, Firelight Yoga!

Absolutely best yoga studio AAAA+++

The staff is great! Not one bad experience. I was new to the yoga world and skeptical at first, but the staff/instructors made me feel comfortable and made this experience a great one. Even though this was the 1st studio I ever joined, I can tell you that everyone was very professional and knew how to make everyone feel comfortable. Highly recommended!

Just what I need

After searching for gentle classes at times that fit my schedule, I landed here, and I’m so happy I did! I’ve tried a handful of classes with different instructors and enjoyed them all. When I’m at FLY, I finally feel safe enough to physically and mentally engage in the true healing of yoga. I appreciate the careful attention they give to their members: locking the outside door during classes, holding a variety of classes offered at different times throughout the week, offering cold eucalyptus towels, writing welcome cards, holding workout challenges, giving discounts for teachers, and allowing easy online class reservations. Shoutout to Amy Liss for helping me to truly fall in love with yoga. Thank you, all for providing such an amazing space.

The best thing I could do for myself!

Words can’t even begin to describe how grateful I am to have found such a lively, yet relaxing, studio. Each class I have taken has exceeded any expectation that I had, and I have left feeling confident, strong, and capable. I don’t want to exclude any of the wonderful instructors, as I have loved taken classes from all, but I especially loved any class I have taken with Joey, Amy, Leah, or Zach. They are all so supportive! Firelight is the best thing I could have done for my mental and physical health, so thank you, from the bottom of my heart for a great intro month and I am so excited to continue my membership!

My Sanctuary

FLY is literally my second home! A sanctuary for my body, mind and spirit. The staff is friendly and welcoming, the studio is clean and you can find an easy flow or an ass kicking warm or room temp class any day of the week. So much love for this place.
