What You Want to Know Before You Arrive
What is the difference between Love Yourself. Studio and the Yoni Mudra Art Gallery?
They share the same building, but they are distinct spaces. Love Yourself. Studio is a restorative yoga and movement studio located inside the Yoni Mudra Art Gallery. The gallery is a vulva-dedicated art space, while the studio focuses on yoga classes, meditation, and movement practices. Think of it as a yoga sanctuary that happens to sit within a creative gallery environment. Both share the same community spirit, but if you are coming for a yoga class or to book a space, you are coming to Love Yourself. Studio.Do I need any yoga experience to join a class?
Not at all. The studio is genuinely built for beginners and for anyone who has felt intimidated or out of place in a typical yoga setting. The philosophy here is come as you are, full stop. Classes like Restorative Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Chair Yoga are specifically designed for people who are new to movement, managing joint pain or previous injuries, or simply want to slow down. Props including blankets, bolsters, and blocks are provided to support your body wherever it is today. There is no expectation of flexibility, fitness level, or prior experience.Is the studio accessible for people with limited mobility, arthritis, or chronic pain?
Yes, and this is one of the studio's core strengths. Chair Yoga is offered specifically for people with limited mobility, joint pain, or arthritis who cannot comfortably get up and down from the floor. Restorative Yoga uses props to fully support the body in passive holds, making it appropriate for those recovering from injury or managing chronic back pain. The approach here prioritizes therapeutic mobility and nervous system regulation over athletic output. If you have avoided yoga because of a physical limitation, this studio was built with you in mind.What can I expect in an Ecstatic Tantric Movement class?
Ecstatic Tantric Movement is an intuitive, womb-led movement practice with no choreography and no mirrors. You will not be told specific steps to follow or poses to hold. Instead, the class invites you to move in ways that feel natural and authentic to your body, drawing on sensual embodiment and soulful expression to release stored tension. It is designed for emotional release and softening, not performance. No dance experience is needed, and the space is intentionally free of judgment, so participants can move however feels right without any pressure to look a certain way.What membership and class pass options are available?
There are several options to fit different needs and budgets. A Single Class Pass is $24, a 5-Class Pass is $110, and a 10-Class Pass is $220. An Unlimited Monthly membership is $110 per month. For those interested in the creative side of the studio, Art Studio Memberships are available in 3-month and 12-month increments at either a Standard or Lifestyle tier. The Lifestyle membership includes 8 yoga and meditation classes per month alongside full art studio access, covering pottery wheels, kiln firings, stained glass equipment, and work tables. It is a hybrid offering that bridges movement and creativity.Can I book the studio space for a workshop, group session, or private meeting?
Yes, space bookings are available for community groups, practitioners, coaches, and event organizers. The Yoga Room and Gallery can be booked for workshops, launches, and celebrations. A sound-dampened Therapy Room is available for counseling, coaching, or private meetings, and the Art Workshop space is available for creative sessions. Pricing varies depending on whether you carry your own insurance. If you do, rates are lower: $50 per hour for the Yoga Room or Gallery, $25 per hour or $75 per day for the Therapy Room, and $30 per hour for the Art Workshop. Please use the term booking rather than rental when inquiring, as this reflects the studio's specific policies.Does the studio offer sound baths, and how do I find out about upcoming ones?
Sound baths are not offered as in-house classes by the studio's own instructors. They are provided by visiting community artists and groups who book the space. To find upcoming sound bath events, check the studio schedule, which is managed through Momoyoga and always reflects the most current class and event listings. If you are an artist or group leader interested in hosting a sound bath at the studio, there is a specific inquiry process for that as well.What is the studio's policy on photos and how it represents its community?
Love Yourself. Studio uses only real, unaltered photographs of the actual space and its community. No stock photos, no AI-generated imagery, and no digitally altered faces or bodies appear in any studio communications or marketing. This is a foundational value rooted in the founder's direct experience with an agency that used AI to alter her appearance without consent. Every image representing this studio reflects the real people and the real space, because that is what the brand stands for.
