"Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts." Arnold Bennett
Stay with us! We are undergoing some changes and working out schedules for the summer at both locations. Please call Yardley at 215 321 7787 or Hillsborough at 908 431 7787 to verify our schedule and check this website often. You may also email Casey at info@studiozen.org or call her on the cell - 609 647 6762.
We appreciate you and apologize if you have experienced any inconvenience or confusion recently. It is not our intention to have our change effect our students.
"Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful" Joshua J. Marine
What makes us different than the gym or other yoga studios? We offer a variety of classes meant to bring about greater balance and well being in an atmosphere that is clean and relaxed, yet energizing and our teachers cater every class to the skill and well-being of their students. Whether you are a first-timer or in need of a challenge, yes, our teachers are that good. Here is what a couple of our students, unsolicited, have to say about us . . .
"As a caregiver to a loved one, I knew that I needed to eke out some
time to foster my own health and nourish my soul while I provided the
care my mother needed in the final months of her life. I had read about
yoga often and had done it when my now-grown-children were kids. I
attended a class when I could and found it so beneficial that I soaked
up what it had to offer like a sponge. I could move my body in ways
that I hadn’t for years; to my surprise I could touch my toes! I had
some energy and found strength to do what was needed of me. Since my
mother’s death, I am able to attend the
"I'm so pleased you suggested I go to the teaching today with
"I jokingly refer to some of Studio Zen’s instructors as “so and so’s spa.” It is not unusual to find a blanket and eye pillow placed lovingly beside each mat before classes. Many of the instructors will rub shoulders and heads at the close of a class and all of the teachers make it a habit to personalize each class, know each student, and, of course, utter a caveat about doing only as much as “your body can do’. Juxtapose that kind of special treatment with this scenario: I visited my daughter in Northern New Jersey and signed up for yoga. At the start of the Level I class, the instructor announced that she was “here to tell us what to do.” Her put-downs of those who failed to achieve the postures was only secondary to her heavy-handedness in positioning those people as they groaned under her pressure. Her three dogs roamed the mats without any explanation or apology to allergy sufferers. At the end of the class, we received an impersonal goodbye. The “locals” seemed to love it. When you have never had an instructor treat you as I have at Studio Zen, then you don’t know what you’re missing!" "I just wanted to tell you what a wonderful time we had at couples yoga. We twisted our bodies into positions we never thought we could! The atmosphere was wonderful and all of the other couples were great too. My husband was not eager to go to this class however, I asked him today if he would go again and he was happy to say YES he would. It was a challenge for both of us (we are beginners) but one that we were eager to conquer together. It was really a beautiful and fun way to spend the evening together. We hope you offer this class again...all of our friends will be encouraged to attend. Thank you again!!!" ".... to spend time with Acharyaji and his wife, Prerna, is truly an experience of sweet acceptance and love. They both walk the walk. Anyone who has come into contact with Girish can feel the genuine bhava that he exudes and the humble and gentle hand with which he guides you as a teacher."
"I have been to many yoga classes and had many yoga teachers. What Casey brings to every class is a clear and enjoyable way to ignite the practice within and without the body. She teaches in a way no other does in that you understand what you are to do and feel in the posture with never any pressure to perform better or differently than you are, in the moment."
"I never knew yoga could be this good!"
