For yogis, by yogis.

We’ve created our ideal space to flow, chill, and sweat.

We spent HELLA TIME thinking about heat.
After many MANY hours of research we landed on using Infrared heating panels, made in the USA! What's the difference between Infrared and traditional heat? Infrared heats you from the inside out. It acts just like the sun! So instead of walking into a wall of sticky heat, you walk into a comfortable room. Once you start moving, you build heat from the inside out which is a much safer and healthier way to sweat.
We want you to know that we have done extensive research on this system and it is 100% safe and natural for your body, and your well-being! The human body is designed to accept and emit infrared which makes the feeling of warmth from infrared, particularly comfortable. It is UV that is harmful, not infrared, so there's no need to worry. We got choo.
Check out the many benefits of practicing in Infrared:
Detoxification through perspiration
Boosts immune system
Increases the circulation of blood flow
Weight loss and increased metabolism
Reduces stress and fatigue
Improves joint health
Reduces appearance of cellulite (Can I getta “hell yes!”)
Improves acne prone skin
Improve heart health
Let. Dat. Fresh. Air. In.
We love a HOT class just as much as the next sweat junkie, but on those hot and humid KY days, we want to allow mother nature to be our heater! We also know that a STILL class is not going to be comfortable under too much heat. SO we made sure to install a row of insulated windows that WE CAN OPEN and Let. Dat. Fresh. Air. In! As we head into the colder seasons, the windows may not be open as much DURING class but we will open them to defunkify the room of all the areoles in between each sweat! Additionally, we added an exhaust system so during AND after class we will cycle in fresh air and pull out funk. Wait, you might be asking. Aren’t you losing all that hot air that has been filling the room? See above. Infrared heats your body, not the room. We choose fresh over stank! You should too!
Our home is your home.
We are pretty stoked for you to enjoy our locker rooms! Beautiful tiled showers in both men’s and women’s rooms with attached changing areas, complementary shower towels, soaps and all the things that help you feel your best after class! And for our ladies, we’ve built a custom drybar, with all the fixins!
Although we recommend you bring your own mat, we do have complementary mats and hand towels. If you are in need of a yogi toes, we have those for you to rent at our front desk.
We LOVE music.
And sometimes we love loud music. So come ready to jam or get lulled into relaxation with a custom playlist for each and every class. Heads up: In Slay, the instructors are mic-ed up so yeah, it bumps. Let’s rock out!

Take it from them…

"I love it here. The heat is perfect, and the space never has the funk that I normally associate with hot yoga studios. It is an inclusive space where each instructor I have had has encouraged participants to honor their own level. The vibe is chill without disorganization."

"Just tried my first class YogaSt8 this week my mom. We went to the Still class and it was incredible! The staff was lovely and kind. They answered all my questions and we even got some wine to sip during class. The class itself was extremely calming and watching the sunset through the big windows made it even more relaxing. Our instructor gave us words of encouragement and even helped my mom make an adjustment when a stretch didn't work for her. We will definitely be going back for more classes."

"Coolest yoga studio in town. They have something for every preference, skill, or experience level. Even if you mess up and find yourself in one of their harder classes, there’s no judgement if you rest in child’s pose or just stand in the back trying hydrate."

"I am so grateful to have found this amazing studio! Abica has created such an incredible space. All the instructors, the front desk team, and other yogis are incredibly nice, welcoming, and warm. When I first attended a class, it had been years since I had done yoga in a studio. The instructors were very helpful and made me feel right at home. The atmosphere is truly special. And the attention to detail is definitely not lacking! By far one of my favorite places, in general, in Louisville. If you were curious and thinking about going, do it. You won't regret it."

"This place has just opened and they are a breath of fresh air in the local yoga scene. inspiring, knowledgeable teachers, amazing physical space, well thought-out variety of classes, and great musical choices that are both enjoyable on their own and fit the practice. hard to believe they haven't been open for years because they definitely know what they're doing here."

"Would love to give them 100 stars! This studio and community is so special. I have been going here consistently for a year and a half and it has changed my life. All of the instructors are phenomenal, you cannot go wrong with any of the teachers or the classes. They truly do welcome every - body. The studio amenities will spoil you - showers, dry bar, lavender towels... The only warning I will give is that you will be addicted to yoga and this space! ;)"
