Affordable Yoga in Charleston, SC

There are LOTS of great affordable yoga classes offered in Charleston.

Your first class is FREE at Charleston Power Yoga (for students with a local Charleston ID). Charleston Power Yoga also offers a FREE Class every Friday 4:15-5:15. It is called the Community Class on the schedule. Be sure to get there EARLY (especially during the school year!) because the studio gets back and they only let 35 students in.

Jivamukti Yoga Charleston offers HIGH $5 Classes (Classes for $5). There are currently 11 HIGH $5 classes on the schedule each week (all levels and a variety of times). Be sure to check the schedule out!

Join the mailing list for Holy Cow because they often offer a FREE class on holidays. A FREE class is coming up on Easter Sunday! They offer a donation community class Tuesday and Thursday at 4pm. Also for the months of April, May and June (2011) the EXTRA GENTLE and Cancer Survivor Yoga Class on Saturdays at 2pm is FREE.

And, check the schedule at Charleston Community Yoga a new studio just opened up in West Ashley. All classes are donations!! So give what you can.

Often times gyms have a lower drop in rate for a yoga class than a yoga studio. So be sure to check your local gym for yoga classes that fit into your schedule.

And then if you cannot make it to a class, but want the guidance of a teacher there are lots of FREE podcasts available to download. I prefer to practice with Jessica Stickler a New York City based Jivamukti Yoga teacher. She offers FREE podcasts on her website, or find her podcasts or other teachers FREE podcasts on iTunes.

Another option is to check out Yoga Journal’s website. They have a feature where you can put together poses that you want to do to create your own class. They also have lots of great articles, recipes and description of poses online.
