At Om Yoga Studio

I cannot say enough good things about what this place did for me.
I am by no means a yogi, or an athletic person for that matter. I’ve always been very intimidated by group classes. I worry about not keeping up or looking a mess.
What Asa and his awesome staff have created here is a space free of all this.
It should also be mentioned right away that the space is BEAUTIFUL! Its on the top floor of Phenix Hall, right where the old stage was.
I came here because winter sucked, I was losing my marbles and also needed to lower my blood pressure. I started with their Beginner Basics series which is five classes over five weeks for $ 50. It introduces you to not just doing yoga and meditating as a group but also walks through poses carefully and thoughtfully with great cues to get you more connected with your body.
Asa led that series and definitely had me committed to yoga as a practice by the second class.
I started attending weekly basic flow classes with Tracy (who unfortunately just left.) That woman was the best. I got so much stronger over the few months I attended and got my blood pressure down to very good numbers. This was my therapy.
It is an investment, but if you’re living in Concord, you can likely afford it. I always borrowed a mat (they have some clean, quality communal ones) I paid $ 110 for a 10-​class pass and that did me well for a while. I had been paying $ 27/​month for the Y and $ 10/​month for planet fitness and not getting anything out of that investment. My brief time at At Om absolutely changed my life. I’m very grateful for the unity I experienced with my classmates and instructors and the love I always left with. It was awesome.
They also offer periodic events with live music, which seem really cool, but I never had the opportunity to attend. There’s also workshops that help you work on particular aspects of your practice, like inversions or sanskrit. And some classes for folks with kids and special needs.
Another thing I never made it to was their Sunday practice, where they filled the auditorium with people and even have a place for kids.
