Grinning yogi is not just my favorite yoga studio, it is one of my favorite places in Seattle period! Every single teacher is awesome in their own ways, but if I had to recommend a few to start with: take a class with Summer (she is sunshine in a person), Mikey Walton, Ashish Arora (be ready to sweat!!), and chill flow or yin unwind with Bianca Calagiu on Sunday nights for the most calming way to begin your week. Besides strengthening my yoga practice, the studio has expanded my community in SEA and given me some amazing friends ❤️

I took a class here with Summer and had an amazing time! The flow was creative, dance-y, joyful, and challenging. Fellow student vibe was open and friendly. Love coming here!

This studio and the instructors are so welcoming, which is especially important for someone like me who rarely practices. I love their Chill classes — I always feel reset afterwards! Truly a gem of 15th, check it out!

Love Grinning so much, I've been to classes here and also at their studio in Greenwood. Community vibes and really great teachers, especially Ashish (his classes on the weekend fill up) and Arzu. Parking tip: there's a lot up a block away on 15th

We got the opportunity to take part in a free community yoga in the area while visiting. Molly was our teacher and she was Excellent. Twice a month- I do believe- the studio offered free community yoga class w a student teacher. And it was the perfect end to our trip. Thank you Molly
