Editor’s note: This is the second entry in a series exploring Hawaii’s yoga studios. Read the first one here.
“The deeper you get into Yoga you realize it is a spiritual practice. It’s a journey I’m making. I’m heading that way.” – Sting
This is a sentiment the good folks behind Yoga Hanalei can get behind. The Kauai studio’s instructors create the kind of welcoming environment that draws you in, allowing you to focus, to center, to breathe.
The space itself exudes tranquility. Yoga Hanalei is centered on an open concept that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also versatile. Yoga rope wall? Check. Banners of angled sunshine? Check. Mirrored wall? Check.
Whether you’re a newbie or a veteran practitioner, you’re bound to feel comfortable. After all, you’re in good hands with Yoga Hanalei founder and director Bhavani Silvia Maki, whose extensive training is rare indeed. (She’s made six trips to study in South India, and has even written a book titled The Yogi’s Road Map.)
With more than 30 classes offered every week catering to all levels of experience and a range of different styles, Yoga Hanalei provides a great atmosphere to go as far as Sting suggests you should in your spiritual journey.
