Yoga Dragon | 290

I’m glad that I’ve found Yoga Dragon. I’ve been practicing yoga for years prior moving to the states and happily surprised by Steve’s practice! I was never a gentle yoga person but love his gentle yoga class very much! Attending his gentle yoga makes me feel like I’ve experienced a meditation and a massage. I also love Wenjie’s hot power. Her yoga class offers dynamic flow with well-structured transitions between poses, I feel natural and energizing after her class. Looking forward to try other instructors’ classes too!

Hear me out…in December 2024 I would have given this studio 5 stars, but after my encounter with the owner (the husband) today it is a -0. Yes, I said a -0! Last month myself and 2 of my out of town guests decided to drop into a class. I live nearby so I chose Yoga Dragon. I also invited another group of friends in my area, but they were busy. My friends that couldn’t make it told me go check it out, and we will all purchase our annual memberships together. The other owner(the wife) did an excellent job. I enjoyed the yoga practice! Whenever I practice anywhere I bring my own yoga mat (dark brown/goldish manduka yoga mat). Well, I notice that I left my mat at the yoga dragon studio on 290 (the last place that I practiced at), but haven’t had time to go by or call until recently, and when I did go by they were closed, however they have a paper in the window with other location info, hours and a telephone number. So today while working, I call the yoga dragon number (my phone is on speaker because I’m working and my adult daughter is near me doing her own thing). The husband answers and I ask “is this dragon yoga” the husband says no this is yoga dragon and your calling my personal phone…they must have transferred the calls to me (in his you are bothering me voice). I then proceed to share the location and time frame of my visit, and ask about my yoga mat. He then tells me we don’t have your mat…I share details of exactly what the mat looked like, and by this time he sounds EXTRA bothered and tells me “I am looking but I don’t see your mat”. I say ok, sorry to bother you but before I could even finish my sentence he hangs up. My daughter looks up and says “that was not very Zen!” I take a couple of breaths and I call him back to tell him how he sounded bothered and I am a customer calling his business only to hang up feeling horrible about even calling, and that “bothered” me. and he (the owner of yoga dragon) proceeded to tell me “Well you are making assumptions! I was just waking up! I have been up since 4:30am so you don’t even know what was going on!”. Sir, I thought you were at the studio looking around for my yoga mat?? Hmmm I told him I won’t bother him ever again and won’t be back to the 290 location or any of their locations either! This is horrible customer service! Needless to say, my friends and I will be on the hunt for a yoga studio in our area. As you all can see from the owner’s response below, this is your warning! Not only will the customer service be horrible but the accountability will be as well! Very sad! And oh Steve, I neveerrrr said that I came on a Saturday. The woman that taught the class said “my husband is leaving to go teach at another location”, and that was you Steve. SMH, so no assumptions there! My bothersome happened when I spoke with you yesterday. I’ve read your other reviews and sir you are the problem, as everyone can now see. You’re welcome everyone…please protect your energy and peace. He’s a mad man. The sassy man apocalypse is definitely upon us lol. Enjoy your new manduka yoga mat, you definitely need more yoga practice on it than I do. May peace be with you!

I’ve been coming for almost a year now and I feel so much better and stronger, hot yoga is my favorite class 🧘🏼‍♀️

Owning one studio and doing a good job of managing it is hard enough. There are 3 studios all of which are phenomenal. Great variety of classes to choose from and awesome instructors. They make it feel like home when you are there. I highly recommend giving it a try if you haven’t already. Good for your soul and your body.

Absolutely AMAZING practice! Every instructor is true and unique to themself. Their passion shines through, encouraging self improvement and development. Yoga Dragon is more than a place of yoga. It is a place of healing, transformation, and empowerment! Every level of yogi and fitness welcomed. Growth and a healthier lifestyle are the outcome. Thank you Steve for creating and sharing Yoga Dragon. 🙌🏽 Thank you all. @Barker and 290 Locations
