Description

Specialties

Amayasana Yoga offers small class sizes, emphasizing proper alignment through differentiated asana sequences, designed to increase strength and flexibility. Edwin recognizes that every person has their own physique, therefore, no ‘beginning’ nor ‘advanced’ classes are offered. Instruction is tailored to benefit each student as they develop their physical potential. A wide range of ability is welcome and encouraged.

Amayasa yoga studio is an excellent place to come to work out your mind, body, and soul!
The space is a historic original brownstone with all original details! They are gorgeous!
The class filled up pretty quickly on the Saturday I went so make sure to pay and reserve in advance! Cost only $ 15 for an amazing yoga /​Pilates experience.
I felt challenged and at peace in the class setting.
Edwin was very friendly and welcoming as well as knowledgable about yoga and all variations!
The class that ran today was actually 90 minutes! FYI!
Overall I will be back again, and again, and again!

I had a GREAT class with Edwin Saturday morning! It’s not easy to find a yoga teacher who goes beyond the basics of a yoga class… Edwin definitely does, with patience, attention, and care. I learned how to improve my form in many of the asanas I do on a regular basis with his kind guidance, and learn a few new asanas as well. He is a true treasure to have in Bedstuy. I look forward to more classes with him!

This is wonderful! I have attended one class on a Saturday morning. There were four students, three of us had never had a class here and one woman had come before. The classes are taught in a brownstone, so it is a beautiful, intimate space but with the policy of asking students to RSVP, you will be able to know if there is room available for you. Edwin was a very warm, down to earth and patient teacher. I will definitely be back!

I’ve been meaning to write a review for awhile but always get sidetracked. Edwin’s class is amazing. I LOVE the small class size. It fosters personalized attention and that’s a good thing in yoga. You will love the experience.

As yoga goes, it’s a great way to exercise, strengthen your core and a great stretch without being overwhelmed. I have taken yoga before and had several other yoga instructors, and Edwin is a great instructor. I am a believer of the practice and once I thought was more for women, Edwin proved me wrong. The practice keeps me grounded and with Edwin’s teachings keeps me fit. Try it as I did, I’m sure you will agree.

I love my classes with Edwin. I took a group class with him when i was 38 weeks pregnant, and after i delivered my child, i came back for post natal private classes because i enjoyed my group class. I can say that as a mom who is at home with her child during yoga with no care, Edwin is amazing. He tailored the class to my needs, watches my baby when needed and he gets antsy.
Recovering from split abs after i delivered. He did a lot of research into the condition to make sure he gave the right exercises. I has been very kind with his flexibility and is totally reasonable with his rates and affordable. i wish i had found him earlier during pregnancy and done my twice a week privates with him during. Thank u Edwin!

I came to this class after years of being away from Yoga. Edwin was so attentive, gentile and aware of me and the others in the class. In two words: tuned in.
The next day I felt amazing. I was stretching all day long. The spirit of yoga is back with me. Thanks Edwin. 5 stars.

Edwin is a lovely guy. He is adaptable to your personal situation (mine was post pregnancy issues, with a child, cat and dog on the scene), and always maintains a positive demeanor. He is very perceptive and understands the human body, as well as the nuances of each movement. I thoroughly enjoy every session with Edwin, and would recommend him to anyone!

I happened to have a free morning in Brooklyn recently, and found Amayasana Yoga was nearby. I emailed Edwin to be sure he was offering the class listed on the website the next day. He responded immediately, saying that there was room in the class, and also asking about my yoga practice. Next morning, at his fabulous class, he offered suggestions for improving some of the poses I had mentioned I found difficult. I love my own yoga instructor, but any time I find myself in Brooklyn with an hour for yoga, I’ll definitely go back. Edwin is warm and helpful in class, and quick to respond to emails. I left his class feeling invigorated in my practice, and have been able to use his suggestions to expand what I am able to do. Thanks, Edwin!

Edwin is Definitely the best yoga instructor. Before him I hated yoga. Couple of times I went on yoga classes in manhattan and it was very disappointing. Classes were huge and on top of that everyone seemed to be so good in yoga while I was totally lost and instructors didn’t care. Then I discovered Edwin! His classes are not huge and he gets time to focus on each person. He has so much patience with me. He is helping me a lot with my back problems and restless leg syndrome. You can see how much he loves being instructor. I would definitely recommend Edwin. Because of him you will love waking up early for yoga! Sign up now, you will not regret:)

Edwin is a great teacher! He’s really good at catering to all levels even within one class. He’ll work with you wherever your at not only in your yoga journey but where you are that day. The brownstone space is really nice and relaxing. Plus, since it’s right in my neighborhood it’s great being able to do yoga before work and not have to drag a mat and extra clothes with me to work. :)

Edwin is the real deal. He knows his stuff. He carefully observes me to make sure I am doing poses correctly and patiently helps me until I’ve got it. A runner myself, I love that he also has a similar background and knows what poses will help with IT band or SI joint injuries. I feel lucky to have him in my neighborhood!

I’ve taken classes with Edwin at Martial Arts USA. He is so kind and considerate in his practice; you immediately feel calm and ready to try poses you doubted you could do. He is great at knowing when to offer an adjustment or suggestion. I will be back!

Edwin is just excellent. He is gentle but masterful in his touch, encouraging but never overwhelming. He manages to reach a perfect balance between challenging us and building our confidence to try new things. Everyday is better when it starts with a class from Edwin.

I have attended Edwin’s Yoga class several times and each time he arrives prepared with new and challenging positions — subtly encouraging the class to move forward and ultimately improving ones mind, body, spirit, strength and balance. Occasionally customizing positions for some classmates who have specific physical limitations or previous injuries. He does this all with a gentle sensitivity and a very keen eye which comes from years of experience. He is always prompt, reliable and kind in manner and I would highly recommend his class to veteran Yogis as well as beginers — especially since he pays close attention to the level of experience of each classmate.

I’ve taken a few classes with Edwin both privately and at his studio. He’s one of my favorite instructors. He’s not one to get flighty and philosophize about the sun and the moon. The ohming is limited! He’s more technical and interested in giving a good workout and gently coaxing your body into right position. This is an approach that really appeals to me. His fingers work magic when making adjustments.
Because his classes include all levels not everyone is on the same page. That can be frustrating, but also in true yoga style you make of your workout what you want!
Highly recommended!
