Rhode Island is home to some amazing yoga and wellness studios. Having been a student of yoga for over 20 years and a teacher since 2012, here are some of the places I take myself when I need some self care.
East Bay:
Synergy Yoga & Wellness has been my home studio ever since owner Alyssa Sullivan set up her shingle. Originally a Baptiste inspired heated vinyasa studio, it has recently evolved into offering other styles, such as Yin Yoga and Yoga for Strength, into their regular class schedule. Synergy also hosts a variety of workshops and guest master teachers events. If you’re on the East Bay, chances are you’ll find me here on my mat.
