Boundless Yoga Coming to 13th and U Streets, NW This Summer

By Prince Of Petworth

There was some discussion last week about the construction going on at 13th and U Streets, NW. I have confirmed one rumor with Kim Weeks the founder of Boundless Yoga. She writes:

“We plan to move in during the summer, and we’re expanding from our spot on the 1500 block of U Street to 2500 SF there at 13th/U, with two bright, sunny studios plus a space for Yoga Therapy and private yoga. We’ll be offering public yoga, private yoga, yoga training, Yoga Therapy, and energy healing!”

Now we just have to wait to see who takes over the first floor.

Dear PoP – Yoga Reviews

By Prince Of Petworth

“Dear PoP,

I have noticed that you’ve got a couple of yoga studio sponsors and wondered if reader reviews of local yoga studios might be a good topic for discussion. I am a beginner who has never taken a class but I’d like to get into some yoga and pilates. I don’t know my ashtanga from my bikram. Honestly I am a working mom who likes to get out of town on weekends so it’s been really hard to find the time.

Also, I once found online a yoga studio that was offering a parent-toddler yoga class that sounded like fun but I now can’t remember/find the listing. If it rings any bells let me know!”

I’ll open up this up to you guys. I know yoga studios have exploded all over the city so there has to be one with a parent-toddler class. Anyone know? What’s your favorite in the city?

From an email:

“Mid City Yoga, my guerrilla yoga company, is hosting a fun, summer outdoor yoga class every sunny (read: not rainy) Tuesday evening at 7pm in Thomas Circle. The 75 minute class will be an open-level flow, aimed at challenging experienced yogis and giving some experience to novices, all while enjoying the gorgeousness that is a DC Summer. I’ll be teaching, so come ready for a little bit of fun, a little bit of sweat, and some darn good company. The whole thing is pay what you can, so don’t stress– come play.

Thomas Circle is located on 14th Street NW, right at M Street and Mass Ave. The big horse statue is hard to miss. I’ll be the tall blonde guy with a yoga mat. 7pm.”
