What Restorative Yoga actually is

Restorative uses bolsters, blankets and blocks to hold the body in fully supported positions for five to twenty minutes so that no muscular effort is required. It is a recovery and nervous system class rather than a fitness class.

  • Fully supported by props
  • No muscular effort required
  • Recovery and downregulation focus

How much does Restorative Yoga cost?

Typical is the median, not the average, so one high priced studio cannot drag a city upward. A city appears once at least two of its studios have published a price, and the cities with the most priced studios come first. A drop in is each studio's standard group class price, so where a studio teaches several styles it may not be the Restorative Yoga price.

Restorative Yoga questions

What do you actually do for an hour?

Five or six shapes, that is all. Each is set up with bolsters, blankets and blocks taking your weight, then held for five to ten minutes while you do nothing at all.

Is it worth paying for something that looks like lying down?

Our honest answer is that the setup is the class. Getting the props right so a shape holds itself is not something most people do at home, and almost nobody lies still for an hour without a room full of other people doing it too. If you would genuinely do it alone, save the money.

Should I bring my own bolster?

No. A class built around props supplies them, and studios that teach restorative usually have more of them than anywhere else in the building.

Where can I take Restorative Yoga classes?

110 studios in 90 cities list Restorative Yoga. The most are in New York, NY (9), Santa Cruz, CA (3) and Bakersfield, CA (2). Each city page lists every studio teaching it there.

What do studios listed here actually charge?

The median drop in price across the 21 studios here that publish one is $25, and the middle half charge $20 to $25. That is each studio's standard group drop in, so at a studio teaching several styles it may not be what a Restorative Yoga class costs there.

Why compare Restorative Yoga here

  • Prices carry a date

    A studio price shows the date it was last checked wherever we hold one. Stale is stated, never hidden.

  • Verification is four states

    Listed, claimed, verified and enhanced. We never blur them into one green tick.

  • Equipment aware

    Class size is capped by machine count, which is why the apparatus in the room is listed, not just the class name.

    Order is verification, freshness and rating. No studio can buy its way up this list.
