“I never imagined that I could get so much out of 200 hours. It brought light to my life, and deepened my practice in a beautiful way. I left each day of training feeling like I was on a path to something amazing.”
— Cayla B.
“Through intense immersion, the spirit of yoga grew in everyone of us. I never could have expected the transformational process that would ensue. If you want your practice to take on meaning, I’d do your teacher training at Jai. ”
— Claire T.
“I had only been to Jai Yoga Arts once before entering the Teacher Training there. . . and I believe that says a lot! From the moment I walked into my first class, I could see that Jai was the personal and intimate setting I had been looking for in a yoga studio. By the time the class was over, I knew that I could feel at home there. The teacher training exceeded my expectations and gave me a far broader knowledge base than I could have hoped for. Ella provided a nurturing atmosphere while pushing me to expand beyond what I felt were my limitations. She encouraged all the trainees to go out in the world and apply that same experience with others. I’ve completed my training with several new friends, a deeper relation to my practice, and feeling primed for the next phase of my journey! Jai!”
— Erika B.
“So often we search the outside world for meaning and purpose, but through my yoga training with Ella I was able to find purpose within myself. The yoga training program with Jai was an amazing experience that taught me how to share my love and passion for yoga with each student I teach. I would recommend the Jai Yoga Arts Teacher Training program to anyone who seeks to share their love for yoga with the world.”
— Paul M.
“Wow, this Yoga Teacher Training at Jai Yoga Arts was absolutely amazing and life-changing. Before the training, I felt like my life had reached this ceiling, I was stagnant. I went into it thinking that I was just going to learn the technical elements of being a yoga instructor, but I have gained such a better understanding of myself through and through. Now ten weeks later, I feel so alive, so enlightened—I feel that I now have my wings to fly, that I have my voice to express myself truthfully. I could not thank Ella and the Jai community enough for the space they created.”
— Lauren C.
“Feeling a little lost in the New York lifestyle… Jai’s teacher training with Ella Luckett is perfect for anyone looking find a strong united connection with oneself and the universe. Ella covers all aspects of a full yoga practice and really brings you back in touch with your true spirit in the process. These 200 hours left me feeling strong and confident in teaching a full yoga class as well as leading my own home practice. It has opened me up to share my love and creativity, I can’t even imagine not going through with this program! This will bring you light and clarity in your life you’ll be ready to share. ”
— Frances G.
“Jai Yoga has brought so much fun and compassion into my heart. Ella is this awesome, elegant lady, and the atmosphere at Jai is really open and loving. And because the program is so small and intimate, I’ve made some really great friends. I left every class feeling absolutely blissed out. I miss it so much already! I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything.”
— Christina M.
“It’s difficult to explain into words how wonderful my experience was during my teacher training with Ella. I first met Ella a year and a half ago and immediately felt a warm welcoming from her, the teachers and Jai! She and the studio exude compassion for their students! If it were not for jai, I would not have felt confident to go through a teacher training. Ella exceeded my expectations as a teacher- she became my mentor!”
— Ally P
“Going through the yoga teacher training course was a life changer in every aspect. Yoga is everywhere in my life. For me, the practice extends way further than the mat. It has given me a map for living. I have gained a whole new level of self awareness and am better to all those around me, including myself, because of it. Making the decision to sign up for teacher training felt intimidating, ( is my practice good enough, am I ready), but Ella’s gentle, warm energy made that decision a no brainer! Today I can share my gratitude with an open and full heart for the path I walked down! Ella is truly a remarkable teacher! I am forever grateful.”

Jai Yoga is wonderful. I am so happy I found this yoga studio and I am very excited to continue my practice here. All of the instructors so far have been happy, friendly, humble, and knowledgable about their classes. The space is beautiful, relaxing, and overall a great place to practice. I love the intimate classes, the complimentary tea and water. The classes are challenging and unique. This studio really has accomplished the goals and desires of any practicing yogi! Thank you Jai Yoga!
Nicole Hudson
Jai feels like home! I spent a long time looking for the right studio and, for me, Jai was the perfect blend of amazing teachers and community outreach. I am currently finishing my 200hr YTT at Jai and couldn't have asked for a better training, it has truly been a life changer. Jai!
Nicholas Salmons
My favorite studio in Brooklyn by far! Love coming here to escape the craziness of a busy day. The classes are great and the teachers and students form a great community. I look forward to the days I can get to class =)
Erin Fairbanks
Been chasing a yoga practice my whole adult life, found Jai Yoga Arts, and now it just flows--can't say enough about how much this space has improved my life.
Jenny Elena
wish I could have put Jai Yoga Arts in my backpack and take it home with me to Germany. Great teachers, wonderful athmosphere! It made me feel welcome during busy travelling-times! Thank you so much for that!
Ella
I felt comfortable here and was able to ask the instructor and another staff member about an issue regarding an injury and was given supportive and helpful feedback as well as suggestions for modifications during class. I like that the studio is smaller as I personally do not feel relaxed in larger class environments. So happy to have found it. Thank you.
Katie Donelly Rosenthal
Loved the focus on courage (word of the month) and how it tied into various aspects of the class. Good point of reflection. I appreciated the adjustments made to help ensure proper form The comfortability of it all, the studio, the interaction with students/teachers, was just great.
Tejelly R Patel
Small class sizes, clean facilities. I also love the tea time at the end - it makes the experience way more personal and really allows you to get to know other students and the instructors. I've never experienced that before at a yoga studio and I love it!
Kristen Gajdica
My brother has been insisting I join him for a class with you guys for months. I finally came on Monday and it was wonderful. I plan to come back semi regularly. Thank you for providing such a lovely space.
Kristen Gajdica
I appreciate the community that Ella and her team have built! I've lived in the neighborhood for 3 years now, and I absolutely love coming to Jai Yoga. It's an all-inclusive place and I never feel discouraged to participate no matter how my level of yoga compares to my peer. I would recommend to anyone! The only downside is that individual classes are on the more expensive end.
Dina Liss
Down to earth atmosphere. The right amount of spirituality in the teaching. It's there if you want it. But it's not pushy if you're only interested in harmony for your body.
Yves Cedano
Very welcoming and friendly community! Also, great yoga classes which feel judgement free and allow you to practice at your own level and offer a balanced practice.
Yves Cedano
I would recommend you to my friends, but your studio is not for me. I feel that its a very relaxing experience, but I like more intense yoga classes. I like to push my limits with the flexibility and also do things to get my heart rate up. I go to Yoga to the People even though you are closer to my apartment.
Shannon Lawrence
Already have. Great teacher, very considerate of injuries and lovely to talk to. I liked the focus on getting positioning right and how Nicole made sure that everyone was doing the poses correctly rather than quickly
Guenevere Rodriguez
The studio was warm, welcoming, and clean. Lillian hosted the space and led class in a way that made me feel so supported and taken care of, and gave clear and thoughtful instruction but also allowed me to give myself what I needed for the class. The invitation to stay for tea after before going back out into the cold was also so generous. Lovely place and lovely teacher, I'll be back! Thank you!
Jenny Barone
Awesome asana class with Ella and amazing meditation after. Welcoming community - laid back and open - unlike some of the other studios I've visited in NY. Thank you!

Rachael Yaeger
I like how welcoming and encouraging all of the instructors are. I look forward to yoga classes as a way to relax and rejuvenate after a long day at work and am never disappointed.
Kens Germain
It's very convenient for me to get to from my house. I like the small class size and the teachers offer a good variety and support. They all seem very knowledgable.
Omayra del Valle
The atmosphere of the studio is very welcoming and relaxing. It is such a pleasure to work through my practice there and enjoy a cup of tea and talk with the teachers and fellow members after a class. Thatchers are all very approachable and friendly. Every class I have attended, with every teacher has been a joy and each teacher brings something new to the table.
Katie
the vibe was right on for what i like in terms of music, size, cleanliness, and difficulty. i'm not trying to become america's next big core-strength success story over here, ya dig? the people were nice and it was a session that challenged without overwhelming. the only reason it isn't a 10/10 is because i think $15 is a little steep for a single yoga class. $10 and i'd probably come back relatively regularly.
Sarah
The instructor was calm and clear, and the class was well paced. There was plenty of opportunity to take a more advanced pose when one so chooses. I enjoyed the meditation after class as well.
Jackie
I love the ambiance and the neighborhood feel. The instructors are really nice and they explain the details of the poses really well so I feel like I'm doing it correctly, not just going through the motions. I really like the emphasis on mindfulness and well being too :)
Ulrika Erelöf
Everyone at the studio is really friendly and skilled and I really felt welcomed in the practice but also beyond that. Also the style of yoga pleases me a lot and it initiates a very positive change and opens new perspectives on your body and mind.

Belle Jansen
Ella was an amazing teacher - she challenged me in new poses while also being completely relatable. I felt as ease the entire time, even in a new place, and could tell it was a fully welcoming and nonjudgmental environment from the get-go. The space itself is beautiful also!
Frank Hoefsmit
I love the friendly and peaceful atmosphere. I was able to open up without feeling nervous or like I was being judged. I will be going back for more classes!
Frank Hoefsmit
Good space. Mulitple good teachers. Location. Variety of times you can take class in a day. I like that there is usually a theme every month and that most teachers are pretty good at conveying the theme and giving the students something intelligent and interesting to reflect on.
Ian Cremona
The studio is the perfect size, is kept clean. The classes are a good length. I especially love Ella, Leah S, Miriam, Erin Ward, Erin Brownell, Gayle and Nicole's classes. I like when teachers give adjustments, which they almost always do, especially if a class is on the smaller side. I like that almost every class has music, which helps me to focus. I love the monthly themes and appreciate when teachers work the themes into classes. After a class at Jai I feel like I've done something good for my body and my mind, my mood improves, and I am inspired to keep coming to class to maintain that energy throughout the week. I feel totally at home at Jai!
Caroline
The instructor was amazing. It was my second yoga class I have taken. I have to start taking classes as requested by my physical therapist. Felt great after the class! I would say it was success!

Vaiva
Wonderful teachers (!) to really learn and deepen your practice. All of them bring something different. Nice intimate home feeling studio with a little tea living room, warm people, slow rhythm and its always open for discussion. Thank you Jai Yoga!
Nicole Hudson
The Easy Flow class on Thursday May 28th at 7:20pm was awesome. Nicole is a really great instructor, led a clear and meaningful class, and made everyone feel very welcome! I am so happy I found Jai Yoga!
Chris
I love pace of the classes and the attention given. I love how friendly everyone is, but not in an uncomfortable way. And the space is beautiful with very good vibes!
Val Marjoram
Jai is very welcoming and relaxing. The classes are approachable for students of all levels. I love that the instructors gently help reach positions. They also use calming oils during shavasana that really allow you to decompress. Another great aspect of Jai is the sense of community it has. Although I was brand new, it was great to meet and talk to other students over hot tea at the end of class.
Barbara
The teachers are clearly experienced and the classes are varied but well structured. I like that there is a strong focus on the meditational aspect of practice and the use of props is encouraged. The studio is obviously well cared for and the invitation to tea at the end of class is really lovely and invites opportunity for further learning and connection with teachers and other students. The equipment is in good shape and the space is clean and sunny. I love that students are asked to clean the rental mats at the end of each class.
Akhlis Purnomo
I've only been to 2 instructors so far, but have really enjoyed all the classes. Staff is extremely friendly and inviting, the the classes are just flat out really good- a nice balance of challenge and relaxation. Came here through a recommendation of a friend who started because of a recommendation and I've already been recommending, haha, you all are doing something right :)
Na Ryeong Kim
Very serene studio- when there isn't construction outside! That was a bummer but has nothing to do with jai. Very welcoming space and instructors are patient and relaxed!
Na Ryeong Kim
Very welcoming. Sometimes " spiritual" businesses come off as standoffish or snooty but jai and the people there are very welcoming and warm. Every teacher I've had has been great there, too- really paying attention to practitioners and staying present! Also, the space is always looks beautiful and clean. :)
Na Ryeong Kim
Yesterday, January 3, was my first class at Jai. The teacher was excellent and really helpful. I got the sense that she is passionate about what she does. She even did something that felt like Reiki to each student at the end. The space was warm and inviting and the person at the desk was helpful and friendly. All around a great experience and I plan to buy classes month to month. Also, my lower back pain was significantly decreased after just one class!

After trying many studios around Brooklyn and Manhattan I finally found Jai Yoga Arts. I was searching for a studio that had both a sense of community and would encourage me to explore my boundaries. Ella has created the perfect oasis at Jai where students of all levels can feel comfortable and confident. After practicing at Jai for a year, I decided that I had not only found my studio, I had found where I wanted to deepen my practice and knowledge by pursuing my 200hr. Yoga Teacher Training. Having completed the training this past November, I cannot express how valuable my experience truly was. The training introduced me to new concepts of yoga, other amazing teacher trainees, and allowed me to see that I am capable of so much more than I ever thought possible. The Jai teachers and community have changed my life forever and I am forever grateful that they have helped me take the first steps of my new journey.
Iana Mokeeva
I like the quality of service, the genuine love for the art of yoga that the teachers share, the positive messages given to us to meditate on, the encouragement and adjustments offered in order to help us safely better our practice, and the kind spirits of everyone who both works there and attends Jai. I also really like the way I feel after having attended Jai for a while now. I feel stronger and more balanced and truly miss Jai when I can't attend
Wang Lixia
You all are absolutely amazing! As a yoga newbie, each instructor has been so welcoming and approachable. Not once have I felt intimidated and I really love how each class is designed to accommodate all levels.
Fabienne
great prices, sense of community, integration of meditation, each class/teacher has it's own flavor but also follows a similar structure...I like the consistency combined with the variety, warm welcoming space...doesn't feel too sterile
