Welcome
We’re a small studio in a big city, and we like it that way. Our aim is to create a community that never judges and always supports. At mang’Oh, you’ll get personal attention from NYC’s best yoga teachers in a boutique studio that feels like a little oasis in the city.

At mang’Oh, we believe the practice of yoga is a celebration of life. We aim to create an oasis in the city that allows you to reach your optimal physical and spiritual well-being, building the strength and serenity to live your life with beauty and abundance.
Erica Whalen
When Erica discovered mang’Oh, she was running around New York City teaching at various studios, gyms, and living rooms. At the time, mang’Oh had a tiny community and was in need of some love and inspiration. In 2007, she, along with her business savvy sister and dearest friend Cynthia, purchased and reinvented the studio. Today, mang’Oh has become the place they always dreamed it could be: a sweet yoga sanctuary full of heart and soul.
Erica is in love with the practice of yoga. She profoundly believes in its healing effects for the individual body and spirit, as well as the collective whole. She delights in teaching beautiful and expressive asana classes in the hatha vinyasa style. Every day, she is inspired by and grateful for all of the students and teachers that call mang’Oh their yoga home.
Erica has a BFA in Ballet and Modern Dance from Texas Christian University, and she received her yoga certification through Laughing Lotus Yoga School. She lives in Astoria with her husband, Evan, and their two little ones, Charlie & Lila.
