Nirguna Yoga

I started practicing at Nirguna in 2019, and it became my home studio immediately. The teachers are incredibly well‑trained, and the class schedule is both frequent and wonderfully diverse. You’ll find Ashtanga, regular and hot Vinyasa, 26 & 2 (formerly Bikram), yoga for beginners, yin, and plenty of other styles to explore. In 2022, I completed my 200‑hour Yoga Instructor training at Nirguna, which inspired me to become a personal trainer and build my own path, with yoga as the foundation of how I approach calisthenics and health in general. I learned so much here, and I use those lessons every single day. The community here is welcoming, supportive, and full of genuine yogis. I highly recommend giving this studio a try—I’m pretty sure you’ll end up calling it home too. Hope to see you on the mat soon. Namaste.

Nirguna yoga has the special quality of feeling like a community space and a sacred space. Since Shree Yoga in Taos closed during the pandemic I have felt without a home to be a yogi and practice with kindred souls and inspired teachers. Since joining Nirguna a few months ago, I am grateful to say I’ve found that home again. Incredibly affordable, with a variety of classes and amazingly consistently excellent teachers I could not be more pleased with my decision to become a member. I truly could not give it a more whole hearted recommendation. If you are looking for a home and a community for yourself and your yoga practice or want to begin your yoga journey, please consider taking a class here or just dive in and get a membership like I did. I’ve always said going to a yoga class is always a good decision. Becoming a member of Nirguna is a great decision!

I have thoroughly enjoyed every class here, all the teachers are great and funny and make you feel comfortable. The hot yoga is a great temperature too, it’s not uncomfortably hot but works up a nice sweat. Love being a part of this studio and the community they create!

I have taken various classes with various instructors here and always walk away from each experience blissed out. Instructors provide consistent, meaningful cues to deepen not only the poses, but each student’s understanding of self as a physical, intellectual, and spiritual being. I am new to yoga, but find it to be the perfect complement to my athletic lifestyle and physically demanding career. When I count my blessings, I count Nirguna Yoga twice. PS Ben’s motivational skillset is like Tony Robbins on steroids. Do yourself a favor and make Nirguna a regular part of your self-love journey. 🫶

I don’t make it to classes at Nirguna Yoga as often as I’d like, mainly because my gym membership already includes a wide range of yoga classes and the studio is across town from where I live. Still, I’m always happy to make the drive, because the quality of teaching at Nirguna is truly exceptional. Having practiced yoga since 2002, I’ve had the opportunity to learn from and observe many teachers in Albuquerque and around the world. Kendra and Ben are simply in a different league. A quick look at their profiles on the Nirguna website makes it clear why: they don’t just teach yoga—they live it.
