I am a complete novice in Yoga. I'm an amputee. I'm overweight, middle-aged and inflexible. I truly thought I would embarrass myself going here with my wife who has convinced me that you get stiff THEN old, not old and stiff.
So off to Shakti I went with her for 3 classes (so far). Rather than feel embarrassed or that I could not do yoga, Patricia helped use mats, blocks, sandbags and other props to make sure my artificial leg was accommodated, AND that I could do beginner poses effectively with proper form and comfort.
I feel that continued patronage here will benefit my tight, sore muscles and improve my quality of life.
Thanks, Shakti Yoga!

I love this yoga studio! There are classes for all levels of yoga practice. I especially love the restorative class Sunday night at 6. It is a great way to end your week and prepare for Monday. Patricia leads the class and is attentive and the ambiance of the studio is just perfect not to mention super affordable!
I'm in town visiting my parents and came here for the restorative class. It was wonderful. I'm hoping to be able to come to a few more classes here while I'm in town. I love the space and the teacher was so helpful getting us into position with props.
I have been practicing yoga for 4 years and had been looking for a place to grow my personal practice for a few years but have never found what I was looking for until visiting Shakti Yoga Center. Patricia and her instructors have helped me learn so much (and am still learning). I would highly recommend the morning Awakening class. I feel the things I learn with meditation and breathing methods, along with this particular yoga class have been (continue to be) LIFE CHANGING. Patricia encourages you with sincere direction and insight, I recommend Shakti Yoga Center for all levels. ~
I've been attending yoga classes at shakti for almost 2 years. I got introduced by my husband and we make it our very special time together. I'm really saddened by the recent negativity directed towards the studio and towards the owner. We have had a great experience not only attending classes with Patricia but also with the rest of her staff. Isn't yoga supposed to be about love and healing? There seems to be some heavy bad vibe coming from greedy 3rd parties that only want to hurt this business. I take offense with Amy's comments on yelp stating that women have no self respect for attending yoga here. While its unfortunate that you posted a negative review, your attack towards people you dont even know says more about yourself and your malicious intent, than about the business.
I plan on keep.up attending yoga classes here and I assure you I have tons of self-respect, and so do the many other women who consistently attend classes here. In fact, practicing at shakti has made me a better person and has healed my relationship with my husband tremendously.
We have attended the restorative yoga classes and we have never felt disrespected in any way, on the contrary, the teachers always strive to make us feel comfortable. Joshua is such a delight on weekdays, pure poetry!
Shakti yoga center is a premier location and frankly the best studio in Garland, TX. Patricia goes above and beyond her duties as owner and teacher. She's a trusted mentor and a healer.
If you are looking for a great yoga studio, with great variety of classes and friendly and always respectful staff, please do the adult thing and check for yourself. Don't believe resentful haters ganging on social media. Yoga is like food, you have to taste it yourself and then decide if you liked it.
I hope all the haters find something better to do than trying to ruin our beloved studio with pettiness, false reviews and social media gossip. I, for sure, support and stand by Patricia and assure you there's a big army of proud women and men ready to support and defend our beloved Shakti

I tried restorative yoga at this studio last year. There were 3 students so there was a good amount of attention, however the blankets were very itchy and cause me to have hives. I would definitely give this another chance in long sleeves, because I liked the concept of restorative yoga. Although this studio is beautiful I dont think I'd return here because I kept trying to get the blankets off my bare skin and not ruin the vibe of the class but the instructor kept putting them back and chastising me for not relaxing and concentrating. Also edit 1 after initial owner response - so yes I did tell the teacher towards the end of the class when I couldn't stand it anymore. I only posted on google now because of recent articles about this studio reminded me. Good luck in keeping your business open when you're this blatantly rude. Edit 2- that is a much better response then your first one. I did grab a screen shot so I do have your initial reaction still that caused me to lower my review.

I've been going to this studio for a year and a half. LOVE IT! The instructors are AMAZING! They are very concerned about practicing safely. There is never any pressure to look pretty, just do good things for your body. I took a hard fall a few months back(close encounter of the wrong kind with an uneven sidewalk). Being a woman of "a certain age", I am very fortunate that I didn't break anything. I am of the firm belief that yoga and the instructors at Shakti helped me avoid what could have been a really bad situation. The owner, Patricia Alonso, even offered to bring me some broth. That's going above and beyond owning a business!

Best yoga studio in Garland. Patricia is an awesome instructor. Never boring, leave there feeling great!
Hello Everyone! In September 2018 it will be over 2 yrs that I have practiced under Patricia. Patricia and her awesome staff individually regardless to which class you attend assist, help you feel comfortable and make your experience each time you get on mat, amazing! The entire staff each take pride, prepare for each class and adjust so that you never feel uncomfortable or lost during practice. Even the people that attend regularly welcome new people entering this beautiful, peaceful space. You will never leave as you came it. It is a peaceful, tranquil, always positive space to come back and reconnect within. This place has sustained me mentally the past 2 yrs. I have been caring for an aging mother. This studio was and still is my calm. I admire and humbly, "thank the entire staff" for your commitment to your practice of yoga and helping us to seek higher stillness! Namaste!

I have had the opportunity to take classes with four different instructors and must say that each has been wonderful. Their knowledge and instruction has been beneficial for me in my practice of yoga. Top that off with a beautiful and well maintained studio and Patricia has created a winning combination. Namaste.
Beautiful studio and space! I loved my Saturday morning class. I brought a friend and we both thought it was a challenging yet gentle class for two beginners/verging on intermediate level. We had all ability ranges in our class, and there were adaptations for everyone.

I love Shakti Yoga! The teachers are really good. Patricia did something really nice to encourage me to commit to my yoga practice again. The new studio in downtown Garland is absolutely gorgeous, too! Also, the other students are kind and welcoming.
Edit: What's unfortunate is that you're the first business I've gotten emails from and been unable to unsubscribe by clicking on an unsubscribe button at the very bottom of the email and instead have to log in or reset the password and delete it, or use a laptop to send your emails to junk. Unfortunately, like you responded in an email, I'm signed up for the emails if I sign up for even one class. So I did not really have a choice with that. Just like you stated in your email response that you're busy, I'm busy as well. The 1 star is because of the tone in the emails you replied with. The sarcasm isn't hard to spot in them. Nice way of representing your business. Have a nice day.
Love the yoga classes but the owner Patricia can make you feel uncomfortable I was the only one taking the class. when it was over she said I'm very lucky cause one on one classes are more then I paid for its not my fault I'm the only one that showed up!
This center of traditional Hatha Yoga has changed my perspective in my personal practice and overall life.
The owner Patricia Alonso has a tremendous wealth of safe yogic practices for all levels; age, mobility and flexibility will not stop her from getting you to your physical potential through safe modifications and the use of the soft and sturdy floor. She has ensured her staff is also aware of these modifications.
This is a place of growth and unlocking potential.
I arrived to class 10 minutes late and the yoga instructor refused to teach the class the websites says doors will be locked 10 minutes after class starts the class started at 5:30 I arrived at 5:40 I was the only person attending the class and the yoga instructor chose to leave instead of proceeding with class not very good service in my opinion I'll be asking for a refund on my membership in the morning
One of a few places in the DFW metroplex where you can find a true kundalini class, and this is a top notch studio to boot! With soft yoga floors, house mats, and all the accessories you may need, it's the perfect place to drop in for a class!
This is a brand new yoga studio open in Garland, TX. The teachers are excellent. It is very good energy and I feel really welcome and energized, relaxed and centered after class. We really needed this in our area. I am thankful to have a place I can practice a few minutes from home!
