It’s STILL Super Soul Sunday, even without class on the schedule!!

Today is a reminder that the practice doesn’t only live on the mat. It lives in how you rest, how you breathe, how you check in with yourself, and how you choose ease when the world asks for more. Let today be spacious. Let it be slow. Let it be nourishing in whatever way you need.

We’ll be back together soon. Until then, tend to your spirit, pour gently into yourself, and carry that Super Soul energy into the week ahead. HEART FORWARD!! ❤️

For those in our community observing Kwanzaa, today we honor Day 2: Kujichagulia (Self-Determination) 🖤❤️💚

A reminder that we get to define ourselves, name ourselves, and move through the world on our own terms. In a season full of noise and expectation, Kujichagulia invites us back to our inner knowing: choosing alignment over approval, intention over impulse.

However you’re observing today, may you feel rooted in your truth and empowered in your becoming. We see you, we honor you, and we’re grateful to share space in community.

Give yourself permission to break the cycles that no longer serve you.
The urgency, the over-giving, the pressure to perform joy. You don’t have to carry any of it into this season. Seek the stillness your spirit has been craving. Let your healing be the quiet gift you give yourself.

This time of year can be loud, but your peace doesn’t have to be.
Choose softness. Choose presence. Choose the kind of care that reminds you that. you’re whole, even in transition. Come set the tone with us tonight at our Holiday Sound Bath!!

Heading into the holiday week, stay rooted in your own rhythm. Release the guilt. Release the urgency. You are not behind. Just as time is a construct, the schedule can change. Trust yourself to move in a way that feels honest and sustainable. You don’t need to arrive at the finish line by Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukah or New Year’s.

We hope to see you tomorrow for our Holiday Sound Bath with !

We’re starting 2026 the way we know best with breath, movement, and community. Join Jyll for our annual Breath & Beats: Hour of Power and step into the new year with a flow that says we’re still here.

This isn’t about resolutions or reinventing yourself overnight. It’s about showing up honestly, intentionally, and in your body. One breath at a time. One beat at a time.

The wonderful will be curating the vibe, carrying us through a powerful, grounding practice to set the tone for the year ahead.

Come as you are. Start where you are.
Let’s welcome 2026 together. Link is in our bio to save your mat!

The lotus doesn’t wait for perfect conditions.
It roots itself in the mud, in the murk, in what’s heavy and unseen, and STILL rises toward the light. At the end of the day, the day will end and the sun will rise. Find your light!

Let this be your reminder: where you come from does not limit what you can become. Growth isn’t about avoiding the mess, it’s about transforming it. Bloom anyway!! Have a fabulous Thursday! 🌸

How do we find room to let go? Sometimes it’s not about adding more…it’s about softening what we’re holding. The tension, the timelines, the expectations that were never ours to carry. On the mat, we practice release in small ways so it feels possible off the mat too. Breathe. Ease. Trust that making space is enough for today.

The breath + beats of the street.

Jyll Hubbard-Salk decided to open Urban Asanas in her neighborhood of Crown Heights, Brooklyn as a space for people of all walks of life and backgrounds to come together, practice yoga and breathe.

Since 2012, Urban Asanas has cultivated a diverse and growing community, offering many styles of yoga and workshops to practitioners of all levels. In 2017, Jyll moved the studio three doors down to the corner of Nostrand Avenue and Sterling Place, expanding into a larger, beautiful space featuring bamboo floors and lots of natural light.

Urban Asanas continues to focus on building community and making yoga fun and accessible to all. The studio offers multiple donation based classes every week, free yoga mat rentals and discounted rates for seniors and high school students. Classes range from high intensity Power with a focus on alignment and building strength to 60 minute donation based Community classes offering a Vinyasa flow. Also on our weekly schedule are prenatal yoga and restorative, slow moving Yin classes. In addition, we organize monthly workshops bringing different forms of wellness, yoga and self care to our community.

Whether you are a seasoned yogi or have never tried yoga before, the doors of Urban Asanas are open and we look forward to meeting you.
