ABOUT YOGAJA
Regular exercise is crucial for health and well-being, but a holistic approach is essential. Our DO IT DAILY philosophy integrates various aspects of yoga into a daily practice for wholeness. We offer over 40 yoga asana and meditation classes weekly, allowing you to create a personalized schedule from Power to Gentle yoga. While the best experience comes with a Monthly Unlimited Membership, we also provide free yoga programs and scholarships in the Toledo community. Our philosophy is built on ASANA, MEDITATION, KNOWLEDGE, NATURE, and COMMUNITY. Scroll down to learn more about our yoga community events in Toledo.
Asana, the physical practice of yoga, is what most Westerners think of when we say yoga.
At Yogaja in Toledo, we offer a diverse range of yoga classes led by teachers who masterfully combine physical movement and breath. Our classes can challenge your physical limits or elevate you to a celestial state, often both. We recommend creating a well-rounded yoga schedule by incorporating different levels and styles.
Check our class schedule for a variety of weekly offerings and stay updated with our event schedule for specialized workshops on specific asanas and body movements, like inversions or alleviating back pain. Discover the full range of our Toledo yoga classes here.
