Kaia Yoga & Meditation - Downtown Wallingford

I’m in love with Rise Yoga. Wallingford is full of so many gems and this is one of them. There are a nice variety of class times as well as styles. The instructors are knowledgeable and friendly. I always feel very comfortable that I’m in good, capable hands. Every class leaves me feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, revitalized, and overall just absolutely amazing. The space is comfortable and welcoming. Come take a class, you have nothing to lose and so much to gain.

One of the most well-deserved online reviews I’ll probably ever write. After suffering from chronic back pain for years, I decided to try a yoga class at Kaia to see if it would help. And within just a few classes, I was hooked. Not only has my back pain decreased significantly, but I’ve found a place where I can truly shift away from the busyness of everyday life and refocus. I have been to many yoga studios back when I lived in NYC and DC, and Kaia surpasses all of them. The instructors are terrific and the community is so kind and welcoming. 10/10 recommended!

Rise Yoga is my happy place!! Kelsey, the owner, and her staff are all wonderful instructors who are very supportive. The studio offers a variety of classes- from challenging workouts to restorative/relaxing options. The studio is warm and welcoming and provides a sense of community. In addition to classes, Rise offers workshops such as Yoga at the Farm, Essential Oils, Yoga Nidra and more! Kelsey is always thinking of incentives to keep us all motivated. If you are looking for a yoga studio- try Rise I guarantee you won’t regret it!

Great Yoga Studio & Instructors! I love this place. There are a variety of classes, at accessible times, for all levels. The classes are a perfect combination of mediation/breathing, exercise/stretching, flow and personal self-awareness and growth. All of the instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate. I like how they teach yoga as well. Sometimes studios will go through moves without focus on proper positioning for poses. These instructors help you through poses by giving instructions and modifications, truly helping all levels participate. Because of their guidance/modifications, I was able to hold a position I never thought I could do! I feel the perfect combination of comfort and challenge after every practice. The studio itself is serene and beautiful. You feel like you can really escape during the practice. I have finally found a yoga place to love! They are the best.

Rise Yoga is more than just a studio - once a member you are part of the Rise community! Kelsey the owner is very innovative - always offering lots of workshops, fun events/games and even a retreat. I absolutely love the studio and all it encompasses. I’ve been to other studios and this one is by far the best!
