We look forward to sharing practice with you
Our Interdisciplinary Approach
Samatva Yoga, established in 2006, sets new standards in what you can expect from a yoga studio (hot + not!). Our belief is that anyone can practice yoga and gain positive benefits from it. We feature +100 drop-in Hot, Room Temperature, Family + Suspension Yoga™, Live Streaming + Outdoor Yoga lasses running weekly for all experience levels.
Dynamic, inspiring, well-trained educators, a fully stocked retail boutique & rental equipment, massage + bodywork, special events + workshops are just the start. Even—Especially!—if you have never stepped inside a yoga studio before, we have everything you need to feel at home…and more. We have now been inspiring happy, healthy, peaceful lives in our Kingston community for almost 15 years and continue to grow and thrive, and bring calm and joy to people in our ever-growing city.
Be alive. Be strong. Be fit. Be Happy. Just be.
Studio Founder
With a background in dance (specifically ballet, lyrical and jazz), Jaime ventured to the pacific coast of Costa Rica to complete her initial 200-hr YA Yoga Teacher Certification at Nosara Yoga Insitute under Don and Amba Stapleton. Upon returning, she taught at local venues and for other Kingston Yoga Studios and within a few years (and more studying & practicing) opened Samatva Yoga West End.
THANK YOU! Without the amazing crew of teachers and staff, Samatva Yoga would never be what it has grown into today. So many teachers have been with us throughout the years. Maggie, Kelly & Katie are among the original studio staff, now teaching at Samatva for almost 10+ years. In addition, thanks to Brendine, Tiiu, Kristie, Katy for over five years of dedicated sharing to Samatva’s Community.
Yoga Changes You
+ Opens Your Heart
“I am hugely passionate about the transformational benefits of yoga and meditation and the power they have to help us see what we truly are; works in progress. I teach yoga from the heart, with the sole aim of encouraging others to love themselves and the world a little bit more each day. I'm a great lover of restorative, yin + yoga nidra meditation and like to incorporate this into most classes. In a culture obsessed with 'doing', these supported postures serve as the perfect antidote and offer untold benefits to the entire being.”
