Just Hanging

If you’ve never made it to Blissful Yoga Studio in Glendale, don’t worry, they’re coming to you. Yes, this sleek sanctuary in the northwest Valley’s Arrowhead neighborhood has already expanded to north Phoenix and (eventually) Scottsdale.

So, what makes Blissful different from other yoga studios, and what’s with the upside-down ladies pictured above? First of all, Blissful offers nearly 20 different types of classes, including both traditional and hot room yoga available in two separate rooms of the studio. Each new studio will also be built with bamboo floors, low emission paint, energy efficient lighting and heating/cooling, and plenty of natural light. Finally, all locations will house the only wall of its kind in Arizona, the Great Yoga Wall. This specialty apparatus, complete with straps and bars, “is used to deepen and engage yoga postures as well as provide a therapeutic support that allows students to open deeper, invert easier and create more space within their bodies.”

It’s no wonder why the famed St. Joseph’s Hospital in Phoenix has partnered with Blissful to create a private studio inside the medical complex, where employees will be able to relax and unwind by using the hospital’s exclusive studio during a variety of classes that will be offered throughout the day.
