My Happy Yoga Place is yoga studio for everyone off all different fitness levels. Whether you are new to yoga or an experienced yogi, the classes at MHYP will benefit you. In all of the classes, Alaina shows the poses in various levels. She begins with the easiest version of the pose then continues to show ways to make the pose more challenging. She is always reminding us to do what is right for our body. If you need help during a pose Alaina will assist you so you get the benefit from the pose without hurting yourself. It's a judgment free zone. You do what you can. MYHP is a welcoming supportive place to get your body moving and feel good about it.

My Happy Yoga Place is exactly what it says! You have the opportunity to choose any style class you want: slow, fast, relaxing, challenging. And, you also get to make your practice your own! I have a lot of body ailments that tend to keep me from doing certain things on some days but it never feels discouraged. Alaina provides different levels of movements so you are able to modify when needed! Then, some days I tend to move faster through movements if I’m feeling good. It’s all encouraged to make your practice happy, supported and fun. Note: I gravitate towards the Revitalize class because it is faster paced and more challenging than the Beginners. BUT remember, you are always able to tailor towards YOU! Don’t be afraid to try revitalize after beginners. I always feel welcomed. I never leave the studio without feeling better after completing a class. Alaina always makes sure to provide the best class. She helps everyone (whether hands on or hand off), explains each movement very well, and keeps the environment positive. Alaina also communicates updates and announcements at the beginning of each class and on Facebook to keep all the yogi’s informed! I’ve been doing yoga about twice a week since ~October of 2023. It was a great decision and I’m glad I took a chance on it. Yoga gets me out of the house (I work from home) and gets me moving! I highly recommend you give it a try!

I absolutely love My Happy Yoga Place!! Alaina is wonderful, so welcoming, kind and makes you feel that she is happy to see you. She is an amazing instructor, has made my yoga experience so enjoyable. Everyone that comes to her classes are so nice and helpful. I started out as a beginner but I feel I am getting stronger and more flexible. I always can’t wait to come and then feel so great afterwards.

There is a class for everyone at My Happy Yoga Place no matter your level. The instructor, Alaina, is really wonderful. Everyone is welcome and there is no judgement. The location in Charlotte Hall is very nice and clean and very convenient. The beginner class has a very nice flow to it. Poses are explained and shown how to do safely. All levels can enjoy the beginner class. Revitalize flow steps up the level and utilizes strengthening poses, but I still think a newcomer could handle the class. Zen Flow is a very nice stretch and relaxation class much the same poses and exercises that I have done in physical therapy for my back and hips. I highly recommend Alaina and My Happy Yoga Place.
