About our space
There are no mirrors here. No gurus. No performance. You don’t have to be flexible. Or strong. Or know what you’re doing. We’re all just here practicing, moving, wobbling, breathing, surprising ourselves, becoming aware of our bodies, exploring our minds, grounding our thoughts, becoming stronger, creating space in our muscles, massaging our internal organs, taking care of our tendons, finding balance, learning our rhythm, supporting our mobility, increasing circulation, reducing stress, giggling, resting, drumming, dancing, telling poetry and taking a moment to enjoy art. We're just enjoying ourselves and building a little community that you’re so welcome to be a part of. Hope to see you around :)

If you're reading this, thank you. I’m Alla, and my yoga journey began in a hot studio in Brooklyn, NY. My sanctuary in the middle of a chaotic life and city. What started as a way to move my body became something much deeper: a practice that nourished me mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Over the years I’ve explored many pathways of connection. From yoga philosophy and Ayurveda to West African djembe circles, sound medicine, Reiki, and the teachings of Buddhism and Hinduism. Each has shaped how I practice and how I hold space: with intention, compassion, and curiosity.
Studio Soma was born from a desire for a space dedicated to yoga and wellness practices. Not borrowed halls or gyms, but a home where practice and creativity can feel sacred. Wellness is so much more than fitness (although you'll definitely get that here too!) and I hope our space can show that to people. It was built with love by local, regular people, just like you. My mum, my partner Glenn, his dad Terry, and our incredible friends.
Whether you’re stepping onto the mat for the first time or deepening your journey, you are warmly welcome here.
Much love, see you when I see you :)
