East of Eden: Yoga and Reformer Pilates

The warmest, friendliest, most helpful and loving yoga studio you could ever wish you. Abigail goes above and beyond to create a really special, educational, fa our friendly and generally wonderful environment. A real credit to her and an asset to the local community. Highly recommend.

I normally really love coming to this place through class pass, amazing teachers. Although lacking in cleanliness in the studios always make me sneeze, this is a forgivable issue.This morning though i was 7 minutes late to a class and the lady at the door would not let me in. She said their lateness policy is 5 minutes. In Yoga philosophy or in helping people, you accomodate for others because life can be unpredictable. As a fellow trainee teacher i couldnt believe that they also told me i still need to pay the no show penalty even though i was in the premises and being denied a class.It has really made me evaluate the values of this yoga studio, obviously they wanted me to pay the penalty so they dont pay the teacher. All of this could be resolved if they just let me in the class and signed me in instead of insisting on a policy that is obviously against yoga philosophy. It is not like i was late to an ashtanga class either.I just dont think anyone should let slide this hypocritical, unemphatetical, rigid rule" someone coined at such a place like this one

Attended Tanja's class and it was creative ! She introduced new movement and approach to yoga practice. Some are long hold make it great to build your strength. Definitely try it out.

I went recently to a yoga class and to take a therapy in one of the therapy rooms and all I can say is I was absolutely disgusted by the dirt, dust, grime and general neglect & dinginess in the therapy room, which didn't even have natural light. I tried to talk with one of the people in charge, the assistant to the owner but she certainly shunned me off very quickly. Made me very uncomfortable so I left quickly. Very condescending attitude. They don't want negative feedback but the only way to get better is to face the dirt girls! I left and will never come back again. So many other splendid studios around London, with basic hygiene cleanliness on the top of my list. Don't know what their attitude is, but it sucks!

Amazing yoga and Pilates studio with a lovely cafe and welcoming atmosphere. I take reformer classes, which are brilliant — the teachers always provide good modifications to make the exercises more or less challenging depending on your personal level.

I've only really ever done yoga here, a little of barre. But just got to say that this is the best studio in East London. Great teachers, sense of community, lovely café! Recommended to anyone! They also do mama baby classes!

Recently discovered this local studio and have felt in love with it! I've tried several of their classes now, and all of them have been great, even as a complete beginner. Staff is super friendly and personable, making you feel welcome from the moment you step through the door.Kristina (or Christina? Not sure how to spell it!) in particular is such a sweetheart, really lovely and helpful, which is SO important especially for yoga newbies like myself! I'd always felt slightly intimidated by yoga classes, and never considered myself to be the type of person that can do that"

Had this studio recommended by a friend after having just moved to Walthamstow - what a gem! I've tried many different yoga studios in the past and this is one of the friendliest/nicest. The studios are clean with beautiful plants everywhere. The staff are super helpful and friendly. The range of classes is brilliant - would really recommend barre with Scarlette who is super friendly and encouraging. Defo worth checking out their intro offer :)

This is one of those places that makes Walthamstow special - it's a lovely pilates (both mat and reformer) and yoga studio with classes for all levels. There is even a gentle pilates class (for people like me who like exercise calm!) which leaves you feeling calm, stronger and more motivated - it's also a good way of disconnecting from work and the general anxiety of life as it's a beautiful space with plants and natural light. And the owner is a force of nature, it feels great to support in independent place like this.

Just had a barre class for the first time with Kage and loved it! I have a young baby and these classes at East of Eden are my sanity hour. I especially liked Kage' class as although we worked hard, he took time to explain proper positioning as I have injured myself before in a class. Plus, the rhythm he sets to the tunes is spot on! I will definitely be back for such a talented instructor. Thank you!
