Hello! I stumbled across this amazing group via a Google search looking for **INSPIRATION NAMING MY YOGA STUDIO**. I noticed that there was a similar thread over three years ago, but I am hoping there are some \*\*new and fresh ideas \*\*out there 🙂 Every time we think we came up with a brilliant idea, someone else has already thought of it before us … kinda like men, all the good ones are taken lol! My partner and I are taking over an existing studio and need to change the name quickly. We offer \*\*regular and hot Hatha yoga \*\*(including teacher training, aerial yoga, pre and post natal classes, couples yoga, etc.). We are looking for a \*\*gender neutral name \*\*that would appeal to everyone from **teenagers to seniors and everyone in between**. We are located in a physically active lakeside community in Canada. Our goal is to \*\*create an environment that feels like a second home \*\*to our yoga community. Many thanks for your help … looking forward to hearing your ideas! ---

ISTM that the goals of yoga study are not well-conveyed by clever, flashy, punning names. I might submit that particularly given your probably bucolic local, you simply go with something like “A Better Way – Yoga Instruction and Meditation Center.” If you _must_ include an appeal to the hip set, you could also post a discreet sign reading, _“Free Zoomba Classes on alternate Tuesday eves.”_ ETA: A very warm welcome to the SDMB, btw. I hope you find what you are seeking here. 🙂 ---
