Yoga Off East is a modern yoga studio rooted in ancient tradition. Find our schedule at https://www.yogaoffeast.com/weeklyclasssched. See you on the mat!

Located in downtown Durham's American Tobacco Campus, we offer yoga classes every day of the week. The idea of a neighborhood studio on Ninth Street started as the personal goal of one Duke Alum and manifested as the result of a close knit and supportive community in Durham and the Triangle, as a whole. Yoga students of all levels are welcomed to roll out their yoga mats and flow with us. Our Values
RITUAL. The discipline of showing up brings incredible rewards. COMMUNITY. Together we strengthen our collective positive impact. PERSONAL GROWTH. Your work in the world matters. CREATIVITY. Our studio is designed to nurture your creative spirit. SIMPLICITY. We believe it’s important to “keep the ease alive”

As the year comes to a close, we’re feeling extra grateful for the community we get to be part of — both inside and beyond our studio walls.

For your end-of-year giving, consider supporting two of our Yoga Off East community partners who are doing beautiful, meaningful work right here in Durham and beyond:

🤍 PORCH Durham — supporting our neighbors through food access, dignity, and care. Head to ’s link in bio for info on how to volunteer or donate!

🤍 Shanti Bhavan — creating life-changing educational opportunities for children in India. (Head to 🔗 in our bio to read a heartfelt blog written by YOE student Amanda Turner, with info on how to donate!💫)

❄️ Baby it’s cold outside…but it’s cozy and warm in the studio! ❄️ Yoga Off East is not a hot yoga studio, but some of our classes feature gentle infrared warmth. Unlike traditional heat, infrared panels warm the body directly—like basking in sunlight ☀️ rather than stepping into a sauna 🥵. Our ceiling panels emit therapeutic heat that supports circulation, eases tension, and deepens relaxation—come experience the difference:

✨ Warm Balanced Flow every Wednesday at 6:15 AM

✨ Warm Balanced Flow every Thursday at 6:00 PM

✨ Warm Balanced Flow every Sunday at 10:00 AM

✨ And don’t miss our Warm Winter Series—rotating teachers & specially themed classes with the extra radiance of infrared panels (75-85 degrees) every Sunday at 6:00 PM!
