    I’ve been practicing consistently with alex for about 15 years. I moved away from nyc to Connecticut and I’ve enjoyed being able to continue practicing together over zoom. His classes always make me feel grounded and restored.

    I loveeee New Vibe and the teacher and owner Alex! This was my introduction to Ashtanga after primarily practicing Vinyasa/Hatha. I immediately felt connected to this style and studio! The studio is covered in original art, smells amazing, and creates a really special environment. Alex leads students through the Primary Series, while modifying some of the more difficult postures to make class more inclusive for different levels. I absolutely love this studio and approach especially compared to a lot of trendy/ corporate yoga studios in NYC. It is so authentic and takes care to honor yogic principles! Alex is so so warm, and gives feedback and adjustments. He really takes care of his students and becomes a friend to them :) I miss him in NYC but am enjoying his online classes!

    Favorite yoga instructor and style of yoga. I took Alex’s online classes first and absolutely loved them so booked a private session with him here in San Francisco. He has a very peaceful style while being motivating at the same time, it keeps me coming back for more.
