Great class, amazing instructors! Studio is clean and beautiful! If you want to feel challenged and experience a variety of classes to level up your total self (mind and body) then The Zen Den is a must! In studio or online you will come out of class a better version of yourself!

I have been practicing at the Zen Den with Ari for over a decade almost two now. She is inspiring both physically pushing us to be stronger every day but her intentions also resonate to daily life. I’ve loved her Zoom classes for when we are not in margate! Prepare to be challenged many ways at the zen den!

This is the type of studio you go to when you want to deepen your practice, get strong while doing it, and be inspired every single time you walk through the door. Ari has a vast knowledge of the Sanskrit origins of yoga. She will safely prepare your body to gradually build on the opening of poses rather than throwing you into something your muscles may not be ready for. Ari not only writes her own intentions for each class, she also subtly infuses them into various parts of the class to reconnect you with them and remind you that yoga is a body mind and soul journey. For me, between the flow, the music, and the heat, these classes are a little bit of magic.

I started going to Zen Den about 10 years ago. It came highly recommend by a good friend. I am forever grateful to that friend because the Zen Den has changed my life. Not only am I physically stronger, but i am also mentally stronger. Ari is more than just a yoga instructor. Her intentions always hit home, like she somehow knows what is going on in your life. I didn’t think i would like yoga because it would be too boring or not hard enough workout. Well, Ari proved this theory wrong. Her classes are always challenging and her playlist are always motivating. I leave every class dripping sweat and refreshed. I highly recommend this unique, amazing yoga studio.

I was introduced to Ari and Zen Den at the start of the pandemic and have been obsessed ever since. I do only Zoom classes since I don’t live close to Margate but Ari always makes you feel like you are right there. Her yoga is unlike anything I’ve ever done before from more traditional vinyasa power yoga, to toning with weights, to high intensity cardio. Ari’s inspirations at the start of each class have deeply resonated with me and helped me so much these last few years. So grateful for Zen Den. Five stars all around!!

I’ve been going to the Zen Den for many years now and have been to many other studios, but Zen Den is simply the best of the best. I always leave better than I felt walking in and always feel at home while I’m there. The variety of classes is unmatched by any studio or gym I’ve ever seen, the quality of the classes is masterful and the playlists are amazing! I find myself listening to them driving around sometimes! You can go to Zen Den everyday and never be bored or feel something is repetitious. Whether you’re wanting to slow down and breathe more and get your heart rate pumping, Zen Den has something for everyone! Oh and I’m super picky and critical! I would give more than 5 stars if possible!

The Zen Den has been my yoga home now for almost 10 years. Having studied at many other studios and schools, the Zen Den has been, by far, where I’ve had the most growth, both physically and mentally.Also offered are options between yoga style and yoga fitness, which makes for a more balanced well being. She’s progressive, always changing up sequences and always guides newer students with her strong knowledge and ability the opportunity to modify each pose with cues.My experience here has been nothing short of tremendous! I highly recommend!

I have been going to the Zen Den now for 7 years and I am sooooo thankful that I took a chance one day and found it! I am a life long athlete but was new to yoga and the Zen Den classes covered all my needs: more “traditional” yoga, cardio with yoga moves intertwined and now even some interval HITT type classes with light weights to help strengthen while still using those yoga poses to work all accessory muscles. For me, using music with the class has also been key. Playlists vary from day to day along with the intention and mood of the class. As long as there’s a Zen Den I will be continuing my yoga journey with them! A bonus is the online option…Patreon. This lets me stay in shape when I have other obligations keeping out of the studio class. It’s always better in person but when I can’t make it I love having this option! Thank you Zen Den!!! ???

The Zen Den is an amazing yoga studio! It has a very positive and encouraging environment. Ari is a very experienced and knowledgeable instructor. She creates unique classes that are fun that will kick your a$$ while listening to great music. She provides helpful modifications if you need them and good instruction of what to expect next. If you are looking for a unique style and a variety of classes that will sculpt your body then this is the place to be!

I was looking for a studio that is within walking distancing. And I'm kicking myself for not coming to Zen Den sooner... While it isn't super busy during the winter months - I'm positive this place is packed during the summer. When I'm back in town - I'll def get some drop in passes. Be aware that there are limited hours during the winter. By limited - I mean once a day (in-person or virtual), so schedule your work zoom meetings around it if you can. Listen - I'm not a habitual practice of yoga but this studio is so much more than that. I'm absolutely the least in tune and shape here, but I kind of love it that I also don't feel awkward in here/can flow and stop when needed. Think hit plus yoga. But be warn - I would def consider all of their classes relatively challenging even though it's for all levels. I almost brought my life experienced mother-in law a pass for the holidays, this would not have been a good fit for her if you are looking for a slow and senior flow. Go to the JCC for that. Although - this place would totally have a market for that demographic in the summer if they wanted a class like that. But - this ain't your momma's class. Things to note: 1) Everyone is vaccinated and proof of vaccination status is required for all members. I actually 100% came for this and I don't need to wear a mask. 2) Sign up online for $25 per a class but there are usually package or unlimited deals. If you are late - do not use the side door because it's probably locked. The front one usually stays opened. 3) Virtual classes during the live one (1/2 off). Hmmm - I might think about this since I don't live here year round but I do like going to classes feeling the energy from others. 4) always hot .. like 90+ ... bring a towel and water bc there is no way you are not dripping with sweat. 5)whoever posted a picture of the owner at the storming of the capital - that is not Ari and not the owner. To be honest - I hesitated to come here at first but then I realized that was not a legitimate posting. Bottom-line: this ain't your momma's yoga and hit class. Men and women and all genders come, sweat (it's always hot AF), and breathe together.
