My absolute favorite studio in this region. The owners have poured their hearts and souls into making a beautiful space for practice. There are options for online and in person. I usually go to classes with Bart who welcomes all levels of practice. He encourages people to do what feels good for their bodies and never pushes anyone beyond their limits.

This is my favorite yoga studio I've ever attended. The intention behind the teaching, studio space, and community building is more than I ever expected. The owners, staff and members create a practice that is aligned with their values in a way that feels really special. I feel (gratefully) exhausted after every Saturday dharma yoga class, in particular! 10/10 would recommend

A yoga studio without ego is hard to find. Bart and Lindsay walk the walk of minimalist life, gross acceptance, and Big Love. This new studio is a move from downtown, and I couldn't be more excited to see how they take it to the next level. They are true to the lineage of Dharma Mitra, but also to their own authentic take on life. Come for asana, stay for meditation. <3

This is a space I feel safe, feel at home, and I deeply resonate with. I love the yoga classes here. Being here, I could definitely feel the love and care for one another, also how they deeply care about the community around us.

I visited The new space on Chapel Hill road and I did not like that one could look into the windows at dark. Chapel hill road is not the very best location and it felt unsafe to me to be so exposed

Love supporting this vegan-owned studio! It really feels like home with a great community vibe. And the studio is gorgeous with nice views of downtown. There are several weekly classes to choose from with a variety of styles and levels. They also regularly offer different workshops, retreats, and teacher trainings. They also live their values and are active in the community as well as operating a non-profit, LiveGlobally.
And the weekly vegan breakfasts and monthly vegan supper club are always soooo delicious! All meals are gluten-free friendly as well, and lovingly prepared by local herbalist and artist Lindsey Elcessor.

I so appreciate the love and care that has gone into this studio. Global Breath studio has brought me many positive, renewing experiences and always feels like a safe haven. They have helped create a strong community around yoga in Durham, and are a continual source of positivity for that community. The instruction is wonderful! I even had a virtual 1-on-1 with Bart recently, where he was very generous in working with me and sharing pieces of his Dharma practice that were relevant to me... I feel very blessed and grateful! Thank you!

A beautiful and calming space. As an absolute newbie, I found the environment and instructors (I met two of them) to be warmly welcoming. Highly recommended.

I love my yoga classes at Global Breath, because I never feel that I am not as good as ( my instructors, the others...). I am safe and welcome here and that's why I felt brave enough today to take a class that is outside of my comfort zone. It was an Asanas and essential oils workshop with MJ Walker and Melissa Lido and I enjoyed it immensely and learned so much. I feel that there is a network here that will help me figure out what I need and how to approach it. Next step Shaga or maybe first yoga with puppies.. there is so much to explore

I spent most of 2019 with a medical condition that had left me in some pain. My wife suggested that I try something to get moving again. Though skeptical, I agreed to try yoga. I was not in good physical condition, and wary that yoga would turn out to be an intimidating exercise program involving my being twisted about, and generally stretched beyond my comfort level.

I recently spent a few months in Durham and one of the best discoveries was Global Breath Studio. Bart and Lindsay run the studio and it is warm, welcoming and a haven from the hustle and bustle of life.

I went to my first class (kundalini yoga + meditation) at Global Breath Studios yesterday and I was absolutely blown away. I cannot say enough good things about Aubrey. She is such a kind and caring person. You can tell she puts her heart into crafting her classes, and you can feel the passion that she has for helping others. I went into Global Breath Studios feeling anxious and off, and I left feeling centered and relaxed. The studio itself is so welcoming and visually stunning. It was such a beautiful space to practice in. I am so grateful for the experience I had yesterday and I will definitely be going back as often as I can. If you thinking about taking a class here, stop thinking and do it!

Global breath is a special place. It stands for community and for a holistic yoga practice. It is warm, supportive, fun, filled with big hearts and acceptance. And Bart’s classes kick my butt.

As soon as I walked up the steps and into the studio, I knew this would be my Yoga Studio! With Original brick walls and wood floors with large windows overlooking downtown, this space is special.....and of course, there are the teachers....give Global breath a try
