In addition to my running and gym I want to join a Yoga studio.

I need one in North or Northwest Austin area, so that I can easily go after work and not drive too far on the weekends when I'm home.
I have narrowed down to 2 options.
Yoga Grove which offers Bikram Yoga
or
Yoga Yoga which seems to offer every class but Bikram

So to all my fellow Austinites out there which studio have you been to or heard good things about? Is there another prominent studio in North or Northwest Austin that I should know about.I need some help in deciding!
Non Austin Blog friends my question for you is should I Bikram or not?
Also Kristin at Iowa Girl Eats is holding a Pure Bar giveaway go here to enter.
My heart also goes out to one of my favorite bloggers Meghann of Graduate Meghann whose dog Abbie passed away after a bad reaction to medicine.

sounds PERFECT!!! i wish we were closer to Austin!!
BIKRAM. BIKRAM. BIKRAM. I am bias since I work at a bikram stuido. But the benefits and feeling you get after a class,for me, outweigh other types of yoga I have tried. Plus the heat is much better for your muscles to stretch than in the cold. You're likely to hurt yourself more. Birkam also works the inside organs asa well as outside the body. No other yoga does this. Any questions you might have, email me : )
I go to Yogagroove & it's great! To be honest, Bikram is the only kind of yoga I've tried so I'm kind of partial...still though, as someone completely new to yoga, I've loved going to Yogagroove. The instructors are all wonderful & very helpful..especially if you're new.
They have a really great introductory offer too...a whole month of unlimited yoga for $28! Definitely worth at least checking it out for a month.
I don't know much about Austin or yoga, but I wanted to check on Kingston! My Sadie gets that sometimes, and the vet calls it Puppy Acne, puts her on an antibiotic, and voila! All clear!
Sorry, can't tell you anything about Bikram Yoga - I just do Jivamukti Yoga and i really really LOVE it...
Just can't imagine to live without Yoga... :-)
One of my friends studies Bikram at Yoga Groove and she loves it. Plus, it's close to Zen and Alamo Drafthouse!
i'm debating on whether or not to do yoga too!! i need something to calm me down and relax me! i have free passes to yoga yoga so i'm going to try it out!!
i have friends who are Yogis/yoginis there so I'm kinda biased but since i haven't tried it yet i don't knoww!
can't wait to see you at some of our next meet ups!
bikram!!!!
I've always wanted to try Birkam! I hear it is sooo good for you!
Um, I cried for Meghann!!! Poor Abbie :(
I like bikram, but, the only thing I don't like is that it's a pretty set class with the poses, etc. I like to change it up a bit.
I looooove yoga--you'll enjoy it no matter what class you take (I think)
I took it at the studio close to 45th and Guadalupe (in the Triangle) and really liked the classes! They offer every kind (I believe).
I took a class at Yoga Yoga once, and I liked it, but I was new and I never went back. So I honestly don't have much of an opinion about that place, but I know there are a lot so it's convenient. :)
i wish we could be exercise buddies...
