NAMASTE
Welcome to our Wellness Community!
GETTING STARTED
Take a look at our schedule.
We offer Yoga, Barre Fusion & Trapeze Yoga Classes.
Our Intro classes are a great place to start if you would like to learn the basics before joining our other classes.
Our standard classes are "all-levels."
The instructor will offer options during class for people to make it more challenging or feel more accessible.
Choose a class you would like to take.
From the schedule you can register for the class and choose a pass.
The New Member Pass is a great way to start.
It's $49 for 4 weeks of unlimited classes
WHO WE ARE
Kula, pronounced Koo-la is a Sanskrit word meaning
"community of the heart."
Kula's warm & relaxed vibe has brought a rich community together.
Whatever path you've taken to get here- you're HERE!
We appreciate and welcome you!
Our classes are filled with students of all ages, backgrounds and abilities.
Come to class with an open mind and an open heart. Leave your mat feeling refreshed and inspired to go into the larger community holding the feeling of Kula in your spirit.
The word "Kula" is a Sanskrit word meaning, "community of the heart."
In 2017 when Kate opened the studio her intension was to have a wellness community that welcomed, accepted and appreciated everyone as they are on the mat today. When they leave and return back to the larger community, they return being their best self. Collectively, our larger community is better for every person who makes time for self-care.
The city Worcester, where we are located, declares itself- "The Heart of the Commonwealth."
For these reasons choosing the name 'Kula' and using a heart in our logo made perfect sense.
The color green was chosen because it's perceived to be calming and it's associated with the heart chakra.
MISSION
To make our space feel like home. You are welcome and accepted here. We build a sense of community within our space so that people can go back to the larger community holding the sense of Kula in their hearts.
Our hope is you find what works for you. Move your body in a way that makes you feel good. Yoga is not “one size fits all”. Kula Yoga & Barre offers a variety of classes from the athletic to restful. We believe wellness is for EVERY body. It doesn't matter if you can't touch your toes, or maybe you feel like you can't sit still. You are welcome and accepted here.
We are all meeting on the mat together to find a sense of wholeness, even if it’s for a few brief minutes.

YOU CAN DO THIS!
Sometime our nerves can get the best of us. Taking the first step to come in for class can be the most difficult. Once that hurdle is crossed, class is a piece of cake!
At Kula you're always encouraged to listen to your body. Only do what you can. There's no judgement for taking a rest or modifying a pose. You don't have to be flexible or in great shape to start. We all have our first day on the mat!
