True Light Yoga

I recently discovered True Light Yoga, and it’s safe to say I’m absolutely obsessed! This studio is a hidden gem that offers an incredible variety of classes to suit every mood, skill level, and fitness goal. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was welcomed by a serene atmosphere, friendly staff, and a vibe that instantly put me at ease. Their class lineup is nothing short of fabulous. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned yogi, there’s something for everyone. I started with their *Slow Flow* class w/ Niki , which was the perfect blend of relaxation and stretching—ideal for unwinding on a mid-Saturday morning. Then I tried their *Buddha Boot Camp* session, and wow, what a workout! The instructor guided us through dynamic sequences that left me feeling strong, energized, and accomplished. For something totally unique, I often join their 6 pm *Workshop Wednesday* class, which is different each week to keep it fresh! Don't forget to try their *Yoga Church* w Rachael on Sunday mornings at 10 am. This class has a little bit of everything: short mediation, some chanting, slow movement to begin, peak in the middle and a little something to get your heart rate up! This is a can't miss! The variety keeps things fresh and exciting—I never get bored, and I love that I can tailor my practice to whatever I need that day. The instructors are phenomenal too—knowledgeable, encouraging, and always ready to offer modifications so everyone feels included. The studio itself is spotless, with beautiful natural light and all the props you could need. They even have a little tea lounge area where I like to linger after class, sipping herbal tea and soaking in the calm. True Light Yoga has truly become my sanctuary, and I can’t recommend it enough to anyone looking to elevate their wellness game. Five stars doesn’t even do it justice—this place is pure magic!

I was instructed to come to the studio by a colleague. I had several interactions prior with Rachael that all were all warm and welcoming. She had encouraged me to come to her yoga church offering. On the first day, I was greeted by a sweet girl behind the desk who made me immediately feel comfortable. The space is clean, and was clearly designed from a place of detail and love. Her class left me feeling like she was speaking to me personally and gave me a new sense of self. Sundays and yoga church continue to be a weekly non-negotiable for me. There is something about this space, the offerings and the community that has formed that is better than anywhere else. Try an offering, you won't be disappointed.

TLY is not your average yoga studio. Rachael’s intentions for creating community are evident; the atmosphere is welcoming and friendly and she gets strangers to talk to each other. The classes are workouts for mind, body, and soul like no other; while there’s acceptance for whatever we bring and however we show up to the practice, the classes simultaneously challenge in all these areas. It has become an essential part of my week. I can’t say enough about this place and am grateful to be a part of it!

True Light Yoga connected to my inner light in a way I had been missing in my practice. I was given the opportunity to practice and then connect with community. It was a pleasure. I will be back.

You know when you walk into a space and just think, “yes”? I’m visiting OCNJ this week and was a little nervous to try a new place as I’m quite out of practice. As soon as I stepped into the studio, I was surrounded by such great energy. Before your first class they have you write down any injuries you may be dealing with and pass it to the instructor. You also pick up a “yes” or “no” card to place at the front of your mat to signal if you want hands-on assists. I really appreciated the privacy of those details, as I’ve been to studios where it can be intimidating speaking in front of the whole class. The space is quite large, beautifully sunny, and all were extremely welcoming. They even let me borrow a mat since I forgot mine! It’s clear Rachel is cultivating a community alongside a yoga studio here. Love it. I’ll definitely be back whenever I’m in town and hope to squeeze a few more classes in with my “new student” pass this week.
