Tejas Yoga

Feature by Bloomspot Staff Writers

In their mission to create a sacred environment and authentic yoga community, Tejas Yoga co-founders Jim Bennitt and James Tennant share knowledge derived from their own experiences with aspiring yogis. Under their renowned instruction, explore boundaries and realize your fullest potential both physically and mentally.

At this intimate South Loop studio, like-minded practitioners embrace a variety of yoga traditions and methodologies, pleasantly supporting each person's personal journey to balance and health. Tejas Yoga does not ascribe to a particular style of yoga; instead, a vibrant tapestry of mindfulness materializes from a mixture of hatha yoga, asanas, pranayama, and Ayurveda. Meditate, breathe deeply and meaningfully, and mold your body into fulfilling postures that elicit calm.
