Wild Heart Yoga

5604 Bee Caves Rd, Austin, TX 78746

When Wild Heart Yoga opened its doors in December, Austin got its first chance to experience owner Marybeth Brady’s bohemian vision. With the help of her husband, a skilled woodworker, she brought the relaxing vibe she had always dreamed about to life. The Westlake yoga studio strives to capture the creative and artistic spirit of Austin with unique touches, like a handcrafted barn door, colorful rugs, and a boutique that showcases local designers, snacks, and drinks. Music is also at the core of Wild Heart’s mission, so their outdoor yoga deck frequently comes alive with energizing dance classes. Don’t worry about the Texas heat, though—the shady grove of oak trees surrounding the deck will keep you cool. The studio also offers indoor yoga experiences, including Vinyasa, Power, Align, Foundation and Sculpt classes, with discounts for students and teachers. No matter what class you choose, though, what’s most important to the team at Wild Heart is that you let go and be yourself in the free, eccentric environment they’ve built a community in.
