Started off 2026 with an amazing practice with Zoe. It was a lil bit toasty and a lil steamy~ exactly what I needed. Her breathwork was just right. I was a really good class. The space was beautiful and the staff was welcoming. I will definitely be back. Shout to my friend, Jamie who encouraged me to join her. Try new things, Try FREE TO BE ⚜️

My wife and I were visiting NOLA and we for sure wanted to practice while in town. We signed up for New Year’s Eve, and at some point in the day we realized that we weren’t going to make the class so we called the studio hoping to be credited a class instead of loosing our money. One of the owners kindly offered to save our class for the next time we were in town. We were both happy that we could have our classes saved, AND, TURNS OUT, we were able to use that class on New Year’s Day. We practiced with Alison and the class was just what we needed for the first day of the year— heart openers, a calm voice and a nice 45 min flow. We will definitely be back.

Free To Be Yoga Studio is hands down one of the best yoga spaces in New Orleans! The moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth and positive energy from the teachers and community. The classes are thoughtfully guided, challenging yet welcoming for all levels, and always leave me feeling grounded and uplifted. The instructors here truly care — they offer gentle adjustments, motivating words, and create a safe space to grow in your practice. The studio itself is beautiful, clean, and full of light. Whether it’s a sweaty power flow or a calming restorative session, every class feels intentional and inspiring. I’m so grateful to have found Free To Be — it’s become my little sanctuary in the city. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great yoga, community, and good vibes!

Having practiced yoga for 30+ years, I feel I've found an actual yoga home base with the Free to Be studio. If you're a local or an out of town visitor, new to yoga or long-time practioner, you are welcomed as a friend of the practice and the studio. This warm and generous community that Free to Be fosters is due fully to the instructors' kindness, creativity in, and knowledge of their yogic craft. Plus they are just really diverse and interesting folks, fun to chat with and learn from. The class schedule and varied class styles and lengths make it easy to practice throughout any given week - whether it be a 90-, 60-, or 45-minute class, in traditional Baptiste, level-up or restorative styles. There is something great for every yogi to choose from and experience 🧘🧘♀️🧘♂️

Free to be is fantastic and has for a long time been a staple of my work out regimen. The atmosphere is welcoming. The studio is comfortable and overall a really nice space to have a good practice. The real strength of FTB in my opinion is the teaching staff. They're phenomenal, and each instructor brings positive energy and puts their own sauce on the classes they teach. Pro tip: Saturday 8:30 class with Michelle. This session mixes HIT with traditional yoga. I've done a lot of workouts in NOLA and this is at the top of my list.
