I had the most wonderful experience at Swan River Yoga, especially in a class led by Caroline. Her teaching style is incredibly peaceful and uplifting, creating a space that feels both calming and lighthearted. The class was deeply grounding, but we also shared moments of laughter, which made it feel even more connected and natural. When Caroline came over to help adjust my pose, I felt an immediate sense of calm—more than I had in weeks. I’ve been navigating some difficult life events, and for the first time in a while, I left class feeling at peace. That sense of stillness and presence is something I’ve struggled to sustain lately, but Caroline’s energy and guidance made it possible, even if just for that hour. I’m so grateful for this class and for Caroline’s teaching. If you're looking for a yoga practice that nurtures both body and mind, I highly recommend Swan River Yoga and taking a class with Caroline.
I absolutely love this space, and all the instructors are wonderful! There’s a variety of yoga styles offered, vinyasa, power flow, yin, sound , meditation. Attached to it is a wonderful vegan cafe. The building used to be a library, it still has a beautiful mural in the main yoga hall. I am so glad to have found this place after researching various yoga studios in New Orleans. I highly recommend Swan River Yoga Mandir! Thank you for making yoga available to me in such a lovely location!

I had a great experience at Swan River Yoga on Canal St recently. Being a beginner, I was a bit hesitant and the staff made me feel comfortable. Thanks!
