This is my favorite yoga spot. Ive been going regularly after getting hooked on their holiday/December special! While it may not be the swankiest studio, they have all the yoga props you need. Heres what I like about Yoga Hillsboro: *Excellent instructors: these folks know their stuff. Marie is also a physical therapist so she understands injuries and can modify the poses for your ability. This is way way above the taking-yoga-at-a-gym caliber of instructor. I realized I had been doing some of the poses wrong-- its finally clicking! *Non-competitive: unlike a lot of other yoga classes Ive been to, this class is really low key, uncompetitive. Class mates are nice and understanding and I never feel pressure to do more or impress others. With that said, I can always get a challenge too! *Convenient location: right in the middle of downtown Hillsboro, so I can go to the farmers market or other spots after class. Never have trouble parking either. *Convenient class times: many of the classes are scheduled after work times so I can fit in classes easy *Generous & simple class make up policy: if you miss a class you can visit a different class during the term. *Good pricing: $80 for one class a week for the 10 week term, so $8 per class. This is better or on par with other yoga places, but easier to make up the classes and a better experience.

Brant is a caring, mindful and knowledgeable yoga, meditation and MBSR instructor; and small business owner of Yoga Hillsboro. You will always feel welcome and comfortable in any of the his classes. Originally, I started practicing yoga as support after a back surgery but it soon became a way of life and expanded to regular meditation practice after completing Brants MBSR program in 2010. I was a regular student for 8+ years and continue to attend MBSR alumni events (I moved, otherwise I would still go there a couple times a week for yoga). Yoga Hillsboro is a humble studio with a thriving community of students that always return because of the consistent and approachable classes for any level of practice.

I took the MBSR program with Brant and have continued with the studio for yoga. It was a great program for me... and I am not a very touchy-feely- warm and fuzzy sort of person... a bit of a skeptic. I committed to being open to the experience and found it to be great- helped with my general stress and I sleep better. Be aware that the building is old and outdated and this is a no-frills environment... but youre not there to study interior design and your eyes are often closed. Perfect for the needed application. My 15-year-old daughter also took the class with me, she got less out of it than I did, but it was still valuable.

I took the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction course from Brant several years ago and it affirmed my practice in meditation and gave me new skills that helped change my orientation to the present moment. I learned how to better be present in my interactions with others, how to pause and notice before jumping into an habitual reaction. Brants MBSR course also led me to become a teacher of mindfulness because I saw the power in sharing the practice with others. Brant is a kind and gentle man who has vast experience. It seems his goal is to share that selflessly with others to make the world a better place.

This place is much more than a yoga studio, to me, it feels like a warm, welcoming community and a safe place. Brant is a genuine, compassionate person who works with you to establish the best and most comfortable practices for you. The classes and MBSR course provide great opportunities to explore your yoga practice, different types of movement, and a quiet place to consider new pathways as life takes us in different directions than wed expected. I highly recommend Yoga Hillsboro and the MBSR practice. Try a drop in yoga class and check it out!

A great place to stretch and relax. The teachers, Brant and Marie are amazing people and amazing teachers. I love to relax and unwind after work and even spend time with my mom at Yoga Hillsboro. It is all around a wonderful place, I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Yoga Hillsboro. Male/Female/Young/Elderly/Pregnant/Inexperienced they have something for everyone.

When I added Brant’s Intermediate Yoga class to my weekly exercise schedule, my flexibility and energy improved. Along with the meditation practices I learned in the MBSR class, yoga has become an integral part of my fitness and stress reduction activities. I would recommend the classes at Yoga Hillsboro for anyone wishing to enhance their health and sense of wellbeing.

Having been to several yoga studios in the greater Portland area and having been through the Hillsboro Yoga MBSR program I found Brants teaching to be exceptionally well balanced, down-to-earth and engaging. Brants experience and knowledge is considerable. He teaches by presence and example.

I took Brants class (MBSR ) a few years ago and found it to be very helpful in learning how to accept (even welcome) difficult emotions. Brants voice is very calming; even now, if I think of his voice, I find myself settling down and relaxing. I highly recommend this class.

Brant is a talented yoga instructor and leader for MBSR! I have worked with him for 12 years, and continue learning. He is encouraging, honest, and creates an atmosphere of trust and growth, both physical and emotional.
