Jaybird Studio — Yaletown

Expérience fantastique: Heated and dark really sets the vibe of this studio. You feel good when you are there and always get such a good workout. The instructors are great!

Expérience fantastique: It is such a nice place, I will come back for sure!

Expérience fantastique: My very first class at JayBird, and it was an incredible experience! I've always admired the studio from afar, but my friend Danita brought me in as a guest. The workout was one of the most intensely incredible workout I've ever done. Chloe's clear instructions and guidance made it efficient and enjoyable. Her energy and encouragement kept me motivated, pushing me to give 110%. By the end, I felt as if my booty has doubled in size ;-), I was so empowered and so proud of myself. Plus, the staff at the front were incredibly sweet and helpful. I loved every moment, Thank you!

Expérience fantastique: good space to get out of your head and focus on your body

Expérience fantastique: I tried the 2 week intro package at Jaybird and loved the routine it created! Great way to start the day with a sweat from either the Burn or the Build (especially on a cold day) and then ending the day with the Balance. I brought friends with varying backgrounds in fitness and they all loved it too!

Expérience fantastique: I would say Jaybird is a good place for beginners like myself. The dark room helps you to focus on yourself! I would recommend that the main moves are shown by the instructor at the start of the class while the room is still well lit so that we can easily watch and put them into practice during the class (this is being done by some instructors already)

Expérience fantastique: I absolutely love Jaybird! It is an excellent start to my morning. All the instructors are amazing, and the facility is stunning!

Expérience fantastique: The Burn is such a lovely class! Greta really puts her heart and soul into it. Expert pacing and cuing

Expérience fantastique: I think this is my favourite workout studio ever! Every class I’ve gone to has felt very nourishing - the instructors encourage connection to self and I find this such an awesome approach (and a great way to get a good workout!) vs. some of the classic “hustle”-type workouts that disconnect you from your body in exchange for intensity. The dark room and candlelight is relaxing so it almost tricks my brain into thinking it’s chill even when my muscles are shaking and there’s a pool of sweat around my mat. I also really enjoy the variety of classes: ranging from more classic mat Pilates, to yoga-inspired flow, to yin and self-massage, to even a sound bowl class! The instructor and front desk employees have all been wonderful! I’ve felt very welcome at the studio. I’ve attended the studio while visiting Vancouver for a couple months and will miss it very much when I leave (next week ). I would definitely recommend the studio!

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely obsessed with jaybirds burn class! Such a well rounded, empowering class. Always leave feeling so good!

Expérience fantastique: Great experience. Five stars to the Jaybird team. This is my favor place in the city now.

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is a 10/10 morning workout class, fav way to start my day. :)

Expérience fantastique: Fabulous! First time doing pilates and they've got me hook line and sinker. Loved the music set, loved the vibes, loved the burn. What a fabulous way to forget the world by sweating it out in a hot, dark room with no mirrors.

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird has been a transformative fitness experience for me. As someone who typically prefers solo training, I decided to try their 14-day trial. The experience far exceeded my expectations. The class methodology is exceptional, with instructors who bring an incredible energy and motivation that truly challenges and inspires. Each session has pushed me to work harder for my body while simultaneously providing a sense of mental and spiritual peace. I was so impressed that I immediately purchased a full membership. Thank you for creating a space that we all deserve - a place of transformation, challenge, and self-discovery.

Expérience fantastique: THE place to unwind and decompress or, if you want to start your day on the right foot! There are so many different classes to choose from so there’s something for everyone. 10/10 recommend!

Expérience fantastique: Really enjoyed all the classes I’ve taken so far at Jaybird. Highly recommend!

Expérience fantastique: I always have such an amazing experience! The instructors and staff are professional and the space is always clean.

Expérience fantastique: Probably one of the best classes I've attended in a lonnng time. Music was perfect, cues were perfect, the pace was perfect. Greta brings such authenticity to her teaching. I will definitely go back.

Expérience fantastique: Love the heat combined with the workout!

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is incredible! The atmosphere is amazing with candlelit lighting and all instructors guide you through such unique sequences that feel great for the body.

Expérience fantastique: My business partner & I have a ritual - once a month we do the Balance class to help us recover from the stressful time at work, stretch out all the tight spots, become new humans again. Highly recommend, it's so gentle and refreshing. Two days ago I also did the Burn for the first time, and I couldnt walk the next day, in a good way ;) Challenging and fun, but the atmosphere allows you to go at your own pace. Highly recommend

Expérience fantastique: My favourite hot yoga and infrared yoga in the city. Love the zen dark environment and music and free flowing class. Some of the best teachers teach here!.

Expérience fantastique: Just wrapped up a two-week trial here, and I loved it! The studio offers a refreshing change from hot yoga, with a darker room that lets you go at your own pace. The core-focused classes were a fantastic addition to my usual routine, and Chloe Y. was by far my favorite instructor—the workouts were challenging, especially for the abs! Definitely recommend checking it out!

Expérience fantastique: Love this place! My friends and I have been here many times and each instructor is great! Personal favourite is Greta. Such a welcoming environment to come to and focus for an hour no matter what else is happening in your life :)

Expérience fantastique: Candice is a dream. So welcoming and loving in all she shares- so full of wisdom and insights while we are moving and grooving our bodies.

Expérience fantastique: Great atmosphere to dive into self reflection while working yoga/pilates flow out in an heated, dark room. Perfect way to start a day.

Expérience fantastique: Great class with Chiara. Will go again.

Expérience fantastique: I love coming to jaybird! One of my favourite ways to start off my day. My favourite class is the burn.

Expérience fantastique: What a great experience as always! That has been changing my life. Is great to start your day or anytime an experience to make you feel in contact with your body and mind.

Expérience fantastique: Honestly the best workout in the city. It’s the perfect combo of sweat meets zen. Love it!

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is by far one of the most unique, centering and effective workouts. My favourite classes are the booty and the burn. Krystina and Mon G. are my favorite instructors in Vancouver. I highly recommend trying it out for a great sweat and lean toning, not to mention the best beats.

Expérience fantastique: great studio! megan is my favorite ❤️

Expérience fantastique: Jules’s class was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we started, I felt completely at ease and grounded. Your energy is so calming and motivating, creating the perfect environment to relax and challenge myself. The way you guided us through each pose, focusing on breath and alignment, really helped deepen my practice.

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is such a magical and therapeutic experience! I just tried Chloe Y’s class and it was truly the best sweat - would recommend to anyone!!

Expérience fantastique: Highly recommended. I thought pilates is not for me until I started going to Jaybird. It’s intense but rewarding - I love the atmosphere.

Expérience fantastique: Really cool concept! Enjoyed this! (Took 'the burn')

Expérience fantastique: Love Jaybird studios! I’ve only attended the bowls classes on a Sunday so far and adore the experience every time! It’s the perfect way to rest and reset! Would love if Jaybird provided additional props for comfort as lying on the mat can be tough on my back and neck at times. Regardless, I still highly recommend Jaybird to friends!

Expérience fantastique: One of my favourite classes at Jaybird is the balance class! I slipped a disc around 3 months ago and have had to switch up my whole exercise routine. The balance class has really helped my body throughout its healing process and I always walk away feeling extra relaxed!

Expérience fantastique: Obsessed with Jaybird

Expérience fantastique: First time for me and it’s absolutely fantastic place. I took a class called “The Burn” with Chloe. I love the concept. Definitely a super clean place. Love the idea that everyone is leaving their shoes at the entrance. All members are very polite. Definitely, I’ll try to make it like a once a week treat to myself.

Expérience fantastique: I love working out at Jaybird! I always feel amazing after every class, and all the instructors are fantastic!

Expérience fantastique: I always love Jaybird and how mindfulness is incorporated into every class!

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely LOVE this studio! Wish they would open one up in Kelowna!! Highly recommend checking it out!

Expérience fantastique: A studio like none other. I especially love the Burn (mat Pilates), Balance (yin), and Bowls (meditation) classes. I feel much stronger in my mind and body after going here consistently for a year or so! Definitely recommend! Ps the Burn is always hard haha but love that challenge!!

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird combines all the workout aspects I love and with Ariel’s special way of holding space, this is a workout I can see myself coming back for daily. Ariel is just the OG movement teacher and my personal fave, how she designs her classes, the energy she puts in and how she motivates a whole room is simply one-of-kind. Whenever I‘m in Vancouver I just need to attend one of her classes because I always leave stronger and more inspired. Jaybird is a 10/10 recommendation when it comes to space the being created, the workout, the lovely people who work there and the customer service orientation.

Expérience fantastique: I recently had the pleasure of experiencing Jaybird Studio, and it exceeded all my expectations. The environment is immaculately clean, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere from the moment you step inside. The studio offers a fantastic range of classes, including hot yoga, burn, and balance, all of which are expertly guided by the incredibly talented Ms. Val. Her energy and attention to detail ensure that every session is both challenging and rewarding, regardless of your fitness level. The studio's amenities are top-notch, with an excellent shower area and fully equipped locker rooms that include towel and mat services, making it easy to transition from workout to the rest of your day. I especially appreciate the early class start times, which fit perfectly into my schedule, and the convenient, easy parking. Overall, Jaybird Studio provides a holistic fitness experience that is both physically and mentally enriching. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to rejuvenate, strengthen, and find balance.

Expérience fantastique: I recommend this place to everyone. I have taken almost 10 classes at Jaybird and every single class has been an experience in and of itself. The staff and ambiance are just beautiful! I always look forward to going every week! If you have an opportunity to go I HIGHLY suggest Greta as an instructor!`

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely love this place! From the dark, relaxing room, to the good speakers and of course the incredible teachers. I’ve never been to a better studio and can’t imagine there being one!

Expérience fantastique: I always rave about Jaybird!! The combination of a dark lit, heated room and loud music is unlike any other studio Ive been to! “The Burn” is my fav class & I always leave feeling like I had a killer workout!

Expérience fantastique: Great vibe and atmosphere! The room is electronic free, which really let you get out of your head and shut the world off for a while. The instructors are clear and helpful when your form is off. I'm a beginner with Yoga and I was honestly a little intimidated in my first couple classes but it's such an awesome and welcoming environment that I got over that pretty quickly. Thank you all for my weekend dose of calm - really helps me reset for the week ahead.

Expérience fantastique: Fabulous experience. Mon was a kind, thoughtful and inspiring guide. Loved the warm, dark and cosy environment. As a first time visitor, I apprecited the relaxed welcome at front desk and explanation of everything. Movement studios can be intimidating at first, so it definitely makes a difference to how the class is received. Thank you too for taking time for a few friendly words at the end, creates a lovely community feel. Looking forward to being back!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve tried a lot of different workout classes in Vancouver and this is my favourite. There is a great variety when it comes to types of classes and teachers to best suit the needs you have in the moment. I also really appreciate the cleanliness of the facility and the overall environment. I was quite disappointed once my week intro pass ended as my body felt great and I felt like I could keep doing it everyday.

Expérience fantastique: Jolene was a great instructor and I enjoyed her class very much. Her guidance through the class and direction throughout. I will recommend this class to others

Expérience fantastique: I love everything about this place! The vibe, the music, the workout, the sweat! I always leave feeling energized and happy. It’s an instant mood-lifter

Expérience fantastique: I used to be too shy to do workout classes and so my friends recommended Jaybird to me. It has boosted my confidence and is a staple in my routine. The atmosphere and the classes are so supportive and confidence boosting. It is really a time to get out of my own head. I only have amazing things to say about Jaybird!

Expérience positive: Great workout with a variety of different classes! The exercise room can be a bit tight, and the change rooms are small, but one of the few places I continue to go back to regularly! Feels very inclusive and welcoming.

Expérience négative: I live across the street from Jaybird. I would love to attend classes, however the studio gives no consideration to scent allergies. The smell inside is so intense, it even wafts out into the streets. It's not incense, it's like very strong scented candles or non natural odors. Millions of people have scent allergies, I wish places like Jaybird would consider that for everyone.

Expérience fantastique: One of the best studios I've ever been to! The studio is an experience in itself and paired with the fun music, exercises, and instructor guidance Jaybird is a blast.

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird changed my life! It’s true! The teachers, the flow and energy in this space is one of a kind. I love how I feel emotionally and physically after each and every class. Stay in the class, listen to your body and adjust accordingly. It’s dark no one is judging you and it’s an inclusive space. Get out of your head and go!

Expérience fantastique: Love love love coming here! I only started attending Jaybird a month ago to add to my routine. All instructors are very nice and would give you modifications, encouraging you to move how your body feels best. I also like that it's dark inside and I'm able to make my workout truly my own! Staff is also so welcoming and friendly and it smells really nice as well :)

Expérience fantastique: I love Jaybird!!! A beautiful time to go inward!! Definitely go to one of the classes run by Candice that woman is incredible!! ✨

Expérience fantastique: Amazing hot studio with excellent classes that both challenge and nourish you. Love this place!

Expérience positive: The classes are great! I enjoy the dark room and the instructors give great instruction. Of course the room is hot, but not so hot that it’s unbearable. I would recommend this place! Note that the change room is quite squishy! The lockers at the front entrance are much better to use.

Expérience fantastique: Obsessed with this place. So great to get out of your mind and into your body. Have made it almost a daily habit. The instructors are so good. Highly HIGHLY recommend!

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is such an awesome workout that feels like meditative invitation to go inward and deeply (re)connect with your body. The heat and the darkness are both powerful offerings to be in and listen to what your body needs. My partner and I love our healthy dates to Jaybird

Expérience fantastique: Such an incredible space with a class for everyone, and various instructors that best fit your fitness/learning styles. I am most appreciative for the fantastic customer service, and how everyone in the Jaybird community is so kind and welcoming. My favourite studio in Vancouver by far.

Expérience fantastique: Everything at Jaybird is welcoming, the teachers, staff, classmates. The heat, darkness, music, you can truly connect in a different way. If you're like me and just getting back into it or are taking your first class, go for The Balance. Their Spotify Playlists also get me through the work days.

Expérience fantastique: I’m addicted to Jaybird! I've been going to this studio for a while now, and I have to say that I always leave feeling refreshed, revitalized, and ready to take on the day. The classes they offer are top-notch, and the instructors are knowledgeable, motivating, and passionate about what they do. The staff at the front desk are always friendly, welcoming, and helpful - they truly make you feel like part of the Jaybird family. And let's not forget about the studio itself - it's always spotless and well-maintained, which is so impressive given the high volume of classes they offer. But what really gets me is the Burn class... WOW. It's an exhilarating, sweat-dripping, heart-pumping experience that will leave you feeling like a total rockstar. I highly recommend Jaybird ❤️

Expérience fantastique: I just completed the 7 day trial pass and absolutely loved everything about Jaybird. The music is amazing, the workout is hard but great and the instructors are the best! I especially love the dark room and lack of mirrors, it really allows me to connect to myself even further. I can’t wait to go back!!

Expérience fantastique: Love love this studio!

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is honestly my new favourite workout!! I leave each time feeling peaceful from the slower pace and deep breathing but also leave already feeling a bit sore from how good the workout is! 10/10 recommend.

Expérience positive: I loved coming to this studio prior to the pandemic and was gutted when I had to move away from the neighbourhood. When my usual studio closed down last month, I decided to buy a 5-class pack at Jaybird and commute in for classes. I'm so glad Jaybird has found success in the past few years, but I felt claustrophobic in the now very crowded studio. The mats are packed too close together, to the point where I can feel the sweat flicking off my neighbours' bodies and I knock into them every time a movement requires an extension. The locker rooms are also much too small for the traffic this studio gets. I also find the music in some classes too loud, to the point where my ears were ringing after classes. It takes away from my ability to listen to the instructors' guidance, which is key when the room is dark and I can't see their movements. The instructions and sequencing of poses for some of the classes are also very fast-paced and difficult to follow, which compounds the confusion. My favourite class is the Balance, which seems to have the 'Goldilocks' formula of appropriate levels of sound and easy to follow guidance. Although I can't justify a membership at this time, I plan to come from time to time for a Balance class.

Expérience fantastique: I love that the classes are done in darkness so I can focus on my own movement and pace. My favorite classes are The Build and The Balance, which allows me to slow down after a long day and move in a way that serves me. The heated room helps relax my muscles so I always feel refreshed after a class at Jaybird.

Expérience fantastique: I love it here. It’s a whole sensory experience and one of the best full body workouts I’ve tried in Vancouver!

Expérience fantastique: I have enjoyed being welcomed into this space and being able to learn practice at my own pace as I explore and test my limits. There is great variety to classes and the instructors are skilled, patient, and enthusiastic. I moved from trial to monthly quickly, simply because it’s such a fantastic place ✨

Expérience positive: I have tried a few hot yoga class and Jaybird is the one that stuck with me. I like that they have dark room, it allows me to focus on my listening and removes all distractions. I like that they provide the mats, towels, so I don't have to carry that. Due to the heat, my muscle are relaxed and I can push myself a little more challenging yoga pose, without being scared of any injury. I like that there are two people who are checking you in, so it doesn't get crowded. I would like a couple of more showers especially for the ladies room because it gets pretty crowded and you have to wait.

Expérience fantastique: I fell in love with your yoga and I highly recommend the bird and the burn classes with Monika. And the balance sound class, which focuses on the chakras. Overall great / XOXO

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is a place where I go to calm my mind and deepen my connection to my soul. It’s my sanctuary of personal healing and development. I love it very much and so grateful for this wonderful community!

Expérience fantastique: I love the burn and the build classes at Jaybird. Overall the environment is super therapeutic. The room is dark so feel like I can be completely present. It’s also hot so perfect for when I want a sweaty workout!

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is a transcendent experience! I went in thinking I was going to a Pilates class, little did I know that I was not only going to be strengthening my body, but my spirit and my mind. A beautiful cleansing practise! 10/10!

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely love attending classes at Jaybird! The studio is incredibly welcoming and allows for an excellent space to reconnect with yourself and move your body in the best way possible!

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is a studio that feels inclusive, safe and extremely accommodating. There’s no judgement, I love how the lights are dimmed so I can focus on my own practice and movement. It stands alone compared to any other yoga studio.

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is my happy place, and I always leave feeling so great. My favourite classes are the Burn, and the Booty — I find them both very challenging which I like! Ayla Barker is such a great instructor and I find I am always taking her classes!

Expérience fantastique: What a beautiful and unique experience with a yoga studio! My sister lives in Vancouver and has been telling me all about this studio so naturally I had to come and check it out! I was not disappointed. The classes take place fully in the dark (with the exception of a few dim battery operated candles along the walls of the studio. The dark studio really offers something for everyone at any experience level! For those who may be anxious to start yoga, this is perfect, as it’s not about looking at what others are doing or comparing your self, and no need to worry about someone watching you - because it’s all in the dark! I found it really helped me stay focused and connected to my own body. No distractions around the room, just doing what feels good and right in my body. Surrendering to the experience. I went to the Balance class on a Friday evening which included a sound bath and it was AMAZING! I only wish it was longer! The bath used a Neptune gong, and singing bowls, as well as a few other instruments. There is a small change room with a few showers. I do wish the lights in here were dimmed so after class it wasn’t so harsh on your eyes

Expérience fantastique: This is my favourite places to sweat! I really like the darkness, the music and the infrared heat! A must have in your daily routine!

Expérience fantastique: This class was my first one with Ariel and at Jaybird. When I tell you how MOVING it was I truly mean it. I cried three times, laughed, danced, sweat and learned so much about myself in only 55 minutes. 12/10 would recommend and I’m already booking my next class. THANK YOU ARIEL AND TEAM AT JAYBIRD!

Expérience fantastique: I was never able to find a workout routine that I could stick to and enjoy until I tried Jaybird. I got immediately hooked within my trial week and haven't stopped since. The workouts are fun and always changing you're never stuck repeating the same workout). And wow, do they push you to your limits! All the instructors are very nice and happy to help if needed. My personal favorites are Krystina and Mon G. I always find them easy to follow, the most fun, and they make me fight for my life on the mat while enjoying it at the same time :D I've attended 25 classes as of today, and I am noticing the difference in how I feel physically, plus seeing a lot of improvements. My top picks for classes are The Burn (it actually burns) and The Booty (it also burns). I really like the concept of exercising in a dark room with no mirrors as it helps to ease your mind from worrying about how you look while exercising or comparing yourself to others. I always leave the studio in a great mood, and my mental health has drastically improved since I started going.

Expérience fantastique: I have to say this is one of my favourite places to sweat. You get such a good burn in any of the classes, the infrared heat soothes your body, and the loud melodic music forces you out of your anxious mind. A must have in your routine!

Expérience fantastique: I really enjoyed my Jaybird class. The space was clean and very calming and the staff were very nice! Looking forward to being back at Jaybird.

Expérience fantastique: Atmosphere and flow is just right. The balance of candlelight with intentional focus feels empowering - not to mention it’s a killer workout!

Expérience fantastique: I just started doing the 6am classes and I LOVE it! The class are called The Burn, and they do burn but in a satisfying way. It’s a great workout. Super friendly instructors and staff too. Thanks Jaybird!

Expérience fantastique: Jaybird is more than a workout. It grounds us and allows our body to connect fully with our mind and our soul. Being in the room is almost a cathartic experience. It’s the best hour of my day.

Expérience fantastique: The environment that Jaybird creates is incredible. The dark room with soft candle light is the best disconnect from the daily grind. The instructors are so kind and caring. The movements flow and allow space for adjustments.

Expérience fantastique: I love Jaybird the instructors and the community is so positive and delightful. I truly get the best workout there, plus it smells fantasatic!

Expérience positive: Very friendly and uplifting environment. I always feel so much better physically and mentally after my classes!

Expérience fantastique: Love this place. Such a spiritual yoga practice. I’m hooked!

Expérience fantastique: I truly love this studio. The instructor’s calming guidance and studio’s serene ambiance make you wanna come back. Overall great experience.

Expérience fantastique: Love jaybird. I only go to the Soundbaths but they’re the best in Vancouver so far.

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely love jaybird! Especially the Balance class w Pei

Expérience fantastique: I did not know what to expect at Jaybird; however, I quickly fell in love with their workouts in the IR heat. In the darkened room by candle light, I feel free of any self judgement or anxiety and move with the flow. I went to 6/7 classes in my first week. The instructors are supportive and very encouraging!
