The Scene – Owner Anne Phyfe Palmer wants students to explore a variety of hatha yoga styles under one roof, which is not an option at many other studios in Seattle. Ashtanga, Iyengar, kundalini, prenatal and postnatal yoga are some of the classes she offers. High ceilings and hardwood floors lend a warm feel. Adding comfort: a water cooler and a changing room. – – The Workout – You'll get what Palmer calls a "down-to-earth" yoga experience. Translation: Newcomers won't be intimidated, but classes will be enriching and challenging. In the gentle prenatal classes,…

8 Limbs is a leader in philanthropy and community
by Genessa at Citysearch
8 Limbs Yoga Centers is a brilliant yoga studio. Besides from having fantastic teachers, Anne Phyfe-Palmer has created a true yogic community based on philanthropy, generosity, caring and love. 8 Limbs Yoga Centers was a major donor to the Equalityoga event on June 27th. Maygen McGrew of 8 Limbs was one of the lead instructors and Anne Phyfe-Palmer acted as an event advisory. With her support it was easy to engage other Seattle yoga studios. It's amazing to work with and practice in a studio that leads with it's values by creating loving and supportive community. This commitment ripples throughout the Seattle community. We are blessed to have this business in our city.
- Pros: Amazing instructors, amazing values based business
- Cons: none

Best yoga in the city
by kareno75 at Citysearch
I was not a yoga person but was very curious about it. I signed up for the beginner series with Jenny about 3 years ago and now I am hooked. I have not taken a class I don't like. Douglas is definitely my favorite. 8 limbs is a non-competitive environment that provides a lot of stress relief after work. The gym is not for me and 8 limbs provides a way for me to get my exercise and calm my mind. I cannot recommend it enough!

Excellent instructors, relaxing & meditative spot to enhance your mind/body and spirit in an urban setting
by vuduzombie at Citysearch
8 Limbs is an oasis of goodness for the mind and body in the heart of Capitol Hill (their original and most popular location). The instructors are highly skilled, knowledgable, caring and nurturing. I've been practicing here for 2+ years and have grown immensely because of it. Pricing is average for occassional practitioners and a good deal for regulars (2+ times a week). Their new customer deal (2 months for $99) is a steal and will provide you enough time start to see the benefits. They have a fair number of instructors and class/time offerings at their three locations for you to sample and find your preferences. The Cap Hill location can tend to be a bit noisy from the street and neighbors, but it allows one to work on maintaining focus in the reality of a world with minor distractions all around you. Overall, the 8 Limbs team has created a relaxing, noncompetitive, non-pretentious environment for yoga students of all abilities. Highly Recommended.
- Pros: multiple locations, variety of classes, GREAT instructors, good pricing for regulars.
- Cons: 2+ years and no cons worth mentioning

8 Limbs is great
by dstrok at Citysearch
I've been going to 8 Limbs for about half a year and love it! I was not a very flexible person and while I loved going to yoga classes in my gym, it still intimidated me since I wasn't that flexible. Now that I've been going to 8 limbs about 3 times a week, I feel better, I am more flexible, and enjoy yoga classes. The teachers are very friendly and really "teach" the poses rather than lead the class.
- Pros: Good Class times, friendly staff, Apparatus provided
- Cons: Off street parking, some classes full
