Owner Danielle Mazzurco opened HIP Yoga nearly 3 years ago, bringing her love of yoga and pilates to the community while offering flexible schedules and affordable packages for everyone. The success of the studio prompted a move to a bigger space less than 4 months ago, which allows for a greater selection to meet students’ needs.

In addition to a variety of yoga classes, the studio offers mat pilates classes that work the entire “powerhouse,” Barre Fusion classes (which incorporate ballet and Pilates style workouts), Zumba and Kids Yoga. Workshops on meditation, nutrition and personal training, plus summer bootcamps are also available.

New additions include a workshop on bellydancing, which will be held on Saturday, June 7 from 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. “This will be a fun and sassy class!” states Mazzurco. “You will discover the beauty of bellydancing and learn basic techniques including shimmies, movements from torso, hips and legs, while learning to develop strong core in an elegant way.” Also, to kick off summer, the studio is hosting Warrior Cardio Toning on Thursday, June 19 from 7:30-9:00 p.m. with a live DJ.

For those who wish to become instructors, the studio also offers teacher training programs including a Yoga Alliance Approved Kids Yoga Teacher Training Program, which will be June 20-22. Mazzurco invites everyone to visit HIP on Division Street on June 14 as it celebrates it Grand Opening Party.

Location: 2 Division Street, Suite 6, 2nd Floor, Somerville. For complete class schedules and details visit HIPYogastudio.com or Facebook.com/hipyogastudio. 908-334-3797.
