Sankofa Yoga & Wellness Center

Fantastic experience: I've been a member/taking classes here for about 8 months and I truly love this place. All of the instructors are so kind and welcoming. It's a wonderful place to learn without judgement if you're new to yoga, and such a safe, comfortable in general. Every class i've take.m and every person i've met here have been nothing less than AMAZING!!

Fantastic experience: I attended the Y12SR class for the first time and it was amazing. It's a perfect class for people dealing with addiction or for the people who have friends or family going through addiction. The instructor Colleen was amazing. She made me feel really comfortable seeing how this was my first time attending this class. By the end of the class my mind and body was in a relaxed, calm, peaceful state. I highly recommended this class. Thank you so much Colleen! You will see me again.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I had a Thai massage at Sankofa and it was incredible. Alicia was caring, kind and professional. It's very clear the owners and staff want to make the entire experience as welcoming as possible, with lots of little details to make everyone feel at home and special. I will definitely be back!

Fantastic experience: All I can say is I absolutely Love the place! Sankofa has become a family to me. Their classes, workshops and informational sessions are top notch. I always feel welcome and at home. Thank You Sankofa for giving the community high quality service.

Fantastic experience: My rating is actually 5+++! Earlier this year my therapist recommended trying some of Sankofa's wellness services (i.e. reiki, reflexology, etc) to support my continued growth. I had been to Sankofa before for yoga and loved the energy of the space so revisiting was a no-brainer. I have had both Womb Reiki (w/ Tamisha) Reflexology/Sound Bath (w/ Alicia) and when I tell you that the work has been mind blowing in the best ways possible, it is NOT an understatement. The care I feel every time I walk through the doors and the healing I feel when I leave is nothing short of magical. I am so grateful for the space Tamisha has created with her team and highly recommend Sankofa for your wellness/healing needs.

Fantastic experience: Amazing service!

Fantastic experience: Last night I took a class at Sankofa Yoga Studio for the very first time and what an experience. The class was a specialty class entitled Y12SR ....taught by instructor Colleen. I have taken a few yoga classes but never a format like this. I didn't know what to expect. It was my first in- person class since the onset of covid and I was cautious. I stepped inside the studio and was greeted personally by Colleen. The studio had a warm and pleasing personality and the most peaceful aroma of Nag Champa filled the air. All of the covid rules and regulations were in place, which put me and the entire class at ease. There were several students online taking the class via Zoom as well. The class was well attended but safe. The online and in-person students all participated in a group reading and discussion about "the breath" and I found it wonderful to engage in conversation with my like-minded peers about the benefits of mindful breathing. This was followed by an amazing yoga practice which was exquisitely taught and left me feeling both relaxed and empowered. I found the instructor to be one of the best so far. From the inside out she exuded professionalism, kindliness, peace and joy. She had a refreshing sense of humor, warm natured and personable. This instructor spoke of mindful meditation and inserted a light mention of the shakras. Colleen is a generous instructor, giving her students her all and it was a pleasure being in her field of energy. I cannot stop talking about this class to friends and family and will continue to share my experience. It was just what I needed during this unprecedented time. God bless Sankofa Yoga Studio and instrctor Colleen. May the Force be with you!

Fantastic experience: Tamisha is an amazing instructor! She was engaging with a little hint of humor. I appreciated that she was mindful that not everybody had the same level of experience, and she demonstrated the actual poses and their simpler modifications. I can’t wait to attend again!

Fantastic experience: Lovely clean yoga studio with kind & knowledgeable teacher. Yin yoga Class felt like long slow stretching with meditation - perfect antidote to too much sitting at a desk throughout the week. Will be back to some of the other classes.

Fantastic experience: Love, love, love this place!

Fantastic experience: Love Sankofa! I'd give it ten stars if I could. The atmosphere is welcoming and completely unintimidating. What really solidified my rating and want to review was when I entered the bathroom, there were feminine products available, which made me so happy. Tamisha, the owner and all her instructors are knowledgeable, personable and easy to approach. I've enjoyed each class so far. Special shout to to Ms. Q who teaches on Saturday- your classes was life changing for my body! I will be buying a membership once my new student pass is done. Do not miss this home! Come and see!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love the vibe at Sankofa Yoga & Wellness Center. They have everything that is required for your practice and the classes are beginner friendly. I feel comfortable and will continue to deepen my yoga practice at Sankofa Yoga! #Namaste

Fantastic experience: Relax, Relate, Release is an awesome way to ease into Yoga and learn how to breathe and release all your tensions and the instructor is so helpful and wonderful! I will continue with this as it’s helping strengthen my core, limbering up tightened muscles, and so much more. Great location too!

Fantastic experience: I was just excited about a yoga studio in Laurel and near my home (no excuses right?!) And now I'm excited about going cause the teachers are great they are intentional about knowing my name and my ailments and limitations. They care that I wasn't there for a while and happy I was back. I cannot express how much I love this place. Thank you for existing in Laurel!
