....an independent coffeehouse, bar, and cafe located in Washington DC's historic Dupont Circle neighborhood, serving Counter Culture Coffee, craft local beers, and cocktails.

We believe in community, diversity, and equality, and our space is a place for people of all backgrounds to unwind and connect over carefully-sourced and organic ingredients, amazing Counter Culture coffee, and local craft beer, wine, and brilliant cocktails.

We try to foster a little bit of the "fika" vibe- the Swedish notion taking a moment to have coffee, slow down, and contemplate on your own or to gather with friends, and savor the moment. And yes, we have a great happy hour every weekday!

The menu is inspired by some of our favorite places in California, Australia, and the Mediterranean - it's veg and vegan-friendly, but omnivores need not worry: we have a great selection of rich baked goods, artisanal cheeses, charcuterie, and small plates.

Georgetown Yoga is the sister studio of The Yoga Shala and Dupont Circle Yoga, dedicated to offering teacher-driven, classical yoga styles.

Our mission is straightforward: offer teacher-driven, old-school yoga classes from classical Hatha roots: Iyengar, Ashtanga, Vinyasa (Flow), in a laid-back setting. We take yoga seriously but try to keep things laid-back and light; we hope to create a space where students can approach yoga on their own terms - not as part of some weird clique or cult.

The story of our studio is pretty short: take one longtime local restaurant owner and yoga student, Elias Hengst, and one Montana native, yoga teacher, certified massage therapist, and mental health counselor, Maryl Baldridge.

Add shared passion for yoga, community, teaching, family, friends, (mostly) healthy living, and a love of the outdoors - and you have The Yoga Shala.

We try to make our studio both accessible and affordable. If you're tight on funds, work in schools or non-profits, are a student, or just need a discount, drop us a line....!

Teacher-driven Vinyasa, Hatha, and Ashtanga Yoga in the heart of Dupont Circle

We offer teacher-driven, old-school yoga classes that are rooted in classical Hatha Yoga Traditions and emphasize proper alignment and movement as the foundation of a sustainable, strong practice.

You can show up to practice in whatever you want - sweatpants, shorts and a t-shirt, running clothes, or last night's outfit. It's OK to ask questions during class, laugh, take it super-easy, and to lose your balance trying something new.

We know each student's experience is unique, and our emphasis is on quality over quantity when it comes to substance of your practice.
