We aim to operate an ethical business offering products and services that provide an exceptional value and benefit.

BBY opened on February 1, 2005 in Cedar Park, Texas.  Yoga and Pilates classes are offered every week and we are always looking to add more classes to the schedule as the studio grows.

BBY was opened with the intent of bringing mind, body and spirit awareness, peace and most importantly BALANCE into the lives of the community.  For most people, yoga only involves the physical body.  There is no doubt that with consistent practice you will lose weight, tone and strengthen muscle and receive all of the wonderful health benefits of yoga.  However there is much more than meets the eye.  There exists an inter-connectedness between ALL things and with this practice we open the channels within ourselves to become more self-loving and in turn cultivate compassion, love and a respect for all things and for those who live, breathe and feel!  We are all filled with the light of love and a state of peace exists within all of us.  This practice will become a conduit toward unity in all aspects of your life.

Practicing Yoga and meditation have been scientifically proven to reduce stress and calm the mind.  Yoga is a mind-body experience that brings balance, strength and flexibility to those who practice. 

what to expect

The style of Yoga is a rich and very soulful blend of movement and stillness that creates energy within the body. 

All classes are designed to be challenging and accessible to all levels and abilities.  In each class you will burn calories, increase flexibility, gain strength, detoxify, release tension, develop focus, and electrify the body.  This flow-based (vinyasa) style of yoga heats up the body from the inside out and works the cardiovascular system, which in turn fights off infection and improves the immune system. 

Your strength will increase by using your own natural body weight and at the same time, flexibility is gained through the entire body while keeping the mind calm and focused through deep rhythmic breathing (ujjayi).  By breathing through stretches and becoming aware of body sensations, one is able to stay in the present moment.  Balance poses are included in each class, to challenge the mind and body and to develop concentration.  Twisting poses are incorporated to assist the body in detoxification and cleansing of the internal organs. 

By the end of class you will find tension is released from your body, every muscle group has been warmed and worked, and the mind has been present and focused. 

Poses are thoroughly described.  You choose the level at which you want to work.  Modifications are always presented for the less experienced student.  Similarly advanced students are offered suggestions to improve their practice.  All obstructions have been removed for those interested in yoga, while preserving the mental, emotional, and spiritual benefits of this ancient practice.

We strive to provide the best experience possible for our students giving safe instruction while being mindful of injury prevention and perpetuation of energy.  We want the best for our students and truly care for their well-being and personal advancement.

Allow yourself to let go and flow with the rhythm of life.
