Yoga Trek began in the late 1990's in the home of founders Ben and JoAn Taylor, two vibrant teachers dedicated to Ashtanga Yoga. They opened yoga Trek Center in its current Oak Park location in 2004. In 2007, opportunity called them to New York.

Because of the powerful effect of yoga on their lives and the strong community that existed, students Kate Wester and Catherine Cappel decided to keep Yoga Trek going.  Today Yoga Trek is solely owned by Kate Wester and has it has broadened to embrace a wide variety of classes and workshops.

It is our intention to create a sanctuary where students of all levels can explore and develop their physical and spiritual selves through the practice of yoga and related activities. We are committed to offering the highest quality instruction. All of our teachers are dedicated to the study and practice of yoga in the broadest sense of the word. We value the whole person and the community that develops when people come together to discover their true potential, passion and joy.
