Our Story

our_story_3-wide

 

Yoga Trek began in the late 1990's in the home of founders Ben and JoAn Taylor, two vibrant young 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.  Since June of 2007, Yoga Trek has expanded to a full  7-day schedule with a wide variety of yoga 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 yoga instruction. All of our teachers are dedicated to the study and practice of yoga. We value the whole person and the community that develops when people come together to discover their true potential.

What Students Say

"After being a runner for over 30 years, Yoga Trek has helped restore my flexibility. The classes there provide me with not only an excellent way to strengthen my body, but an excellent way to restore my energy and relax my mind. Yoga Trek promotes healthy practices and every student is encouraged to work at her own level without feeling inadequate or unchallenged."
