One Down Dog Brings Playlist-Powered Vinyasa Flows to Echo Park

September is apparently National Yoga Month, which makes it an opportune time for One Down Dog to bring its playlist-powered vinyasa flows to even more local yogis. The community-focused NELA fitness fave opened its third yoga studio in LA today just beyond the borders of Echo Park  and Historic Filipinotown and right on the edge of Downtown.

Featuring exposed brick walls and wooden beams, the bright and sunny space houses two yoga rooms (complete with ODD's signature graffiti murals), a massage and wellness room, changing rooms, spacious bathrooms, and a hangout-ready lobby with a retail space that stocks activewear and workout accessories from Cali-based labels.

Inspiring Detroit-bred founder, therapist, and yoga teacher Jessica Rosen — who opened ODD's first outpost in Silver Lake in 2013 and its second in Eagle Rock in 2015  — explains that she was originally eyeing spaces in DTLA but "when I saw the space I fell in love with its potential." She tapped Kelly Architects to help build the studio from scratch and Santa Fe-based visual artist (and yogi!) Joerael Elliott to create the wall art. (Scroll through the gallery above to take a peek inside the light-filled yoga haven.)

As far as workouts, fitness fiends can expect ODD's full class lineup for yogis of all sizes (yep, even little ones) and skill levels, including Flow, Sweat, Chill, Flowdown, Sculpt, Butt, Core, Restore, Yin, Prenatal, Baby & Me, Kids Yoga, Family Yoga, and more. Also on offer are weekly acroyoga classes as well as monthly wellness workshops, like breathwork, Tarot and Meditation, Gong Alchemy Soundbath, and many others.

Sweat seshes range from $22 for a single class to $95 for five classes to $170 for a 10-class package; there's also a monthly unlimited class package for $115 that includes access to all three of ODD's locations.

Wanna welcome the studio to the nabe? They're throwing a grand opening bash Sunday, September 16 — swing by between 11am to 6pm for a full day of events, including a yoga dance party, crystal healing, reiki, henna, tarot, acroyoga, and more; RSVP online and see the schedule on ODD's app.

If you're ready to sweat and get your sun salutations on, you can peep ODD's Echo Park schedule and book your next flow session here.
