Rock Your Body
This will help you get down...dog.
It's not every day that you get to shake your chakras to Chaka Khan, but then again, Chakra5 isn't your everyday yoga studio.
Located in the "Hel-Mel" section of East Hollywood, Chakra5 is a new yoga nook designed to mesh the practices of Hatha, Vinyasa and Kundalini yoga with creative self-expression--but its real hook is the music.
Starting the studio off on the right note are "Mashup Thursdays," where the accompaniment of live musicians will help you get into the yoga groove. (Let's face it: you haven't really done asanas until you've done them to the sounds of an accordion.) Led by Lauren Maher, the classes cater to yogis at all levels and are a favorite of owner McKenna Rowe, who moonlights as a DJ—grab her recommended playlist here.
Yoga flow has never been quite so dope.
