Our Story

Welcome to 3 Down Dogs Yoga.  Here we are passionate about your mental, emotional, and physical health through the practice of yoga.  We focus on all aspects of our practice through flexibility and strength training, breathing exercise, and meditation. Classes are designed to encourage others to feel confident about their bodies regardless of their fitness level or experience. Our instructors strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental place where everyone feels welcome no matter where they are on their journey.

 When the Covid Pandemic hit, it devastated the yoga community here in the Atlanta area. In 2021 Jessica Friedman, the owner, decided to open up 3 Down Dogs Yoga with the mission to help rebuild the community that she loves so much.  Since then, we've been growing our practice and sharing our love of yoga.  The name, 3 Down Dogs Yoga, was born from Jessica's 3 dogs, Kara, Lola, and Kissten. When Jessica does yoga at home, all the dogs run in the room. They are always "down" to practice too. Jessica combined her love of the dogs, their love of yoga, and Downward Facing Dog, one of the most common yoga poses, and thus 3 Down Dogs Yoga was born.
