“Widely considered one of the best and friendliest yoga studios in town.” – Lonely Planet
“Wild Lotus has been voted Best Place To Take A Yoga Class by Gambit Readers every year since they opened. From the vibrations of your very first “Om” to a strong and active downward dog, the instructors at Wild Lotus always have your back. Sean Johnson, the studio’s owner and founder, and The Wild Lotus Band merge mantras with New Orleans rock ‘n’ roll, giving the studio extra edge as a leading voice in kirtan music and the first mantra music act to play the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.” – Gambit Weekly
“The symbol of the lotus flower as a thing of beauty that emerges out of the mud has a special resonance for the yoga community in New Orleans. Sean Johnson, whose Wild Lotus studio was one of the first to reopen in 2006 after Hurricane Katrina, says that he’s seen the city’s interest in yoga blossom in the wake of the devastation.” – Yoga Journal
“The creative minds behind this studio organize and facilitate countless events throughout the year catering to every sort of taste.” – Where Y’At Magazine
