Founder Jasmine Chehrazi was living a few blocks away in a funky old rowhouse with roommates when Yoga District opened its doors in Bloomingdale in 2008. She commented that the neighborhood “has charm, style, history, diversity, depth, and a strong sense of community. Bloomingdale is so close to everything, yet has the pleasant feeling of being tucked away from it all.” “Bloomingdale is so close to everything, yet has the pleasant feeling of being tucked away from it all.” —Jasmine Chehrazi, Founder of Yoga District ISSUE NO. 5 29
