Our philosophy
Together we move forth
We built Forth for the room you walk into more than the pose you walk out with. Slow light. Warm floors. Teachers who notice you. Whatever you came in carrying — leave a little of it here.
A note from EleanorOur class modalities
Each one meets you where you are today.
Hot
Hot Open
Hot yoga asana.The same flow, turned up. Heat opens what tension keeps shut.
Engage
Mat pilates.Small, precise work. Your core wakes up — your shoulders thank you.
Hot
Hot Engage
Hot mat pilates.Pilates with the heat on. Strength shows up faster than you'd expect.
Strengthen
Mat-based strength training.Weighted, deliberate, low-impact. Build the muscle that holds the rest of your week.
Breathe
Active breathwork + soundbath.Forty minutes of breath, sound, and almost no thinking required.
Deepen
Guided meditation.Sit, listen, return. A teacher does the steering so you don't have to.
Restore
Deep stretching + soundbath.Long holds, bolsters, low light. Closer to a nap than a workout — on purpose.
Awaken
Ecstatic dance.No choreography. No mirrors. Move how the music moves you.
A moment, after class — the way the city quiets when you do.

This week at Forth
How our community feels

"I had the most wonderful experience doing a yoga class today at Forth. It is a cozy, inviting space with absolutely wonderful people. Eleanor has created a space that is much needed in the community. The care with which she teaches, and has crafted the energy of Forth, is undeniable."
"I've been coming to Forth for over a month now and can say that I think it's such a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. Between the founder Eleanor, the incredibly skilled and varied teachers, the ambiance and the community the space creates — it's just perfect."

Questions, answered.
Do I need experience to take a class?
No. Most of our regulars walked in for the first time with no background at all. Tell the teacher it's your first class — they'll meet you there.
What's the difference between Open and Engage?
Open is breath-led yoga (vinyasa flow). Engage is mat pilates — slower, smaller, core-focused. Different muscles, different feel. Try both.
What should I wear and bring?
Comfortable clothes you can move in. Water if you have a bottle. We provide mats, towels, and props — borrow anything you need at the front desk.
Can I use my HSA / FSA?
Yes. Pre-tax HSA and FSA funds work at Forth for memberships, packs, and drop-ins.
What's your cancellation policy?
Cancel up to ten hours before class with no fee. Inside ten hours, the credit returns to your account as a late-cancel — just give us a heads up if you can.
Do you host private events or corporate sessions?
Yes — team mornings, bridal parties, birthdays, off-sites. Email hello@forthstudiochicago.com and tell us what you have in mind.
Where do I park?
Street parking on Milwaukee Ave and the side streets. Both studios are a short walk from the Blue Line (Logan Square + Belmont stops).
