In the heart of Houston’s Upper Kirby neighborhood, Luxe Yoga brings a fresh approach to modern yoga in Texas. The studio reflects founder Jenn Bianco’s vision for a space that balances structure and creativity—delivering powerful flows, a clean aesthetic, and a high-touch experience for people who expect more from their time.
While navigating a demanding corporate career and growing family, Jenn initially came to yoga as an occasional practice for strength and balance. It became an integral part of her weekly routine and eventually evolved into a business foundation. “As I transitioned away from corporate leadership and leaned into my creativity and entrepreneurial roots, I built Luxe Yoga as the kind of space I always wished existed,” she says. “Elevated, efficient, and designed for busy, high-performing people.”
Luxe opened in January 2025 and has quickly earned a reputation as a studio that defies expectation. The schedule includes Power Flow, Vinyasa, Restorative, and Strength Training, offering a wide range of movement for both activity and recovery. Classes are music-driven and precision-led, with instructors who bring presence and clarity into the room.
Each instructor reflects the Luxe standard—blending musicality, athletic challenge, and personality into their flows. The studio’s energy is sleek, spacious, and intuitive, designed to strip away distractions so students can fully engage with their practice.
Luxe places strong emphasis on space to ensure that every student has room to move, breathe, and stay present throughout class. The design reflects that mindset with a clean, modern layout and a cold plunge recovery area that encourages full immersion. Even the mats support that experience; each student practices on an extra-long Manduka PRO® 85" mat, offering more room to move with ease.
“Every class and cold plunge should feel like it was worth carving space out of a demanding schedule,” Jenn says. “We want students to leave feeling like they invested their time wisely.”
As the studio continues to grow, Jenn and her team remain focused on refining formats and listening to their community. “Be unapologetically clear about your vision,” she says. “Don’t try to be everything to everyone; create a space that truly delivers on its promise.”
