The Zen Den Yoga Studio

In the heart of downtown Fruita, The Zen Den offers a warm, welcoming space designed to feel like a second home. With classes held at a comfortable 70 to 80 degrees, this community hub invites students to slow down, connect and grow. The diverse schedule, offered seven days a week, ranges from deeply restorative practices like “rest and restore” and yin to energizing flows such as “fire flow” and vinyasa. Beginner-friendly options, including gentle yoga, slow flow and “take a seat,” ensure accessibility for every body and experience level. The studio also offers a monthly “sound sojourn” on the first Saturday of each month and hosts a small boutique. Whether you’re seeking mindful stillness, improved mobility or a powerful sweat, The Zen Den’s teachers guide each class with intention, helping you return to the “home within” time and again. thezendenfruita.com
