Welcome to Central Ohio Nude Yoga (Cohnuga)

Join us for an inclusive, supportive, and invigorating yoga experience. Cohnuga offers three weekly, men-only nude yoga classes along with a coed gentle nude yoga session at our studio in Grandview Heights, Columbus, Ohio.

Registration is required for all classes. You can view our schedule and sign up under Classes – Group Classes. The exact location will be emailed to registered participants.

We are committed to creating a safe and welcoming space for everyone. Our men-only classes are open to all who identify as male, while our coed sessions embrace all genders.

New to yoga or social nudity? No worries! Beginners are welcome—flexibility isn’t required, though regular practice may help you gain it over time. For further insights, explore our F.A.Q. and Why Nude Yoga? sections.

Meet Your Instructor

Most of our classes are led by Michael, a certified Power Yoga instructor with over 12 years and more than 4,000 hours of teaching experience. Learn more about him under Instructor. Prestin teaches a weekly class as well and fills in for Michael on occasion.

Additional Opportunities

For those who prefer private sessions, whether to deepen their practice or accommodate scheduling needs, we offer one-on-one guidance.

Even if you're outside Central Ohio, you can join our online classes from anywhere or connect with us at national events.

The Thursday Class is Back!  04-Feb-2026

Michael is back in town and will resume offering the Thursday class in addition to the Tuesday and Friday classes. Also, Prestin has decided to take some time off and during the month of February Michael will cover the Wednesday classes as well.

What is the difference between the classes? Tuesday and Thursday are the more vigorous vinyasa (flow) classes. Friday is a gentle slow flow and Wednesday is somewhere in the middle.

Minimum attendance for all classes is 3-4 participants and classes may have to be cancelled if that number is not reached by 5 pm on the day of the class. Maximum class size is 12, so sign up early to reserve your spot.

Price Adjustment  04-Jan-2026

Attendance fees have been stable for over 8 years, but with the beginning of the year we decided to make a long overdue price adjustment: the non-member price for a single class at the studio is now $20 and the updated member price is $15. The cost for the online classes is now $12 for non-members and $10 for members. The new pricing scheme makes the membership ($15/year) an even better deal. We are proud that even with the new rates our prices are still well below the standard rates of commercial yoga studios - and you don't have to spend money for fancy yoga pants. Even better though: for the time being we leave the cost for the 10-class pass at $80 - still the best deal in town. Just be aware that the pass expires after 6 months regardless of how many classes you have used. Also, as always, we are happy to work with you if you are currently experiencing financial hardships.

Do Not Stay Alone  19-Nov-2025

A message from our friends at Nude Yoga Pittsburgh that is too important not to share:

This time of year it's easy to isolate.

If you find yourself hibernating too much, join us for yoga. You'll feel welcome, connected, and the yoga will keep you vibrant.

Stay social, stay healthy, stay connected - come to yoga.

10 Year Anniversary!  15-Jun-2025

Celebrating 10 Years of Nuga – Nude Yoga in Columbus!

It all began on June 16, 2015, when the first men's yoga class took place in a member's basement in Westerville. Over the next three years, we moved between several locations until finally, in 2018, we found our home in Grandview Heights.

Today, with three instructors and four weekly classes, we continue to grow, thrive, and build a welcoming community.

Join us in celebrating a decade of Nuga and help spreading the word by bringing your friends!

Here’s to many more years of naked yoga and warm hugs!

Michael – June 2025

COHNUGA in the news  22-Apr-2019

Okay, this is a few years old now but it gives you nice little intro to the group and our practice: Spectrum News 1 came to film a story about our nude yoga classes. It aired on 4/22/2019 and is posted on their website.

Lindsay Oliver, the reporter, did a great job putting it together. This being public TV, of course a lot of blurring had to be done...

If you are on Facebook you can watch the video with her comments that she posted on her page.
