These yogis and yoginis are killing it on Instagram!

I’ll admit that one of my favorite ways to relax is to scroll through my yoga Instagram feed.

The majority of the people I follow on Instagram either have a really amazing dog or they’re a pretty inspiring yogi. If I’m feeling uninspired with my own practice, it’s been a few days since I’ve been on my mat, or I’m looking for some cool new asanas to try, Instagram is the best place to go.

The yogis on this list are some of my favorites because they post beautiful asana pictures, great tutorials, and they keep it real with tidbits from their personal lives. Check out some of these incredible human beings yourself, and make Instagram your own happy little place.

Here is the full list of the 50 top yogis and yoginis on Instagram to watch out for in 2016

Just as a heads up: This list is not ranked by followers or anything. We think each Instagramer on this list is equally awesome and has his or her own unique style.

If you’re crazy about dogs, you’ll love the Yoga Girl Instagram. She is dedicated to saving dogs both locally and across oceans, and she posts plenty of sweet puppy pictures alongside her vibrant yoga portraits.

#49 LauraSykora

Laura is a yoga teacher, and she recently became certified to teach acro yoga with her husband. Her poses are always strong and poised, and she frequently posts side-by-sides of the progress she’s making in certain poses.

This is refreshing because it reminds beginning yogis that everyone was a beginner at some point. If you like cute kid yoga, too, Laura got her 15-minutes of fame when she posted daily pictures of her doing yoga with her teeny tot.

Kino is one of the world’s most prominent Ashtanga teachers. Her level of flexibility is astounding and impresses me with every one of her posts. She’s very accessible and works hard to make sure the more difficult poses are available to yogis of every level.

She divides her time between Florida and India, so her posts are often like a storybook. Side note: she’s also good friends with @beachyogagirl, so you’ll often see them make cameos on each other’s accounts.

Britta lives in a veritable tropical paradise, so her pictures are hues of turquoise, sky blue, and glittering white. This probably isn’t the best account to follow if you’re buried beneath feet of snow and gray skies, but it’s soothingly beautiful if you can control your jealousy.

Britta is submerged in the sea for most of her pictures, but she has plenty of shots of her family and cats, too.

Britta also offers yoga classes in the Tampa Bay area so if you are one of the lucky ones living in this area you should definitively sign up for one of her private classes!

Mandy’s IG is a mix of yoga and cheeky inspirational memes. She’s based in LA, so you get both beach and urban yoga poses. She does post items with some curse words in them, so steer clear if you’re shy. Otherwise, you need to follow her. She gives me a dose of inspiration and giggles everyday.

But don't stop there - Mandy also offers public and private classes for everyone living in and around LA and I also heard rumors of an upcoming retreat in Spain! You can get up-to-date info on her facebook page here.

Color yourself impressed when you take a gander at Irene’s strength and flexibility. Her account is almost 100 percent yoga, but she does a huge variety of poses with plenty of backbends and envy-inducing splits.

She is also a traveling yoga teacher, so her pictures have different backdrops at almost every turn, and they aren’t all beaches.

If you are thinking about becoming a yoga teacher yourself then you are in for a treat! Irene is hosting a 200hr teacher training in Bali this July! Go and claim your spot now!

Claudine is a regular contributor to the online yoga subscription site, YogaGlo, and she’s one of my very favorite yoga teachers. She and her husband do some killer acro yoga, and they’re two of the most famous yoga teachers in the acro world.

They founded ACROVINYASA, a teacher training program that combines acro yoga and vinyasa flow for a challenging and exciting version of partner yoga. These two are like yogi unicorns; they make the most challenging partner poses look so easy!

The majority of his pictures take place on the beach or near the ocean in some aspect, but he also has some city-themed shots sprinkled in for good measure.

Rocky Heron is already a celebrity yogi, and he’s known for his lighthearted teaching style, swoon-worthy muscles, and killer style. He offers plenty of glimpses into his life, including his partner, cat, and the good food they all enjoy together.

Rocky definitely proves that you don’t have to be a vegan, incense-burning, meditating hippy to live a yogic lifestyle. It’s about fun, love, and compassion!

Aubry is full of wise words that she shares with her IG followers on a daily basis. Paired with her encouragement are lovely shots of her taking a yoga pose at her rock climbing gym, beaches, and boardwalks.

She’s an advanced Ashtangi, too, so her level of skill is simply mindblowing. She still remains accessible, hosting monthly challenges for yogis of all skill levels.

Her photos encompass all seasons, giving you shimmering winter scenes, golden fall afternoons, and sun-soaked summer days. You’ll still get the occasional ocean backdrop, but you get plenty of trees, mountain paths, and rocky outcroppings, too.

The majority of Kathy’s pictures are taken in her studio, and since she’s an ambassador for a few different yoga clothing lines, her outfits are always on point.

He’s not the stereotypical yogi; his posts are dotted with curse words, and he admits he loves beer and wine. His pictures are moody and artsy, and he also occasionally posts short video clips of his own practice.

If you’re looking for an account that encompasses everything about living a yoga lifestyle, I highly recommend them. Maybe I’ll see you at Wanderlust someday!

If you’re a single lady (or guy), he may give you some major #husbandgoals.

I love Riva’s photos because she’s pretty much never in the same place from photo to photo. Sometimes she’s in a medieval church, sometimes she’s in the desert, and sometimes she’s dropping a pose or two in an urban street.

Besides your typical yoga pictures, she pieces together some truly creative pieces of art with her yoga practice.

I adore my yoga Instagram browsing, and I had a lot of fun running through these yogis’ accounts and drooling over their pictures. Those will come in handy for the time after christmas when I have to motivate myself to burn some of those cakes off my belly 😉

It certainly kick started my motivation in my own practice, and I hope it does the same thing for you! Don't forget to follow our instagram account @somuchyogaofficial. Not much there yet but we are working on it 🙂

Did we forget anyone? Let us know in the comments!​ If you liked this post, please click one of the buttons below to share it with your friends! Thank you 🙂

19 thoughts on “50 Best Yoga Instagram Accounts to Follow in 2017”

  1. This is a great list with some new accounts to follow. Check out @indieyogalife. One of my favourite accounts for fun and inspiring posts. She even draws adventures of her own illustrated yogi, #thisisyogijade.

  2. Great list, I follow most of these and understand that it’s a personal opinion piece. But it’s disappointing how monochromatic this list is, I was hoping to see some yogis of color as I scrolled through. There are some really great yogis of color on Instagram that you should check out. For example: @yogineo, @dade2shelby, @yogaracheal, @yogahermit, @yogalola_ to name a few. Check out the “colorsofyoga” hashtag and maybe consider diversifying this list. Let’s break the stereotype of yoga being only for a specific race.

    • Hey Tega, thank you for your feedback, it’s very valuable! Let me assure you that this was by no means intentional so we appreciate your recommendations! Actually we are compiling a list of community recommendations which we will add to this list soon. I didn’t know about the hashtag #colorsofyoga but I will make sure to check it out.

      As an avid world traveller I couldn’t agree more with you on the importance of breaking stereotypes and showing how beautifully diverse this community really is.

  3. This is a wonderful list and thank you for including photos. Consider the following for your community recommendations. @badyogiofficial , @purpledotyogaproject , @baron_baptiste , @diannebondyyoga , @spirituallyfly and @keithmitchell59.

  4. I’m happy that you put some of the smaller accounts and some yoga dudes. They always seem to get left behind… I love @ladydork as she combines fitness with yoga, healthy eating etc. @nolatrees is an amazingly inspiring page, so too @mynameisjesamyn I follow @zuri_natturals who keeps her posts positive and real. I love that her feed shows her growth and progress. I personally love to see people who are not your stereotypical looking yogis

    • Hey Shenielle, thanks so much for your feedback! I really want to do another roundup with less known yogis, also more variety in general…I admit that this roundup is a bit “stereotypical yogis” which I still find inspirational but Yoga offers so much more variety and I think I didn’t do this fact enough justice.

      I just haven’t gotten around to creating a new one since this one was so much work already. I promise that I will have another one up at some point, I just can’t say when. 🙂

    • What a great list! I really like the underdogs though! haha For me–I just started following @yogabyjen and she seems super real! Everybody starts somewhere! Great list!

  5. Wow! what a great list! Wonderful to see so many people spreading the yoga love! There are definitely some great male yogis you might want to check out: @sashprime @hungyoga and @yogaathlete

  6. You forgot @caleyalyssa in LA! She blows the #45-50 out of the park with yoga. I checked out #45’s IG and not a lot of yoga going on there…just a lot of narcissistic pics of herself.

  7. When I look at this selection of Yoga-Celebrities, I feel like yoga is doing spectacular asanas. I feel that this is a very reduced view on yoga. Maybe there is also people out there – on instagram- who go beyond showing their body skills. If you know some, I’d be very interested. Thank you.

  8. 50 yogis and sadly it still seems to misrepresent YOGA and plays into the well known stereotype.
    Check out @dade2shelby @koyawebb @yogineo @iamreneewatkins @pintsizenurse @wonder_woman_o @hippie_heathen @ladydork @chelsealovesyoga these are some TRULY AMAZING yogis and most of them are always overlooked.

  9. Great list! I also really dig @the_bohemian_introvert, small account but very unique because she draws on all her pictures. 🙂
