Hapa Yoga & Fitness — Local services in San Diego

I attended a musical yoga class for babies and families at Hapa Yoga, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Hapa Yoga stands out not only for its compassionate support for parents, but particularly for those navigating postpartum challenges.

The class itself was a delightful blend of gentle yoga and engaging musical activities designed to bond with your baby while promoting relaxation. The instructor was incredibly warm and attentive, making the session feel both nurturing and uplifting. They went above and beyond to create a welcoming environment where parents, including those struggling with postpartum depression and anxiety, felt supported and valued.

One of the standout features of the class is its commitment to the well-being of parents. They offer on-site childcare, which means that if parents need a moment to themselves, the caring staff will look after the babies. This thoughtful provision allowed me to take a break, recharge, and fully participate in the class without worry.

The community at Hapa Yoga is equally wonderful. Other attendees were friendly and empathetic, fostering a supportive network that made the class even more enjoyable. The overall atmosphere was one of genuine care and understanding, which is especially important for those dealing with the emotional and physical strains of new parenthood.

Hapa Yoga excelled in creating a supportive, inclusive, and heartwarming environment for my baby and I. Their dedication to families is a valuable resource for any family looking to embrace yoga and community during the early stages...

After visiting several other yoga studios to find the best fit for me, I ended up at Hapa Yoga. I found Hapa through Groupon, which had a great intro deal...20 classes for $52. I found 2 instructors that I absolutely loved and connected with, and attended both of their classes 4 times/week. I ended up becoming a member, and addicted to yoga. I have been a member for over a year now. The monthly membership fees are VERY reasonable ($69), about half as much as you would pay at any other studio. Although, I have heard they raised the prices for new members ($20 more a month or $89). The studio is clean and privately owned, which is great because I like to support local small businesses. This also allows more comfort and flexibility for members, rather than a corporate studio. I especially loved the heavily cushioned floor, which makes it easier to be confident when trying certain poses. I am sad to say that I am cancelling my membership. My work schedule has changed and the classes and instructors that I absolutely loved going there for, do not fit in my schedule anymore. In fact, one instructor has left, and the other is leaving. Don't get me wrong, there are still great instructors at this studio...you should definitely check out Angelica or...

Hapa Yoga is my mommy happy place! Practicing yoga while having your little one safely in childcare right outside the studio is a prescription that EVER new mom needs!

Classes: Great assortment of classes from everything to TRX to Power Yoga. With a salad bar assortment of offerings most class levels will sit right in the middle around level 2 with options to step it up or down as needed. Dat's Power 80 classes are my workout highlight for the week. They should totally add more!

Facilities: Great facilities with nice locker rooms and showers. Both studios are nice and the large studio had a padded floor. Great for building your strength training but be care of your wrists in an inversion.

Daycare: THE ICING ON THE CAKE! Seriously, getting in a real yoga class and a quick hour of alone time with the little one safely just outside the studio door is awesome. All the staff is wonderful and they do everything they can to work with you and your tots. I started with my daughter there at 4 months old and we did a an occasional time or two where she was so upset I got called out. But they always encouraged me to let her reset and try again later. Now we have no problems and I drop her off with ease knowing I can stay...
