I have joined Pilgramage of the Heart Yoga studio in Normal Hights, San Diego, CA ~ 5 years ago and I have been “ intravenously” hooked to their program/ classes ever since. WHY⁉️... ....Because they offer everything you need to strengthen or improve your relationships with: your BODY ( physical body), PEOPLE , and the highest level of SELF ( consciousness). Whatever your body or mind need, you will find there.

They offer variety of different classes in the beautiful 2 studios, every day of the weak from morning to evening.

Their numerous instructors bring different styles of teaching , by helping students learn how to act differently, in order to achieve their individual goals in the process of “activating” both- body and the mind.

Their numerous classes, and workshops in addition , offer not just the experience of different body exercises, but advice on healthy lifestyle, diet included, sound healing and relaxation, meditation, importance and practice of stillness, even yoga therapy - for the most common body aches and pains due to mild muscle pain and tenderness, decreased range of motions , or stiffness that can worsen with age...etc...etc...

Instructors are very knowledgeable and friendly; they treat every student as a family member, and always find time to talk with you after class and help at different levels in your individual needs...

The studio itself is spacious, beautiful, perfectly maintained , very pleasant.

Down-to-earth community. Top-notch teachers.

I’ve been coming to the Pilgrimage of the Heart studio for only three months, and joined as a member after my two-week trial membership ran out. And I’m so glad I did!

The community of teachers at this studio are so knowledgeable and welcoming! They have strengthened my body and calmed my mind by leading their unique wonderful classes. Deep gratitude to the following teachers: Kaitlyn, Madison, Lauren, Kelly, Nam, Sydney, and Madison, Heather and Kara.

Here you will find a class that suits you and your skill level, from gentle yoga, yoga for all levels, yin/restorative yoga and flow. They also have recently started hot yoga, and offer free meditation classes to members on Tuesdays, and on Thursdays, a sound healing and meditation class.

Whether you are a beginner like me, or a seasoned yogi, I suggest trying this studio out. You will walk into a community of caring teachers and authentic yoga classes. You’ll walk out feeling energized, relaxed, and ready to tackle whatever comes your way. Practicing yoga here has been transformative. I think more clearly, sleep more soundly and overall, walk more briskly. It has been an...
