Last Wednesday officially marked my 1 year anniversary of going to Reach Yoga and holy smokes what a wild, beautiful ride it has been! 🌊
What started as a simple Hinge 1st date 🤭 to Alena's 7pm Candlelight Vinyasa would end up kickstarting my yogi journey. I had been introduced to yoga in the past at Corepower, but the timing was off for me and I wasn't ready to receive the benefits yoga had to offer.
What I like the most about Reach Yoga is the clear sense of Community that exists. This isn't your typical studio where students go to class, don't interact, workout, and leave immediately after (which, if that's what you're lookin for absolutely rad too 💪🏾).
Additionally, every instructor has a unique style and experience that they bring to class - and it's cool to take different classes and learn / observe different styles being taught - not like Corepower where classes are taught the exact same way, etc.
A year later I've pushed myself out of my comfort zone, doing Vinyasa 2 with Shelley, Sculpt classes with Stephanie, and militant (but lovingly accountable) flows with James. My surfing is stronger & noticeably looser, and I'm 2 months into my first 200 hour YTT with Alena.
Ask me a few years ago if I'd ever do any of the above and you'd get one of the most beautiful and genuine, yet loud cackles of all time out of me. Can not recommend this family enough to anyone looking to begin their Yoga journey for whatever path they are on,...
Read moreI've been going to Reach for almost a year now and I keep coming back because I love the people and instructors so much. I have been practicing yoga off and on for years, but I've made the most growth at Reach. The instructors teach you so much about yoga, challenge you with inversions, and even offer some of the powerful spiritual aspects of yoga such as their use of tibetan singing bowls, meditation, and chanting. You will get a different experience depending on the class and the instructor. It's a breath of fresh air since so many studios are overly-commercialized. I've learned so much, so that's why I've continued coming for so long. It feels like a community.
It's a great studio and I love that they offer a nice variety of classes for all levels. The price is very reasonable for their unlimited membership and they usually have a $50 off coupon for your first month. The best part is the amazing instructors, some of whom I've become good friends with. They are really welcoming and inspiring. Thanks Hana, Christina, Desiree, and Ansley for changing my life through...
Read moreI am addicted to yoga! If you are a college student in the San Diego area (like me!), they offer excellent discounted rates on drop-in's for $12 (reg $16), and all new students receive a $50 gift certificate that they can apply towards anything! (And that includes monthly membership! =D). Whether you want to relax in a candlelight yoga class, or build strength and get toned, there is a class for all yogi's alike! Trust me, I go almost 5 days a week and have enjoyed every class I took! I like how the instructors here are very hands on and will make adjustments to help make sure you maintain good form, but they will also respect your space if you say so [= You can also download the Reach Yoga app on your iPhone and Android to make it easier to keep track of the class schedule on your phone. Overall, this is an excellent studio, and I...
