Clean Yoga studio with blessings of the Guru lineages. Classes depend on the instructors. I love the chant (Jaya Tree mantra?) after class by Tony. It’s so soothing. Beverly is another great instructor. She will correct every details in a pose. Doing it the right way is big in her class. Ive been doing Yoga here since 2013 and glad that it’s still open after the Pandemic hit. So grateful to have this studio in Oakland. 🙏🏾
Bikram Yoga Oakland feels like home: great community of students, always trained teachers and well-heated room. Like other review mentions here, it’s hard to find a dedicated hot yoga - bikram yoga - studio these days, but oakland studio keeps it the traditional way. I personally like the location, boarding can be tricky during evening classes.
This was my first studio to regularly practice Bikram. It was such a lovely space to learn and to feel comfortable and connected to the community and the teachers. I love the decor, the teachers and especially the surrounding Lake Merritt area for a delightful after-yoga-walk around the Lake :) Ivo is a great teacher and really holds it down with love. Thank you Yoga College Of India-Oakland! I’m now a yogi 😊🙏🏼
It should be noted that this hot yoga studio is carpeted. I didn't know that before signing up for my class. The staff was friendly, but owner was disrespectful over the phone.
Big fan of this studio, it's great value with good teachers, room is long with only two rows so you can always see the mirror, only complaint is that they haven't removed the photos of Bikram yet, could do with a bar
