Akasha Yoga

Love this studio! 💕 The hot Pilates classes are an amazing hot HIIT workout, and they get better every time. Steve is a great instructor and motivator and brings such good energy to class. The $59 unlimited month special (with a mat towel) was a great deal and totally worth it. Can’t wait for many more classes!

Love Akasha! Have taken hot yoga for many years back home and was looking for a good, solid studio here in Davis while I finish my undergrad. Owners are amazing and many class styles are offered at various times throughout the day.

I am a BIG fan of this studio & the Pilates classes! The Pilates classes will kick your booty & I leave feeling stronger & energized. The classes are challenging & you are motivated to push yourself in a fun & inviting way. Steve is an awesome instructor — he has a great balance between intensity & care. He hypes you up in class so you believe you CAN do it & do it with a smile on your face. If you’re wanting to check out a class, I highly recommend!

The yin yoga class is delectable! This place is clean with an easy online interface and great introductory deal for first timers: $45 for one month unlimited. Drawbacks are too many for me to keep a membership though: 1. The studio space is crazy crowded for the number of students they allow to enter! The very least they could do is to mark off the floor for mat placement if they're not going to reduce the class size cap. 2. They only really offer hot vinyasa classes that are too rigorous for those of us who need a slower, gentler practice and more guidance with alignment. And if you're a beginner or have less control over your movements, the crowded space doesn't allow you to make mistakes or learn your limits without interrupting your neighbors' practice. 3. The studio is hot, so of course it get sweaty, and it's awesome that they offer spray bottles with cleaning solution for members' use. But ohmygoodness the studio blocks are wet every time you go to use them... is it cleaning solution? Is it sweat? I'm sorry but ew! I'll bring my own. I would be a committed member if they offered some straight hatha or slow flow options. As it stands, I will definitely continue attending the yin classes whenever I can, despite the crowded space because they're so yummy!

Generally a good in person studio though hot/packed classes are not for everyone. I no longer live in Davis and have signed up for multiple online classes because I enjoy the classes and teachers but multiple times its happened where no one turned on the Zoom. Extremely frustrating and disappointing when you are all ready to work out. It also seems as though no one cares about fixing this issue. The response is always "sorry better luck next time." Unfortunate.
