I've been to so many yoga studios all over San Diego but it wasn't until I found Yoga Arts that I felt like I had finally found my yoga studio. Every single instructor is not only warm and caring but also excellent at what they do. Most studios i've been to in San DIego always felt impersonal and more fitness type yoga but yoga arts feels like the yoga I fell in love with. I've yet to attend a class where the teacher didn't pay close attention to my specific body needs, remember my name and made me feel truly seen. I think what makes it so special is its focus on Iyengar based teaching. I love how we break down each pose and place close attention to alignment and precision. If you are looking for a studio that will deepen your yoga practice and give you community, this is it!

Yoga Arts is a wonderful place to practice yoga whether you are new to yoga or if you’ve practiced for many years. The instructors are very skilled and also friendly and welcoming. The classes throughout the week are diverse and offer many different options and focuses. The instructors are especially great at helping each person throughout the class whenever someone may need a modification to a pose to make it accessible to them. And if that isn’t enough there is Citrine Spa connected to the studio should you need a massage or other healing treatment. I highly recommend Yoga Arts!
