A much-overdue review for this wonderful studio! I've taken classes with Stacey, Philip, Heather,…read moreJosie, and Alisha, and I always leave feeling energized and ready for the day ahead. I've gone through a couple of injury phases while attending classes here, and the instructors have been fantastic. They regularly offer modifications without making anyone feel singled out, and they create an environment where you can truly work at your own level. Just as importantly, the community is incredibly welcoming and nonjudgmental. Everyone seems focused on their own practice while still contributing to a supportive atmosphere. That kind of inclusivity is what makes this studio special and why I keep coming back! Orange resident tip: yes, there's now paid parking around the studio, but the parking garage on Lemon St is still free! Also, if you live nearby, biking or scootering over is a great option. The staff is always kind about letting people bring them inside. Thank you, Sunspark, for being a light in the circle.

I found this spot, and wow, it did not disappoint! Jesse led the all-levels class and did an amazing job guiding us through Vinyasa stretches. The downstairs room was such a vibe--with trees right outside the window, we transitioned from sunset to nightfall. The soft mood lighting added to the calm, relaxing atmosphere. Jesse started us off with deep breathing before moving into more challenging stretches, holding each one just long enough to feel the burn. By the time we wound down, I was so spent--between the body heat in the room and the workout itself, I was done. The session ended with us on our backs, taking deep breaths, and for the first time, I felt like I truly let go. I closed my eyes, relaxed completely, and even drifted into a little nap before snapping back to reality, realizing I was still in class. When I got up, I felt like Jesse had turned my stiff, tin-man body into a soft, loose rag doll. Such an incredible experience--I can't wait to go back!

I recently tried Caffe Yoga through ClassPass and I'm so glad I did. What a cute, quaint little…read morestudio here in OC. Honestly, it's the most beautiful studio I've ever been to. The space feels so warm and welcoming the moment you walk in, and I love that the yoga classes are heated, it just adds to the whole experience. The staff was very friendly when I checked in, which always makes a difference, especially when it's your first time somewhere. A quick heads up: The studio is a little hard to find at first. It's located inside a business complex in a suite (not a standalone storefront). I parked in the lot across from Mud Hen Clay & Art Studio and found the stairs there that lead up to the studio. I'd recommend arriving a bit early so you have time to find parking and get settled. Also, the restroom is a shared community bathroom with the other suites in the complex, so just keep that in mind. I took a Hatha/Vinyasa class with Kimberly on a Saturday morning and it was great. The flow felt balanced and grounding. This was my first time here and my first impression was such a good one. I'd love to come back.

I easily get bored and I got bored of Hotworx so yesterday (12/29/25), I went to the gym to cancel my membership and I was surprised that I was not allowed to cancel it without the owner's approval. It was shocking because I had never heard of such a policy. Jordan, the trainer and employee there stated that every cancellation has to go through the owner, Michael first. I asked her why. She said she didn't know why. She took down my name and phone number and said Michael will call me. So, I waited until 4:00pm on Tuesday, December 30th and I called Jordan. She apologized again and said he was busy and that she would message him again. I then told Jordan that I felt that these practices are unethical and I should be allowed to cancel my membership. She then apologizes again and says he will call me today. Previously when I cancelled my membership, I had to pay a fee to cancel. Now, they are trying to prevent you from canceling all together. I am writing this review as documentation for my credit card company too. Jordan said my credit card will not be charged but I don't believe her. Nothing is in writing. The gym is a nice concept but they make you jump through hoops to cancel your membership. Also, you can't even cancel electronically, you have to come in person.

I started coming to The Sanctuary last month after being away from yoga for almost 8 years. I…read morewanted to get back into yoga and make more time for myself, so I decided to try the $45 two week unlimited membership. It was a great way to explore different classes and find what I enjoy. I've really loved Gentle Yoga, Yin Yang, Slow Flow, Harmony Breath & Sound, and Restorative Yoga. All of the instructors I've taken classes with have been wonderful, especially Sylvia, Sara, Divya, and Natalie. Aysha has also subbed a few classes I've attended and has a very calming voice. I ended up signing up for the monthly unlimited membership after my trial. The pricing is very affordable compared to other studios, and I love the small, intimate atmosphere. The Sanctuary is such a peaceful and welcoming place, and I truly feel like it's a place of healing. Yoga has already made such a positive difference for me mentally and physically, and I'm so glad I found this studio!

I have been curious about Sanctuary Wellness Center & Yoga Studio for a long time now. I was so…read moreexcited to see an opening for Aerial Yoga during a time I was available. I made sure to arrive early... especially when there was this excerpt on the class that says, "Arriving late, even unintentionally can take away from others - their peace, focus, and time". The parking lot was hard to find. I actually had to circle it a few times before finding it, and parking in their back lot. I entered from the back door and made my way through the front to check in with the owner. I checked in early. I signed in. I SIGNED THE WAIVER. The owner was going to give me a studio tour but she kept getting busy with other things. That's fine, not an issue. Their studio space is small. For aerial, there are 9 silks, so 1 for the instructor and 8 for the students. The front left is a bit close to some equipment so the teacher took that spot when it got busy. The spacing is a bit tight, and can cause students to bump into each other if they are not mindful. Also the studio is off a busy street and I can hear the cars driving by, so it could be more relaxing. Come early! Especially with aerial. It is important to adjust the silks where the bottom is at your pelvic height. A lot of the students did not come in until the start of class time, and the instructor still had to lower the silks and then adjust it to their height. OUR CLASS STARTED 10 MINUTES LATE. I don't blame the instructor because they can't turn away their students... but that is 10 minutes wasted from my time even though I was early and prepared. The aerial class itself was a great work out. A bit on the basic end of aerial yoga. I know the instructor mentioned she designs it based on the level of the class and we had some folks who were first timers so the instructor went easy on us. The owner offered to take pictures for us, but she went away. The instructor was nice to take photos too, but her yoga skills are definitely better than her photography skills. In one of the photos where my face and body shaped looked the best, she had her whole thigh in it. Sigh. We were 3 minutes from class ending time and we didn't even get into the silks for a cocoon savasana. At that point I just left cause it didn't seem like we would be doing the savasana or anything. What annoyed me the most ... is receiving a messaging telling me I didn't sign a waiver and that I need to sign one next time. WOW !! I came early... signed the waiver... had my time wasted... and now I get this email telling me I didn't sign the waiver. Before receiving that message I was in the air about coming back. But after seeing that message I was so annoyed. I am not coming back... It would have been more tactful to wait for me to come back and ask me at that time to sign if they misplaced the last one. I work out to relax but this whole experience was so stressful. I shouldn't have my time wasted if THEY are disorganized.

I felt pretty nervous going into my first class knowing that I have sciatica & felt pretty discouraged with other yoga classes in the past triggering more back pain. I expressed my concerns to Roni, owner of Good Moodra & one of the instructors at the studio, during my intake/first visit consultation prior to starting class. She listened to my concerns and guided me through my first class right next to me, telling me helpful tips throughout class. Jaeda, one of the instructors, was so helpful and kind in helping me set up my account & booking my first 7-day pass. Kathy and Michelle also really nice & helped me through my first week of class! It just seems like such a cute studio that has a great community of positive people who want to build you up wherever you are in your fitness journey. TLDR: For my chronic back pain girlies, I would try checking out this yoga studio--it was worth the long commute for me!

Check-in at the front desk was quick and everyone was really pleasant. Since this was my first VersaClimber class, I was introduced to my instructor, who walked me through the machine and how class would go. That one-on-one intro made a big difference, she was patient, made me feel confident, and even gave me the option to wear shoes or socks (I went with socks). The class itself was intense but totally manageable. You can modify or take a break whenever you need to without feeling bad about it at all. 300 calories in 30 minutes, I can't complain! Everyone there, instructor and fellow clients alike, was warm and welcoming. I'll definitely be back, and I can't wait to try the reformer classes next!

I'm extremely disappointed with how this was handled. You offer appointments through ClassPass, I…read morepurchased credits specifically to book this service, and I scheduled my day around the confirmed reservation. To then have my appointment canceled because priority is given to your direct members is both misleading and unprofessional. If appointments made through ClassPass are subject to being displaced by members, that should be clearly disclosed before customers purchase credits and book appointments. Otherwise, customers reasonably rely on those confirmed reservations when planning their schedules. Unfortunately, this experience has caused unnecessary disruption to my day, and I won't be returning. I hope you'll reconsider this policy or, at a minimum, make it transparent to future customers. I'll be reaching out to ClassPass to share my experience and ask them to review whether this business's booking practices are consistent with their partner expectations. I hope they take appropriate action based on their policies.

For almost a year now, I've been working with Jessica through private, in-home yoga sessions, and the experience has been nothing short of transformational.

Jessica has an incredible ability to meet you exactly where you are--whether you're brand new to yoga or looking to build on your existing practice. As someone who started with little experience, I immediately felt supported. Her guidance is clear, her adjustments are thoughtful, and her encouragement is constant. What really sets her apart is her professionalism and genuine care. She shows up prepared, focused, and always brings positive energy into every session. There's no pressure--just consistent, mindful instruction that helps you grow. Thanks to Jessica, I've seen real progress in my flexibility, strength, and overall balance. But beyond the physical improvements, I simply feel better. More grounded, more energized, and more connected to my body. Her support has played a huge role in creating a healthier, more mindful lifestyle for me. If you're considering yoga as a way to move better, feel better, and live better--Jessica is the perfect person to guide you on that journey.
