The Vibe: Lean Into Your Deepening Before class, Callie…read morewelcomed me in and got me situated. We started talking. Come to find out, we're both from the Chicagoland area. Yoga continues to be such an intimate lil' world. The Guide: Reza Samadhi * Heated OLY Flow We began with the breath: Five-count inhale. Six-count exhale. Reza gave us our point of focus: The breath. We moved slowly. Smoothly. Fluidly. Long poses invited us to deepen the breath. Flying transitions reminded us to keep breathing... until it felt like gliding. Eventually, we came down. In Seated Butterfly, Reza offered one more reminder: "Lean into your deepening." And then... that moment when something understood in the mind is experienced in the body. Lean into what's ready to open. Finally, ripe and ready for Savasana. Music off. Silence. The Tribe Callie's welcome made arriving easy. Two lives from the Midwest somehow meeting inside a yoga studio in Pasadena. The Space & Place One Life Yoga sits above the street. Up the stairs, messages appeared: Increase energy. Improve concentration. At the top, the studio opens into: White walls. Dark wood floors. Exposed ceiling beams. Plants spilling from windows and shelves. Chairs gathered around fresh flowers. And Ganesha waiting just outside the yoga room. Summary We moved. We breathed. We deepened. The Shift "Lean into your deepening." There it was: A teaching moving from thought into experience. ‍ Yoga Field Note: Practice turns knowing into being.

I signed up for a one month trial for $70. I happened to get…read morevery busy with mom duties and work - so I wasn't able to start my trial yet. (I signed up a couple weeks ago). At first I was excited since I live nearby and planned to start yoga as a self care practice. The lady who initially called me when I signed up urged me to start asap. I notified her that I was still sorting through my schedule as this is the first month of the school year so it's a bit busy on my end. She wasn't friendly so this made me want to put it off for even longer. Mind you, the trial doesn't start until the day I come in for my first session so I was under the impression that I had time. 3 weeks later, my trial that has been already paid for has "expired". I called and emailed, still no response. I'll be doing a charge back on my card since this is bad business practice. Even worse, when I had called them it's either the phone doesn't get answered or the guy who did answer was clueless about which direction I should take. Will not be recommending to anyone and hopefully I get my money back.

I've taken several classes here, with my favorites being MoMu Flow with Kaleena and Kane, Slow Flow with Kane, and Lymphatic Flow with Kaleena on Friday nights-- so luxurious! Classes are often accompanied by live, relaxing music by Kaleena's husband, Gabe. It's truly unlike anything else offered at other studios. Pure charm and magic. The studio's programming is diverse and there's something for everyone. Very non-judgmental, supportive place for all. Free street parking and a fun part of town to explore pre or post session! Bonus dachshund motifs all around

There are two long mirrors in the front, but you can't see yourself unless you are positioned right in front. I took the slow flow class. I brought my own yoga mat. You need props for the class which they provide. Instructor/owner demoed all the moves. She provided modifications for some of the moves. She only did verbal corrections. At times it was kind of hard to see her if we were facing the east/west Direction. They currently have a deal for 3 classes for $45, which isn't bad for $15 per class. They are also on ClassPass if you want to try them out there. If you Google the address, it takes you to the back of the Police Department lot. The location is actually in front on Sierra Madre next to Nano Cafe. Plenty of street parking in front or on the side streets. Watch out for street sweeping days.

I was fortunate to find this very peaceful yoga studio in the Highland Park area of Los Angeles…read moretoday. I did a drop in Hatha class and it was exactly what my body needed. There was a lot of street parking outside, but the meters will only let you pay for exactly 1 hour and the class is an hour. I was a little nervous I would get a ticket, but it ended up not being a problem. It says on the website for the yoga studio that there's a parking lot a block or so away but being from out of town and not having a lot of buffer time I didn't want to be late to the class so I risked the ticket. The class was about half full and I appreciated that the teacher always gave modifications for people who either were not able to get into a full posture or wanted to go further in the posture. I did think that the studio floor could've used a sweeping, but that's what my mat is for I guess! I could see a little dust, bunnies and hair on the floor while we were in some of the lower postures though.

It was the featured sound mediation that had us choose this class and Highland Park Yoga. So grateful for the experience which left both of us feeling reset and like bad bitches. Can I say that?

The experience truly was one of a kind.

I highly recommend practicing yoga at Greenheart.

You can find free parking on the street or nearby lot. I bought their 5-class intro offer and I got to try out classes taught by different instructors and different levels. Their staff and instructors are very nice. The studio is very cosy and warm. It is spacious and has natural light. I also like that they have three levels to choose from: beginners (1), intermediate (1.5) and advanced (2), where I found most other pilates studios only have beginners and advanced. There's also a head spa and a few cafe on the same street, where you can check out after the pilates.

this is the most greedy yoga studio i have ever been to, there is no reason to overbook this badly…read more i was new to this studio so when i first got there i went into the wrong room to wait. i wasn't told where to go or anything about the studio, but the front desk ladies were kind so i dont fault them at all. when i realized it was getting later and it was still pretty sparse, i asked them which room to go to and they directed me to the right one. it was beyond packed to where you could barley open the door. i stood there awkwardly with my mat and tried to find a space but there was nothing. the instructor asked everyone to make space but no one moved because they couldnt, everyones mats were basically riding on top of eachother, everyone was pushed up to their neighbors on the sides and in front. the instructor began anyways so i left after awkwardly waiting for another minute scanning the room for another space. it wouldn't have been an enjoyable experience anyways considering how packed it was and it being a heated class. i don't know how anyone had any room to do their moves. i was having a hard day and just wanted to do something nice for myself, and after looking for parking for 30 minutes, and commuting just to have to leave i was very disappointed. i don't understand how they are allowed to operate this way.

It is well rounded and there are always options and modifications offered. It is very welcoming and clean. There are cold plunges and a sauna in the outdoor area.

Now it is highland park and parking can be tricky especially if there is a filming crew nearby so just prepare for that so you don't have to rush.
