Whew! I just took the HEATED HIIT/Pilates class at the Dublin JOYA Studio with Nazifa. Yes, it was hot, and it was tough, but it was also exactly what I wanted! Checking in is easy. Weights, squishy Pilates balls, etc. are in the area where you check in. The Dublin studio is smaller than Livermore, but there is a bit more available between everyone in the class. The cooling towel at the end is always a welcome treat! read more

Joya in Dublin is one of four Joya locations in the East Bay. The Dublin studio is the smallest studio with only one room dedicated for yoga. My membership allows me unlimited access to the the tri-valley studios (Dublin-Pleasanton-Livermore). The fourth location is in Blackhawk. Membership to all four bumps up your price due to affluent neighborhood in Blackhawk. I can get everything I need with the tri-valley membership. read more

Best experience ever! I took the 75 minute Bikram with Beats class with Suzi who was amazing! The class was perfectly at my pace and I felt like the instructor really guided us through each motion in the poses to perfection. Suzi keeps you motivated the whole time which is what I need with heat classes. She's so kind and attentive too. Definitely going to become a member! Thanks you! read more

I love Joya Dublin! The only class that is going to consistently kick you into high gear for great shape is the Joya HIIT Pilates! My friend and I committed to a year together. Through that year, we thought that we would only do Bickram yoga. But during the first month, we decided to try all the classes and fell in love with Nazifa. We found that she was able to sculpt bodies the best for the work that we were willing to do. One year later, I have not changed my diet and have lost 8 pounds with as little as 3 workout classes per week. read more

I went for a just one class in Sycamore park in summers. And honestly it was pretty ok. I still want to try their in-studio classes for a better review. read more

Joya Dublin is a smaller studio with exactly one room to practice in, but I like that it's an intimate express studio. If you're looking for a hip modern studio you might want to check out the larger Pleasanton studio instead because this one is a lot smaller. I like their bikram classes and I appreciate that they still offer it despite it not being as accessible anymore. I do wish they offered more morning hot yoga classes at 6am which would be so ideal! I'd give them 5 stars if they offered more times for bikram, sometimes it's really hard to go at 7pm and come out at 8:30pm when its pitch dark out and by the time you get home it's too late to eat anything lol. The evening classes do get quite full especially the Monday and Tuesday classes so try to come early to snag your favorite spot. There's ample parking usually, although sometimes it can be scary to come out because it's dark in the lots with not much light to illuminate where you're going. read more

Love JOYA. Heated Bikram and Heated Vinyasa flows are great. Try their new Bikram with Beats class on Fridays, a little more fun than the usual silent bikram. Instructors are great. read more

I got the 10 pack classes. Wanted to try first before signing up for a membership. I have been wanting to go back to bikram yoga. The last time I have been doing them was about 5 years ago. I did it for like 1 year and a half twice a week and I truly lost weight. But We had to move houses so the location were too far from our new place. There were no bikram yogas I can find that's closer to home. Now that Joya Yoga opened few years ago, I was so happy. However that time, I got a new job and it was more hectic so I forgot all about it. Then the pandemic happened so it took awhile before I'm able to go back doing bikram. Been here twice at Dublin location. So far. So good. I love the staff, the instructor and the place is clean. This location is pretty small compared to other branches but this is the one closest to home so It's okay and fine with me. read more

I signed up at the Fremont studio with the 30 class. I have 28 classes left. I've left several messages for Greg and the studio. I even came by the studio when it said it was "open" but the door is locked. What is going on? I guess it's time to look for another studio. read more

Joya Yoga - Yelp says it's open, the website says it's open, the sign says open...but no one is here! - Yoga Near Me - Dublin, California

I highly recommend coming to hit Pilates. Nazifa is amazing her classes always exciting. I enjoy coming here definitely try it out for yourself. read more

Bikram yoga?! I have never thought I would try out doing yoga in the heat. Not just doing yoga in any heat but is in a room heated to 35-42 °C (95-108 °F) with a humidity of 40%. That sound hardcore to me at first but I knew I wanted to challenge myself. I have taken regular yoga classes before and trust me bikram yoga took it to the next level. My first class here was taken with Amy- she was very informative on what to bring to class/what is best to wear to class/and importantly how to handle being in the heated room during class. She was very patient with newbies like me and tries to fix our posture when we are doing it wrong. I really enjoyed the bikram yoga classes and I think it is a great way to de-stress and relax one self. I look forward to going to class here and I like the idea of how they put a cap for the classes so the room doesn't get too full. Try out Bikram yoga if you enjoy doing regular yoga! Challenge yourself :) read more

I love coming to this studio, the Pilates classes keep me looking svelte! Sharene is by far my favorite instructor! The care and effort she puts into each class is truly inspirational. I particularly look forward to her themed playlists and calm, yet uplifting aura. read more

(Similar review for another JOYA location) Part of JOYA yoga studio!! :) JOYA yoga has fantastic easy locations in Dublin, Pleasanton and Livermore in trivalley. This studio is medium sized and great warmth. Each teacher has their own flavor whether it be sharing a humorous experience during a challenging pose or tips how to help ones knees. Easy to sign up through the app and get in your class! Recently been on a hot yoga / buckram kick. Be sure to bring your yoga towel and mat! Also the security here is very safe. Also appreciate the community events, if I could just get to one :) thanks JOYA team! read more

Great little studio for Hot Yoga and Hot Pilates. Sherene, Nazifa, Amy, Dominic are all great instructors! I had a lower back injury about 2-3 years ago and believe, with 100% certainty, that coming to this studio regularly, has been instrumental in my recovery. Thank you. read more

Love love love joya! Especially the hot Pilates classes. Vanessa is an amazing Instrutor if you are looking for a challenge and someone to push you with high energy take her class! They are super fun. The staff is very nice and all of the facilities are very clean! Thank you! read more

The business owner Greg is not returning any emails and phone calls regarding class pass refunds when he decided to close down the FREMONT location and sent out the notification email ONE DAY prior to the shut down date. (Place shut down 3/10 and sent the email on 3/9, seriously WTF!) I understand there are business hardships and you have no other choice but to shut it down but for users who have been supporting your business in the past 5 years and buying class passes (used only 5 out of the 30 passes, it was $330!!), this is NOT COOL at all. DO NOT PURCHASE ANY CLASS PASSES AT THIS YOGA STUDIO OR ELSE YOU WILL BE REGRETTED. I WISH I CAN CONTACT MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY TO DISPUTE THOSE CHARGES!! read more

Amelia's power vinyasa class is awesome!! I like the heat & the faster pace of the flow as it really rounds out my yoga practice Amelia's coaching is clear , inspiring, and it supports me in realizing and standing in my power. I always feel so great afterwards like I was able to leave everything on my mat and feel really grounded.?I highly rec Amelia's power vinyasa class at Dublin. I'm hoping that an evening power vinyasa class will be added eventually, since I usually work during the day. I did Amelia's power vinyasa class for 2 years at Joyasoultv San Ramon site before Covid hit, and her class is consistently great!! read more

YES! This is the best place to do your BIKRAM yoga! I have been coming here for more than 2 months now and I've seen beneficial results for me. My neck & back pains were gone, I'm more limber, clearer mind, focusing well, more energy & stronger! Yoga teachers are the best too! Highly recommended! *It gets crowded sometimes so make sure you sign up ahead of time to save your spot. **Hydrate an hour before bikram yoga. Hydrating before the class will benefit you more. ***PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, DUDES, DUDES, DUDES!!! Clean your bowels before doing yoga so that you won't end up belching & passing gas during the class!!! read more

Hi Team, when will you reopen your San Ramon center? I would love to try Bikram Yoga but all 3 locations are a bit far for me.

I've been going here for about 10 months now and love it! I first joined because of a deal I saw online and was hooked quickly. They have four locations- Dublin, Livermore, Castro Valley, and San Ramon. There are different membership options and class card options. Livermore has cycle and aerial yoga! You can sign up for all classes on their app. The people working the front are usually really helpful. You can rent a mat if needed. I wish they had actual lockers at this location. It's cubbies and the front is all windows. However, they are good about having someone working the front or locking the door. I've never actually had an issue with something missing. At the Dublin location, the Hot Pilates and Vinyasa classes can get packed. Favorite instructors are Delia, Kristin, and Shortie. read more

I did the introductory week for $20 and I liked it. It's easy to find and plenty of parking. The yogis are not as snobby as the ones in SF and there is a wide range of fitness and age groups. I like the offerings for time at noon and late as 8p (although it feels weird to practice yoga so late in the day, it's great after an evening trail run!). I liked Michelle Deane's flow class on Monday at 8p the best. The classes are relaxing and can be challenging but everything is doable. It was perfect for me since I wanted something not as intense as traditional Bikram but something relaxing and something that would help me stretch my sore muscles after running. They are very responsive over e-mail. Thanks Get Fit Yoga! read more

I've been going here for 12 years, counting the previous and current owner combined. It's a beautiful facility, wide variety of classes, and instructors who are on top of their game read more

Pros: Groupon 20 classes for $49. Great deal. Location and times of classes are convenient for me. Cons: For me the studio has a funny smell, it could be the cleaning spray solution they use or it could just be the building which is on the older side. Kind of a moldy smell. Some of the classes get too overcrowded. read more

I've been doing bikram for several years, have recently branched out into some other forms, and I love this place! Deanna and Ravi have done an awesome job. The studios are clean and attractive ( I know, the Dublin studio is a little cramped), there is a wide variety of classes and times, the instructors are without exception knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and they even include extra touches such as handing out cool eucalyptus scented towels after the hot classes. I've done yoga at a number of studios in the area snd around the country and while most of the studios have been fine JOYA really stands out. read more

Note: Decide what type of yoga you want to do before coming in for a class. If you dont know the different styles, read about them first. Was looking to dive into an occasional yoga class to help supplement my other fitness. I have LOW flexibility so I started with Yin/restorative. I highly recommend that for people who want deep, slow holds with an almost meditative feel. The people were nice and accommodating. They have had substitute teachers for both classes I have taken which is ok for me because you get slightly different styles even for the same type. The studio is not large but not small. They have tools there for you to use, blocks, blankets, etc. Not sure on the mats but I bet they have them to borrow/rent. They have option for monthly membership which seems like a good deal if you'll go 2+ times a week. read more

I have been attending Joya Yoga since November of last year and I love it. I go to the Hot Pilates and recently the Power Vinyasa classes. All the instructors are fantastic and bring something different and unique. Nazifa is funny and so motivating. LOVE her! Sharene is fun and upbeat. Always great music. Took one class with Amelia and she is so positive and uplifting. Will be a regular in that one too. I hear they are possibly relocating/expanding in Dublin and hope it is true. The classes are popular and sometimes we are pretty darn close to each other. Great vibes always! read more

Finally received a response from Greg after I sent a follow up email a week after my original request to cancel,and advised that i would be contacting my credit card company to dispute any further charges. He did cancel my subscription, but no mention of any refund for services not rendered. I would not recommend ever doing business with this company, or person. read more

This was my first time trying Bikram Yoga, or any other form of yoga for that matter, and I'm so glad that it was at this studio! The studio itself is very clean for being a place where people sweat (a lot) in it all day. The floors are matted so they can be cleaned easily, there are mirrors on 3 sides of the room, and the walls are painted a soothing lavender. They offer different class styles throughout the day, but I've only attended the Bikram ones. I've attended classes where Greg (the owner) and Noshy were the instructors; their teaching styles are different but they're both extremely nice, they put you at ease and try to help everyone, even if the class is full of people at different levels. I also love that this studio has so many introductory offers that give beginners a chance to see the benefits of hot yoga. ________________________ I am in no way an expert, but here are some tips I thought were helpful when I first started out: -If you are unsure if yoga is for you, take the beginner's class on Saturday's. It's free!! -Take advantage of the free week and the new student promotions that they offer. -Bring your own towel and mat. They have mats for rental, but after all the sweating you'll be doing, you can see why you want to have your own mat to use. -Read up on how you should prepare yourself (hydrating with lots of water, not eating right before your class, etc.) for your first few classes. read more

The first time I tried Bikram was at Get Fit Yoga and I thought it was the hardest thing I had ever done physically. 3 months later I am officially hooked! I've noticed significant improvement in my breathing, flexibility and overall health thanks to Bikram. I was also suffering from back problems and stress due to sitting at a desk job all day but those are now non-existent. Each instructors style is slightly different so if you prefer one way over the other you have options. - Greg: I think he is the best instructor overall and great for first timers. He gives detailed instructions on all the poses and talks you through how each pose should correlate with your breathing. Also, he really gets to know his students by name so he can personally correct you, if needed, to improve your pose. - Noshy: Fun, great guy. His style is more narrative and enthusiastic. Does a great job at pushing you to go further on your poses. He also likes to pass on little, personal stories or learning tidbits. - Jamie: He has a more quiet style. He'll walk you through the pose initially but then stays silent for most of the pose. If you prefer an instructor that speaks throughout most of the pose he may not be the choice for you. The first time I took a class with Jamie, several of us didn't know he practically "sings" at the end of some of his pose instruction, so that got quite a few of us laughing - Darla: I considered her the most militant of all the instructors which I could see might turn some people off but I found her quite clear to follow. Definitely not recommended for first timers, but if you come frequently her clear and concise instruction method might work for you. The studio itself is spacious but if you prefer a certain spot in the room (ex. by the door to stay cooler) get there at least 10 minutes early because classes are hardly ever empty. Classes occasionally get packed but they always manage to fit everyone in the room comfortably and they never turn anyone away, even if you're late. Also, I highly recommend bringing your own mat and towel, as well as a water bottle. You can rent / buy these at the studio, but with all the sweat that goes on in class, it's probably most hygienic to use your own. read more

I came here based on a referral from a friend and after my first class with Delia I was hooked. Delia had such fun music and she took the time to meet with me after class to give me personalized tips for my workout after giving birth. However I couldn't keep going to evening classes because of childcare. I should preface this by saying I hate working out and all my life have quit every class I've tried because I have lost motivation or felt it was too hard. I am proud to say I've been coming here every week for several months now to Nazifa's hot pilates class. Nazifa is wonderful as well. She keeps me motivated and has a great energy. She's also very kind and sweet. I look forward to coming to get classes every week. It is my mommy vacation each week. read more

I love the people here! Both the teachers and the other students are so enthusiastic and engaging. In the non-Bikram classes, there's a lot more conversation going on between the teacher and the students and it feels more personal. It feels like a community of friends and everyone is encouraging people to work hard. Even in the Bikram classes, the teacher, Noshy, usually tells some funny stories and even takes time to correct some postures and make sure everyone is doing them correctly. I really enjoy the classes here and I notice myself improving! The only thing I don't like about this place is that the only Bikram class I can make is on Sat, Sun, and Mon :( because I have work past 6 :/ It's because of this that I haven't signed up for more classes yet, but I'm already starting to miss it so I'll probably do that soon.. so if they could make some more classes at 8pm that would be AWESOME! :) read more

I'm in a zen mood. Lucky me received a SpaFinder Wellness 365 gift card. I found Get Fit Yoga on the SpaFinder Wellness website and signed up for yoga classes. I'm happy to have found Get Fit Yoga bc I've enjoyed all the classes I've taken so far. I know that GFY is known for being a bikram studio, but that's not really my cup of tea. However, they have other types of yoga classes which I do recommend. What's great about GFY is that they have a great course schedule. There's a lot of variety and classes to choose from that could work with anyone's schedule. They also use the Mind Body Connect website so that you can view classes and sign up online as well as make your payments through auto pay. Very convenient! You can also find detailed info on the classes, types of yoga and instructors on their webpage. The studio itself is small and sometimes classes can get full quickly. However, they always make room for people, so you just have to get a little comfortable being close to neighboring yogis. Most of the classes I've been to so far haven't been unbearably crowded where you're packed in like sardines, so no complaints. They have props available for everyone to use as well. I do really like the padded flooring in the studio as I have sensitive knees for the kneeling positions, so it helps. I don't have to double up my thin mat or bring my thick Mandukka one to practice. Meditative music is played during class which helps get you in the zone. So far, I have only been to two classes, both taught by Intructor Michelle Deane. Let me preface this by saying that she is amazing! I have been practicing for over 10 years and have had my fair share of awesome instructors and she is among my favorites. I very much enjoy her Yin Yoga class which is for all levels. She will give options for modifications so everyone can practice at their comfort zone. I like that she does provide the challenging choices as well. I feel as though I do get a good workout from this class and it has helped me build strength and flexibility. Michelle is encouraging and also mindful of the students. She always starts the class off with asking if anyone has injuries or limitations so she is aware of the student's needs. Michelle is also the epitome of what a yoga instructor should be like in terms of her calming tone and speech throughout class and during meditation. The other class that I've attended was Restorative Yin Yoga. This class focuses more on deep stretches, realignment and restoring balance to the body. I would take this class as a supplement to a more active yoga class or after a cardio session at the gym. It's a good way to wind down. Or - if you have had a long day or just are feeling like you need to get rid of any stiffness, this is a good class to take. Out of the two, I'd prefer Yin Yoga just bc I like to get a little sweat going and do some vinyasas. If you're in the Tri-Valley area, Get Fit Yoga is worth checking out. It's in a strip mall with easy parking. Their membership and class prices are very reasonable. There are different packages that you can choose from as well. I believe they have a yelp check in offer too! From one yogi to another... Namaste. read more

Ok, so first time trying out Bikram Yoga and had such a great experience. Dublin's very own yoga studio and it's tucked behind Casper's on Village Parkway. Open studio with comfy flooring. Clean women's and men's area and things up front for purchase such as yoga mats. There is a place to put your shoes up front as well before entering the separate room (studio) through a door. The Studio is spacious without making you feel like a number. Large window in back with great ventilation and mirrors all around. Not a lot of decor which is nice and the colors are soothing. Greg the instructor works fast, so make sure you are content to deep breathing and listening. Although he talks pretty fast, he let's you work at your own pace which is great. I was able to push myself on certain poses as well since he gives tons of good praise when you get it. The environment is a great learning environment too if you're a beginner as you can easily see what's going on around you and take cues from all. Cannot wait to come back. I ran a 10k the day before and weathered my first Bikram class with no problem. Don't forget to sign up on the website for your free week. read more

This was my first time doing Bikram Yoga and I couldn't have asked for a better studio. I was definitely nervous because I'm not a very flexible person to begin with and this was my first time doing Bikram. However, Greg Ja, the instructor, was absolutely amazing - very patient and motivating. I would recommend this class as well the studio to yogis of all levels. read more

Although I can't always find the time to go to yoga, I feel as if Get Fit Yoga is my home. I love the studio and feel comfortable and centered there. I've been doing yoga on and off since high school and have just started to regularly attend yoga at least once a week two years ago. I've been at Get Fit Yoga for about a year now and this was the first place I had ever done Bikram. While Bikram is not my favorite style, the instructors keep me coming back. I especially love Noshy, he's down-to-earth and his hilarious stories will keep your mind off the sweat dripping in your eyes. The studio can get a bit crowded when they run Groupon, Livingsocial, etc. promotions, but I can't complain because I'm all about the good deals since they're the reason I can afford to come back, too. Get fit yoga is definitely my yoga home base. read more

I've taken two classes so far. Ana's Candlelight Samadhi Flow class was my first one and I felt at ease being a beginner to yoga. I came back two days later for Greg's Bikram class and the studio was filled. I enjoyed both classes and will be trying other ones. Both instructors scan or walk the room to make sure your posture is correct and will tell you how to go deeper into the posture if you're more advanced. So don't be intimidated as a beginner. Both times I left feeling relaxed and the tension from my shoulders were lifted. For sure I'll be coming here over and over again. You can go on-line and view the schedule which gives you a description of the class. You can even sign up on-line. There's a separate changing room for men and woman so stop by right after work. Bring your own mat, towel and water. If you forget, you can rent up front. The back of the yoga room has cubby holes to put your personal belongings in. read more

Great yoga studio! Bikram is one of the best things I've done for my body since I started endurance racing two years ago. This place is very clean, has a very simple and tranquil decor as well. The teachers are very well informed and provide excellent attentive instructions, great for beginners. read more

Let me start by saying I am never good about going to the gym, I find it monotonous and draining. Not to mention being ogled by dudes who only care about flexing in the mirror and lifting too heavy hand weights has to be one of my least favorite things to do. On the other hand I love to swim and ride my bike but I was never really an athletic person. I am still relatively new to yoga and I've already found my general stress level to be down, seen marked changes in my body (and others have to!) and I now have muscles, especially in my arms, I never noticed before. My fiancé says everyone has those muscles but I'm doubtful as they seem to have appeared as if by magic! My moods are improved... Not to say I ever exhibit anything remotely resembling a sour disposition . I even got through my... errr, "sensitive week" this month without biting anyone's head off, I was so relaxed it'd come and gone before I even knew I'd missed it! Which I'm sure my man is more pleased about than anything, heh ^.^ To be honest, coming to Get Fit Yoga was my first yoga studio experience. I have practiced at home with DVDs and the like but, for a beginner, nothing compares to instruction from a teacher who can motivate and correct the postures (asanas) so you get the most out of your experience. On that account the studio shines! The staff at Get Fit are encouraging without pushing you too hard and helpful without making you feel like you're an eejit. The $10 for 10 deal is pretty sweet and I've already brought a couple friends since they always see me checking-in. What can I say? I'm excited go back and I want to share that energy with my loved ones and for $10 trying it out is practically risk free! It's great because no matter their age or occupation those who come seem to really enjoy their sessions. I have attended classes with friends my age and those nearly twice my age, I wish my 18 year old cousin lived closer because I feel doing yoga regularly is an amazing self-esteem booster. Feeling good about who you are right now and feeling positively motivated to better yourself is important at any age. "It's never too late to become who you might have been." I had one of the other students tell me they felt as if there had been only younger people at one of our classes, I told them I'd thought it was a good mix and that the people I find myself the most inspired by are in their 40's and 50's. Talk about not judging a book by it's cover, their flexibility and stamina are incredible and their grace and good humor takes my breath away at times. It's a community of beautiful individuals, inside and out! Half the classes offered are done in a heated room but that doesn't mean you're out of luck if you don't think you're up for hot yoga or Bikram. I really enjoy all of Islena's Hatha classes and Kathleen's Gentle class Thursday mornings is the perfect start to my week. I own a small business in Pleasanton and tend to work very late some days and early others... I also don't normally get weekends off. There are enough choices at Get Fit, heated and otherwise, that I've been able to find several classes a week that I can work around my schedule. I have even attended one of Lisa's 5:30am classes! That's super early for me as I often work till 9 (and sometimes even later) but it is great for my friend who works a corporate job as it still gives her time to go home, take a shower and ride her bike to work. This studio is great for someone looking to improve their strength and live a physically healthier life but it also has something to offer for those of us who are looking to find a closer connection to themselves, god, the universe... a grounding. In Yoga you use the earth beneath you to stabilize and draw yourself up, support that is steady and reliable. Not so much in life is. My practice gives me a deeper understanding of my own strength. There is so much more I could say but just like the Reading Rainbow, Levar Burton of my childhood used to say, "...don't take my word for it!" See you there! read more

I have been practicing Vinyasa and now, power yoga (heated and non-heated classes) at the Dublin studio for several years, and it's amazing of how much I am still learning. The instructors are incredibly nurturing, patient, and highly trained and experienced. Every week, I look forward to the Vinyasa lunch classes with Amelia and Jen, power yoga with Amelia and yin with Edie. It's a no-frills studio, clean and has tons of different classes to try from. read more
