The studio is very nice and clean. but what really sets GLO apart is the quality of its instructors…read moreand multi level classes from meditation to Yoga Sculpt. All the instructors are not only highly skilled and professional, but genuinely passionate about what they do. You feel that energy in every class epically with Monica and Sarah.

The studio owner Terik is incredibly welcoming and always goes out of their way to make everyone feel at home. That personal touch makes a real difference. Whether you're looking to build physical strength, or find a deeper sense of peace and balance, GLO is the place to be. I recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone on a journey to improve themselves -- body, mind, and spirit. Show more

Over three years coming here but I wanted to share a health benefit I've never experienced before …read more All my life I've been lifting heavy weights and I've been fairly muscular for the last thirty years or so. My HDL cholesterol number have always been lower. It has jumped up from the thirties to 62 in the last year after I started more vigorous yoga like sculpt from Moji and Bikram from Jamie.. I'm still able to bench 315 pounds once a week because yoga works on my small muscles . All heavy weight lifters have sore shoulder joints which yoga has helped me overcome greatly . But sculpt and Bikram is not easy especially at 72 but I try my best to get through the class.

I was a long-time yoga practitioner at Joya Dublin. Due to the pandemic and a nagging shoulder…read moreinjury, I stopped for a while. I discovered Joya Pleasanton offers a free Sunday vinyasa class and took a couple, and realized how much I missed yoga in my life. Joya Pleasanton offers a variety of modalities - vinyasa, bikram, Pilates, barre, and HIIT type classes. I take vinyasa and wish there were more j flow vinyasa classes on weekday mornings but I get it, I'm in the minority! The vinyasa instructors have all been excellent - positive, encouraging, and always thoughtful and creative in sequences. The care team is always friendly and they do a great job keeping the yoga rooms tidy and fresh. Parking at Joya Pleasanton can be tricky. It's best to check the schedule and see when classes get out before your chosen class begins. Try to arrive a couple mins after patrons leave. (Here I am, given away my parking secrets!) If that seems too complicated, get to class at least 15 mins early in case you need to circle the lot or find street parking around the block.

I don't recommend this studio. Classes are poorly organized, room temperatures are either too hot…read moreor too cold, and parking is difficult. Tried it years ago and cancelled my membership, hoping for improvements but was disappointed again. It is unfortunate that Pleasanton doesn't have options to practice a traditional yoga.

Sadly, I'm thinking seriously though of ending my $229/month unlimited membership because of the cancellation policy. If I wake up and see that later meetings have been booked for me, and I can't make a 5pm or 6pm class, I feel that if I opt out of the class by 9 or 10 or 11am for that evening, that is ample time for the next person in line (usually a wait list) to be psyched to have secured a spot. To be charged $15.00 when that happens doesn't seem equitable. They've easily filled the spot -- and they are charging a cancellation fee. Life happens, and I understand if people just don't show up. Charge them. I strongly request and encourage ownership to consider 6 hour window, instead of the current 12 hours. Went to bed last night feeling a migraine coming on. Cancelled at 9:30pm for my 9am class this morning and woke up to a $15.00 charge. Policy needs to change, or I'll have to try another venue.

Unfortunately, this studio has gone downhill over the past year. Classes are frequently canceled…read morethe day of or at the last minute, which makes it difficult to rely on the schedule. I regret signing up for the year-long unlimited membership because I realistically only take about two classes per week, as there are very few classes offered later in the day, (and zero on Wednesday afternoons). The ones that are available fill up very quickly. That said, there are a couple of great instructors here--Lyn and Joon are both fantastic and make the classes enjoyable. Overall, I'm disappointed with how inconsistent the studio has become and would hesitate to recommend this location.
