Really love this place! I have been practicing yoga since 2010 and am a yoga instructor myself, so am a bit selective when it comes to studios and teachers, but this one totally meets my expectations. The teachers actually pay homage to the history of yoga and most will use Sanskrit terms. They are welcoming and friendly, and have two rooms to practice yoga. I really love Andrea's classes, but all of them are good and have their own personality, so it's about choosing which one that works with your schedule or vibe. Most of the classes are heated, and they have a variety of classes from restorative to heated vinyasa / power classes. Oh! And for savasana, they hand out these cold towels drenched in lavender and it is so amazing and I look forward to it every time! My schedule is a bit limited w kids, job, grad school, but when I can, I try to make it to the studio! read more

I've been practicing yoga for over 25 years with a background in contemporary dance, and during that time I've experienced countless studios. Whenever I travel, one of the first things I do is find a local yoga studio because my practice is such an important part of my life. In the last decade, KEFI Yoga is one of only two studios I've found that truly exceeds my expectations. What sets KEFI apart is that it honors both the spiritual roots of yoga and the physical practice. Classes never feel rushed, transactional, or designed solely as exercise. There is a depth and authenticity here that can be hard to find. Every teacher I've taken class with has been knowledgeable, thoughtful, and skilled. I've attended many different classes and have yet to encounter an instructor I wouldn't happily return to. I also deeply appreciate the care and attention that Angel, the owner, has put into every aspect of the studio experience. It's clear that she genuinely understands what makes students feel welcome and cared for. From the slippers and complimentary locks for the lockers to the thoughtful restroom amenities like deodorant and hair ties, every detail has been considered. The lavender towels at the end of class and the tea blends offered at the entrance (not to mention the non-toxic products for sale) elevate the experience even further. Everywhere you look, there are beautiful touches that make the studio feel warm, intentional, and special. It has an almost spa-like atmosphere while still remaining a place where serious practice and hard work happen. The environment simply makes you want to be there. As someone who has practiced for decades, I notice these details, and I appreciate every one of them. Judging by the consistently full classes and devoted community, it's clear I'm not the only one who feels this way. KEFI Yoga is truly something special. read more

Summary: A heart-led, joy-filled studio where warm hospitality, creative flows, and a welcoming community make it easy to feel at home the moment you arrive. First Impression: The moment I walked through the doors, I was greeted by Angel's beautiful smile (warm, welcoming, and full of life). Right away, I noticed the self-care station stocked with essentials: Complimentary hibiscus tea, baskets of fresh fruit, coffee, and wellness items. I had forgotten my yoga mat that day, and without skipping a beat, Angel provided a complimentary mat, yoga towel, and sweat towel. Her generosity is off the charts! The Space: The studio feels easy, welcoming, and designed around connection, making it easy to settle in and feel at home. Students were chatting and greeting each other like family. Before class, Angel walked me into the room and showed me the warmer and cooler spots so I could choose what felt best for my body. The Class (Heated Flow with Angel): Angel opened class with a beautiful reminder: The only rule is to make conscious choices and use the breath as our anchor. It's not how deep we move into a pose, but how deeply we breathe within it. She reminded us to lengthen the exhale, explaining how a longer exhale helps reset the nervous system. From there, we moved through a creative breath-to-movement flow with arm-hold transitions I had never experienced before, and sequencing that demanded concentration while my body warmed up and opened. Throughout class, she sprinkled in humor, small pieces of wisdom, and little moments from daily life. At one point, she jokingly called out for cold towels, then laughed as she went to grab them herself. She's just a delight! Before closing with a long, juicy savasana, cool towels across our foreheads, I was lucky enough to receive a back massage. Afterward, everyone was invited into the lobby for tea and fruit. One of the reasons this experience resonated so deeply with me is something I often reflect on: Moving through embodied temples to learn how space, breath, and community shape consciousness. Throughout class, Angel gently reminded us to breathe, to let the breath guide our responses, not just here on the mat, but later when answering an email, returning a phone call, or navigating everyday moments. Her message was to carry that same presence with us, finding a little more kefi not only on our yoga mats, but in daily life. 2nd Class: I'm usually a yoga-only fan, but Ariyana Tykinski's Nighttime Heated Glow-Galates was a fun change of pace. Her energy is absolutely electric, and the glow-in-the-dark, high-energy space makes the whole class feel playful & alive. It's a music-driven workout with yoga sprinkled in, and her enthusiasm is completely contagious! Studio Vibe: Kind, welcoming, & joyful. The word kefi represents joy, enthusiasm, and passion, and that spirit is truly felt in this studio! Would I Return? Absolutely. Even though this studio isn't the closest to me, I'll happily make the drive often. The energy here is simply too good not to return to. Practical Notes: Free parking is available in front and behind the building. Cold towels are offered at the end of class, bathrooms double as changing rooms, and showers are available for a small fee. read more

Kefi Yoga - Little Kefi room - Yoga Near Me - Torrance, California

My favorite yoga studio in the south bay ! They offer a wide variety of classes. Great beginners classes and some fun hand stand workshops etc. I've came here a few times before the remodel and recently visited again after remodel. It is so different and nice well the studio was nice both times haha. I really enjoy the hot classes and hot pilates. Everyone is super nice and always free to answer any questions. The studios are huge but classes fill up pretty quickly, so always be on time to get your spot. At the end of class they offer cold towels and also have wipes to clean down your mat and any equipment used. Parking is okay its kind small but can always park in the lot in the back near the liquor store. 10/10 always recommend this place to people! Cant wait to book another class soon. read more

My review is for Roxy's yogalates class! She is hands down one of the best instructors I've had, this class is so fun and the staff is always friendly! It's a mix of yoga and mat Pilates, Roxy keeps the flow going with her motivation and the great music she plays! Her class will kick your a**, but it's worth it! I can't wait to go back! read more

I should have over 100 check ins in this fabulous place, but I'm more focused on getting my shit together! LOVE THIS PLACE AND THE INSTRUCTORS! One of the best yoga places I've been to. Everyone is so welcoming and shows how much they care for you. Be warned -- you will become a part of the family once you join this community. read more

I was new to Yoga 2+ years ago the instructors were incredibly helpful and tolerant with my lack of understanding and ability of yoga itself. These are great classes and would recommend it to both the experienced and rookie individuals. read more

I used my ClassPass points to try the beginner yoga class and appreciated being able to rent a mat and towel for just $2. It's been a while since I've done yoga, so I had a bit of trouble following some of the instructor's moves and cues. Still, it was a good experience, and I'd definitely come back after getting a little more practice or personal instruction. read more

I've been taking classes at Kefi for the last 2 months. It's been about 10 years since I was regularly going to hot yoga classes and I was little anxious to get back into the habit of doing yoga again, but I'm so glad I found this yoga studio! I feel mentally healthier and calmer everytime I take classes with them. First time I took a class with Imari, and I was tearing up for the first time while doing yoga and felt so much stress free after the session. It was an amazing experience for me! I regularly take Carla's unheated classes and I LOVE it so much that I look forward to her classes every week. The owner of the studio, Angel, is very friendly, funny and also an amazing yoga instructor!!! I just purchased the unlimited membership with them :) Thank you Kefi and the amazing instructors for great yoga classes that you provide to the community! read more

Grateful to have this studio locally in the South Bay ^_^ It's always so well-maintained, clean and smells nice, all the instructors are so welcoming and extremely knowledgable. Exercising can feel like a pain at times, but this studio makes it feel so enjoyable that I always look forward to coming here to get a good work out. It never fails to make me feel refreshed and renewed, both physically and mentally! read more

My favorite yoga studio in the South Bay! When I moved here I started on ClassPass and tried out a few of the studios in this area but ultimately settled on a membership at Kefi. All of the instructors have a wealth of knowledge and you can tell that they enjoy teaching there. You truly feel like you are part of a community when you go to a Kefi class. There are thoughtful touches like hair ties, iced tea, and apples in the lobby area. I appreciate the diversity of class offerings from more intense workouts like yoga sculpt to the gentler yin and restorative classes. A big fan of Roxy, Andrea, and Carla's classes. If you are a newcomer, come at least 10-15 min early so you have time to park and sign in. read more

I am absolutely in awe of Kefi Yoga. I was looking to try hot yoga for the first time and I came across Kefi. From the moment I walked in I felt the hospitality and warmth (no pun lol) from the instructors and the studio. Angel (the owner) and her team are AWESOME! The studio is SUPER CLEAN at all times! If you are looking to try heated/unheated yoga, this is the studio for you. I am truly grateful to have found it. read more

I really enjoyed my experience with Kefi yoga trying their 3 classes for $30 deal. I just admittedly am not a big hot yoga/yoga person so this was my first experience and everyone was very lovely. My only two complaints would be that my very first class coming in I felt like they didn't give me any direction as a new person on what to grab and where to go. I just copied what everyone in the class grabbed (2 blocks, a kneeling pad etc). Second it was very hard to understand the direction from the beginning yoga instructor, she has a rather strong accent which made it hard for someone like me who doesn't do yoga very often to follow along. That aside she was a very sweet and attentive teacher and I enjoyed her personality a lot. If you love yoga I would highly recommend this place as it feels cozy and charming compared to other yoga places I have seen. read more

Good instructors. Nice place. I only do restorative yoga and I lik that they have a lot of time and day options compared to other places. I'm super busy so they always have night classes that work with my schedule. read more

Sometimes, this is the highlight of my day. Cheaper than therapy and healthier than motorcycles.

Andreas's Friday morning vinyasa is a staple in my weekly routine--the best way to start my weekend, and I look forward to it every time. Her seamless flows let me focus on deepening my practice, and I leave each class with a clear mind, a calm soul, and a thoroughly stretched-out body. Thank you, Kefi, for creating such an amazing yoga space. I am so grateful to be part of the community. read more

As a yoga enthusiast for many years, I was excited when my favorite instructors from CorePower started their own business with Angel as the owner and facilitator of its branding. I am all for supporting entrepreneurs and this group of talented teachers have created a terrific yoga space to meet a variety of needs. Highlights for me include: -Time is taken for correction -Teachers make efforts to create personal connections with students -There is a camaraderie amongst the staff and students -The variety of heated and non-heated classes. -Yin yoga classes are valued. I do not leave many reviews, but felt motivated tonight to write this. I wish to share my gratitude for the opportunity to practice at and support Kefi Yoga. Check it out! read more

Amazing vibes. Amazing people. I had my first hot yoga class here and I've been coming for the past 3 months! They have heated and unheated classes, and are friendly for beginners and for those more experienced. All of the instructors are amazing and very welcoming! The only con is that there are no showers. They have free parking in the back and they close the doors when class starts, so make sure be there on time! read more

Okay, this will be a series for each instructor, buckle up!! ROXY She's hands-down the most versatile powerhouse instructor ever. I've been to her yoga sculpt, vinyasa, and yogalates classes and they are all exceptional. Music: she does an amazing job curating a setlist for class that's vibey, R&b, hip hop mixes that consistently pump me and many, many others up. It's super easy and fun to go to the beat with her flow! Instruction, modification and direction: she's so on point with this. She does an incredible Job offering modifications for anyone with lingering injuries or for newbies getting into the flow, while being mindful of anyone who's wanting a bit more of a challenge in a pose or sequence. It's clear and easy to follow as we get the most out of class! I and many regulars literally rearrange schedules to make sure we can get into her classes, and I've gotten amazing results feeling more toned and sculpted with all of her awesome strength building exercises that kick ass. She's a leader and works intentionally to build community, make everyone feel welcome, and to inspire change and transformation, while being so down to earth and approachable. 1,000% recommend. read more

Kefi Yoga is an amazing studio. The energy and vibes are wonderful, the yoga room is clean and beautifully warm, the owner is kind and involved, the studio communication is great, and the instructors and classes are great. We have tried multiple studios locally and love this one the most. My husband is officially addicted now, after having dabbled in this the last twelve years with me. The tea and aromatherapy are such treats. We love Carla, Roxy and all the other classes. Thanks for everything, keep it up! ‍ read more

I've been going to this yoga studio weekly since over a year now, and it has been an incredible experience. The atmosphere is serene and welcoming, making it the perfect place to unwind and focus on mindfulness. The instructors are highly skilled and provide clear guidance, tailoring classes to different skill levels, which has helped me improve my practice significantly. Each session leaves me feeling rejuvenated and more connected to my body. This studio has become an essential part of my routine, and I can't recommend it enough! A big bonus is that that give free fruits and tea drinks as well as hair tie and Bobby pins. read more

The staff is wonderful! Extremely welcoming, knowledgeable, personal and fun. Just moved cross country and it feels like home already thanks to Kefi. read more

My first yoga class here and it was hot yoga - 104 degrees and 40% humidity! Even though I was struggling in the beginning, I like how the instructor (Imari) knew when everyone needed to rest and also when they can push themselves a bit more. The affirmations and the conversations she had with us was very genuine and uplifting. Definitely want to try more classes in the future. And dude they have silent disco nights and stuff too - so excited for that! :) read more

Kefi is life-changing. It's unlike any other yoga studio I've experienced in LA and instantly felt like home. Kefi is community in the most genuine sense, wellness practice taught by incredibly talented & nurturing people, a place where on the other side of physical & mental challenges you find deep peace. It's reprieve from the demands of the world and the kindest thing you can do for yourself. Kefi is the reason I've continued to consistently show up for myself in my yoga practice, and want others to experience it for themselves. Thank you Angel and the amazing team that makes Kefi! read more

Kefi has been an amazing experience. I've done yoga elsewhere but at Kefi it's fun an inclusive. I've had fun every time I'm here and I always look forward to coming back! read more

Fantastic owner and classes, if you haven't gone, give it a try! If you have gone, go back and see what's new

The instructors at Kefi yoga are awesome! I started here my third trimester of pregnancy. I took the unheated classes and the instructors were so kind and helpful by offering modifications. The studio is very clean and welcoming. I will be back postpartum. Thank you Kefi Yoga! read more

I used to be a regular at Yogaworks in El Segundo years ago, but life happens as you know, and I fell out of my regular yoga practice. It's been years since I've gone to a yoga studio as a regular, and since pandemic, I've tried several times to get into a regular routine, but I haven't been inspired until I stepped in to Kefi Yoga. The welcoming energy hits you as soon as you walk through the doors. The studio owner Angel greeted me like an old friend, set me up with a loaner mat and mat towel, and down to yoga business we went. After so many years, the aches and discomfort that come along with old forgotten movements were there, but the heated room melted all of my inhibitions and I was able to find my old rhythm again. An hour later, filled with endorphins and a sense of accomplishment, Angel was waiting with electrolytes, hibiscus tea and her own home-roasted coffee. Being welcomed into the studio like an old friend felt like coming home. Not only is the studio very well maintained and impeccably clean, their staff is patient, knowledgeable and open to beginners and all levels. Their 11AM classes are unheated and go at a slower pace, which is great for those long work days where I have to conserve my energy, yet burn off stress and anxiety. Their weekend classes are perfect for me to challenge myself and try new things. I'm looking forward to sticking with this practice for a while! Thank you to Angel for creating such a safe and comfortable studio and I'm so grateful I found Kefi Yoga! read more
