I've only begun going to this studio- i'm very new to Yoga, though I know it's something that is very good for my body- but so far I've been very impressed with Kula Yoga. They are very nice people- wonderfully patient instructors. Eddie is laid back in demeanor, played reggae music at my first session, but lead us through a demanding and fun workout. Nati and Paulina strike me as maybe more traditional instructors- both leading a workout that was spiritual as well as physically demanding- Nati ends the sessions with a sound bath that is wonderful after the effort. I appreciate all 3 instructors. The studio is the perfect size, has mats and everything necessary for a beginning student (a yogi?). I already committed to going there for the next 3 months- something I hadn't been inspired to do at the other two studios I sampled. Kula means community and I think they've made a nice community here in Chula Vista- even inflexible lawyers like me are welcome! read more

A hidden gem in the heart of Chula Vista. I loved my experience. Shani is a great instructor and the community is very welcoming. I will definitely be a regular here. The facility was clean and a quiet place for practice. I was definitely challenged and looking forward to coming back. read more

I am absolutely new to yoga. I mean o tried it here and there but never consistent . I came here for a trial run and let me tell you , the instructors are so caring and patient and just awesome . I experienced 3 different instructors and they each bring a different flavor to the practice and I love how they change it up. I am going to acquire a membership and I suggest that you also try this great spot. So healing and beautiful .... read more

Kula Yoga, is one of the best Yoga studios in the city. Eddie and his fellow instructors are helpful, knowledgeable and super passionate about Yoga. If your looking for a great Yoga studio. Look no further! read more

I've been doing yoga since 2010 and I've had three studios in that time that truly made me feel at home. I was so sad leaving the last place when I moved down here, especially after trying a couple places and being underwhelmed. It always takes time to find your OMies, your new tribe, people you feel chill with but also respect to guide you. I have found that here... it's enough challenge, community, and uplifting vibes to put anyone in a good mood and get your muscles growing and your aches disappearing. Everyone strives to be friendly and inviting who comes, and all of the teachers are respectful, passionate, and genuine. Pros? Schedule is late enough in the day during the week that most can make it in time after work Downtown location with plenty of parking nearby Clean environment Variety of teachers Welcoming to all levels Jokes are a-okay! Beautiful community of regulars Lots of community involvement Yoga challenges with prizes Beer yoga events at local breweries DJ nights Cons/tips: I wouldn't mind having a Sunday evening class to start the week! Miss having blankets, bolsters, tennis balls, chairs as props like I had in my last studio read more

"Kula" meaning, "Community" describes the positive vibes at this gem of a studio. During my search, this is one of the few "boutique style" studios in the south bay. I've taken various yoga classes in LA, SF, Hawaii, and Seattle, Kula offers one of the most competitive prices. The teachers are welcoming, attentive, and genuine in guiding you through your yoga practice physically, mentally, and spiritually. I've been with the Kula Family for a little over a month and have made substantial progress in my practice. Classes average 3-5 people, which allows all levels to get personal guidance from the teachers. Free and easy parking in the parking structure across the street. Clean studio with beautiful artwork in a fun environment. Namaste : ) read more

The community feeling at this studio is one of the best I have ever experienced in my 7 years of practicing yoga. The classes are challenging and rewarding. The instructors are helpful and caring. The other yogis are welcoming and fun to be around. I am so grateful to have found a place to practice yoga since moving to Chula vista in July. Each teacher has their own style but the classes will work up a sweat, and work on your confidence, strength and balance! read more

Yoga and Beer days are exactly how I want to start my football Sunday's! The owner Eddie is super friendly as well as the instructor Sonia. Check them out, you won't be disappointed. read more

Joined the two weeks for $20 deal and after that I knew I had to get the membership and be part of the crew. It's a place to expand your practice no matter the level with the help of awesome teachers. They help with adjustments and always encourage growth. They also host events with live music at the studio, yoga & brew on Sundays and yoga challenges on the gram!! Class hours are good too. One in the morning and one in the afternoon (perfect way to relax after work!). If you're thinking of a yoga studio to join, definitely come check this place out and be part of the cOMmunity !! read more

I looooooove kula yoga. Im a super fresh beginner at yoga, seriously im not good. But the instructors are super nice and helping and encouraging! The studio is a super intimate space and everyone makes you feel super comfortable even if u happen to fall. ( i fall atleast like 3 times a session) Love you guuuuuys!!!!! read more

Ya boy Zuni here checking in writing a quick review for Kula Yoga. If you're looking for a fun, welcoming and challenging yoga studio look no more Kula is your final destination. They have awesome 4 yoga instructors who provide hands on adjustments if needed. Always enthusiastic to guide YOUR practice and provide you with many variations and alternatives to a pose you can't YET do. Don't have a mat?! No big deal they have plenty of mats you can borrow at no cost. Along with blocks and straps. Don't play yourself paying over $100 a month somewhere else when you can come practice at Kula Yoga and find your dishtri (focal point) on the beautiful local art they hang on the walls for far less money!! Also follow them on Instagram : @kulayogasd And follow your boy Zuni too: @zuuuni_ Thanks for your time, Namaste read more

I have been practicing at Kula Yoga for a year now and my yoga practice has reached flourished. It is all thanks to the dedicated instructors that aid you to strive in your yoga practice. This place is a Great asset to Downtown Chula Vista! read more

Kula Yoga - Yoga Near Me - Chula Vista, California

This has quickly become my favorite place to do yoga in San Diego. It is a beautiful small studio in the heart of downtown Chula Vista. The classes are vinyasa flow and each teacher (Eddie, Paulina, and Sonia) is excellent and knowledgeable. They each bring their own unique style to each class and no two classes are ever the same. They offer encouragement and alignment, which is much appreciated by this beginner yogi. The classes are small so you really feel like you are getting the right amount of attention and the most out of each class. The music they choose to accompany each class puts you in the zone and has become one of my favorite reasons to show up to class. Other favorite reasons are that I leave class each time feeling energized and npt to mention zen-like. The prices are reasonable starting with a 20$ for two consecutive weeks introductory offer. They also offer different packages at very reasonable rates to continue. You really feel like you are part of a community when you come to Kula Yoga. Everyone is welcoming and engaging. And I can't forget to mention special events at the studio such as live music yoga and art shows. All in all, I will be happily making Kula Yoga my go to studio to practice. read more

A bit hard to find at first -- entrance is in the BACK of the building, OR you can enter through the fruteria facing 3rd Ave and head to the back towards the bathrooms to access that entrance. I took a 90 minute 'Weekends Warrior/ Vinyasa Flow' class on a Saturday with Eddie. Tight room and a popular class, so it was filled to capacity. The 90 minutes went by in PURE focus since the moves and holds required such concentration. I may look strong, but I am by no means flexible nor am I a yogi, so these moves were causing me to sweat and shake like no other! Eddie was gentle in his corrections and came around CONSTANTLY to correct form. LOVE the kind of sweat that yoga produces -- your skin just feels so cleansed! It goes without saying that you should bring your own mat and even your own accessories if you so desire because it did not seem like they had extras. If you are seeking a challenge then you will find it here! And a good community as well; Eddie made sure to let me know about all their community events and it seemed like such a tight knit community. If I were in Chula Vista more and not always out and about, I would have felt right at home. read more

Great place to get your yoga on. Great instructors with a variety of yoga classes. Eddy always keeps you sweating. Dont worry if you are a beginner or an expert, classes are very flexible and the instructors help a ton if needed. read more

If you're a beginner or novice at yoga, this is the place to come gain experience. They offer a wide range of classes, and even provide yoga in español for my hispanic friends. Their instructors are kind, warm, and make you feel as though you're their best friend. They help adjust and guide you through each posture to make sure you're practicing correctly at your own pace. After I completed my first session, I felt like I've gained the knowledge and experience as someone who has practiced yoga for months. This yoga studio offers much more than just a physical experience, it also offers a mental, spiritual, and outer body experience. If it were possible to rate this studio with 10 star rating, I would. #KulaMovement read more

This yoga studio has great vibes, and the instructors are great. They take the time to go around with adjustments, and they care about their students. I Would definitely come again. Highly recommend this yoga studio to anyone who wants to take their practice further and just want to relax and unwind. read more

Kula Yoga is one of Chula Vista's greatest modern gifts. At Kula Yoga's heart, lies the pulsing, vibrant energy of love from the community, curated collectively by each of its members. Eddie Bustamante, Kula Yoga's founder and Kula's primary passionate yoga guide, has cultivated a space that feels open to both the yoga newbie, the most seasoned of yogis and everyone in between. Kula Yoga offers a unique yoga and self-care experience, in which student and teacher meet on an even level; there is offered the peaceful acknowledgement that everyone in the room, including the yoga instructor, is a student - a refreshing concept for many of us who have observed advanced yoga poses and thought, "I could never accomplish that." Throughout the various styles of instruction from the rotating Kula Yoga mentors (all of whom have their own lovely charm & unique pace), there is a core emphasis on attuning one's attention to the interplay between breath, movement and space, lending itself to a wholesome, refreshing experience in which the community is encouraged to breathe themselves into the synchrony and stretch most suited to their bodies. One might argue that, as a community leader, Kula encourages thoughtful stretching as a metaphor for thoughtful, self-aware living, but perhaps that this just my interpretation from my visits. Beyond the yoga guidance itself, the studio is clean, well-maintained, with walls lined in local art, available for purchase, which contributes to the sense of local community support, comfort and integration. Both morning and evening classes are available, and, as Eddie is interested in cultivating a healthy, bolstering community, all suggestions regarding classes, styles, and potential events/deviations from the typical schedule, feel welcome. All in all, I would highly recommend Kula Yoga to anyone who is looking for an integrative, inclusive yoga experience. read more

Really great place to practice yoga! tried the $20 New student promo and the promo entails unlimited classes for 2 weeks, such a great deal I must add. Paulina and Eddie are amazing instructors. They give clear instruction and will gently adjust you if necessary on your form. All in all I'm very happy with kula yoga and highly recommend it! read more

Amazing studio! Each instructor brings their own personality and style. A very welcoming environment and a loving community.

I love coming to Kula Yoga. They got me interested with the two week unlimited deal, but the instructors and community of other yogi students is what made me stay. Each instructor has their own vibe and flow. The small studio on Third is great and everyone knows each other and is very welcoming of others joining the class. They also are also involved with the community and have a fun Detox to Retox class where they collaborate with Thr3e Punk Ales a few doors down. Can't go wrong with Beer & Yoga! read more

Kula yoga is the best place to do yoga! Eddie is an amazing instructor and the studio is lovely. Super welcoming, even for beginners. Go here if you want to experience the best! read more

Studio is conveniently located, great instructors and very good experience for beginners. I have tried both morning and evening classes. The evening class is great since I can make it after work. You won't regret giving Kula yoga a try! read more

Highly recommend this yoga studio. I love everything about it, the studio is beautiful and the location is easily accessible. I was searching for a local yoga studio back in April, I signed up for the two week special and I've never looked back! The teachers are all AMAZING and know their stuff! They're great with beginners like myself and will help you with your practice at whatever level you're at. They are all so welcoming and friendly. I'm so glad I found a studio that I'm comfortable and happy at! I've seen so many changes inside and out and I've met some wonderful people too read more

This is my favorite place to be! It is a beatiful, small studio, next to fruteria in downtown Chula Vista The atmosphere is one of my favorite parts... it is a small studio with local artists displaying their work. Well, what about the yoga instructors? The best!!!! Kula yoga has friendly and encouraging yoga teachers. read more

Kula Yoga is more than just a yoga studio, it is a community that will foster growth. Eddie the owner and his crew will carry you through an amazing experience each time you are in the mat. I own a gym and Eddie has taught a dozen or more classes here. Our members love him and the amazing healing service he provides. read more

I LOVE yoga, and I LOVE Kula! I have practiced off and on for many years at a wide variety of places. When I have been on a "break" from yoga, usually it's because it doesn't fit into my budget or schedule. Kula has reasonable prices and is basically in my backyard... parking is never an issue. The only time it is, is when I end up staying to long after class chatting and my meter expires! The studio is so welcoming you instantly feel like you belong. Class sizes are small so you get individual instruction which also makes it the perfect studio for any level. The instructors at Kula are what make it special. They are encouraging and knowledgeable... you never feel intimidated or out of place. They have helped me improve my practice and gave me the extra encouragement I needed to pursue my yoga instructor certification. Kula is my "happy" place... you should try it! read more

Waited to post to experience each instructor and each class offered. -The location: Off a busy street so parking isn't that great. We usually get there right before the meters stop running so that we don't have to pay. If we attend an earlier class we park at the garage behind 24 hour. We saw the sign right away but didn't notice the sign where it clearly states you have to walk thru the fruit cantina to get to the studio. -The studio: Humble Beginnings Opened up March this year and I believe soon they will need a larger studio. It is small but inviting. They provide mats and have cubby holes to place your belongings. Because it is right next to the Fruit Cantina, the music played can be heard thru the thin walls but not at all a problem when you're in your zone. -The instructors: They each bring something different to each class. They are all helpful and walk you thru each pose if needed. No one there is judgemental and they all seem to want to help. Which is great when you're recovering from a back surgery like myself. I walk out each class sweating but so relaxed. I have invited friends who are new to Yoga and have also liked the experience and continue to come. Oh and a must!! The candle lit relaxation class on Fridays!! Get there early! Space runs out quick for that class. -The Price: AFFORDABLE!!! My partner and I payed $20/each for 2 weeks and just recently paid $60/each for 30 days unlimited classes. Try finding great deals like that in SD. **oh and plus...the yummy Fruit Cantina as soon as you step out of class. read more

I met Eddie and his team a few months ago when I performed my yoga album during a morning class that was EXTRAordinary. The vibes are super elevated and the sense of community expands your my heart. I highly recommend that you visit and have an amazing yoga experience at Kula Yoga. In gratitude, DTO of Buddha Music Group read more

Wound up here as a result of a canceled class at another studio. Wow, what a blessing in disguise that was! Eddie is the nicest dude ever and the instructor Sonia was great. I definitely sensed a real close vibe between everyone there, which was cool to see. For $20 for the first two weeks do yourself a favor and drop in for a class. read more

First yoga class ever. I was nervous going but as soon as I got there Eddie was the man, made me feel good that I went. The class was serene and made me feel energized and happy after. Booked another right after will continue going. I worked muscles and stretched way I never did before well worth it and you will sweat. Great studio. read more

Kula Yoga is fabulous!! Such a wonderful community addition. I would highly recommend to anyone.

There aren't enough words to express my gratitude to Kula Yoga's team for their guidance in my practice. I don't only progress more in each class than in any other studio I've been before, I also feel welcomed and part of a family just take a class, I'll guarantee you'll come back for more read more

Great staff and an excellent and calming atmosphere.

I've driven by this studio numerous times. I finally got courage to go and WOW was I blown away! I signed up for the 2 weeks for 20 (best deal around) and I've gone about 7 times already. It's a very clean studio with very cool art on the wall. The vibe is definitely yogi! I took the owners class Eddie and he's the best. Great teacher, clear instructions, gentle corrections and whether you're a beginner or expert this class is for you. The other instructors are amazing as well Darek from Poland is a must try class too! I will be returning for more sessions for sure! read more

It doesn't matter what level you are at, this place will make you feel right at home. i started as as a beginner and continue to grow in my practice thanks to Sonia and Eddie. Its small but full of love and positive energy. The instructors are awesome and they have classes throughout the day to meet most schedules. Love it! read more

My mom and I began going to Kula yoga for about 2 months now (daily if I may add) and it's incredible to see how much we have grow in flexibility, strength, awareness, and stillness of ones mind. Each and every instructor is unique and are willingly help you at your own flow. They make you feel at home, and most importantly like you belong somewhere. The location is also great. Since my mom and I go at 7am we do not have to pay for street parking, and if I may add Fruit Cantina also serves great food! read more

This is a wonderful and authentic yoga studio. It's the kind of place where the staff remembers your name and no matter how inflexible you may be during poses, they always encourage and offer support. As a lifelong runner and multisport athlete with bad knees and hips that don't want to flex, I've found a studio where I can grow in my yoga practice however limited that may be at the moment. Having craft beer joints next door is an added post-class bonus! read more

Eddie and Paulina have such great passion. I tried Kula Yoga for the first time the other day and I cant wait to go back.
