As a physical therapist, I am very picky about the quality of instruction at any studio or class I attend, and it is very hard to find good instructors. The ones at Breathe are a good bunch! Being part of this studio inspired me to do yoga teacher training after 17 years as a yoga student. I would highly recommend this studio and this yoga teacher training for anyone who is looking for high quality instruction.

Her class pushed me farther than I have gone in my yoga practice, but was delightful! The other students were also very welcoming which isn't always common in smaller boutique fitness studios. All around truly added to my love of Ojai. The $30 weekend pass is so worth it! This will be my yoga home from here on out when I visit Ojai.

Each of her teachers has a fabulous flow - their systems are mostly vinyasa based, along with varying degrees of heat. Ellen is an acolyte of Baron Baptiste. The space is elegant, Zen, intimate, and the opposite of Bikram's militant uber gym vibe. Great sequences, lovely space, excellent teachers make this the best yoga for us!

Simply, the best…read more... I met Rosemary a few years ago, when we had just moved from the Bay Area to the Ojai area. After taking the first class with her, I told her 'she was the best teacher I ever had'... I have now been practicing with her for the past few years, and my practice has not only strengthened physically, but I am more connected to my practice holistically and as another reviewer stated, 'soulfully'. She truly brings a unique gift to her students, regardless of their experience - and treats everyone with honor and grace for the journey they are on... Her retreats are also fabulous - I recently went to Tassajara (my first yoga retreat) - she has such a great sense of humor and puts the participants at ease to allow them to really enjoy the whole experience!

I've been blessed to study yoga with different teachers since the 1980's…read more I search for a combination of what I call "strength and soul building" and Rosemary's classes have both. Guiding the student to work hard, smart AND gentle all at the same type is an art she has mastered. Like other reviewers I have done several retreats with Rosemary, each one a delight for the body and the senses. I agree with and take the liberty to repeat the words from Shaun's review: "Rosemary's yoga is impeccable. Having the opportunity to receive detailed instruction from her gentle, soothing voice and light presence is a gift I can barely put into words. There is no pressure in her class, only guidance. It's a strength building class when you need it and meditative at the beginning and end to seal you in bliss." If you get a chance, RUN don't walk, to Rosemary for a class, retreat, or private session.

Mihaela offered to conduct a class, personalized to me, and suggested we conduct the session in one of the B&B gardens - a great setting with a little waterfall. This was one of the best, and most unique, yoga classes I've ever taken. Combining conventional yoga with qi gong and Tibetan Vajrayana Yoga (I've never done the latter two), Mihaela led me through a true mind-body workout, helping me cut through emotional and physical blocks. I'm not a particularly spiritual person, but I found myself emotionally awakened/clarified from her class. I feel a sense of indescribable gratitude that I carry with me...
