I normally watch the clock toward the end but I didn't feel like I needed to for this class, just reverted to child's pose when it felt like too much. It was ~$20 for a class which wasn't too bad. The only thing is it's all the way in El Cerrito which is a little too far for my liking. Anywhere further than my gym is a no-go for regular classes. My only exception is tennis (: but I digress, it's a good class and I recommend if you happen to be in the area.

The membership is affordable and doesn't feel obligatory to be here that many times to make it worth it. Just being able to move my body with instructors that cater to your own individual way your body feels to you instead of rigid "this is the way it's supposed to be" type of practice is my kinda yoga practice! The instructors are friendly and make it so welcoming each time I practice. Very helpful and good vibes all around!

Working with both Shannon and her colleague Sharon was such a healing, positive, and educational…read moreexperience. I started working with them both to rehab an SI joint strain that left my pelvis destablizilized. I saw them for a combined total of about 18 sessions learning exercises and pilates routines that gave me a solid foundation to continue healing and strengthening my body. In the end, I only quit working with them because I moved away from the area. If I still lived in Oakland, I'd be a regular to this day. They both have so much experience working with injured (and healthy) bodies that need strengthening and alignment. And, they're presence and kindness was so appreciated. I really appreciate what these two bring to the world.

The instructor was friendly, asked if i had any injuries she should know about. I did some footwork on the reformer, used a ball between my knees, did some movements with the handles and magic circle. It was a brain and body coordination workout that I wasnt used to. Did a couple variations of leg circles changing the positon of my feet. The instructor did do some hands in corrections. It was a nice workout to get in while on vacation.

I general, I like Green Yogi and have gone to several yoga classes here over the years. The…read moreinstructors have been lovely and over-all very positive experience with the studio and the classes I have taken. However, I would strongly advise AGAINST attending their T-groups. I will explain why: These are not lead by licenses therapists, however are intended for interpersonal problems to insure. That feels problematic in itself. Additionally, because the facilitators are not licenses therapists, there are no ethical code they legally need to abide by. What became worse was when it was revealed that the facilitator, Nasiem, turned out to be roommates and friends with one of the participants in the group. So, when there became an interpersonal issue between me and her friend/rommate, Nasiem was not a neutral party. I did reach out to Nasiem to discuss my concerns and she had the opportunity to respond to me but but I never head back from her. Because of this, I did not return to group. I feel comfortable calling out this situation and this facilitator in particular because I gave her the opportunity to connect with me and for whatever reason she did not. Would highly advise against the T-groups. Please reach out to me if you would like more information on my experience. I am happy to share.

The classes are…read moresmall and intimate, which makes such a difference in the overall experience and level of attention you receive. Every instructor is incredibly knowledgeable, easy to understand, and genuinely invested in helping you improve. I joined as a complete novice never having taken Pilates before and I felt so welcomed and at ease from the start. The instructors are extremely detailed and make the smallest adjustments while explaining movements so clearly. Proper form is such a priority here, which made me feel safe and supported throughout my entire pregnancy. I continued attending classes through pregnancy and attribute a lot of my quick and easy delivery to the classes I've been taking here. Now I'm continuing my postpartum journey with them and feel just as supported as ever. Such an amazing studio and community!

I've had such a beautiful experience with Move With Studio…read more I began with a private session, and it shifted the way I relate to movement in such a grounded, supportive way. There's a level of presence and care from the instructors that you can feel right away. You're guided with attention and intention, so you feel both safe and gently encouraged to expand. Moving into the group classes felt really natural. Each class meets me where I am while also inviting me forward. There's a quiet strength in the space. It's welcoming, thoughtfully held, and allows you to turn inward while still feeling connected. I've also been pairing the classes with FST sessions, and that combination has been incredibly supportive. The stretching helps release what the body has been holding, opens up mobility, and brings me back into a sense of balance. It's a space that genuinely supports your growth, not just physically, but as a whole. Whether you're just beginning or have an established practice, there's something here that meets you and helps you deepen.
