Yoga near Pacifica

“Cator changed my life around after a car accident, and in an ongoing way has helped my children and me through ups and downs. I feel calm and more clearly able to see the decisions I need to make in the space after a session. I enthusiastically recommend her to anyone I know who is looking for well being.“

“I was passing thru en route to start my yoga/meditation retreat. As a long time practitioner, I know how grounding yoga can be when traveling. Tommy, the owner of the studio keeps it real! The heat is dialed in, classes are fun & challenging and the community vibes are high! It was my first in studio class after several years of home practice and I truly felt inspired to get back into the hot room after taking Tommy’s 5pm 60 mins. Bikram class. I felt that euphoric high all over again! I wanted to go back the next day and ended up taking 4 classes in 2 days. I highly recommend taking the inferno hot pilates & yin yoga to complement the bikram practice.

The outdoor showers after a hot class are a nice addition to the studio amenities.

Thank you Tommy for your inspiration. It’s nice to take classes from teachers who have been committed to the practice and community over the years.

I will be back! I’m happy to call Pacifica Beach Yoga my home away from home studio.“

“Love these sessions. Keeps me calm and relaxed away from the working day. Instructor is very sweet and friendly, and takes good care of us.“

“After nearly a year of attending multiple classes per week with many of the instructors, I have only positive things to say. I found myself wanting to return to the studio daily.
The format of the classes, the energy of the instructors, the sense of community, and the convenient logistics all contribute to creating a virtuous cycle for fitness.

Here are some specific observations:
1. Each instructor brings a unique perspective, and in my experience, they complement each other remarkably well.
2. For Pilates: I've had the opportunity to attend several classes with Samara and Akiko. They run sessions that are accessible for newcomers yet challenging for more experienced participants. Their sequencing, modifications, and ability to read and manage the group's energy make them exceptional instructors.
3. For Yoga: The classes I took followed the Bikram sequence, which is fairly consistent. However, each instructor has their own distinctive style, so you're bound to find one who feels just right for you.
4. Logistics: The studio setup is highly convenient, from parking to restrooms, changing rooms, and lockers. With a wide variety of classes at all hours, finding a convenient session is rarely an issue. The only reason not to attend would be if you simply didn't feel like it--not because of availability or scheduling.
5. The community is outstanding. Both the owners, Samara and Sandy, and fellow students are incredibly supportive and always ready to lend a hand.
6. Pricing is also very reasonable, and the cold towels at the end of classes are a fan favorite!

At one point, I sustained an injury (unrelated to ELC). When I spoke with Sam and Sandy, they encouraged me to come in if I felt up to it, which I did. For several weeks, Sam personally assisted me with weights, mats, and towels (I couldn't carry anything myself), while other students helped with my crutches and kept me connected to my practice. I am deeply grateful--and perhaps a bit biased!“

“Dr. Ng is an amazing practitioner and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of chiropractic/acupuncture treatment! She helped me get back to my baseline after going through a traumatic knee injury. She was thoughtful, listened to my concerns/issues, and explained each treatment thoroughly.“

“Thank you to Moonsun and Sansen for incredible service. My partner had an incident during class and they were extremely helpful and navigated us through the situation as best as possible. I’ll definitely be back after this experience, this is a staff of very genuine, kind people. Thank you for everything!“

“Highly recommend Armando's studio for his yoga classes!! His studio has such a calming and welcoming environment & he is a great yoga instructor for all levels and clearly cares about his students and his practice.“

“This place is such a gem!! I got a 90 minute facial with Tonia and it was one of the best facials I've ever had. She works really hard to try to make the experience as relaxing and serene as possible and she does not disappoint! I left feeling so pampered and relaxed and felt like I was glowing for days. I highly recommend this place and I can't wait to book again!!“

“I love love love this studio! It is truly my escape that I use to destress after work and is full of amazing instructors that are both knowledgeable and helpful. They also offer morning workout classes that get me energized for the day. I also love that they provide all of the equipment you could ask for like the basics of mats and blocks to the more extra things like straps, blankets, mat cleaner, etc. It really feels like a community at this studio and I highly recommend!!“

“I am a dancer. I can thank Cook for her help in maintaining my longevity onstage. Her masterey of restorative yoga, gait (walking) coaching and her ability to work with my physical therapist for specific to me rehabilitative and strengthening practices have helped me be have less pain and more fun.“

“My 2 children have spent 2 full summers at Petit Pas. We didn’t even look to have them enrolled elsewhere because they have always had such an incredibly enriching and exciting experience.Virginie, Lena and all the staff at Petit Pas are incredibly gifted artists who are so passionate at creating the most fantastic environment for children to explore and thrive in all facets of acrobatics, dance, art, creativity and other forms of self-expression.The staff is also super dedicated to the wellbeing of their campers and keep their safety top of mind at all times.I fully recommend Petit Pas if you are looking for your children to emotionally grow and have wonderful experiences! I can’t wait to enroll both my children in next year’s sessions.Thank you, Petit Pas for not only providing peace of mind to parents but also for making such a positive impact to the lives of so many children. Bravo!“

“Quite spacious gym located inside the office building at Tower 2. I recently signed up after leaving my primary gym. I had some must-haves when joining a new gym and this gym met it all. It's super clean, spacious, all the equipment I need. For public access, there are no weekend hours but M-F they're open 5am to 9pm. Bonus, there is also free parking.“

“This was my introduction to reiki, massage and acupuncture. I worked with three different people and they were all engaging and educational in their approach.Community Well brought me to new levels of relaxation during my entire time and I left feeling more in-tune with my mind, body, and spirit than I ever have before.“

“First time visiting this studio, it is sooo cute inside!! Truly sets the vibe for a great class💕 I took the 26&2 bikram yoga class with Sandra G and it was amazing. She is a great teacher who welcomes everyone with love and kindness. Her dialogue is spot on and even with microphone issues she made it work! Can’t wait to try another one of her yoga or Pilates classes!!“
