Yoga in San Rafael

“Yasue is a healing goddess. I have been her client since March or April and my body is coping with chemotherapy and blood cancer better than I could have imagined. Yasue has a way of "listening" to my body that informs her work from session to session, so no two sessions are the same. Working with her is a deeply therapeutic experience. She listens, shares her wisdom and communicates with my body on a very deep level. I cannot recommend her enough.“

“I love my yoga at Embrace for many years now, from the Terra Linda small cottage to downtown San Rafael and shame on me for only giving a review now, years later. There is much to love about Embrace Yoga: from a very personable and responsive owner in Beth, to the breadth of yoga classes offered for the different yogis in us, the intimacy of class and the personal attention each of the instructor gives I find special. My all time favorite is Iyengar yoga with Karen Kukula because that's the style that resonates with my body the most. She's outstanding.“

“Such a warm and welcoming community with a great selection of yoga! Love the natural light, spacious and clean studios. Plenty of parking around, easy check-in, nice folks.“

“Julia Lorimer Yoga Center of Marin 518 A Tamalpais Dr Corte Madera, CA 94925 5.0 star ratings 6/5/2022 It gives me great pleasure to write to people interested in yoga. I think that Julia Lorimer is the best yoga instructor in the SF Bay Area. Her knowledge base is very broad and comprehensive. Yet for yoga class, all you need to do is listen carefully when she directs your body. I started a few years ago and I wasn't seeing results for over a year. The pandemic got in the way until we used Zoom. Julia gives us links to her classes. I made a point f taking her yoga class from a linked class and started a new yoga schedule, taking it at least 3's a week. My body transformed. I was so amazed that I developed "yoga butt." I am now stronger than ever. Julia has the amazing ability to combine her deep knowledge of a few schools of yoga, her deep understanding of kinesthetics, anatomy, physiology, and yoga poses that she brilliantly even sometimes invents. I have been in dance class since I was four. I have taken a ton of yoga classes all over the bay area and online. I will not take a class if it is not taught by Julia. One must attend class on a regular basis and once in class, just listen quietly and Julia will take you on the most exquisite yoga journey that will transform your body in an hour and a half. It is with the greatest pleasure that I urge you to participate in the best yoga workout you have ever experienced as you grow to understand your own body's strengths and limitations that will only expand if you remain rigorous with your practice. Please come and join us. Everyone welcomes you, especially Julia. Thank you, Melanie Hahn“

“Best massage therapist I have ever been to. My husband and I both used to see here regularly. I would still be seeing her if we hadn't moved. I have serious health issues that cause chronic pain and she helped keep it under control. I miss her. Haven't found anyone close to as good as Francoise, before or since.“

“I love Red Dragon Yoga. I lived in San Anselmo in 2017, the highlight of my days and sometimes my weeks were often intense yet super relaxing yoga sessions at RDY.I moved back this year (in 2023) and I was so happy to see that they had survived the pandemic, both personally and business-wise. They could not be more helpful in a customer service sense and the instructors are knowledgeable, experienced, deeply involved and extraordinarily beautiful people.Sarah at the front desk is magically positive and really "ties the room together." (Big Lebowski reference)I vote yes!“
