Yoga near Daly City

“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!!“

“Great yoga studio! The schedule is abundant (there are lots of classes throughout the day during the entire week, much better than most other studios I've been to). The instructors are very good and the owner is very nice and reasonable. The showers/changing area is a bit tight; this could be remedied by having a row of open showers (as opposed to thick wall dividers in between) and knocking down the wall between the sinks and the changing cubes, making for a more open layout.“

“Dropped in while I was travelling through San Fran. Incredibly welcoming team, a fantastic location and awesome gym full of everything you need to get a workout in. A real shame I wasn’t staying longer!! Well done guys 10/10“

“Had a great experience here! Instructors are super friendly and knowledgable. Highly recommend.“

“It was a really nice , no pressure experience for me being my first time doing yoga. And I spent the rest of the day feeling more relaxed than I have ever been.“

“Love this studio last time I went I forgot my mat and the teacher went to blocks to find me and tell me. Forgot again and the human at the front desk helped me get it even though a class was going on they had to go around back and sneak in for me. Also, CLASS was amazing!! Would rec healing warm place“

“SIM is a very unique pole dance studio where you are encouraged to focus on movement that feels good to your body instead of focusing on how you look in your movement (there are no mirrors). This place is very special to me as it’s a space where I can truly unplug after a long day of work and leave feeling rejuvenated. The studio has amazing teachers who teaches with so much heart and are very supportive. This movement is much more than just pole dancing and how you choose to experience it is entirely up to your choosing. Thank you to everyone at SIM who has created and continues to hold this safe and judgement free space while honoring the fact that we are all on our own unique journeys.“

“Great classes! May Mei and Adrian are excellent teachers. Would recommend to friends.“

“Hot yoga is an incredibly important aspect of my life and the location I go to needs to be great to support that. I took their introductory one-week special and immediately signed up to continue classes for the foreseeable future.I've taken classes with Alex, Rikk, Haleli, and Genie and am so excited to have found this spot.It's wonderful because all of the staff are pleasant and wonderful people which has the yogis catch the same positive feelings, the instructions are clear, understanding, and help me maintain my center, and the room has everything you'd need to hop in and get going.I love it here and I'm sure you would too :)“

“This is my favorite yoga studio. I have been going here since before Covid-19, and the studio still has maintained the same relaxing and healing atmosphere. Fatima and Jen are my go-to instructors, but any class you take will give you the workout you didn't know you needed. Love it here and will always keep coming back for more yoga sessions!“

“Small studio, great teachers, and great energy! Love the variety of times throughout the week.“

“Took a transformational class with Eric today. Great blend of movement, mantras, and music. I left feeling relaxed -mind and body :)“

“I really liked this yoga studio, especially heated yoga is the best. Sometimes its just really crowded, and there is no own space. And if its your first class you get rent a yoga-mat for free or you can actually buy one. Overall ??“

“Glow is the best! Glow has been essential for growing my yoga, Pilates, and meditation practices through a wonderful range of class offerings. Beautiful studio. Inspired atmosphere. Outstanding teachers. Welcoming community. An oasis in North Beach.“

“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!“

“The Pad is a great studio! I like it because it is close to my house, parking is relatively easy and they offer many different classes everyday. I feel like post-covid, many yoga studios only offer a couple of classes a day and I appreciate having more options. It is a very calm and relaxing environment and folks of all levels are welcomed and challenged. The teachers range from very good to really freakin' awesome - there are a couple who clearly know their stuff and have a lot of experience to share.“

“Wendell is skilled in their ability to attune to the body's tissues so that your system is met with the appropriate amount of intervention. They are able to assess and treat simultaneously with a clear depth of anatomical knowledge. This type of treatment helped me to become more aware of the state of my system and health.“

“came here from classpass and im so glad i did it, probably one of the best yoga classes in my life. chris is knowledgeable in correcting my form and posture and super professional and passionate about yoga and meditation. i really enjoyed the experience. i also love that it's a small class, only 4 of us, chris was so kind he shared with us some food after and everyone stayed behind to chat a bit. i really like this community kind of feeling and can feel that chris poured his heart to run the place, i would recommend everyone to come join the class and rhe place is lovely and cozy :) thanks so much!“

“Brian is the best yoga instructor ever! My sister is going through really serious health issues and she enrolled his class only couple weeks ago ,l can't believe how quickly she recovered from meningitis and muscle aches! she is doing so well now! We can't thank enough for Brian &BodyTonic !“

“The Noe Folk yoga studio is a cozy space with welcoming teachers. They have a variety of classes from Power Yoga to Restorative to Sound Bath. All the props are brand new and clean. I like that you don't have to pay $$ to rent mats etc. If you live in the Castro like me, it is definitely worth the hike up the Castro Street hill!“

“I have been attending classes at Folk in Bernal and Noe for a few months now. Very friendly and accommodating staff and teachers and great variety of classes. Great locations!“

“Phenomenal yoga studio. I can’t recommend it enough. I would give it 6 stars if I could. Has changed my life.I started yoga 3 months ago for the first time and attended regularly. In my first few weeks Steve and Gary went the extra mile to help me learn the poses and the breathing. I wasn’t able to do the basic poses. My head was full of thoughts and I was distracted and uncomfortable.In just 3 months Steve and Gary took me from 0 to doing the full Ashtanga primary series while relaxed and focused. Besides all of the poses I can now do (lotus, handstand, headstand, and a lot more), I leave each class feeling amazing. My body and mind feel dramatically better all throughout the day. This dramatic improvement would have been impossible without their dedicated guidance and effort.I don’t think I could have asked for a better experience. The music and vibe of the place is also amazing.Thanks so much Gary and Steve!“

“I've been practicing yoga with Armando for 5+ years at this point. I love his vinyasa flow yoga -- it's meant for all levels, so there's lots of helpful prompts and hands-on adjustments (if you're comfortable with that), but he also gives options for extra challenges (if that's your speed). It's not "hot yoga", but he has heaters that keep the classes at a nice toasty warm temperature. Recently I've been going to the yoga wall classes. This is a unique experience. I love the feeling of inversions, and this provides a good outlet for that. Yoga poses are done against the wall, against gravity. I think I'm decent at yoga, but the classes kick my butt. It's challenging completely different muscle groups and requires a different type of strength. The classes are very diverse and inclusive. Forget any stereotypes of the typical waifish woman. In class, there's all ages, genders, body types. Particularly for the yoga wall class, I've been impressed by how there is an older/senior demographic, but I realize that everybody gets something different out of the the yoga wall classes. While I'm looking for a core-strengthening challenge, others are looking for a yoga class that takes pressure off their spines, relieve back pain, etc. On nice days, he may occasionally have his vinyasa flow class outside. (He will have updates on his Instagram/Facebook if that is the case.) My favorite routine is to go to his class on Saturday morning, and then get a bite to eat afterwards at Cafe Alma a block away. I can't say enough good things about this studio!“

“Marc is tremendous; everything you want in an instructor, warm, energetic, knowledgeable, positive, and someone who genuinely cares about you.“

“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!“

“Apologies to Michelle and the business for my last review.Michelle is a wonderful person and she did reach out to me and we sorted thinks out.I will try to remove the previous review but in case I am unable to do so please disregard it. Thank you“

“3.5/5 - Convenient yoga studio in the Potrero neighborhood. Purchased a pass of 5 and attended a variety of classes. I liked yoga instructors Michelle, Zoe and Elise - their classes had a good pace, vibe and poses and they provided modifications to make it easier/harder. The class maxes out at about 10 people comfortably and I enjoy that it's a smaller class but there was one time that it felt tight for space. My biggest knock off the rating is from a morning class I attended where there was a lot of hair and dust around me which was distracting. I'd suggest the studio does a vacuum before each class. Tip: the heater is at the far end of the class (by the changing room) which will blast on and off throughout the class so I wouldn't recommend setting up there if you run warm.“
