I drove by their sign, and decided to give them a try. They have a $7, 7 day trial deal, which is helpful. If you think you pulled up to a brown law office building, that's the right place. I was so relieved to see a big parking lot. The short haired woman greeted me with a big smile, and she was my teacher. The space is very clean and inviting. They have a very spacious locker room with a few showers!! The class I attended was not crowded and we got personal attention. The teacher was kind and subtle about correcting me, which I welcome. I am a beginner and I never felt unwelcomed or embarrassed. My schedule doesn't allow me to have a monthly membership but they have a punch card which still will save me $$. read more

So Excited about Align Yoga. I knew that I should be doing Yoga for a variety of healthy reasons. But.... never quite committed. Then Align opened in my neighborhood. I signed up for the 7 days for $7 to be sure I could stick with it. Day 1&2 were what I was expecting. Tonight I had the opportunity to work with Lorena individualy, it was such an exciting, eye opening experience. I'm hooked, in 45 minutes she had me set up with a series of exercises that are directly tied to addressing an old injury and improving my stroke. Specifically my Spey Casting stroke. Sure I'll be doing meditation and yoga, but in my head I'm getting ready to compete in the World Championships at Spey-o-Rama. By spending just a few minutes talking with me, Lorena tapped into one of my passions and made Align Yoga part of my training. read more

This place is great! I enjoyed the hot 60 l. I tried the hot90 and it was a little too long for me! The owners are very kind and personable! The facility is clean and the prices are fair! If you are looking for a yoga studio in PH I recommend it! read more

I have been going to align yoga for a few weeks now and I can't tell you how great it is! I have been doing a lot of the hot yoga. The teachers are very knowledgeable and actually show and tell you how to properly do the poses. In comparison to CorePower yoga for the hot yoga this place is so much better to deepen your practice as a yogi. The only slight downside is that there are only 3 showers. So if you need a shower after hot yoga I recommend being the first person to get your things and head that way. read more

Align Yoga is a great studio. The workers are extremely helpful and the facility is clean. I've tried Holly, Danielle, and Marcia's classes. They each offer different workout styles and all are amazing. I Purchased the two week pass for $50 it's a great way to introduce yourself to Align Yoga. The things that stand out to me the cleanliness, organized classes, and friendly customer service. I love it here! read more

This place is great!! I am new to hot Pilates and Danielle has made this experience amazing! She is an amazing teacher, full of energy, motivating to the max, and always brings the heat with the best play lists! It's not always easy to show up to exercise after a full day of work, but I look forward to these classes every single week. I come to class, let go of the day, and reset. I leave feeling accomplished and sweaty to say the least. Thank you Danielle for pushing me and making this experience great! read more

Danielle is an amazing inferno hot Pilates teacher . Each and every class has great energy. You can tell she absolutely loves what she does. We have a crew that goes and it is a blast each and every time . We love her read more

This place is amazing! Inferno hot Pilates and strength fusion are my favorite classes and have helped with my running so much. My core, hips and glutes feel stronger than ever. I feel more solid and my muscle imbalances are quickly fading. I also love that it's bare foot and my feet are getting a workout too. The instructors are fabulous! Larissa and Kristin are encouraging and give you constant feedback on your form. From side planks to wide leg burpees they keep you coming back for more. The heat took some time to get use to, but now I look forward to it. Also, started drinking electrolytes during class which have dramatically helped. The workouts are hard, but not so draining I can't function the rest of the day. These workouts are perfect to supplement with running or cycling, and help get you stronger without all the impact. I definitely recommend whether you are a beginner or experienced athlete. read more

This is honestly the best yoga studio I have ever been to. It is clean, everyone's friendly, and the yoga is awesome ! All the teachers are wise and practice what they teach. This place is inspirational and I would recommend beginners and advanced yogis ! read more

Amazing studio, great teachers, decent package deals, fantastic location. This is overall the best studio in the Pleasant Hill/Concord area. Would highly recommend it for people searching out a new studio. read more

This place is fantastic! The studio offers a really nice variety of classes from super chill Yin Yoga to high intensity Inferno Hot Pilates. I joined about 9 months ago and have taken every single type of class they offer and have seen improvements in my strength, balance, and flexibility. Also, I used to have frequent back pain -- it is completely gone now. The instructors are all great and super friendly but I have to give a special shout out to Danielle Raab who is flat out amazing! She brings it all. Her classes are super challenging but she makes it so much fun. Danielle is so positive and encouraging. She knows every student by name and really develops a personal relationship with everyone in her class. She helps each and every one of us challenge ourselves - no matter where we're at. Students in her class range from super buff young men to senior women. I am a 58 year old woman and when I started, I could only do about 1/2 the class. Now, I can do almost everything the whole time! She is excellent at teaching proper form so that we don't injure ourselves and get the maximim benefit from the workout. Going to her class is always the highlight of my day -- it feeds my body and my soul. read more

This review is loooong over due! Such a clean welcoming studio with welcoming instructors. I love the convenience of the class times, it makes it easy to show up if you have a hectic schedule like mine! BUT this review must spotlight Danielle! Her and her class (inferno hot Pilates) have truly changed my life! She makes you feel super comfortable and she WILL remember you even after one visit. Super dedicated to her students and just overall wants to help you achieve whatever it is your goals are. She loves feedback and most importantly LISTENS to her students!!! It's challenging, but incredibly rewarding! Joining this studio has been such a blast the last 6 months, you won't regret it! read more

Joined this studio almost solely due to Danielle's Pilates class. She is so much fun and such a knowledgable, hilarious and motivating instructor. 10/10 highly recommend! read more

I've been to many Bikram yoga studios through the years -- from Bend to Boulder and many in the Bay Area. I found Align yoga studio on Google as I was moving back to the Bay Area. I had to wait until it was safe to be back in a hot studio but it was definitely worth the wait -- and the way Dash and the staff take care of the studio (sanitizing and cleaning) made me feel comfortable to practice in a studio while navigating the challenges of the pandemic. This has honestly been one of the best studios I've been to -- all of the amazing instructors are dedicated to the practice and the space is great. I'm glad I have selected this community . Thank you Dash for bringing your expertise and grace to us everyday! read more

Such a great yoga ‍ studio. I started going here after having my daughter Brooklyn. It brought me peace, calmness and self-confidence to get back in shape. Also they have wonderful meditation classes. I wish I had all the time in the world to devote to a yoga practice. I envy those that get to teach. Definitely a chill studio with wonderful teachers. read more

Disclaimer: I teach here. This studio is fabulous; the thought, care, time and love that was poured into this place is evident in everything. There are manduka rental mats for only $1 each, beautiful, clean & well-stocked showers, two drop-dead gorgeous studios, great sound and heating systems in both studios, ample parking, lockers, koa wood benches, a fridge full of post-yoga treats, a water bottle filling station, a lovely selection of tastefully branded retail items... The owners have truly created a corner zen sanctuary in a busy business neighborhood -- the perfect little slice of peace for beginners and experienced practitioners alike! read more

I live right down the road from Align Yoga! I drive past often wondering about the studio and finally made the decision to try it out during their two week promotion(and hip hop yoga class)! WOW I am so glad I did! I used to do yoga a lot before moving to California.....got pregnant, my husband and I had a baby, and I didn't do yoga for over three years! Worse mistake! When I knew I wanted to get back into it I tried a few different studios, but nothing that made me passionate again. This studio did just that, it is AMAZING! The instructors are incredible and the vibe is great! I 100% recommended this studio for anyone looking read more

Best yoga studio in Contra Costa! Great teachers and is always clean! The classes are fun!

I just did my first class here (90 minute hot) and it was outstanding! The studio is very new, exceptionally clean, and they have a great locker room with showers. Kent was very welcoming and lead one of the best hot yoga classes I have ever taken. The class size was smaller so we were all able to receive great attention from Kent, which always makes me feel like I get the most out of the class. The pace was perfect for all levels and I cannot wait to come back to try one of the other classes they offer. They also have an app which makes scheduling and purchasing memberships so easy! There is a parking lot right out back so finding parking is not an issue at all. I will definitely be back to Align and highly recommend it! read more

Ok so the first class I didn't really enjoy. It was traditional Bikram Yoga, which isn't my style. I love their hot fusion classes. At first they only had them at 6am a few times during the week, and some weekends classes. I was sad about that. However I just got an email the other day from them saying that they are adding more hot fusion classes during the week! read more

Great place to do yoga. The entire studio is very clean, and the staff is friendly. I would recommend to my friends. Our instructor, Kent, was extremely patient as he demonstrated and guided the group to and in-between the poses. read more

We love this place. The owner is a super nice guy that cares about you. Puts very little pressure on you. Which for me is awesome because I am 100% new at yoga.. If you are beginner do not be afraid. I highly recomend the hot yoga! read more

I have been looking for a hot yoga studio that offered more than the traditional Bikram style yoga and I'm so happy I found Align Yoga. Along with the 90 minute class they also offer a great 60 minute hot flow hybrid class which is wonderful. Teachers are very warm and offer corrections and encouragement. The floor, studio and locker room are very clean. Grateful to have found my new yoga home! read more

The atmosphere is beautiful, very bright and airy. Rachel made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in and did and absolutely fantastic job of blending different styles of yoga and accommodating all levels. read more

I was new to the Yoga community and anxious to go in person to try something new. I began this journey roughly 3 weeks ago and there is no turning back for me. I have had the opportunity to take classes from almost ALL of the instructors at Align and I am blown away. I started with Kaushik who was an amazing guide into this practice for me. He made me feel comfortable and told me what I would need and answered all of my questions with kindness and patience. I highly recommend his Flow and Hot Fusion classes. The only complaint is I would love it to be longer than an hour because I need more!!!!! Celeste is FIRE in Bikram Beats! There isn't much guidance in this specific class but it flows nicely with music and each posture 2x... and be prepared to get your sweat on and to feel cleansed! Ashley is absolutely incredible with Bikram and Yin and takes the time to specialize her yin class for any ailments the class may be dealing with during the week and brings Bristol her sweet dog which is so healing! If you want your booty kicked in the most awesome way I highly recommend Kristins Inferno Hot Pilates! I leave every time feeling incredible and that I'm doing something amazing for my body and mind! Check out Danielles Inferno Hot Pilates if you want something super intense, hot, and motivating. She is there to guide you every step of the way and you will get a full body workout! If you are looking for someone to spend extra time guiding your body positions and teaching you what to do safely and appropriately, I recommend Dash's Bikram class. I nearly began crying in this class as it felt so spiritual to me and I felt so connected to myself and the universe and at peace. He immediately took notice of where I could move my hips and how I can safely practice Bikram as a bendy person without hurting myself. This type of care from every single instructor is so beyond and I am so appreciative to have found this community! Each instructor has a different style and something unique to pack up and take with me on my yoga journey. I really really really recommend this studio, this practice, and every instructor Align has to offer. I can't wait to try the other instructors I haven't had the opportunity of taking class with yet! read more

I take the 60 minute hot yoga. It's a workout. I sweat buckets and I love it. As a beginner I thought it was going to be really tough to start yoga. I thought it would just be too challenging. What I experienced at Align was excellent and patient yoga teachers. They saw me coming! They gave me a ton of encouragement and extra attention. I look forward to going. I look forward to improving. And I feel great. The studios are large. The bathrooms, showers, and lockers are a real bonus! It's a great place and I recommend it to anyone. read more

I was in town for work and looking for a place to practice hot yoga. I am not a fan of trying new places. This place was awesome!! Very clean and offered everything you needed.... towels and mats. Also a water bottle filler which I thought was pretty cool. The locker room had very clean showers and lockers that you can store your things in. I went to the 6AM hot yoga class and the instructor was really welcoming and really nice. She guided the class with clear instructions. She was on point!! This place is a 5 star yoga studio. I will definitely be back when I come for work meetings! read more

One of the best studios I've ever tried. Their instructors are one of a kind.They are all super knowledgeable and caring. Being there immediately makes you feel like you are part of the family.I feel so lucky to have been able to find it. read more

The perks was that I liked the instructor, the music and the space is fairly clean. The pace was good, and the classes themselves aren't bad. The negatives is that the rooms are really hot (95 degrees and up), even for a class that's not the "hot" yoga type. Because it was so hot and the su is shining I through the windows, it was hard to relax. But what really turned me off was that some of the men do yoga in their underwear, wearing nothing else. And they use the shared blocks between their legs that go back to the community shared pile. I know you're supposed to be sanitizing (wipe down yourself) the mats and tools you use, but I found that unsanitary and distracting. I probably would have enjoyed the class more if the room wasn't so hot, and everyone was wearing yoga clothes and not in their underwear only. For these two reasons, I probably wouldn't recommend this place. read more

I've been a Bikram yoga practitioner for over 17 years, and have practiced at nearly a dozen different studios, but from all of my experiences I have to say that Align yoga is truly the best studio that I've ever practiced at, and it is directly attributed to its personable, kooky yet ever charming owner, Dash Nagata! Not only does Dash painstakingly keep the studio tidy(the women's changing room and showers are literally 5 star hotel grade!!) and safe-especially during these trying Covid-times, but he has established an atmosphere of strong community, positive energy, and a sense of welcome that I've not experienced anywhere else. The teachers are a solid staff that have amazing dialogue, attentiveness, and personal style that help ease you through each of the postures, and by the end of my practice I always feel completely energized and rejuvenated-and the lovely cooling, aromatherapy scented hand towels that you get during the close of your yoga practice are so reminiscent of a spa that you nearly forget that you just had an all over, intensive body and mind changing yoga experience-such an incredible way to start or end your day! read more

I joined Align Yoga when it opened in July. I was so pleased to be able to continue practicing BIKRAM style Yoga/26&2 or called Hot90 @ Align, closer to home! What I like most about Align is the unique combination of caring and talented teachers and the camaraderie of my fellow practitioners. We support each other before and after class thus finding strength as a group as we practice together! I have been doing this type of yoga for 10 years and now more than ever I feel the need and desire to continue and reap the many benefits! When I am practicing it allows me to escape and recharge myself to face the challenges that life brings! I am grateful for yoga in my life and an amazing place like Align to practice at! Align Yoga is a wonderful addition to the Pleasant Hill Community . It is centrally located on Contra Costa Blvd with ample and free parking. They have a nice combination of yoga classes. In addition to Hot90, they have Hot Fusion60, Flow75 and Restorative Meditation RM60 Last but not least . . . The Align Yoga Studio is State Of The Art in design! It is brand spanking new, bright and clean! Equipped with F/M showers, locker rooms, free filtered water station. Yoga clothing, mats and accessories, bottled drinks to purchase. read more

Clean open space. With amazing teachers. The vide it's open to what you want to make it in your journey.

Everyone there is super nice, the place is clean and relaxing. If desired they provide free towels. I enjoy the hot yoga, they have many instructors so it's always a little different yet with consistent quality and comfort. read more

Ok this is my new yoga studio ! Today I went to Kent's hot flow and the pain in my body has left ! I loved the clear instruction and flow of the class . Great energy ! I highly recommend this facility. They even have cool towels and showers ! read more

This is the real deal yoga feel! Thanks to Kent and Team for bringing this gem of a studio to our happy little town. The wife loves it too and I am a firm believer in happy wife happy life! read more

My husband and I have been going to Align since early this year and we absolutely LOVE it. We both immediately signed up for monthly packages and it is so great to go together. I have been practicing for over 10 years and my husband is a beginner. The classes are truly wonderful for both beginner or advanced yogis. Truly the best yoga studio in the East Bay. We love the vibe and everyone is so warm and friendly. The studio is new and clean. It is such a beautiful space to practice yoga in. We are huge fans and again truly love it! All the instructors are great and very experienced and we really enjoy the mix of classes. read more

After decades of taking care of my family (& a single mom at that) & my patients( am a health care professional too), decided to sign up with Align yoga just to help me with the stress of my work. Not only is this place very clean but the yoga instructors are kind & non-judgemental at all. After the 1st class (so sorry but forgot the name of the Asian yoga instructor on an evening class), there were some few moments of quiet time & tears just rolled my face coz it felt so good to do something for myself finally. Yoga is an exercise not only for the mind & the body too. I have old low back, hip & neck injuries from just lifting heavy patients & a whiplash & after 3 classes, I don't feel my hip pain anymore & my son was commenting how he has noticed I am not as lethargic from working graveyard shift & longs hours. Hope I can continue to continue what I have started & hope people will start to go & check out align yoga so they can continue to help a lot of people like me. read more
