Wholesome. Peaceful. Profoundly Spiritual…read more I have attended Sunday services, various workshops, retreats, and the Kriya Meditation Courses at Sunburst Sanctuary for 14 years now. I can categorically say that this is the most beautifully exquisite and peaceful place with a loving and mature community I have ever encountered. The 4,000 acre grounds are perfect for unplugging and rebalancing oneself. I love the yoga and especially the meditations they provide. For example, in the Sunday Service which starts at 10:30am every Sunday, they'll drop into 15 minutes of silence, not the typical 30 seconds other churches extend. A Yogananda Center, The Kriya Meditation Technique is unparalleled in its potency. Sunburst has always been a farm-to-table enterprise owning and operating New Frontier health food supermarkets. They maintain a large farm that sources the delicious Sunday brunches they offer. Sunburst is more than a Center; they are a family. Many founding members are still with each other after 50 years, proving the success and sustainability of the Center. The consciousness of these members is simply beautiful. For all these reasons and more, whether for a respite, or to deepen your commitment to your spiritual path, I highly recommend Sunburst Sanctuary, a gentle and welcoming spiritual center for all.

As a physical therapist, I am very picky about the quality of instruction at any studio or class I attend, and it is very hard to find good instructors. The ones at Breathe are a good bunch!

I would highly recommend this studio and this yoga teacher training for anyone who is looking for high quality instruction.

If you're looking for a Santa Barbara yoga community, then you need to come to Yoga Soup…read more I've been practicing with Yoga Soup for several years now, starting with their intro month membership (which has great student and senior rates available too) before transitioning to be part of their work-trade team. What originally brought me to the studio was the undeniable sense of community that exudes from the space. Here, yoga is more than a physical practice on the matt. And honestly for me, it's been a place to explore what it means to be human and how I want to show up for myself, those around me, and more generally, the world. But maybe more importantly, there's truly a class for everyone. Yoga Soup can be your place to find a woman's circle or to get in a sweaty vinyasa flow or shake it out dancing. Whatever it is, what I love is that each class feels like it's part of larger mosaic that reflects a wide diversity of offerings, modalities, perspectives, and styles, all intended to help you find what you need, when you need it. Last year, I completed Yoga Soup's 300 hour advanced yoga teacher training taught by Dora Chan, Jazmin Ment, Cynthia Abulafia, and Luca Cupery. This training went beyond my wildest expectations. The depth of knowledge from the teachers, the support from the studio, and the inclusive, welcoming culture set by the whole community is second to none. If you're interested in deepening your yoga practice (regardless of whether or not you want to teach), I highly highly recommend this program. Or if you're just getting started on your studies, they also offer a 200 hour yoga teacher training - which I am honored to be supporting this year! With so many yoga studio's in California - and Santa Barbara - you truly can't go wrong. But, for me, I am so grateful to have found a home for my practice at Yoga Soup.
