It allows you to get back in shape but finding tranquil balance in your daily life, so go and get healthy by doing Yoga and Tai Chi, thank you. read more

This is a great place. As soon as I step in the Center I feel a clean, calm, and pleasant energy welcoming me. In class we practice Korean Yoga. We start warming up our body by tapping our dahn-jon, (under the belly button) to increase our energy core. We do a blend of Tai Chi, Qigong, wooden pillow, sleeping tiger, stretching, etc. Every tapping or movement has a healing meridian and purpose for our body and our brain. Master Laura, Master Jeanette, and Instructor Grace gently guide us and remind us to breathe and exhale (which sometimes I forget). After meditation and closing exercises, I feel content and relaxed, ready to share that feeling with other people and have a joyful day. Whenever possible I take weekend workshops and special trainings in Mago Garden (US headquarters) in Sedona, AZ . There're also videos online and books written by Founder Ilchi Lee to help us grow more as human being. This practice helps me feel healthier, happier and definitely more peaceful, and my Inner Self is grateful for it. See you in class? read more

It was meant to be! I have passed by this place almost weekly because I shop at the Sprouts Farmers Market nearby it. One day, out of curiosity I went in to ask about their classes as I have been wanting to join a low impact exercise due to some injuries. When I experienced the trial class, there was no thinking twice whether I would sign up for membership or not. I signed up the very same day on my own free will. I saw and felt the value that it is very worth it. My experience after that very first class was mind-blowing and soul-lifting. I did not even expect much from it as a form of exercise. I came in the class clueless and stiff but went home feeling like the cross I bear just got lifted. There was glow in my skin and my chest felt lighter. The instructors are very nice, gentle and caring. You can feel that they are genuinely happy and the energy is contagious. I have some chronic pain issues and I must say, I haven't popped a pill since I became a member. It has been a month and I really felt a big difference with my energy. I am calmer, flexible and the breathing and stretching exercises took care of my body pains. My range of motion got better without feeling sore. I learned a lot about my body and the tiny joints and muscles that I didn't know I have. I learned to listen to my body and how powerful the brain can be. Best of all, I learned how to breathe. It feels like family here. I have no regrets. read more

I had an energy healing session today with Laura, the owner, and I felt so much lighter and clear minded. I've been going through a hard time emotionally, and I had been trying a lot of healing techniques, but thus far, this energy healing session has helped me so much. Laura was there for me through all my emotions and cries. Truly so grateful! It felt like my first big step towards healing my emotional imbalance. We did some intentional movement, breathing, self-massage, energy meditation, magnets, and she gave me further advice I can do to help my healing. I have also attended classes for a while after I had been involved in a bad car accident, these classes are so gentle and promote healing in all aspects: spiritually, emotionally, physically, and mentally. I love wooden pillow class the most. read more

Body & Brain - Cerritos - Yoga Near Me - Cerritos, California

As a Public Health professional that consistently advocates for Brain education in every capacity and all forms of Healthcare, I would like to share my sincerest thoughts about Body & Brain Yoga Tai Chi-Cerritos Studio. I came to the studio in March after losing a loved one to COVID-19. Being a Master of Public Health and losing someone to a Public Health crisis made me feel like a failure. I needed to find something that would help me process this loss and help bring me back to homeostasis. As soon as I walked in to the studio I felt the warm and loving compassion of the center's Manager, Jan Cogan. I immediately knew that this would be my second home and a place for me to heal at all levels. I became a member and took their Tai chi classes with Laura, whom I love and respect immensely :) I had the honor & privilege to take classes with Grace, Jan, and other wonderful instructors at the center. If I could give this center 1000 stars, I would. They are unlike any other yoga studio. This is home and I hope you will feel motivated to come and explore the wonderful world of Body & Brain Yoga Tai chi. They have locations everywhere! Find yours at www.bodynbrain.com With love, Sophie :) read more

Since doing this Holistic Asian inspired yoga, I am pain and medication free! I had trouble focusing and had tension in my back, neck, shoulders. Now I am more flexible and can focus on creating my best life! read more

I joined Body & Brain Yoga a few weeks ago and Jan & Laura (instructors) made me feel so welcome! Because of COVID classes are offered online via zoom but there are 3 outdoor classes a week as well. I had to miss a few outdoor classes because of work and the staff actually called me to check in and make sure everything was okay. More than a basic yoga studio - the staff go above and beyond! read more

Body & Brain Yoga has been a very positive change in my life. I've been attending classes for the last eight months and I can honestly say it has help me physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. All of the teachers/instructors are amazing. This is Elda Garcia. read more

LIFE CHANGING!!! I have held a membership here for the past couple of years. Although, memberships and workshops can be expensive, becoming healthier physically, mentally, and spiritually was more important to me. When I first started attending yoga and Tai Chi classes, I was having a lot of abdominal pain and nausea--the last thing I wanted to do was tap my "dahn john" (lower gut) or stick anything in my belly button. I almost left and never came back because I thought some of the exercises were weird. It wasn't until I started seeing articles and books in other places that I really saw the benefits of tapping. That was when I finally read my membership manual and started practicing at home. In hindsight, this is something I wish I had done in the beginning because I would have started healing a lot sooner. I can tell that Master Sao, Jeannette, and Veronica (the teachers at the center) really do care about me and the other members. They only suggest things for you to help you grow--not because they want to make more money. Through regular class attendence, workshops, and private sessions I have learned and have grown into a much kinder, happier, and spiritual person. I also breathe better and deeper--I have less issues with my asthma and can do things physically that I thought weren't ever going to be possible. I also rarely have stomach issue, which is wonderful considering how sick I was (I used to curl up in a ball and cry because my abdominal pain was so bad). I have also made wonderful, life-long, and true friends at the center. In addition, Master Sao taught me how to meditate. I tried for years to learn how to meditate with other practitioners (including Buddhist monks), books, and CDs without success. Meditation, prayer, and scripture reading had brought me a lot of peace. Through workshops and individual sessions I learned how to "let go" of past traumas I have experienced and how to have love, forgiveness, and compassion for myself. I feel like I am a stronger, braver, and a more peaceful person now than I ever was. read more

Body & Brain - Cerritos - With my teachers and center friends after "Finding Your True Self" Workshop - Yoga Near Me - Cerritos, California

Me and my sister that has a special needs started going to Body and Brain Yoga & Tai Chi about 2 months ago. At first we are hesitant to go but after our trial session we already felt the difference. I remembered we went home that day feeling a strong sense of calm and felt so welcome. This place is a perfect place for beginners who wants to learn about Yoga and Tai-Chi practice. We learned different techniques everyday. It helps my sister less moody, makes her happy and looking forward to go to class everyday. As myself, I experience peace, healing and tranquility every time I attended the class. The energy and positive vibes makes you feel alive. Thank you for M. Laura who is very passionate, professional and knowledgeable in every detail during our healing yoga session. Each session is very opening, challenging and relaxing at the same time. We will continue to go to this place as it helps us with our emotional healing, physical pain and overall wellness. I highly recommend Body & Brain to everyone and definitely you will not regret it. read more

I probably passed in front of this place 100 times before I decided to check it out. The only regret I have is not having walked in sooner. Once you meet all of these wonderful women that run this place, it will soon become your happy place and one that look forward to going to. This is a low impact practice, it focuses heavily on breathing and being mindful so that every move counts. However, they not only have tai chi classes, stretching, low impact yoga, they will introduce you to wooden pillow, and belly button healing. Look I know, it may sound a little wonky but the way you feel when you leave after spending an hour or so in class will be life changing. This is a place you come and really just focus and work on yourself with lots of love and support by not only the beautiful ladies in the studio but all the members. Book an energy healing session with Jan and kick off 2020 with some self love. I think they have a pretty affordable intro session. Good Luck and see you in class. read more

New to yoga. Stopped in to see if they had any stretching classes to help my tight muscles and reduced flexibility. Laura is a fantastic instructor, very knowledgeable and took time to work with me one on one. This was appreciated due to me being new to yoga. Anyway, what I discovered is that this did help with my flexibility but I experienced so much more! I really enjoyed the wooden pillow! Try it! Thanks Body & Brain! read more

I recently joined in (about two weeks ago) I never expected the kind of experience I'm having, it's amazing! I am seeing and feeling very good results, mentally, emotionally and physically! The classes are so good and energetic... I am falling in love with all the instructors and members... for reals! Thank you so much 'Body & Brain Cerritos'! -Carlos V read more

The rating is due to my opinion only. Check it out for yourself! Pros: Loved the yoga/meditation/beautification words and music. Loved the tea at the end of every session. Cons: Did not like that they are pushy with trainings and spending lots of money on them. Did not like they force beach cleanups on you and a donation. Did not like that you must attend a mandatory intro meeting to learn all the proper terminology and make you feel horrible if you cannot commit. Wasn't a fan of the hour and half classes but I did feel awesome after. When I googled this place I saw some alarming verbiage on the "Creator" which is labeled as a Con artist creating a cult like facility. I don't believe everything I read on google... just go with your gut instinct and feelings. read more

I had a great experience with Jan she is a blessing, I feel so much better and it's only my first day. I recommend this place to anyone interested with yoga don't hesitate to come here the staff is extremely welcoming and a great environment. read more

Could not get any one to call me back, i left several detailed messages, no one called me back..called 3 days in a row, still no response.. Just refund my money people.. read more

Guided by an awesome team of teachers and masters of Brain & Body Yoga and Taichi, my first 3 months of exposure to BBY Center in Cerritos, CA, is a life changing experience. The Intro Class and free group class I took helped me a lot in my decision to continue this journey. I've been a member for about 7 months now. I was told that I will feel a difference, less body aches and pain in my case, after doing about 10 classes in a span of 2 weeks. I was skeptical for sure, but the result I had after about 5 group classes made me want to continue more. I also understood that it will take at least 3 months to really reap the benefits of this program. Before my 10 classes ended, I already know in my mind and in my heart that BBY & Tai-chi is what I needed to do to take back my body. One might be overwhelmed by the many programs and classes that are offered in the center. Asking center managers and teachers was very helpful for me in understanding and knowing which classes to take. I also took advantage of the free classes being offered and the one-on-one evaluations every time I'm being asked by the teachers. I did have an awakening after taking the Finding True Self Class. It was not what I was expecting. It really helped me understand how the mind and body are connected, and should be one in order to be healed, not just physically but mentally as well. It helped me to deepen my connection with the Creator of all and my relationship with my family. I also rediscovered how to really connect with other people. Experiencing positive results with each classes, home exercises, 1 minute change exercises, and the trainings I've taken allows me to enjoy life more each day. It helps me to see more of what is possible in my life. Being free from constant aches and pain allows me to do more of what I love to do. Not being fatigued and not having low energy brings more understanding of how to manage daily life challenges. Now I have the courage to work on being the best of who I am meant to be. I'm so thankful for all the programs that Ilchi Lee put together, and the continuous learning, sharing and passion he gives to this system of self healing. My sincere thanks as well to all the teachers and masters at the Cerritos Center, their love for teaching and caring for each student is so humbling. So true that a person can give more to others when one's mind, body & spirit is healthy, happy & deeply rooted. I see it every time I come to a class. 4 stars is because I think a bigger place is needed at this time. read more

Body and Brain classes and workshops have taught me how to release stress, anxiety, and pain in my body. I love the meridian stretching, brain wave vibration, tai chi, and breathing. I also learned about my brain, my organs, and how to manage my health so that I do not have to rely on medication for headaches, insomnia, nor attention challenges. I am medication free, and know which exercises can help for energy circulation and do meditation instead! read more

I love Body and Brain Yoga and TaiChi! Here I found how to breathe again and how to smile again. These two "simple" actions I thought I was doing but not to the full extent, I was always rushing to do so many things trying to multitask being a mom a wife taking care of everyone else but me. I found myself again. The staff are such wonderful people so caring and kind! I really love coming here! I really recommend everyone to at least go and try it, give yourself a chance to live a life of purpose by taking care of yourself! read more

The location of center is very convenient and the environment is full of bright energy from the entrance with dedicated staffs. I started the practice for my physical body health but realized that I received lot more benefit than I expected through regular classes and special workshops. It was an awakening that my physical body is connected to my mind state. "Healthy Body, Happy Heart, Power Brain" is the reason I continue to go to this center. Would like to recommend for anybody who is seeking for the clear mind status in our busy daily life through physical practice and meditation. read more

It's a very welcoming environment. I came today for my first class and they do combinations of yoga meditation, tai-chi, deep breathing and so much more. Everybody enjoyed their time and so did I.

I will recommend it to anyone that wants to clear their mind and start their day in more relaxed state of mind. read more

Super friendly, good instructors, been going 3 weeks. My joint pain in my hands has lessened since starting yoga, I can't believe it! Medication and supplements haven't helped the last 8 months. I'm all in for yoga! read more

This is formerly Dahn Yoga which is not really yoga as we know it. I joined once and quit the next day because it was some other form of exercise which involves hitting your stomach. Anyway if you're into that, that's great, but I want mid eastern style yoga. I wish they wouldn't call this place yoga. I'd give it a higher score otherwise. Call it by it's true name! read more

Not a review but a suggestion. i really enjoy the classes. the instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful. However, have you ever thought of offering the following?: -15 minute strictly meditation classes -workshops or classes to help people overcome or learn to live with anxiety disorder and depression -create support groups to help people overcome or learn to live with anxiety and depression read more

I am so glad to have found this amazing yoga classes, that I look forward to everyday. The instructors are excellent at teaching it. I totally recommend this to anyone that wants to change there life, makes u feel great and I will continue practicing it. read more

I'am so grateful for Dahn Yoga and Meditation center. There is nothing else like it. The instructors are so fun and caring and teach us amazing stretches that strengthen our CORE and several other different parts of the body. I feel so good afterwards! There are a variety of exercises that they then explain what part of the body this helps to heal. They also have different classes like healing chakras, meridian channel opening, brain wave vibration, Meditation, Wooden pillow, Tai Chi, and retreats to Sedona where the main center is, just to name a few. Dahn means CORE. It creates your inner strength so that you can live a happier healthier life. I say Live and Give it a try read more
