I've been really enjoying these classes as she has been teaching me techniques to ease my pregnancy and mind, but also preparing me for labor! Her style of teaching is involved in just the perfect way. I appreciate her in tune and grounded attitude as she teaches. She's a kindred, down to earth and calm individual that has extensive knowledge in yoga. Luminous is a great place to practice no matter where you are on your journey, whether you have just started or are continuing to progress and strengthen your practice or bringing a little human into the world! The space is comforting and pleasant. Aris is an amazing instructor who can guide you towards your goals and intentions. The variety of classes they provide is very helpful. I have tried so many different studios in and around the cities I have lived (Santa Barbara, San Diego, Orange County) and this is the first studio where I've felt connected right away. I'm really thankful to have found such a great studio! Thanks Aris!

Her personal dedication to the practice of all aspects of yoga adds a deep and profound element to her classes and private sessions. Whether I am looking to release energy blocks, relieve stress or just get in a great workout, her classes always exceed my needs and expectations. Constantly applying new and exciting information she is learning keeps the classes fresh and exciting. I highly recommend Luminous soul tribe as a place to come for the physical practice of yoga and also to connect to an incredible community of yogis on the path of acceptance and love - for themselves and all others.

One of my favorite little details is the icy cold essential oil towel at the end of class, such a refreshing and thoughtful touch after a tough workout.

If you're looking for a studio that pushes you while also creating a really positive, welcoming vibe, this is it.

Total bullshit first experience…read more I was doing a one week free trial because I was genuinely interested in joining. I signed up for the 9:30 a.m. class, was already in the parking lot at 9:25, and had to finish a work call. I walked up to the front door at 9:31 and it was locked. Nobody was even at the front desk. About five minutes later, someone finally came out and told me I could not join because of their no late policy and because the class was full. I understand that I was technically one minute late. I also understand the policy is probably meant to avoid disrupting the people already taking the class. But sometimes you have to step away from bullshit policies and actually think through the situation in front of you... especially for someone who lives 15 min away on a 1 week trial, doesn't know the policies, and who is interested in joining the club. I was already registered, so if the class was full by 9:31 (unless that was an exaggeration) I can only assume they immediately gave my spot to someone on the waitlist. I then had to drive 17 minutes back home, meaning they wasted 32 minutes of my morning over one minute. What makes it even worse is that this was my first time at the studio. I was on a one week free trial because I was genuinely interested in becoming a member. I was not a long standing member who already knew every policy. She clearly knew I was on the trial because she told me she would reset it. Talk about a terrible customer service experience for someone who was considering becoming a paying member. And please do not bother responding with some generic corporate apology. I do not want another trial, a free class, or anything else from you. This review is not for the owner or the studio. Know that if work, traffic, parking, or life makes you even one minute late, they will give away your spot, lock you out, and waste your time.

If you're looking for a serious, high-energy sweat session in the area, the CorePower location in…read moreCosta Mesa over off Harbor Boulevard is fantastic. It's tucked right into the Shops at Mesa Verde plaza, which makes parking super easy and stress-free since you can just use the massive lot right out front. The studio itself is always clean, well-maintained, and has a great layout. They feature everything from their classic C2 heated flows to their deep-stretch CoreRestore classes, but the real standout here is their Yoga Sculpt (YS). It is an absolute powerhouse of a workout. They combine heated power yoga with light hand weights, cardio bursts, and high-energy music that keeps you moving the entire time. The instructors here have incredible energy, push you to your absolute limits, and put together stellar playlists that make the intense burn actually fun. You will leave completely drenched and exhausted, but in the best way possible. On the flip side, if you need to completely decompress, their candlelight meditation class is absolutely amazing. The instructors dim the lights, light the candles, and set an incredibly peaceful, grounding vibe that is perfect for resetting after a stressful week. It is the ultimate way to slow down and clear your head. The locker rooms are kept clean, fully stocked, and have solid shower setups if you need to rinse off before heading out. It definitely gets busy during peak morning and evening hours, so you'll want to book your mat ahead of time on the app, but the community vibe here is super welcoming and zero-pretension. Easily one of the most consistent and high-quality spots around when you want a challenging, fast-paced hot yoga workout or a deep, restorative reset

The Vibe: Turn It Up. Turn It Off. We began in Child's…read morePose. No music. Daveed asked us to feel our heartbeat. Just feel it. Low-to-the-ground stretching. Quiet. Then Samasthiti. And-- MUSIC. The Guide: Daveed A. * MANTRA Hot Power Vinyasa Daveed was vibrant. Alive. Teaching philosophy while teaching yoga. Music up. Music off. Music up again. Chair Pose came with a longevity lesson: Strong, mobile legs matter. (Research agrees.) So... stay in Chair. Then Daveed taught us a Vinyasa flow. Slowly. Meanwhile... Little Red Corvette. Prince. LOUD. We learned the sequence. Built heat. Moved. Somewhere in there, Daveed dropped Einstein into the room: Quote, "The field is the sole governing agency of the particle." Energy. Environment. Attention. The field matters. Then... Child's Pose. Music off. Heartbeat. Stillness. Same pose. Different experience. Daveed invited us to let whatever surfaced... surface. No need to explain it. Feel it. Allow it. Let it move. Then we got back up. Same flow. No music. Breath to movement. Again. Again. Three rounds? Four? I stopped counting. Our breath became the soundtrack. Then... BOOM. Music again. One last flow. Only this time... we danced it. Then core. Long holds. Music pumping. At one point in Wide-Legged Forward Fold... I could actually feel the music against my back. New Yoga Field Note. Then the energy changed again. Ground work. Longer stretches. Before Savasana, Daveed brought us to responsibility. None of us knows what will happen next. But we can leave with something: our ability to respond with a little lighter energy. And then... Savasana. Apparently. Because I was gone. When I opened my eyes... class was over. The Tribe The room woke back up. Conversation. Energy. Hugs. I stayed afterward to ask Daveed a few questions. That's when another piece clicked into place. Daveed is a music composer. I asked about his musical style. He couldn't really name one. He reads the room. Then chooses. And I have evidence... Sometimes the room needed Prince. Sometimes AC/DC. Sometimes... nothing. And sometimes a room full of people breathing together sounded better than any playlist ever could. The Space & Place MANTRA begins bright. Plants. Hibiscus. White walls. Black floors. Buddha figures. Simple. Calm. Then you open the yoga-room door... RED. Infrared overhead. Dark, padded flooring beneath you. Even the space mirrored the practice. Calm. Intensity. Calm. Again. Summary: Contrast Changes Perception Music. Silence. Heat. Stillness. Effort. Release. Stillness feels different after intensity. Maybe that's why we began where we did. Before Prince. Before the heat. Before the philosophy. Before the flow. Just... heartbeat. Everything turned up. Everything turned off. And the heartbeat? Still there. Field Note: Turn it up. Turn it off. The heartbeat responds. So can we.

Came here for a Wednesday morning class using ClassPass. Daveed is one of my favorite instructors,…read moreso I wanted to try his class at this studio. This was my first time practicing in a red light studio and it was awesome!! You can lay out on your mat beforehand and just soak in the red light. The red light is a really unique feature and I wish more studios offered this. It helps with muscle recovery and reduces inflammation. I love that you can kill two birds with one stone. It's like doing a red light sauna and yoga at the same time, with a lot of added benefits! The space is smaller, so parking could be tricky on weekends, since it shares a lot with a restaurant in the strip mall. The studio itself is clean, with cubbies outside to remove shoes and leave your belongings. The bathroom and water station are located inside the studio room. Also, I heard they have free community classes on Sunday but not sure if that's still going on.

I'm not really one to write reviews, but I thought I would share my experiences at Purple Yoga (all…read morelocations) for anybody considering starting yoga, finding a new studio, or finding the right studio. Long story short: I started yoga at the end of April this year on a whim (saw one of my friends post a story on Instagram doing hot yoga) and tried out different studios in the area and landed on Purple at the beginning of mid-May, and have now taken 34 classes since then. I have a roster of favorite teachers that I highly recommend. Alex: adds fun, light banter to each class, making yoga approachable, comes to each student (when he can) to show corrections and is proactive with the class. Mike: a new teacher at Purple, an excellent teacher who does the flow with his students, repeating each step with us until we get the final flow, it's easy to see progress with his class. Jamol: energetic, nice flow with his class, makes adjustment if requested, and I always come feeling like I've learned something. Joe: the owner of the studio, of course I had to try his class. Excellent teaching skills, making adjustments, show the right postures and poses, tough class but I definitely feel improvement after I take them. Joe, if you're reading this, please I implore you to increase the number of your classes during the week (Saturday, Sunday, Friday would be nice lol) so I can take at least one (won't be able to in the future as I'll have to head to the office the days you teach in a few months). Teachers I want to try (more of) but haven't had much of a chance yet: Danny (I've only taken him once but he was excellent), Chloe, Alley, Sahara, Phoung, Danielle, and Emily. I'm sure all the teachers are wonderful though! Facilities: clean, comfortable, spacious, and parking is aplenty. Staff: Very welcoming, unpretentious, and friendly. I had a poor experience with another studio about the staff and felt very unwelcome, which sets a bad tone for the visit, so Purple has been a nice change from that. Scheduling: Their schedule is great, early morning classes before work, and classes throughout the day on Saturday and Sundays. The scheduling app is convenient and quick. (One point of feedback: I wish the app had a Google Calendar option so I can send it to myself on Google instead of just Apple.) If there's any feedback I could give, I would love it if the classes have some sort of cirriculum that state which poses/flow we're going to do so we as students can get a better comprehensive idea of what we're doing in each class. There's so many asanas out there, I would love to know what I've been covering so far. At the moment, I bought some yoga textbooks to go mark down what I've done personally but I don't necessarily know what flows we've been doing. Overall: I recommend Purple if you're looking a clean, comfortable, place to start or practice your yoga journey!

Class description and actual class did not feel quite the same. I usually always sweat moving in a hot yoga class... not one droplet - not sure if the thermostat wasnt working but it did not feel hot. The instructor was nice but felt very new. Demos were lackluster, cues empty, and lacked a flow. There were 4 of us in class and somehow i might have gotten one interaction. I left feeling maybe a stretch at best.
