Katie really explained the process in great detail so I felt very comfortable. Now, the treatment that I received changed my life! My horrible 9 day migraine went away after the first session.

I have only been coming to YogaSukhum for about 2 months (nearly daily), but I can definitely feel…read moreand see a a difference. I joined yoga because I needed an outlet for my anxiety and burnout from work. I feel more flexible and for the first time ever, have been able to touch my toes (a small but important success for me). All the instructors are great, especially Satya and Varsha. I absolutely love the fact that they take the time and explain why the poses are done in each way, the importance of it and what part of the body we're working on. I've always been hesitant about starting yoga because I have been very conscious about my lack of flexibility and unable to hold certain poses. But at YogaSukhum, it's never about the ability to hold a pose, it's where your body is that day and going into the pose correctly and safely. Using yoga props, not forcing poses and listening to my body, has allowed me to improve on my flexibility, feel stronger and have been able to hold and do poses that I never thought I would be able to. The instructors are very personable, will address specific limitations and will provide any modifications needed to feel comfortable and confident. I truly appreciate that they push us to go further, but never make us uncomfortable. I have also attended a sound bathe and an inversion training class. It was my first time experiencing a sound bathe and it was very different and beautiful experience. I was very nervous trying the inversion class, but I wanted to go outside my comfort zone and try something different. The class was a lot of fun and the way they slowly approached inversions really helped me feel safe and comfortable trying it. We used an inversion trainer and it was honestly a lot of fun. They have classes multiple times a day - daily and have an option of joining online. Even online, the instructors will give each yogi attention, encouragement and feedback. The classes are 75 min long, but the time goes by so fast. Classes are easy to join via using their app and they have great membership options. They are also very mindful of COVID regulations and everyone who attends must be vaccinated. I am so glad my husband googled a yoga studio near us and found this amazing place for me. After trialing it for 15 days, I signed up for a 6 month commitment without any hesitation. The most important aspect I respect about coming here is the emphasis of mind, body and breath. I am very grateful for this yoga studio and the instructors.

Yogasukham has been a true blessing…read more I was searching for a studio that focused on mindful breathing and proper technique--not just poses--and this place has deeply enriched my practice.

They now started turning off the lights in the weight room right at closing time (which is an…read moreoutrageous 7 pm on Sunday)! I don't mean they're dimming the lights. They actually turned them off! That's an outright safety issue. It's absolutely outrageous. And I don't feel like anyone in the staff is honest enough to acknowledge this. They acted like this was the way it's always been done. I've been coming here twenty years never have I seen that before. The new directive from above is clearly to get people out as quick as possible so that they can close asap and save some overhead costs. At the expense of our comfort and safety! Don't come here. Go to a real gym where they close at a reasonable hour and treat you with respect, not like a sheep that needs to be herded back to the pen.

All the instructors are not only highly skilled and professional, but genuinely passionate about what they do. You feel that energy in every class epically with Monica and Sarah.

The studio owner Terik is incredibly welcoming and always goes out of their way to make everyone feel at home. That personal touch makes a real difference. Whether you're looking to build physical strength, or find a deeper sense of peace and balance, GLO is the place to be. I recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone on a journey to improve themselves -- body, mind, and spirit. Show more

Over three years coming here but I wanted to share a health benefit I've never experienced before …read more All my life I've been lifting heavy weights and I've been fairly muscular for the last thirty years or so. My HDL cholesterol number have always been lower. It has jumped up from the thirties to 62 in the last year after I started more vigorous yoga like sculpt from Moji and Bikram from Jamie.. I'm still able to bench 315 pounds once a week because yoga works on my small muscles . All heavy weight lifters have sore shoulder joints which yoga has helped me overcome greatly .

I was a long-time yoga practitioner at Joya Dublin. Due to the pandemic and a nagging shoulder…read moreinjury, I stopped for a while. I discovered Joya Pleasanton offers a free Sunday vinyasa class and took a couple, and realized how much I missed yoga in my life. Joya Pleasanton offers a variety of modalities - vinyasa, bikram, Pilates, barre, and HIIT type classes. I take vinyasa and wish there were more j flow vinyasa classes on weekday mornings but I get it, I'm in the minority! The vinyasa instructors have all been excellent - positive, encouraging, and always thoughtful and creative in sequences. The care team is always friendly and they do a great job keeping the yoga rooms tidy and fresh. Parking at Joya Pleasanton can be tricky. It's best to check the schedule and see when classes get out before your chosen class begins. Try to arrive a couple mins after patrons leave. (Here I am, given away my parking secrets!) If that seems too complicated, get to class at least 15 mins early in case you need to circle the lot or find street parking around the block.

I don't recommend this studio. Classes are poorly organized, room temperatures are either too hot…read moreor too cold, and parking is difficult.

That said, I have been delighted to find such a welcoming place full of capable, friendly, and patient instructors who are willing to help me learn and improve my form. The Pleasanton studio is clean and well organized and it is easy to schedule or change classes through their app. But really, the people who teach the classes, and those who attend them, make a difference with their positivity and encouragement. A bonus benefit (for me at least) is the mental workout I get too. I need to focus and concentrate during the workouts; both on getting my form correct and on the instructions given during the class. I like the variety of class formats offered and the ever-changing exercises done within each class. The variety keeps things fresh and helps me stay engaged and challenged.
