I have taken 3 classes so far at Warrior 1 and so far I love it! I signed up for a class with a friend since she has gone before. I only had to download the app and set up an account, it was super easy to do. I signed the waiver on there and boom I was in! When I arrived at the facility I was greeted by the very nice receptionist, who also teaches classes, then signed in the check in book. She checked me in on the computer as well, then I was free to store my things and go on in. My very first class was hot flow by Kelsi. The class was an hour and we had spots right under the hot lamps. This class I sweated so much! I almost went out for a breather, but she turned on the fans and I was good! The classes end with a nice cold towel and a cool down period. The class was an intermediate class with beginners welcomed. I would recommend a true beginner's class if you are a first timer. My other classes I took Hot core that was taut by April. I absolutely LOVED this class. I recommend everyone take it. 45 minutes but it kicks your core's butt! I feel like I got a complete workout with just this one class. We used a block and a weight for this class too. April was very nice and encouraged people to use modifications if needed. I will be coming to this class every Sunday. So the prices differ depending on what you want. I am currently making sure I want to commit to a membership by going to the Sunday classes. All classes Sunday are only $8 bucks! I also believe there is something you can speak with the receptionist about if you purchase classes and use the credits as you go, might be discounted since you purchase them up front. I will look into it more and update my review. The facility is located behind sonic on Allen and Stockdale. They have clean restrooms and a locker area to store your personal belongings. I have left my jacket and shoes by the benches with no problems. I have seen some people bring their phones into the hot room, but I would rather leave in my car or in a locker. Love it here, will be coming back for sure! read more

Warrior 1 Yoga is great. Being new to yoga I thought I would give it a try, so January 2 of last year I took my first class. It was great and I really enjoyed the session. I am an older retired guy in my mid 60's and have several health concerns, so I wasn't sure how much yoga I could actually do. It has been a year since I started and I have lost 37 pound, I have lost12% body fat and I feel better then I have in years. I can do most things in class and if something causes to much of a strain, I simply don't do it. The instructors continually say to listen to your body and don't do anything that might cause pain. I am a fan of Warrior 1 Yoga and consider this to be a lifestyle change. read more

I love this location! The staff is friendly, such a variety of classes, and the location itself is a relaxing and encouraging environment!

Warrior 1 has helped me so much with neck and back pain. The restore class is great for mobility if you're working out hardcore! All of the instructors are very attentive to your needs. I always ask for feedback on my form so I don't create more pain. Everyone of the instructors will remind me throughout the class. I have felt my best physically and mentally sense I joined warrior 1!! And who doesn't love Dana the owner!!!?, she's a truly genuine bad*** that is passionate and motivating. I always feel welcomed and excited. I truly enjoy showing up to class. read more

Before April 2016 After March 2018 Warrior 1 Yoga has helped me physically with less aches and pains, mentallyby reducing stress and given me more confidence in myself. I make better food choices now, I enjoy the same foods, just not as much or as often. As a result I've lost 20+ pounds. Thank you Linda Boden for all your encouragement you are an inspiration to me. And thank you Warrior 1 Yoga. read more

Highly recommend!!!! I absolutely love this studio. I have been to all types of various yoga studios, gyms, group fitness places as a student and a teacher and I can honestly say how much I love this one and so grateful I found it. They have a great variety for class offerings from yoga to strengthening to barre to spin so you can always change it up or stick to a routine. Plus I love the heated room! Hot yoga does wonders for the body and I'm so glad they offer hot yoga and other heated classes for a true sweat work out. The lights are dim too so you don't have to worry much about appearance or your neighbor- you can just focus on your practice and working hard! All the teachers are awesome and the manager and owner are amazing!!! Classes are fun and challenging and I always leave sweaty and happy!! Definitely try it out - you won't regret it!!! read more

Warrior 1 has been such a great experience for me! For starters, I used to HATE spin. I tried it a couple times other places and was not a fan. I decided to give it another shot, this time at Warrior 1, since I had gotten a membership. As with any gym, you find instructors you like and instructors you don't really care for. Georgia and April are by far my FAVORITE instructors! They have really contributed to my (now) passion and addiction for spin! April is intense and will kick your butt the entire class. Georgia has this fire and energy that makes you want to push harder and give her more. The restore yoga classes are also a fave of mine and Lori is amazing over at the Calloway location! But spin is where I've really found my happy place and I owe it to Georgia and April! :) read more

definitely a cool experience and i would do it again but this class specifically with marissa was not beginner friendly

I've been going to Warrior 1 for nearly three years and let me just say, it has gone down hill! First of all, they do not answer the phone, which is extremely frustrating when their app isn't working and you are trying to cancel a class before the ridiculous six-hour rule. Then, being charged $15 and not having anyone to contact to reverse such an outrageous charge. Second, the app is AWFUL! What in the world is wrong with the new app? Why are there so many issues with it and ESPECIALLY with the wait list option?? Third, there aren't many options for 5:30PM or 6:00PM classes anymore and most of the instructors that were reliable are now gone. I cannot find any HIIT, PiYoo or Barre classes that are offered at 5:30PM or 6:00PM. I get off at 5:00PM and so do many people that I know that go to Warrior 1-- why wouldn't you offer 5:30PM or 6:00PM classes for those that get off at 5? Fourth, what was the point of the heart rate monitors if the screens are never turned on? I am sure it was to compete with places like Orange Theory but the option is rarely made available. It was such a waste of money. My Apple watch can track me. I bought it to compete with others. April is the ONLY reason that I keep going to Warrior 1. If she weren't there, I would cancel my membership. I think it is time that they step up their game! Now we have more choices in Bakersfield and it isn't cheap to be paying $149 a month for dissatisfaction. I suggest hiring instructors and adding more desirable classes in the evenings (5:30PM & 6:00PM)-- not just restorative or flow classes. In addition, PLEASE make it a point to use the screens and allow those of us that paid for the heart rate monitor to USE it for what it was intended for. Also, charging people $15 for something that is out of their control (a business not answering the phone during regular business hours and/or app issues) should NOT be happening. read more

This "yoga" studio is a joke. With classes with names like "Hot Butt Lift" and the blaring of Christian music during classes I would say calling this a "Yoga" studio is a bit of a stretch. This place is more like the "Walmart" of yoga studios. During this pandemic it was brought to my attention that the owner was still charging people for their membership even though the establishment was closed. Shady lady!! Now that California has once again placed restrictions due to the rising numbers of Covid cases the owner has said she will continue to operate stating financial strains on her businesses. Perhaps that's explains why she continued charging clients for their memberships during the closures. Hmmm I find it disgusting that an establishment that is supposed to be promoting "wellness" is putting profits before lives. Times are hard and we're ALL hurting. read more

Amazing place... it meets you where you are in your fitness level. Two years ago after surgery and other life events I gave up on exercise and healthy eating. I was feeling terrible and had gained a lot of weight. I walked into the studio intimidated by exercise. Lindsay encouraged me to give it a try and after a month I was feeling better. After 3 months I had the stamina I needed for a 17 day trip to Uganda. I also lost 25 lbs with a combination of yoga and better eating. Rochelle is great for building strength and balance April works you very hard. Wendy will have you dripping sweat Kelsi is great at teaching form and is so encouraging. read more

I was looking forward to taking a class with my friend and I haven't been in years but I woke up feeling sick today a couple hours before the class. (My sons been coughing so I guess he passed on something.) you must cancel 6 hours before the class to not get a $15 cancellation fee. So not only did I spend $25 on the class, then I just paid $15 to cancel because I'm sick and coughing and didn't cancel within the 6 hour window.... I don't understand why you don't just take the deposit paid for the class, but you have to charge an extra $15 for a total of $40 just for me not to be able to go. I didn't want to be coughing all over the place and get others sick. I understand losing my $25 but the extra $15? I was excited to start taking classes again, but this upsets me so much that. It's not like you lost any money on me not going because you kept my whole $25 so my spot was paid for regardless.... read more

This "yoga" studio is not for everyone! Don't get me wrong, It's bad ass!! But if you looking for JUST a traditional "yoga session" hoping the 120F*sweat your literal ass off TEMP will heighten your stretch & meditative state, you may be disappointed. Don't get me wrong they have those options. But they are so much more!!! If you can afford it grab a private session or at-least introduction after class with the owner Dana. That is, if you can slow her down long enough as she goes from spinning your ass off in a "warm up" spin class into one of her many creative variation of stretching, strengthening, and moving your body into positions you never thought possible and may even be illegal in some states like Utah, & then talking you into getting naked and exposing all your glory to -220*F in their Cry-yo frozen ass off tank. Because just sweating them off wasn't good enough!!! Dana has an amazing passion and an extreme Warrior approach to help you set and achieve your health and fitness goals and should charge twice what she does. Warrior One is an amazing gym with a culture where both men and woman of all ranges can come as they are and experience a kick ass work out all while detoxing Friday nights mistakes away. Bakersfield is lucky to have such a place as this !!! read more

Review for Warrior 1 I met Dana Healy about a year and a half ago. I had never done yoga before and was a bit skeptical of it for a long time due to religious reasons. I had heard great things about Warrior 1 Yoga on various occasions even before meeting Dana but it wasn't until I met her that I finally decided to give it a try. From day one I fell in love with the practice, energy and kindness with which I was greeted every day. My teenage daughter and I both would attend daily to the 5 AM classes which to my surprise we were very consistent with, given the fact that I am not at all a morning person but for yoga I was getting up at 3:50AM every day and excited to get my day started with my morning practice. Warrior One Yoga quickly took a special place in my daily routine as I look forward to it every day. It wasn't long before I started bringing all of my nieces to yoga with me. All of whom are teenagers and to my surprise they too were up and ready at 4 AM and eager to get the day started with our yoga routine. I found myself talking about this place on a daily basis recommending it to clients, family members and friends. The energy, peace, happiness and relieve of body aches and pains I was feeling, I knew I wanted to share with everyone I knew. Eventually the opportunity arose to take the teachers training course through Warrior One Yoga and though I wanted to so badly take it, I was feeling inadequate to do so but Dana encouraged me to take it and today I am so grateful and proud to say that thanks to her kind and loving words, I have officially completed my 200 hour yoga teachers training course through Warrior One Yoga! I went in not knowing what I was getting myself into and feeling insecure expecting only to finish this course and become a certified yoga instructor. I came out of it with several new friends, amazing woman who inspired and encouraged me to believe in myself along the way. As a person who has suffered with lack of energy most of my life and depression for years, I could have never imagined doing something this intense but yoga has given me more energy than anything else I've ever tried in the past and more peace. First and foremost I am thankful to God for allowing good health and putting these amazing people in my life to better my quality of life, thank you Dana for this amazing opportunity and for being such a kind and loving human being and gracing us with your beautiful and encouraging smile every day! The passion you have for your business shows in every corner of your studios and on every smiling face of your employees and clients as well! read more

‍ I am humbled and feel extremely honored to have received my RYT 200hr yoga certificate by one of the most talented, knowledgeable, and passionate woman I have ever known, my teacher, US Veteran, and owner of Warrior 1 Yoga, Dana Healy!!! Her love and encouragement has lifted my soul with the confidence and preparation I needed to deepen my practice and share it with others. I am grateful for my classmates who were the best group of smart, caring, compassionate, and supportive women. I am so thankful for Ali, Sam, Charlotte, and Helen! They hold a very special place in my heart. Love my Yogi sisters! To all the other instructors, management, and friendly staff that took part in our training, I appreciate you. I always felt and continue to feel welcomed from the very first day I walked in this beautiful and artistic studio. I'm grateful for your positive vibes and for making me feel like family. So much physical, mental, and spiritual work was exuded from my being while in this intensive training. It wasn't easy, but worth every minute of it. I have been guided by the grace of God every step of the way. I hold dearly all the signs and miracles my dear God has gifted me with along this heartwarming journey. Once again, a million thank yous Warrior 1 and Dana Healy. I'm so happy to be apart of this empowering yoga community. Namaste. ‍‍ read more

Warrior 1 Yoga - Registered yoga school, RYT 200 Yoga Alliance certificate by Dana Healy and awarded to her student. ‍‍ - Yoga Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I started a six week challenge and just completed it. I am a complete newbie and had no Idea what I was doing when I began. All the instructor are amazing and I have learned so much in such a small amount of time. Yoga is not something I would have ever thought I would enjoy, but definitely going to add Warrior 1 to my regular routine. I have never felt better physically or mentally. Thanks to Dana and her team at Warrior 1 read more

just started at Warrior one and I love it. The facility is nice, the classes are great and so are the instructors. The yoga room is so neat and the heated classes feel so good. Everyone should try it out! read more

Thank you so much, Dana!!! Dana, the owner is a hyper athlete and she believed in me when I did. I was at wits end trying to lose weight for over 10 years. Anyhow I did her hair analysis tests, lipolight, hot yoga and buti. I went ahead and made it part of my routine. It took three weeks to see a change and when I did the pounds just started dropping. Thanks for making the impossible possible Dana and believing in me! read more

Although when they are operating they have great classes, they have let clients know that they will not be suspending dues OR giving refunds for the time they are closed. they will revisit April. Boo! Some people have lost their jobs and every penny counts. I understand they are a small business, but if they are closed, they shouldn't have anyone to pay, correct? read more

Best yoga studio in town. Some of the yoga instructors are 500-hours certified, others are 300-hours. The place is clean and the service is outstanding. Other studios in town hire instructors without even certification. read more

I came here for a spin class with Angelica and I loved it. I've done some spin classes before but this is definitely the best one in Bakersfield. It was pretty easy to book a class using the MINDBODY app. The place itself is very clean and organized. They have some cute items for sale up front and the decor is also nice. After the spin class was done we were provided with some lemon scented towels which were refreshing after an intense workout. I'll definitely be back for more! read more

Honestly the best. I've only been doing yoga for 3 weeks & ive loved every. Single. Class.

I've been doing yoga in Warrior 1 Yoga for more than 3 years. I go there almost everyday. I love all the classes, especially Ashtanga, Hot Flow, and Hot Pilates. All teachers are amazing... they're all very professional and are very helpful and supportive. read more

I've purchased lipo package via Groupon, the front desk Kristine was so helpful & informative with my lipo light treatment . I've enjoyed Dana hot HITT/ yoga class a lot. I felt refreshed that all my toxin were gone after a good sweat. I have one more class with Shanna. I'm pretty sure all the classes at Warrior Yoga are fun but at same time, they help people to achieve healthy mind & body. I highly recommend Warrior 1 yoga read more

Kind of a bummer that I just updated this 5 star review 20 days ago to say things were still peachy, but I'm exasperated by a staff member who always seems to single me out to be rude. I don't want to name her bc that's not nice, but I have no idea what her problem is with me--maybe it's just my face! But I've tried really hard to break the ice with her, and I'm over it. So much so, I think I'll be leaving this otherwise stellar studio. Cliques and bullies aren't cute, girlfriend! read more

Amazing place to go! Loved going to hot yoga,HIIT and cycling. All the instructors are amazing and you will get the best workout in. Highly recommend to try it out if you haven't. read more

The staff and facility are the best. Super knowledgeable. You become family! highly recommend to try it out. PS Mondays if your a VET come for free! Call ask all the info!!!! read more

I've really enjoyed every experience there. The instructors are really nice and welcoming. It's a great place for the body, mind, and spirit. Very grateful! I will continue to recommend it to my family and friends! read more

I signed up for a membership and it's been well over a week now and all I can say is WOW. I am addicted. I have fallen in love with this place. Seriously, the entire vibe in this location is absolutely hypnotizing. My classes have become my place of refuge and relaxation. Every day I look forward to going to my classes and improving. The girls in the front desk have always been so helpful and sweet. I will definitely continue going here for as long as my wallet will allow! read more

So far booking platform is amateur. Why have online booking option if it ineffective? Definitely am thinking, "why bother"? Really not into getting dressed to go only to be told I needed a Rez. Lame read more

A couple of friends and I went for hot yoga the class, instructor, and lemon grass towel (hahah) was awesome. The only down side was they number the spots so we were all split up around the room. Another thing the front desk people were not very friendly at all it almost seemed like you were inconvencing them by asking questions or even just trying to pay for your class. read more

So happy to find a boutique fitness studio on this side of town. It's super clean and spacious (nice high ceilings). The hot yoga classes here are great and the instructors are fun and down to earth. Excited to try the spin classes as well! read more

Clean, nice environment, and affordable. It was only $10 for an hour. First time trying yoga, not to mention hot yoga. I was worried I'd feel self conscious and not be able to keep up. That was not the case at all. Studio was dim and comforting. The ambiance was soothing. I wasn't focused on being self conscious at all. The instructor was consistent and easy to follow. She gave great instructions including letting beginners like me know that if we felt comfortable we could move to the next step, or hold the pose we were in and that would be perfectly fine. The pace was one I was able to keep up with. I've never sweat so much in my life. It felt great. I'm definitely looking forward to attending again. If you want to try and don't have a mat, they have mats, blocks, and straps available to use. read more

I'm a complete newbie to yoga. Took a hot restorative class for beginners with Dana H. to see if it might help with my back pain and overall declining flexibility. Best decision I've made in years. Used the app for booking the first session and it was seamless and easy. Pause for a 4-class block at the same time. I was made to feel very welcome, the workout was amazing, the facilities outstanding, and I felt better physically than I have in years. I'll keep going as long as I can, and I'm looking forward to feeling better and better as I go. read more

Warrior 1 happily took my $145 unlimited class fee for the month of March. Immediately after paying my membership fee, the state was placed on a massive shutdown affecting many people and businesses. Because the shutdown happened quite suddenly, i was never able to take any classes for the month of service i paid for. I attempted to email the business to request my account be suspended for unused services. Fast forward to August...Dana, Kristin, nor any other individual from Warrior 1 management has had the decency to reply to my email or my multiple calls. I respectfully requested to have my account credited for the month that was paid but never used. I was not looking for a refund or any freebies. This studio is crooked and obviously feels they are too good to reply to members whose accounts are in good standing. As a military veteran i would have expected Dana to have the sort of ethics that places honesty and integrity as a high priority when running a business. read more

This place is my new obsession. I don't even know where to start - but it's 5 stars on every level. Location - FINALLY...a yoga studio on my side of town. Nice business center. Seems like everything else was always downtown and that drive for me is YUCK. The inside of this studio is also great. Really friendly staff (sometimes I feel a snobby or stuck up vibe from yogis like it's some elite club or something) and the check in process is so easy. The room is clean, scented like lemongrass...the floor is amazing, it's dimly lit, decorated nicely. I could go on and on. Staff/Instructors - I have not had a bad class here or one that did not challenge me. I cannot stress enough that sometimes yoga classes can seem intimidating or cliqueish to outsiders who aren't doing yoga regularly. I have always been a lover of yoga, but stopped due to location, schedule conflicts, and this feeling of snobbery I disdain. Warrior 1 is VERY come as you are, no judgement, do what is best for you and your body, and is probably my favorite part about what sets this stuidio apart from all other yoga studios. That being said, whether you are a beginner or have done yoga for quite some time, you will WORK and be challenged and YOU WILL SWEAT. Glorious, copious amounts of sweat. Like a whore in church. Also other things that really set this studio apart from the pack: They have an iphone app. WHATTTTT. How cool and easy to see the schedule, sign up for a class, pay - even set alerts on your phone or get push notifications if something changes. Schedule - HELLO early morning classes! Sunday Classes! Late evening classes! This is a working single mom's DREAM come true! I can finally hit up a yoga class or two during the week and STILL have time to make it to work. Thank you baby jesus of yogaheaven. Also, they have clean mats available, require you to wipe down your feet before you enter - give you AMAZING lemongrass scented COLD towels after a hot sweaty yoga sesh. They have hand weights, blocks - everything you could possibly need is provided. Anyways, from your typical gym rat and weight lifter, who has always been a fan of yoga (just not the snobby vibe of it) - I REALLY like this place. So far I have gotten about 5 of my friends as equally obsessed with this place as well. I'm like the unpaid spokesperson of Warrior 1 Yoga. Andddd I need yoga right now cuz I got really excited writing this review and need to calm down.... read more

Love coming to this place for hot yoga but recently they have the spots numbered??? I liked it before where you were able to pick where you wanted to be. Now I go to yoga with my friend and we get placed across the room from each other. Not a very well thought out system read more

This is not your traditional yoga studio, They play very upbeat music for classes like "Buti Yoga" -Yes that's right, they have a variety of "Buti" classes offered. Although it's unusual, it's a great cardio work out and it's helping strengthen my body. The sound system isn't always great but I think they are working on it. The popular classes are super packed -I would advice to not pack the classes like sardines. It's uncomfortable. For traditional yoga I would highly recommend Promita's class. She focuses on the spiritual side of the yoga practice which I truly appreciate. I go to her Friday classes and I always leave with the feeling of gratitude and purpose. The stretches are also amazing for someone like me that is working on a computer all day. read more

Really upset with this place at the moment. We moved out of the area a few months ago and called to cancel our subscription. The people at the front tell us we need to come in person to cancel. We live three hours away now, so that's not an easy option. They told us a manager would call us and this has not happened. We've been playing phone tag for a few months now and we've spent around 400$ on a service we aren't using and can't cancel. read more

I just finished my first class at Warrior 1 and all I can say are positive things. The staff was friendly and genuinely interested in my experience. The instructor was patient, yet encouraging; she was thorough in describing how poses should flow and comfortable with aiding students through difficult postures. Did I mention they have state-of-the-art infrared heating elements from the ceiling? How cool is that! Heated yoga is more intense than the practices I had ever done before, I could feel my body purging toxins as sweat dripped onto the mat below. I will definitely be back for more and would highly recommend this studio to any one interested in taking up the discipline. read more
