This a good studio for beginners. The Signature "Hot" Yoga is lukewarm at best, which was such a…read morelet-down because I was told that it gets up to 105 degrees...it barely reached 80. While the instructors are friendly and welcoming, there's not much flow or breath-to-movement. The routine felt like random moves just following one after the other. I also found the loud breathing of the instructor a bit facetious, if not comical. The lighting also did not make sense. Went from dark to bright for no reason. The studio is clean, but there's no showers. They offer small dry and wet/eucalyptus scented towels for use during /after class. Parking in the lot is free up to 90 minutes.

I've been coming to ARTHA for several months now, and I still love it just as much as when I first…read morestarted. It's become a regular part of my self-care routine. I've tried a mix of classes and services -- from challenging Pilates to deeply relaxing yin sessions and sound baths -- and each one offers something a little different depending on what I need that day. I also love that the infrared sauna sessions are set up in your own private room, which makes the experience feel even more relaxing and personal. They also do a great job of creating a sense of community. From time to time, they host special weekend events with thoughtful touches like goodie bags and guest sponsors, which makes you feel really valued as a member. I've even joined one of their group hikes, which was such a fun way to connect outside the studio. They've also brought in guest instructors for things like dance and Zumba-style classes, which keeps things fresh and interesting. What really keeps me coming back is the overall experience. The space is always clean, calm, and beautifully maintained, and I love how easy it is to just show up -- mats, towels, and props are all provided. Parking in the back is also a huge plus, especially for LA. I've found myself telling friends about it and inviting them as my guests, which says a lot. It genuinely feels like a little wellness sanctuary, and I'm really glad I found this place.

My experience with Artha ended very poorly after several years of association with the facility…read more I received numerous promotional messages encouraging trial visits, so I attended both the West LA and Studio City locations to determine which classes and schedule worked best before committing to a long-term membership. This is a normal step for anyone evaluating a fitness or wellness membership. Later, management accused me of violating their policies simply for attending both locations and permanently revoked my access. The explanation provided was inconsistent with the promotional outreach they themselves sent encouraging trial participation. The situation escalated further when I accompanied a referred guest using a guest pass that had been given to me by another member. Instead of handling the matter professionally or discussing it in good faith, "Miguel" imposed a permanent ban and stated he would not correspond further. The lack of flexibility, unwillingness to review context, and overall tone from management was disappointing for a business that markets itself as a community-oriented wellness space. Potential members should carefully review all policies and be aware that enforcement may be strict and final regardless of circumstances.

Wonderful teacher (long, wavy, red hair, sorry can't remember her name). She did a nice job setting us up for the hip stretches that can be spicy. Rooms are clean, parking lot behind studio, sound system really good, staff are friendly, yogis are nice and you can rent mats for $5. Blocks, belts and knee pads are free to borrow. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the studio city area again (:

Those of you who know me, I love yoga a lot. I have been to this studio back in 2022 and since then…read moreI haven't gone back. I do yoga at home with my own clean mat. Walked in today after few years of not being there and took a morning class with one of their teachers. She was very nice, kind, pleasant and knew her job well. They provide mat for $5.00 but, I didn't pay since I had my own mat with me. They also provide knee pads, blocks and bolsters. Bring yourself a bottle of water to hydrate yourself. Class lasted for 55 minutes. Class was not too difficult, and they go with the right pace to accommodate with beginners, and people who have been doing yoga for some time now. I really enjoyed the class and looking forward to going back. They have different prices for different classes and membership. For those who are interested. They also offer an online classes. Check the schedule. Place is clean, it's not too small, and can fit 14 to 17 people. Parking is in the back and that's all I have to say about today's visit. Namaste :-)

I was so happy to find Jenna a year ago when I was seeking help getting more flexible and strong…read moreafter a diagnosis of Lyme disease four years ago. Over the last four years, my illness had hijacked my body, and my once flexible frame had turned rigid with disuse. Lyme caused muscle stiffness, pain, and gripping, and had made it so that muscles easily strained. So, I backed off of most physical activity for a long time. I wasn't ready to return to the full class format, worrying that in a class, I wouldn't get the special care I needed in my unique situation. Through Covid I was also worried about Long Covid either triggering a Lyme flare, or adding to my issues, so overall a class was a no-go for me. I finally found exactly what I needed in Jenna's private sessions. She helped me gently move and stretch at first, just to get my body from concrete to hard rubber! Then, using her particular understanding of chronic illness, she added in deeper stretching and strength-building when she felt I was ready, helping my body loosen up and even just get used to the movements again. Over the last year, I have grown to feel so much more capable of activity, and she has given me a lifelong guide to stretching that is made just for me! This is something I will treasure forever... Thank you, Jenna, for everything you do!!

Her teaching is consistently thoughtful, well-structured, and deeply intuitive. Michelle offers a rare combination of technical knowledge and energetic sensitivity, and her retreats are exceptionally well curated--beautifully balancing cultural exploration with restorative, grounding practice.

I've been taking both prenatal yoga and Aqua Mamas classes with Georgina at Two Hearts Yoga since…read morearound 14 weeks of this pregnancy. I absolutely love how Georgina runs her prenatal yoga classes. Her flows and poses feel safe and supportive for our growing bodies and babies, but they aren't overly easy and still feel challenging. She encourages you to modify depending on how you feel and I always leave class feeling strong and empowered - exactly what I want and need as I prepare for this birth. The Aqua Mamas classes are just heavenly. They take place in a heated pool in an oasis that is her back yard. We use pool "weights", bands, and noodles during class. Similar to her yoga classes there is room for you to modify and get a good workout or take it easy and just enjoy stretching and being buoyant in the water. Class sizes are intimate and on the smaller side. It's a treasure to be surrounded by other pregnant women sharing stories, milestones, or just our latest aches and pains! I'm in my 39th week now - still taking yoga at Two Hearts and still feeling great. I attribute that to moving, stretching, and feeding off of the strong feminine energy that permeates her classes.

Immediately was greeted when I walked in. I signed up for the quiet Gong healing meditation. It was the day of the full moon and I needed a more calming vibe and I'm so glad I did. She told me what "supplies" we needed (we used two big heavy pillow things, two blankets, two blocks, and my own mat). I never knew yoga could utilize so many things but it was fun! We only did 4(ish) poses besides the warm up but the time flew by. And they felt so good and relaxing. The room was dark with fun lights. It was so pretty and so peaceful. Heather explained everything perfectly. And had some pretty great jokes. It was a really good, lighthearted, calm way to end my day. If I manage to get finances together, I'd love to do a membership here. Only con - parking is hard. Not much around there and no lot. But it's Noho. Just gotta prepare for that.

The perfect class to end the week and start on a good foot. They have lots of street parking nearby and the area isn't crowded on a Sunday evening. The studio is clean and they have mats, waters, books, blankets, etc for sale. They have two rooms available for classes. The rooms fit a good amount of people and are not too crowded. The temperature was pretty high, but it felt so good for this class. I appreciated the sequencing and the modifications available. I also appreciated being greeted by the teacher before the start of the class. Looking forward to making this one of my staple classes I keep on rotation.

Ended up being 3 mins late to class and the class was locked. I understand policies so you don't disrupt other students, but you should put directions down in the parking garages or arrows for stairs if you're going to be so strict on it. That's not what hospitality, peace, or calmness is about. Corporate slop of a yoga studio, go to small ones instead. I used to go all the time in Honolulu and it wasn't like that.
