Body and Brain Torrance

Not yet rated

The Hawthorne Boulevard centre of the Korean Body and Brain chain, and the fourth of its LA rooms in this directory. As at Burbank, Northridge and Koreatown, the classes braid gentle stretching, tai chi and qigong, breathing exercises and meditation, aimed at the nervous system rather than the shape. A trial class is the usual way in.

Kefi Yoga

Not yet rated

Kefi is a Greek word for joy and passion that, the studio says, has no direct English translation, and the studio was built out of it: founder Angeliki Papadakis started teaching her brother through the pandemic shutdown, when the corporate studios closed and their teachers and students scattered. It grew from there into two studios on Crenshaw Boulevard in Torrance running 8 to 13 classes a day, including heated Hot Fusion, and the LA Times has written it up.
