Featured Meditation Open Venice
The in-person studio of Open, the meditation and breathwork app, in a plywood-lined practice room under an oval skylight on Market Street. Classes run from 6:30 a.m.: Flow, Align, Tone and Power Tone through the day, then Breath + Sound and Restore in the evenings, and the studio also books 30-minute Hot+Cold sauna sessions. Mats, sweat towels and eye masks are provided, phones stay out of the practice room, and first-timers are asked to arrive 15 minutes early for a tour.
Sculpt shefayoga Venice
A beautiful Main Street studio with dharma-rich flows, sculpt, breathwork and reiki offerings.
Ashtanga A Shala LA
A traditional Mysore-style Ashtanga room run by Nina Collins, entered from the back of a laundromat parking lot through a mint green metal door. The Mysore room is open weekday mornings and on Sunday, and closed on Saturdays and on new and full moon days; its tuition page mentions evening classes that the online schedule does not list. New students commit to a full month with no drop-ins, and tuition is a trust-based, tiered exchange.
Traditional Body and Brain Burbank
Part of the Korean Body and Brain chain, which is not yoga in the vinyasa sense: the classes braid together gentle stretching, tai chi and qigong, breathing exercises and meditation, with the nervous system rather than the shape as the point. Good for anyone who wants to move slowly and be talked through it. Trial classes are the usual way in.
Traditional Body and Brain Koreatown
The Koreatown centre of the Korean Body and Brain chain, on the lower level at 3959 Wilshire. As at the Burbank and Northridge rooms, this is not yoga in the vinyasa sense: gentle stretching, tai chi and qigong, breathing exercises and meditation, aimed at the nervous system rather than the shape. Some classes are streamed as well as taught in the room, and some run online only. A trial class is the usual way in.
Meditation Body and Brain Torrance
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.
Traditional Body and Brain Valley
The Northridge centre of the Korean Body and Brain chain, at Nordhoff and Balboa. As at the Burbank room, this is not yoga in the vinyasa sense: classes braid gentle stretching, tai chi and qigong, breathing exercises and meditation, with the nervous system rather than the shape as the point. Slow, talked-through, and easy to start from nothing. A trial class is the usual way in.
Sound bath CEREMNY
A first-floor Washington Blvd space that runs soul yoga and sound baths alongside somatic workshops, breathwork and a 200-hour teacher training. The schedule leans slow and guided rather than back-to-back drop-ins, and monthly immersive workshops are the centre of it, worth checking the calendar before you plan a first visit.
Flow Embody Through Yoga
A small studio tucked into the ground floor of an apartment building on Oxnard, built explicitly around not being intimidating: vinyasa, a gentle flow, restorative and a prenatal class, all pitched at every level. Every class ends with a sound bath in savasana, and there is a longer hour-long sound bath weekly. Warm floors, a brew-your-own-tea bar, and an intro week of unlimited classes for $30.
Flow Forward Fold Yoga
A small upstairs room on the corner of Ventura and Amestoy, brick-walled and candlelit, running in-person and online classes built around breath and movement. Enter through the alley on weekdays; the studio is on the second floor with its logo on the window.
Slow flow Garden of Yoga
A small, deliberately unglamorous studio on a residential street off Ventura, running mindful, gentle, restorative and mixed-level classes with an emphasis on working around injuries and chronic pain rather than pushing through them. Every class is offered live online as well as in the room, there is a pranayama and meditation class on the schedule, and sound baths run monthly. The draw is hands-on alignment feedback in a room small enough for the teacher to actually see you.
Flow Metta Meditation and Yoga Studio
Open since 2018 on the Montrose edge of Glendale, and unusual in giving meditation equal billing with the mat: short guided sits are scheduled as their own twenty-minute classes straight after the evening Vinyasa, not tacked onto the end of one. The rest of the week runs Hatha, Yin, Gentle Yoga, a breathwork-and-twists class and a stretch ritual, with crystal-bowl sound bath meditations as the recurring special event. There are meditation chairs as well as mats.
Flow practiceALTADENA
A room-temperature studio on Lake Avenue whose sessions are named rather than graded, flow, rest, a half-and-half flow-then-rest, an alignment workshop class, a philosophy-and-drills class called yoke, and a seated pranayama and meditation sit. All are open to every level and mats and props are free to borrow. Pricing is a two-tier sliding scale, Phoenix or Patron, that the studio asks you to choose by financial capacity after the fire, with a lower supported rate on marked sessions and community rates for students, teachers, essential workers and veterans on request. The studio publishes its post-fire remediation in detail: full attic and HVAC remediation, walls sanded and resealed, donated replacement mats and props, a continuously running air-quality monitor, and classes cancelled if readings are unsafe. Contact is by email; there is no phone line.
Flow Red Diamond Yoga Washington
The second Red Diamond room, on Washington Boulevard, running the same mix as the Palms studio (vinyasa flow, restorative, traditional practice and meditation), with an infrared sauna attached. Teacher trainings, breathwork trainings, workshops and community adventures round it out. Long opening hours: most days from 7am to 8pm, short on Saturdays.
Flow Reserve Venice
A 50-person studio on Abbot Kinney that hosts independent teachers rather than employing its own, so the calendar is a rotating bill of yoga, pilates, sound baths, breathwork and workshops, each ticketed on its own. There is a sauna, a cold plunge and an outdoor terrace, and the room is also rented for brand events. Come for a specific session on the calendar, not for a drop-in timetable.
Flow Rise Mindful Healing
A Main Street studio that frames everything around nervous-system regulation rather than fitness, the schedule splits into mindful movement (vinyasa, hatha, mat pilates) and restorative practices (yin, breathwork, sound baths). Massage, red light therapy and an infrared sauna sit alongside the classes, so a visit can be a class, a treatment or both.
Sound bath Sound Bird Center
A sound bath, yoga and breathwork room on Washington Blvd that publishes its opening hours, unusual in this corner of the listings, where most schedules sit behind a booking app. Mostly evenings, with a Saturday and Sunday morning block.
Flow The Awoken Space
A small pastel room above the Pacific Coast Highway with an ocean view, running yoga, meditation and breathwork classes and workshops. Half of it is a curated shop (books, records and handmade objects), and the project extends into a podcast, so the space is as much a scene as a timetable. Contact is by email; check the schedule page before driving out.
The Clearing Topanga
A community-run studio in the canyon, named for the space in a forest where people gather. The schedule is built from local teachers and runs slow yin, creative flows, breath sessions and sound baths rather than a single house style. Memberships and studio rental are both on offer; contact is by email.
Meditation The Mindry
A meditation-first wellness centre off Cross Creek Road that describes itself as a sanctuary more than a studio, cushions before mats. The in-studio schedule mixes meditation and yoga, with private sessions, body and energy work, workshops and trainings alongside, plus an on-demand library if you would rather practise at home. There is a shop attached selling incense, oils and singing bowls.
Yin Thrive Health and Wellness Collective
A collective of more than thirty independent practitioners founded by acupuncturist Margot Chambers in 2021, across two buildings on Stanford Avenue, and a healing practice first: most of it is one-to-one treatment (acupuncture, chiropractic, massage, herbal medicine) booked by appointment. The weekly group classes run in the upstairs studio at 2907, reached by the outdoor stairs: Yin Yoga and Breathe & Flow on Wednesday mornings, an evening stretch class for mobility, mat Pilates on Thursdays, holotropic-style breathwork on Saturday nights and a Sunday strength class for women in menopause. Mats and props are provided, and a class is $35 or $125 for four. The hours shown are the class times.
Meditation Vedic Yoga and Meditation
Not a drop-in studio in the usual sense: this is the Swadharma Ashram, an ashram, Ayurveda clinic and college on Kenwood Street that dates its founding to 1901, with a Vedic Yoga studio inside it. The yoga taught is Swadharma Kriya Yoga alongside Sanskrit, Vedic philosophy and Jyotisha, and the same address offers Ayurvedic therapies and consultations. Sound baths, a women's circle and teacher trainings are on the public calendar. Come for the tradition and the study, not for a vinyasa class.
Kundalini Yoga Galactica
A small kundalini, breathwork and sound-bath operation running evening classes on Gower Street, plus outdoor sessions up at Runyon Canyon. Community-priced and openly cannabis-friendly, which is unusual enough to say out loud. Twice-weekly rather than a full timetable. Check the calendar, and note the site also bills itself as Burbank, while the only street address it publishes is this one.
Sound bath Zula Den
A West Adams space built around sound healing, breathwork and guided meditation rather than a class timetable. Ceremonies, workshops and community gatherings are the format. Come for the evening events rather than a drop-in.
