18 Slow flow & gentle studios in Los Angeles
Hot yoga Veda Yoga Culver City
A welcoming two-room studio with infrared heat, sculpt classes and immersion/teacher-training programs. Its own site and booking system call it Veda Yoga Venice, since it is on Venice Boulevard, but it is in Culver City; the second Veda room is on La Cienega.
Sound bath Yoga Nest Venice
An eclectic, light-filled studio known for candlelit yin, soundbaths and a magical community feel.
Sculpt shefayoga Venice
A beautiful Main Street studio with dharma-rich flows, sculpt, breathwork and reiki offerings.
Slow flow & gentle Power Yoga East
A light-filled second-floor loft focused on breath-led, steady practice rather than high-intensity flow.
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.
Vinyasa 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.
Slow flow & gentle 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.
Ashtanga Lila Yoga Studio
A little further along Foothill from Yoga Rebel, and pitched at the traditional end: a genuine Ashtanga class sits on the same timetable as vinyasa, gentle flow, Yin, Yoga Nidra and a Restore and Sound class, with targeted hips-and-hamstrings and shoulders mobility sessions for people working around a specific restriction. Lila Strength and Hatha Power cover the harder end.
Vinyasa 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.
Vinyasa 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.
Hot yoga Satorii Yoga and Wellness
Moved from West LA to Berkeley Street in the summer of 2026, with a heated room, a non-heated room and a dedicated meditation space. Classes run seven days a week: a slow, breath-led foundation class, a signature yang-then-yin hybrid, a conditioning class of strength and mobility drills, and a faster intermediate flow. Most of the room work is heated to 85–90°F, so come expecting to sweat unless you pick a non-heated slot.
Traditional lineage Spiritual Heart Yoga Center
A neighbourhood studio on Honolulu Avenue in Montrose, built on Hatha: the schedule runs from a traditional Hatha class through Hatha Flow, a Gentle Flow that is explicitly open to prenatal students, Gentle Yin and a half-flow half-restorative Flow and Release. Advance booking is required and walk-ins are not taken. Unlimited members also get an on-demand library of over a hundred videos, and there is a small boutique attached, open Sundays.
Vinyasa flow Sunstone Yoga
A single-location Westchester studio running vinyasa, yin and slow flow classes seven days a week, with sound baths and its own teacher training alongside. Booked through the studio's own online schedule.
Vinyasa flow Yoga Rebel Studio
Boutique strength, yoga and recovery on Foothill Boulevard, running 20-plus classes a week across three tracks, dynamic vinyasa and candlelit slow flows on the yoga side, plus strength, mat Pilates and mobility work, and sound bath meditations on the events calendar. Classes cap at twelve students, which is the reason to come: at that size a teacher can actually watch you.
Power YogaSix Long Beach
On Pacific Coast Highway about a quarter mile from West Coast Sweat, which makes this corner of Long Beach an easy place to try two very different rooms in a week. The YogaSix menu is the chain's usual six, graded by intensity and labelled plainly, which is the appeal if you are new enough that a studio's private vocabulary is a barrier.
Power YogaSix Porter Ranch
The north-Valley branch of the chain, in the Vineyards centre off Rinaldi. Same six-class menu as every other YogaSix (a slow flow, a restorative, a hot one, a power class, a weighted sculpt and a mobility class), each labelled by intensity, so you can pick without having to decode a studio's private vocabulary. That predictability is the whole point if you are new.
Power YogaSix Redondo Beach
On North Pacific Coast Highway, about half a mile from the pier. The chain's six class types graded by intensity, which makes it a low-risk first studio: you can read the schedule and know what you are walking into without having practised before.
Power YogaSix Rolling Hills
Named for Rolling Hills but actually in Torrance, on Rolling Hills Road near the Palos Verdes edge. Standard YogaSix menu of six class types graded by intensity, from a slow restorative through a hot one, a power class and a weighted sculpt, each labelled so you can pick without guessing.
