The cutest studio with excellent instructors, friendly staff, and a deep commitment and focus on meditative and gratitude aspects of yoga practice. Love it here!

At the beginning of the summer, I decided to invest in a monthly membership at Arise Yoga, and it the BEST decision I've made in a very long time. Since I can store my mat at the beautiful studio and easily sign up for an array of classes, I have found myself getting into a yoga routine that has eluded me in the past. So far, I have been able to attend 2-3 classes a week, and I feel like a new person. I have now worked with five different teachers, each one so welcoming, clear, and inspiring. Arise Yoga is indeed a gem of Oakland; I am so happy to have joined the community. Jenny (the manager) will make you feel right at home.

Such a wonderful opportunity this week to take three classes at Arise Yoga! The studio is spacious, comfortable and so inviting! However it is the caliber, warmth and dedication to practice from the staff that stands out the most. Thank you so much!
