Just a few benefits of yoga include:

Depending on your fitness level, any of our classes might be appropriate for your first class. However, we often recommend new students try our 9-week yoga basics program. This program is designed for people who have no yoga experience or for those wanting to refresh their practice. Alignment principles, basic postures, breathing practices, and relaxation methods are taught. We often run specials on this program, and you can also begin it with our 30 days for $30 intro offer. If you are currently very fit, you might enjoy a vinyasa class.

Many people enjoy the convenience of our unlimited classes at a monthly rate (on auto-pay) of $85. Monthly unlimited without auto-pay is $108. Drop-in classes are $20. A 10-class package, good for 4 months, is $165. The annual unlimited rate is $950. See all of our pricing.

Our introductory offer is available for students who have never taken classes with us before, and who currently reside within 45 minutes of our studio home. 30 consecutive days of unlimited classes allow students to try everything River Rock Yoga and Pilates has to offer!

River Rock Yoga and Pilates offers a wide range of yoga and Pilates mat classes for students at every level of practice. We also offer workshops and other community-building events. We offer massage therapy, Reiki, Ayurvedic and nutrition counseling, and mental health therapy sessions.

Yes! Please sign in to classes in advance. Once you reserve the spot, please know that we are holding it just for you. That being said, if you find that you are unable to attend, please go into your account and cancel your reservation within 2 hours of class time or earlier if possible. There is a $5 charge for failing to cancel your reservation in advance. You may register for classes on our website or on our convenient River Rock Yoga and Pilates APP. Our APP can be downloaded from the APP store. The link is on our website’s homepage.

Our classes range anywhere between 7 and 15 people. 

Depending on the class type, most yoga classes are 1 hour and 15 minutes. Class times are listed on the class schedule. All Pilates mat classes are 1 hour.

Please wear comfortable clothes that you can move in. Usually, clothing that is not too tight and not too loose feels best for your body. Classes are done with bare feet.

Bring your yoga mat and any other props you use that you prefer not to share with other students. We have a generous selection of props available for your use at the studio including mats, blocks, straps, bolsters, sandbags, and Pilates rings. Please sanitize used props with provided sanitizer after each use. Bring your water if needed.

Shoes are left outside the yoga room, under benches during class. Keys may be hung on our key rack, and jackets on our hooks. We are not responsible for your valuable personal items during your class. Please keep them with you, or leave them in your locked car.

You do not have to be fit or flexible to do yoga. We like to say, “If you can breathe, you can do yoga!” Your flexibility will improve with consistent practice. Most students feel more and more comfortable in their bodies over time and learn to be less judgmental and more loving toward themselves through the practice.

You are absolutely NOT too old! Many of our students find yoga to be an enjoyable and helpful practice throughout all the ages and stages of their lives. We welcome students from age 3 to 103! We currently have students enjoying practice well into their 80’s.

When you sign up for a class, we reserve a spot in the room just for you! If, for some reason, you are not able to attend the class, please go to our APP or website and remove your reservation as far in advance as possible, so that the spot can be used by another student.
