Yogalution Movement & Wellness

Probably the most beautiful yoga studio that I've ever been to. They have SQUISHY FLOORS and big windows in the main studio, looking out on a beautiful courtyard, which was MAGIC! For those of us who are boney and heavy, this is a game changer! Andy teaches a fantastic class at 7 AM on Mondays. It was the perfect class to warm up my hips, back, and core - the perfect start for the week, especially if you're a guy/daddy over 40 🙌 I also appreciate the mission of this facility, and that is LGBTQ-inclusive 🏳️‍🌈 They're starting a queer yoga class. And, there are about 20+ teachers so you can find your vibe.

Yogalution Yoga Studio is truly a life-changing space that has redefined what yoga means to me. From the moment you step through the doors, it feels like you've left the bustling city behind and entered a peaceful sanctuary. The energy here is so inviting that all the stress and noise of daily life just melt away. What makes this studio stand out is its deep focus on the spiritual side of yoga. Unlike other places that center solely on movement, Yogalution reminds you that yoga is a holistic practice. It’s about grounding, connecting, and growing—not just physically, but mentally and spiritually. This approach has been transformative for me. The community at Yogalution is absolutely incredible. Everyone—from the staff to the students—is warm, supportive, and inspiring. The teachers are patient, knowledgeable, and respectful, making every class a transformative experience. My favorite class is the 6AM Monday Morning Rise & Energize with Maria Espinoza. Her music is uplifting, her practice is challenging, and her guidance has been invaluable to my journey. You can truly feel the love and dedication she brings to her teaching—it’s absolutely contagious! Dharma has created something truly special here. The studio hosts so many amazing events and activities that foster connection and growth. One standout experience is Ed’s meditative sound baths—pure magic! It’s something everyone in Long Beach needs to try at least once. If you’re looking for a place to grow, heal, and connect, Yogalution Yoga Studio is it. It’s more than just a yoga studio; it’s a community and a sanctuary. I couldn’t recommend it more highly!

my home studio, the most beautiful spanish style building, stained glass windows, a courtyard with a fountain, and just so many beautiful details in the structure, furniture, decor - a beautiful altar, etc. You have to just step in there to feel its magic, apart from the physical beauty - it houses a variety of yoga classes, and healing modalities such as massage and acupuncture. There are so many cool offerings and workshops, it's honestly a rare and precious gem. Another favorite thing about the studio is that they have 75 and 90 minute classes. There are lots of great teachers, and although I haven't practiced with them all some of my favorites are: Dharma's tuesday night class (powerful vinyasa with philosophy, chanting and/or empowering words weaved in), Blakwatter (powerful invigorating practice with uplifting music), Melissa C (gentle and grounding meditative for when I need to slow down) and Ed (Bhakti infused slower, but still powerful movement with very thoughtful shares and adjustments).

What a gem! I started attending Yoga on the Bluff about 2-3 years ago and then gradually started attending more classes at the studio (YES, it's the same people running Yoga on the Bluff!). You'll find a wide range of "flavors" of classes from ultra-relaxing evening classes to sweaty, fully-charged morning classes. The teachers are a wonderful group of humans that are there to share their knowledge and love of yoga. Fully donation-based (minimum $7 donation/class) means you don't need to worry about keeping track of a membership and you also have fewer excuses to keep you from attending ;-) I never regret going to class, it's such a treat to have a space such as this in Long Beach.

Over the past 3 years I have experienced significant shifts in my life, in part due to the access that I have to this donation based studio. Dharma is doing real work and I am just grateful to be here to witness and take benefit from it. This is a beautiful space with amazing teachers who are building community. They offer so many beautiful wellness services and workshops that everyone could take advantage of. This is a gem! Please support and know that all are welcomed
