Ra Yoga Newport Beach

I love this studio. It’s small (2 practice rooms) but has all the necessities. All the staff and instructors I have interacted with are friendly and inviting. Management has made small improvements to the space over time but thankfully kept the small, local vibe (and reasonable prices!). There are some negative reviews here related to parking… it can be a challenge on weekend mornings due to the types of other businesses nearby (and for some reason the bank tows in its 50+ space lot despite not being open on weekends). I’ve never had an issue parking for weekday evening classes though.

I had the absolute worst experience I have ever had in my 600+ classes on ClassPass. I took my mom as a guest as well and we were right next to the door and 7 people slammed open the door more than 5 mins after class started finally at 11:40. ( not to mention no one even said sorry) after 7 head slams we had had enough of getting our head slammed and left the class only to be met with the front desk person being unapologetic and wouldn’t even give us two cards to email our complaint. I have been to ra over 10x and my fiancé is a member for 5 years and he is looking at cancelling his membership due to this.

I really love ra yoga and the instructors at the newport location - very encouraging in challenging your practice and ability, rather than intimidating. Great overall vibe.

I started doing yoga consistently after an injury slowed me down with weight lifting. This is the best yoga studios I've been able to find in the Orange County area after trying many. They offer beginners yoga to advanced (heated) as well as other strength-building classes for a variety of options. The front desk staff is great, always cheerful, happy to help, and honestly super funny. Absolutely zero attitudes which can be a deterrent with newcomers at other studios. The yoga instructors are amazing. They are super good about form to prevent injuries and super good with helping improve your practice. Lola, Laurie, Elizabeth, Sarah, MJ, Amber and all the other instructors are so good at what they do. It is great that there are several locations which is great if you are not always in the Newport area. Give Ra a shot if you are in the market for a new studio.

Such a fun yoga studio! They have so many classes I had never tried before and lots of different times convenient to my schedule. I love it!!!
