Testimonials
I LOVE the breathing room. I wish Aviva would just let me move in and live there. The instructors are phenomenal and the energy of the space is magical. I thought yoga wasn't for me but I am so in love with yoga now. I've learned so much and my body is feeling good and I can move in ways I haven't been able to in years. I'm more kind to myself and I take time to take time out to be present with me to ensure my needs are met due to the instructions received during classes. The breathing room has a way of attracting the right people to the space for anyone to feel safe, supported and seen.
Aviva doesn't know this but the breathing room saved my life. I'm grateful! Thank you! I have spent time here not only doing yoga and other types of classes, but I have supported people I don't know through hard times. I have received support from people I don't know while going through a rough time. I have hugged, laughed and cried with people that I've never met. I have encouraged and been encouraged in this space. The breathing room feels like home for me. If you feel like you need some of the experiences I've had, the breathing room is where to get it. You'll probably see me there with the biggest smile of excitement.
I really love this yoga studio in Alameda! The space is super cute and clean, and the classes are really affordable compared to others I've visited around the Bay Area.
I always leave class feeling both relaxed and accomplished with my practice. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a local yoga studio!
Breathing Room is a gem! The instructors are very knowledgeable and make everyone feel welcome, whether you’re new to yoga or experienced. The atmosphere is calming, and I’ve noticed improvements in both my physical and mental well-being since joining. It’s more than just a yoga studio—it’s a wonderful community. Highly recommend!
Best Yoga Studio by far! I sort of abandoned years of practice when everything shut down in 2020. And then I “heard” the voice calling me back. Found this studio and have been going pretty much every other day for the last two+ months.
I have not tried all the styles or all the classes yet - not enough free time. My favorite sessions are Monday night, Wednesday night, Saturday early morning, and Sunday night. And, of course, Friday nights’ special workshops.
The studio has all the props you may ever need. Bring your own mat, and enjoy workouts and sound baths!
Breathing Room is literally a breath of fresh air. The space is warm, inviting, full of plants - it’s just beautiful. The teachers are authentic and unique and I can truly feel that they enjoy what they do. I have been practicing for many years, but I struggle with injuries and chronic pain. I feel safe showing up no matter how I feel, because there are plenty of props provided and modifications offered. I also feel comfortable inviting friends of all levels, and everyone I’ve brought has loved it. Lastly, it is women owned, inclusive, and truly supports the community and other local businesses- what’s not to love?!?
