Services
Hatha Yoga
Hatha Yoga classes focus on foundational postures practiced at a slower pace to improve alignment, strength, and flexibility. Each session integrates breathing techniques and meditation to create balance and prepare the body for deeper practice. Ideal for all levels, these classes emphasize proper form and mindful movement.
Restorative Yoga
Restorative Yoga uses supported poses with props to promote deep relaxation and physical release. This practice helps reduce stress, improve sleep quality, and restore energy levels through gentle, sustained postures held for extended periods. Perfect for those seeking recovery or stress relief.
Functional Yoga
Functional Yoga combines traditional postures with mobility exercises targeting specific body regions. Designed to enhance movement patterns, this practice improves joint mobility, muscle strength, and everyday physical capabilities through purposeful, anatomically informed sequences.
Kundalini Yoga
Kundalini Yoga integrates dynamic movement, breathwork, and chanting to awaken spinal energy and expand consciousness. These classes focus on breaking physical and emotional blockages through rhythmic sequences that balance body, mind, and spirit while cultivating inner awareness.
Mindful Flow
Mindful Flow classes synchronize breath with movement through continuous posture transitions. This practice builds strength, flexibility, and mental focus while maintaining accessibility for various skill levels through modifiable sequences and alignment cues.

Upscale all inclusive hot yoga. You come out completely drenched with an amazing glow. Obviously it's not as intense(burn as much calories) as bootcamp, spin, barre, etc, but it is still a decent work out. It wouldn't help you loose weight, but will help you maintain it.

Amazing yoga teaching! I am so happy they moved online since Covid and allowed us to keep practicing safely and at home. If you are looking for individual teaching and feedback look no further. Radha teachers will learn your name, give you live feedback on zoom and tailor their classes to your need and interests. I have been practicing at Radha for years now and I am so grateful I can continue online.
If you are more of an in person person, they also offer park yoga. Radha has a lot of different teachers teaching different methods (yin, flow, restaurative, assana etc..) and I appreciated the diversity

OMG! I am fairly new to yoga and Radha Yoga L.A. has the most patient, kind, down to earth instructors. Lo Brown, Danielle Hamrick, John Flicker, Uma Behati, Eveny Sanchez, Max Villwock, Olive Ardizoni, Stephanie Palomino, Zoe Wirth! They all have their personalities but all have the above traits! During this Pandemic times, I find yoga to be relaxing, healing and rejuvenating. The people at Radha have been great esp. teaching yoga through Zoom classes! I don't know if I'll actually go to their studio because Zoom is so convenient! They are calm in the midst of this weirdness. I highly

I have been going to Radha for about 3 years now and I have never found a better yoga spot! The instructors are genuinely passionate about what they do, and the classes are small enough that they know you by name. I attend the yin and the vinyasa weekly and have to say this is a place that is doing everything right: affordable $10 a class drop ins, Venmo accepted, corrections and thoughtful music, and different styles each week (Minnelli and Julie - you rock!). For beginners to advanced yogi's, it's an oasis from the hustle and bustle of life in L.A. I recommend this over ANY other place

Amazing teacher! Knowledgeable and taught us how to align the body especially for helping with relieving any pressure in the hips while pregnant. Beautiful space with natural sunlight.
