Editorial Review for Yoga Works - Center for Yoga on Larchmont – by Shivon V. Tuoni
In Short
Founded in 1967, Center for Yoga was the first studio in Los Angeles to offer different hatha yoga traditions, including ashtanga, anusara, kundalini, Iyengar and viniyoga. This welcoming and attitude-free school in Larchmont Village houses three different classrooms that accommodate more than 70 classes each week. The calming effects of wood floors and natural lighting almost override the whir of traffic outside.

First Yoga Journal, now Yoga Works. The next in line of yoga sell-outs. Once the beacon of yoga in Santa Monica, owned by actual yogi's Mati and Chuck. Now is the 24 Hour Fitness of yoga studios. This is yoga-lite! Thank you corporate America for tainting yet another beautiful thing.
Pros: a class every 30 minutes-cause yoga knows you want it NOW!
Cons: nothing, if you like vanilla.

Ever since they changed their prices, the classes have become waaaay too crowded. It's hard not to whack the person next to you during sun salutations. Plus, Yoga Works changed the beginning/advanced ranking of classes and they no longer discourage beginners from attending advanced classes. As a result, teachers have to spend far too much time explaining the basics to newcomers in what used to be very advanced classes. The new management seems more interested in herding 'em in than in creating a quality yoga experience.
Pros: Good teachers
Cons: Crowded, Crowded, Crowded
