Editorial Review for City Yoga – by Jennifer Schwartz
In Short
Co-owners Sue Elkind and Anthony Benenati opened City Yoga on the busy corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and Fairfax in 1999. Despite the chaos outside, the second-story practice room faces a quiet back alley. Focusing on vinyasa-based study, classes range from introductory to advanced. Instructors vary, but most will gently affirm basic poses and some will even strum Indian instruments to deepen meditation.

To all L.A. Yogi's- tired of McYoga and GymYoga and "i got trained at YogaFit over the weekend, now I am a yoga instructor" Yoga??? City Yoga is the real-deal. Highly trained staff. No dogma, no Kool-aid just real yoga that anyone can relate to. You will work harder than ever before and yet you will LEARN something! Modern day connection to this ancient practice. Anthony and Rebecca own it, take their classes. Period. By the way, it also happens to be the most beautiful studio in LA. Early birds??? The 6:30am class will move your soul.
Pros: teaching staff, yoga rooms, instruction-everything
Cons: that there's not more of them

I 'heart' City Yoga. I have been devoted to City Yoga for almost 7 years now and try and go as often as possible. Whether it's Tara's 6:30, Camilla's 9am or Sunday mornings with Anthony (who makes sure to update everyone on the latest baseball and basketball scores) every class is great. I am an incredibly clumsy girl, but for some reason when I am at City Yoga I can hang in a handstand forever and balance on one leg with my eyes closed for hours on end! The energy and feeling that Rebecca, Anthony and their awesome teachers and staff make City Yoga one of my favorite places to be! And thankfully the folks at City get the fact that while yoga is spiritual it can also be fun! So for a great workout, super people and that ever important calming energy - CITY YOGA is a must.
Pros: Best Yoga in LA
Cons: Classes can be packed
