Purple Yoga

The ONLY way you can get me up at 6am is for purple yoga! I had little to no experience with yoga before coming here. I signed up for the 2 week trial. It was available for both purple yoga and purple pedal! Love both! I debated continuing bc prices are so expensive for a monthly package but by the end of my 14 day trial I couldn’t let it go! (And the 20% off discount with my intro package was more of an incentive)! Must try, guaranteed love!

I was told by a friend that I needed to take advantage of the current promotion. So of course I want to get in as many days as possible. I started off this AM at Pedal with I cycle class led by Jennifer H. I arrived to find an iPad touch screen to sign in. Jennifer welcomed me with a pair of cycling shoes to make my experience a little more comfortable. Once in the class she gave me further instruction about the setup of my bike and then there was no turning back. My feet were locked and loaded and boy did she push my already sore legs. The class was upbeat, the music was great, and she even added in a little upper body workout!
After I headed over to Yoga (Red) which I have been dying to try out! I hear so much about «hot yoga» but have never had the gall to do it because I didn’t want to be the student passing out before the whole class! Lol. I was greeted at the front desk and signed in. Then I realized I forgot my yoga mat. The receptionist graciously provided me with a mat and towel since it was my first visit. I had Beckky, who was subbing for the regular teacher, but she is definitely well versed in her craft. I enjoyed it so much. I left completely drenched and looking forward to my next class. My initial experience was great! I’m looking forward to more classes both at Pedal and Yoga.

Loved my experience here. I was running late and jumped into a 5 o’clock Blue class with Angie Su. Luckily she was on the phone with a client so I wasn’t too late when I got in. Angie’s class was great and this one in particular focused on the spine and elongating it and stretching it out. I loved that it was challenging but gave us more time to really find the poses and make sure we were accessing the right parts of our bodies to get the maximum effect. Afterwards I used the shower facilities and was amazed at how big and clean the showers were and could tell the water was definitely filtered and not hard. Also, the lockers have a lock on them so no need to bring a lock from home, just a 4 digit code to program and remember.
Parking at this studio was easy to find both on the street and in the lot next door. I LOVE this location and would stop by more often if I can.

Alex, Jennifer, Asako, Cydni. Jenna & all the instructors & front office staff are wonderful. No matter what class you take, it is all about how «you» feel, think and experience. Practice is amazing and rejuvenates my mind, body connection. Please try our studio! It’s a blessing in my life.

Purple Yoga is a Fullerton gem! The facilities are always clean. After every class the instructors clean the floors. This is so important because of the hot yoga classes. The teachers are knowledgable and help you along the way. The vibe is opening and welcoming. Not being a yogini or yoga regular it can feel like you’re out of place, but Purple Yoga makes you feel like part of the community. You can’t beat the $ 29 two week unlimited class offer. You will get hooked. Love Purple Yoga for helping me find my yoga mojo: D

Like many people who are part of the Purple Yoga community I have the auto-​pay monthly plan which goes from $ 125 for just yoga that gives you access to Long Beach, Fullerton, and Tustin studios.
The Fullerton Studio has both a moon room (room temperature) and sun room (hot temperature). Blue is a room temperature yoga and Red is a hot yoga.
I take the classes with a few teachers. Alex and Allison are very technical meaning that they will focus on specific postures and your muscle alignment. Monica is a trained yoga therapist and her classes are very healing. Randee offers a very supportive restorative class.
If you are interested in trying out classes here I would recommend getting the $ 29 two week trial. During this try a variety of teachers, classes and locations.
Yoga at a studio is very different from a 24 hour fitness. I highly recommend this place and get started today. Yoga is for everyone and all body types. The yoga instructors can assist if you have injuries or special limitations.

I don’t think I could ever rave so much about this new place. This new bldg. was done up so well and lived up to my expectations. The individual bathroom was so modern and they have automated lockers. They have private showers with privacy doors. And they kept the vanity area where there’s complimentary feminine pads and hair dryers and trash bags. The staff were genuinely friendly and knowledgeable about different types of yogas classes. Ive been taking on their community classes after my promotion package expired. I still come here even though its ways from my house. Its worth it, I left the class mentally and physically empowered.

I came here after working a job in the neighborhood. What am INCREDIBLE experience! Friendly, nice, GREAT yoga, not too much talking or awful pop music blasting.
Got an amazing workout, not some over-​the-​top-​know-​it-​all dude who just wants to touch half-​naked women, but a REAL YOGI GENTLEMAN who led 50+ of us through a fantastic flow of poses. I left feeling like a million bucks. Love this place, it is cute, clean, and legit. I only wish they existed in LA or San Diego!

This place is the only real quality yoga studio that I’ve found in the Anaheim/​Fullerton area. I like it, it gives a good workout. I’m not totally sold/​obsessed with it though. I like CPY and the long beach purple yoga better than this studio. I’ve tried various teachers here and I still have yet to be totally blown away. I love it for what it is, a simple and pretty good workout. Tip: parking at night totally sucks.

I have taken 3 different classes here, with a different instructor each time & a different class type. Oddly enough the class I felt gave me the most complete experience both physically & mentally was the blue (beginner) class I attended last night with Randee! She lead class smoothly and the only difference that made it «beginner» was that she described what positions our body should be in each pose, while gently giving corrections as she walked around. Usually when I take a beginner class I find the constant explanations and interruptions very distracting. But Randee allowed me to grow in my yoga knowledge and for the first time I left a yoga class mentally serene and smiling along with a workout. All classes here have been good to great, but I Randee’s method of teaching is more my personal style.
The space is clean, simple & not intimidating for newbies to yoga. Everyone is very friendly and happy to answer any questions. The atmosphere is a lot less competitive than say yogaworks. Parking is an issue, but that is due to the many bars/​restaurants in the surrounding areas so if your like me & taking classes at night, come early to ensure parking.
Love their app!

I’m a newbie to yoga. I got a bit of a late start to my new year’s resolution and signed up for the introductory 2 week special for $ 29 (unlimited yoga and pedal classes for 2 weeks). I’m so happy I made this «investment»!
All instructors are so friendly and welcoming. I’m still struggling a bit becomes I’m new to yoga, but there’s never any shame. All the instructors are very helpful and patient, and always make you feel like you’re doing an awesome job even if you’re all over the place (of course, they’ll come by and help your poses).
The Purple Yoga app is great – I think I like it better than the website. It’s so easy to sign up (and cancel) for classes.
Towels and mats can be rented for $ 3. A towel is absolutely necessary – you’ll be dripping in sweat after any of the red or green classes in the hotter room. I like those classes better because they’re in a larger room with mirrors.
The bathrooms are a bit small but they’re equipped with some lockers and showers. It can get really crowded after class. Just a warning, Mondays at 10:30 are the busiest, at least to me, so get to class at least 10 minutes early to grab a good spot.
I also tried the pedal classes, which are fun but super intense; I literally puked after one class because I’m so out of shape! If it’s your first time, it’s best to get there early and ask for help getting set up on your bicycle.

I’ve had quite a few yoga instructors in my time and I would say Sean is one of the best I’ve had. He brings in the spiritual aspect along with the physical, which are necessary for the full experience. He always has a touching speech, throws in a few jokes, and will carefully guide each student on their path. Bravo!

I had never done Yoga before walking into Purple Yoga about nine months ago and since have become a total convert and attend 2 – 3 classes per week. I signed up for the $ 100/​month unlimited classes in June and I think it is a great value and with so classes at all hours, it fits my schedule very nicely.
The staff is wonderful and the facility is very clean and modern. I have taken classes from almost all of the instructors and they are first rate and some of the nicest people you will ever meet. The classes are never more than 10 people and very personal. This is best thing I have done for body and my mind in a long, long time. Beats the heck out of boot camp for sure!

Ok, I’ve never been around so many genuinely nice people. I’m so happy that I got a membership here!
I’ve taken classes with Joe, Bob, Alex, Randee, Molly, and Cosette. All of them have been incredibly nice and helpful. All of their methods are different so never expect the same routine even if you are taking the same classes again and again.
I’ve taken the blue, green, and red classes. The blue class is in the room that’s about 78 degrees. Whereas the red and green classes are in the hot room. I think I’ve come to prefer the hot yoga classes. If it’s your first time going to a hot class– just remember to drink a lot of water beforehand. Because you’ll be sweating a looooooooot.
There are free lockers (and they’re big) so that you can store your gym bag or whatever else you need. Also– there are cubbies inside and outside of the classrooms. Be sure to take off your shoes and put them in the outside cubbies before coming into class.
They also have bathrooms and showers– all very clean.
Try out the two week trial package and see how you like it! Even if you’re a beginner, like I am, you won’t feel left out. Everyone has their own pace and the instructors know that– so you’ll never feel tense or that you’re not doing the same thing as others.

I took Danny’s class and it was awesome! Definitely would recommend it to everyone. It’s strong, challenging, informative, and helpful! GO TAKE HIS CLASS!

During their open house I met the owner (middle aged white male)… He was just strait up rude and had a nasty attitude when I asked about pricing, he gave me a vibe that he thought he was better than everyone else. -.-«…
I think the best instructor here is Alex he’s so kind and full of energy :) so they deserve one star for that. One of the Caucasian lady (not trying to be racist I just don’t know her name, she was middle aged) was really rude to me when I just wanted to buy water. I canceled my membership within a month but I had to pay for two since it’s a minimum requirement. *sigh* what a waste of money.
I’d avoid this place at all costs. I Wish there was a Yogaworks or A Core Power Yoga around Fullerton. They’d blow purple yoga out of the water. Zzzz

I love coming to hot yoga classes here, especially after the newer, bigger studio opened up because they have more classes throughout the day.
Purple Yoga has quite a few instructors. I have had class with about 7 different instructors and I have to agree with many of the other Unilocal reviewers that Alex is probably the best. He spends much of the class helping struggling students and giving modifications. I also really enjoy taking Jennifer’s classes as well. I definitely have my favorite instructors, but everyone I have had has been great.
Picking up yoga regularly can be an expensive endeavor since each class is about $ 20 at most studios, but Purple Yoga offers $ 10 Community classes in conjunction with their regularly priced classes, which really makes the practice of yoga more accessible to people.
There is also a variety of classes to choose from. Their website has a list of classes along with the class descriptions. My favorite are the hot yoga classes! You will really get a good sweat going, so be sure to bring a large yoga towel for your mat and a bottle of water. Speaking of sweat, despite the instructors mopping up the sweaty floor after every class, it does have a bit of a smell (think about 30 sweaty people exhaling their hot breath and sweating like beasts in an enclosed heated room), but your nose will adjust to after a minute or two.
Why 4 stars instead of 5? The little things. Like any fitness facility, the availability of cold, refreshing beverages like bottled iced tea, komboucha, coconut water, etc. would be great. They have a water fountain for refilling your bottle, but I often forget that at home and need to grab something to drink on the fly. Another thing that would have made this a 5 star studio for me is the use of light therapy or aromatherapy during the classes (eucalyptus oil or lemon oil are always nice to have in the humidifier). That would serve the dual purpose of masking some of the sweat smell and invigorating the olfactory senses. Lastly, I wish they had an extra shower stall in the women’s locker room. There are, I believe, only two showers, so it is always a mad rush to the shower if you plan on taking one after hot yoga.

After completing my Intro package, which is 2 weeks of unlimited classes for your first two weeks, I wanted to become a member right away! The classes were amazing, the staff and instructors were kind, and the new facility was clean and welcoming. I attended a few classes before they moved to their new location, which was down the street, and I can defintely attest to them making a huge improvment in all aspects. The two rooms that they use are scheduled nicely with a plethora of classes provided, and their instructors rotate rooms as well. Although their packages are a bit on the pricey end they do offer student discount packages, which I am considering to get closer to my zen!
Info you should know:
–The Intro package costs $ 30 but if you purchase the deal on Unilocal it’s only $ 15
–There is cubby space for your personal items to be stored in front of the rooms
–There are showers and lockers in the bathrooms
–They DON’T have yoga mat rentals so bring your own
–They DO have towel rentals for $ 1
–Bring a bottle of water with you or purchase one there
–Fav Instructors: Alex Roberts, Alison Harris, JT Maiers, Paula Larson

Purple Yoga will forever have my heart. It is the best yoga studio. Period. The best teachers. The best facilities. The best students. The best. Just go. Right now.

I really enjoyed my time and experience at purple yoga. Their space is clean and pleasant to be in. They also provide cubbies for you to place your items before each class. I would recommend bringing your own yoga mat along with a cold water bottle. I tried each level of class and each one was a soothing practice. Hot yoga was one of my favorites! Instructors are also great. If you’re not sure on purchasing the full price membership they offer good deals at times, about $ 30 for 2 week. Try it out you’ll enjoy it!

Never done hot yoga before but they made my experience a pleasant one.
The facility is very appealing and clean.
The teachers and students are all very friendly.
They offer so many types of classes as well

I’ve been coming to purple yoga for about a week and I can honestly say that I will never try yoga anywhere else, the prices are reasonable and the instructors are all very professional, helpful and nice. I love coming here, I always feel so great being there after a stressful day at work and afterwards. I love the red classes they offer those are my favorite.
I recommend purple yoga to all my friends and family.
P.S the new location is beautiful.

I have been practicing here since Jan 2015 and I can not say enough good things about this place. Since they have opened the new studio, they have twice as many classes available and also more varieties of classes. Yin and Restorative as well as Gentle Flow and Blue classes which are all done in the «Moon Room» (under 78 degrees) They still offer the Red & Green classes in the «Sun Room» which is HOT.
Whatever your preference they have it. They have such qualified, mindful and caring instructors.
I have also been on a retreat to Ojai with Alex and am signed up for Mexico with him as well this year. A great way to get off the grid and reconnect with yourself. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to practice.
The only problem I have encountered is the parking situation in the evening. You just need to give yourself a bit more time before class to find a space.

I have been coming to purple yoga on and off for a good two years. My favorite teachers change as my practice grows because they are all truly incredible. I am finally deciding to write my review based off of my first experience with Shidoni, whom I’ve heard Alex and other instructors speak very highly of in the past. Not only did I get my butt kicked (which was my intent) but I was reminded of a peace I have been chasing after for some time. I was spiritually and emotionally healed during our last savasana that tears actually began running down my eyes! (in part i was comforted that they were masked by my sweat!.. and no. im not pmsing.) I have never even known I could be so at peace and spiritually awake for a yoga class and I remember being SO thankful for Shidoni’s being and purpose there. This place is great. Great SMART instructors that know what they are doing (you should not be afraid of injuries, especially if you are willing to listen to your body), and a clean, welcome environment.
Its so funny that something you do over and over can be made completely new. I hope to carry that with me everywhere.
incredibly grateful. Thank you Shidoni.

I like the new Purple Yoga space. It’s pretty similar to the old one across the parking lot, but instead of having one big practice room, they now have two smaller ones allowing for more classes and workshops going on simultaneously. The old space has been converted into a spin studio called Purple Pedal. I’m excited to try it as I think Fullerton has been in need of spin classes outside of 24 Hour Fitness.
The lobby is contemporary and they have cubbies for your shoes and pillows and benches to sit on while you wait. If you’re in the shopping mood, they have a variety of clothes (mostly for women), props and more for purchase.
All of the instructors are great, but I tend to take more of Alex Roberts’ class whenever I can. Not only are his sequences awesome, his cues and adjustments are fantastic. He offers a variety of arm balancing workshops and advanced sequencing classes throughout the year that I’m going to have to jump on.
Like the other studio, the locker rooms are clean and they offer showers for after class. Just make sure you bring your own towel, but if you forget, they have some that you can rent as well. They provide body wash, shampoo and conditioner, but I wish they would label them so you don’t get confused on which is which.
Make sure to sign up for their e-​mail newsletters as they tend to offer specials from time to time. If you’re not into buying packages, their Community Classes are under $ 10 and you get a full class. Just watch the color level as it indicates the heat level and how hard the class is going to be.
Hot yoga was never really my thing until a few years ago when I started coming here. All of the classes I’ve had a chance to take have been great and the instructors encourage you to go at your own pace and to rest when you need to. If it’s your first time taking on the heat, I’d recommend coming here as you’ll feel supported and nobody will ever push you beyond your limits!
Because it’s in Fullerton, there is plenty of parking, but if you’re taking a class on a Friday night, be prepared to circle the lots for a spot. My suggestion is to find street parking off of Commonwealth and take a short walk to the studio. Much easier than stalking someone for their space and stressing out about being late to class.

I’m a new yogi here, I’m currently on their introductory package for $ 20 which is 2 weeks of unlimited classes. As far as the studio, it’s always clean and fair size. Plus all the instructors I’ve had so far are super friendly and willing to help each student. The only downside is the parking. If you have a class at 6pm or later, expect to drive around in circles until there is an open spot. I highly recommend arriving 20 minutes before class so you have enough time to find a parking spot. Other than that, it’s definitely the best yoga studio I’ve been to.

I started attending the community sessions that Purple Yoga offered when I was an undergrad in college to get the feel for the studio. After one class, I was hooked! I fell in love with the downtown location and made it my routine to show up to evening classes. The studio really offered a range of different yoga levels and start times, which made it convenient for me and my hectic schedule. I Immediately noticed how the instructors were knowledgeable and encouraging and did not hesitate to help me improve my posture.
Now that I live in San Diego, I really miss this place. I have yet to find a yoga studio that measures up to Purple Yoga and it’s been a few years. If you’re lucky enough to live near a PY location, I highly recommend visiting the studio. I only wish that PY would come to San Diego.

Just went to their new location for the first time!
I am such a fan of their $ 9 community classes and have come back on multiple occasions to try out the different classes they offer. Check their schedule online as they offer at least 4 a day! Red seems to be my favorite but all the teachers have been great thus far.
Things to bring:
–yoga mat (I believe you can rent one for a fee)
–towel (this you can rent too I think)
–water
They do also offer showers if you need to go somewhere right after and cubbies for your personal belongings. No worries it’s safe as I’ve had no problems with anyone taking my things. The front room smells kinda funky. almost kitty litter like but I attribute this to the fact that it’s new. The new yoga room is bigger and really nice with windows that give you a glimpse of the weather outside. Be ready to sweat and enjoy!
