I’m probably the most inflexible person to step foot into Monica’s Hard Yoga. Yet I wish I could attend everyday. She has childcare which is a huge plus and Berta is very caring towards my kids. I feel comfortable leaving them for over an hour while my tush is being kicked… Oh and my mind relaxed at the same time. Figure that out!

Finding this place was the best thing ever! Monica is awesome as are all of the other instructors. The studio is absolutely gorgeous and the décor is truly unique and amazing. They offer such a wide variety of classes that there is something for everyone. I have a health condition that makes it so I sometimes need a gentler class and this place provides that easily. Whether your looking to push yourself to the next level or fitness or looking to heal your body, this is the place to make it happen. I am honored to practice here and absolutely love it. I highly recommend this place to all my friends. There is no better yoga studio around.

By far, the BEST yoga in town! I’ve practiced yoga all over the country and over seas, including India. Through my practice and teacher training, I consider myself a yogi and a good judge of yoga. This is my favorite place to get my yoga on! Hard Yoga is truly versatile. With vinyasa, ashtanga yin, TRX, barre and aerial yoga, you can find the class that best fits your current mood and needs. I love Hard Yoga and so will you!

I am so glad that I stepped out of my comfort zone and walked into Hard Yoga. Monica and all of the instructors truly care about their students health and journey. It’s become a healing place for my mind, body and soul. Egos are left outside and everyone focuses on love and energy. I really can’t say enough about how this studio has changed me, inside and out. If you’re looking for a judgement free, loving environment then you should try Hard Yoga. It’s my new home away from home.

Monica’s Hard Yoga is the best place to strengthen and heal your body and soul. This is where yoga is accessible to all skill levels– seasoned yogis are challenged, newbies are gently introduced to the ancient practice and variety of classes offered is amazing.

I was in from Chicago & wanted to do a drop in yoga class. It is pretty rare where I’m from to come across guided ashtanga primary series classes, so I was super excited to find Carmela’s Sat. am class. Carmela was very welcoming, knowledgable & had a down to earth approach to her teaching style. She wasn’t as hard core as many ashtanga yogis tend to be, which I found to be refreshing. She was able to lead class for practitioners at all levels & she gave great hands on adjustments. If you are curious about ashtanga yoga, I think this is a great class for someone new to what can be an intimidating practice in the beginning, as well as for those who know the series & want to take a guided class lead by a compassionate yogi.

Hands down the BEST yoga studio I have EVER had the pleasure of visiting. The practice itself is professional, aligned with authentic technique, and spiritually grounded. Monica is an amazing human being, and the studio is gorgeous. There are plenty of classes throughout the day, so there’s bound to be something to fit your schedule. The studio’s signature«FIT» class combines traditional yoga poses with light weights and strength moves, and is sincerely a good work out. After using my one-month for $ 40 deal, I signed up for a year in advance. It’s that good. Warning: The classes tend to go(up to 30 minutes) longer than listed, so if you have a tight schedule, make sure to try and come for a class in the evening or on the weekend, when you can stand to have an end-time that is a little looser.

There was a time I used to do yoga including hot yoga 2 to 3 times a week. I relocated to CA6. months ago and been thi king about going back to it. I have a bad back problem and arthritis on my toes, which makes it hard for me to bend them, but the stretching does helps. I always can go for the alternative movements. Looking forward to go back and maybe becoming active again. The place is cute and clean, Monica was welcoming and made me feel comfortable, best year I can walk from home which is always a plus.

I wanted to try a new workout, but I was admittedly intimidated to try yoga as I didn’t think it would be for me or my body type. I feel so fortunate to have mustered up the courage to walk in the door and give it a try. Monica’s knowledge and commitment to fitness, health, & overall wellbeing is exceptional. The classes are always challenging, never mundane, and the results speak for themself. Perhaps even more surprising than the physical impact yoga has made, is the mental strength and spiritual growth that has accompanied my journey this past year. «When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.» I am truly grateful for Monica and the positive impact she has made in my life. As if Monica isn’t enough, the other instructors are also amazing, the studio is beautiful, & while I practice yoga, my daughter is in great hands with Bertha:)

Courtney’s Barre class is by far the best barre I’ve ever taken– hands down! Such focus on detail and form with a lighthearted, playful approach and attitude. Can’t wait to take more with her!

I adore this yoga studio. Having had no previous experience, my husband and I joined here in January 2015 and have enjoyed taking part in the number of different classes on a regular basis. The new studio is perfectly located, with lots of parking available. The studio is large and clean with a great ambiance. The 2 rooms are perfect for the many different classes on offer with all the teachers being extremely friendly, passionate and knowledgeable about their roles as instructors. I would highly recommend this studio.
