The House of Yogi

Wonderful studio and teachers! I have been practicing yoga for about 10 years, and since moving to OB/​Point Loma hadn’t found a nearby studio that I liked until now. My husband kept prompting me to try a studio close to home and I did elsewhere in OB about a year ago and it was too meditative/​ohm (ish). I prefer a more intense workout/​vinyasa flow, and Lauren really delivers that. I hope she gets more classes assigned to her :) Joel is good too! Love the music, the vibe, the flow… all was/​is good! I will continue here, thankful to have found a place closer to home that is equally as good as my old place!

The House of Yogi is a very cozy, welcoming yoga studio in Point Loma. Unfortunately, the location of the studio leaves a lot to be desired, and while I wish it didn’t affect my experience, it did, and I am hesitant to go back.
I took my first restorative yoga class with Jenn on a Sunday night; I believe the class started somewhere between 7 – 8:00pm, it was a later class. The studio is within a busy shopping plaza and overlooks the parking lot (however, there is shrubbery and some bushes covering the windows so you don’t feel completely exposed).
Restorative yoga is meant to be deeply relaxing and calming. Throughout at least half the duration of class, there were a couple of homeless men hanging out right outside the studio that were whistling, talking loudly, and even banging on the windows and shouting things at us during the class. It made me feel pretty uncomfortable. I don’t know if this was just an off night or if it’s a regular occurrence that happens here due to the location, but I definitely didn’t get the calming, relaxed experience I was looking for.
All of that aside, the studio was very clean and had a great feel to it. Jenn was also an amazingly warm teacher, and even asked us before the class started if there was any particular areas we wanted to focus on. When I mentioned a specific pose, I thought it was awesome that she ended up weaving it into the class sequence.
At some point, I may opt to try a morning class to see if the vibe is any different, but for now, I think I’ll go elsewhere for my late night restorative yoga fix!

I purchased the new student package and was nervous before arriving at the studio, especially after not practicing for two years.
Shaun was welcoming before class and throughout class provided positive feedback.
I planned on only attending sat/​sun classes as I live in Mira Mesa, but I’m going to sign up for a few classes throughout the week and make the drive– it’s worth it.

I have been to many yoga studios in San Diego and House of Yogi is definitely one of the best in my book! The lineup of teachers here is just absolutely incredible and every class I’ve taken has been a wonderful experience. The studio has a really energy to it with great natural light and just the right amount of heat to not be overwhelming. Despite it being in a big shopping center, it is simply wonderful as soon as you step in the door, and it’s great that there is so much parking! That is so rare.
All of the vinyasa classes I’ve taken have had a good flow to them… and the restorative class (which I’ve never seen at other studios) will have you leaving feeling totally zenned out… or «yoga drunk» as we called it. Highly recommend this place to everyone from beginners to advanced yogis!

I’m pretty new to yoga and have had trouble finding a studio that «feels» good. Many in the area seem too big, too small, too dark, too hot, etc. I’ve experienced some good classes and teachers, but haven’t found a studio that I would want to call home… until House of Yogi. It is conveniently located, has ample parking, and despite being in close proximity to a shopping center it feels like an oasis. It’s open and inviting studio is just the rights size, the floor to ceiling windows give way to beautiful tree views, and most importantly it just has that great intangible «vibe» that I have been looking for.
Again, I’m pretty new to yoga so I don’t feel comfortable commenting on the teachers, sequencing, etc… but I have enjoyed every class I have taken and LOVE this carefully thought out studio space.

The House of Yogi is awesome! Shaun Jenkins is a wonderful teacher who sprinkles in humor, anatomy, great music and a fantastic, well-​thought out flow. The space is beautiful — the trees outside the floor to ceiling windows made me feel like I was practicing in Hawaii. Great community of yogis practicing alongside me– really welcoming and nice. You’ve got to check out the House of Yogi for yourself. We needed a studio in this part of town! Now the search is over!

The House of Yogi is my new hidden jewel!!! The studio has awesome energy and beautiful natural lightening. The owner, Shaun, is warm and personable. He will greet you by your name at the door with a big welcoming smile. The instructors are very knowledgeable and caring. The classes range from fun and challenging to relaxing and restorative, plenty of variety for all yogis searching for growth! I love the lavender-​scented eye pillows for restorative yoga! I will definitely come back for more! One more bonus: easy parking!

This space is amazing with lots of natural light! Shaun is a gifted teacher with an incredible practice & plenty to offer students of all levels, I certainly recommend checking out any of his classes! Great studio, I’ll be going back :)

The House of Yogi feels like a second home. The studio offers a variety of classes whether you want to turn up the volume or turn it down. I’ve taken vinyasa and restorative classes, they are expertly taught with attention to technique and well-​being. It’s well located and parking is a snap — which is important for me after a long day.

San Diego has a ton of yoga studios, but none are quite like The House Yogi. This local gem offers a meditative, welcoming environment to grow your yoga practice. The instructors offer very descriptive cues to help yogis get into proper alignments in each posture. The class variety is fantastic whether you want to build fire or cool down this studio will have a class for you.
If you’ve never taken restorative yoga, do yourself a favor and take the deep stretch restore class. It’s like an organized nap. Seriously, they give you blankets and pillows and everything, you’ll walk out a new person. I love this place and you will too!

First time here, and I LOVED. I took the 7pm stretch restore class tonight with Jen. So nice, and helpful. No idea what I was doing with all the equipment but Jen was super helpful and seemed like she really cared. This class was a really nice change from the typical yoga classes I am use to. This class focused on breath, stretching, and fluidity in movement. Nice, spacious, clean space. I signed up for the $ 40 month unlimited for trial month– excited to try more classes!

Took Johnny’s class today… so yummy and he even sang to us… lovely!!! The space is inviting, there is a little retail area with great clothes and plants… simply divine all around! Shaun has done a great job!
