Frequency Yoga

Very high quality environment and instruction. I’ll be 70 y.o. soon and do it to keep the Lyme Disease I struggled with for years at bay. I couldn’t be happier with everyone & everything about Frequency Yoga.

An excellent studio with great teachers who give outstanding instruction.

I have often utilized Unilocal,but never actually participated in the review process. So here goes my 1^st review. My definition of a 5 star business is that you leave feeling better than when you arrived. I ALWAYS feel better leaving Frequency yoga than when I arrived.
Something like 15 years ago I took my first ever yoga class at this location. I recently moved back to SR & began taking class here again this week. Ever since the current owner bought this studio, it seems to continuously get better… the progress it has made over the years is amazing!
The basics that I appreciate even more now after practicing at most SF bikram studios. Frequency Yoga is the best bikram studio for me because it’s VERY CLEAN, HAS BEST HEATING SYSTEM, HAS NICE SHOWERS, NICE CHANGING AREA, COOL NEW H2O STATION, LARGE STUDIO, NOW TWO LARGE STUDIOS, A BUNCH OF CLASS TIMES TO CHOSE FROM & THE FLOOR!!! This may seem odd if you have never done bikram, but if you choose another studio you will find out the hard way. Frequency has the best floor by a long reach.
Of course, the INSTRUCTORS ARE THE BEST. Over the years, the owner has always had the best instructors like Faye. I took class taught by JULIE & IVO this week… take their class they are REALLY GOOD! And Nick at front desk is very helpful, good guy. This is a GREAT LOCAL BUSINESS THAT I’M GRATEFUL TO SUPPORT!
Give it a try… you’ll feel better for it!

Frequency yoga, formerly known as Bikram Yoga San Rafael and Power Yoga San Rafael, apart from it’s location, offers similar services in terms of yoga and fitness when compared to other local yoga studios. As a patron for nearly a decade now, the collection of teachers has ranged from truly amazing, to a lackluster group of recent Bikram College ”grads”.
Management is available, but sometimes ill informed, Though I was deeply swayed by a former owner’s personal story with yoga, I’m not so sure I would buy into the sales pitch today…
Good location. Ok prices. Best feature is location and slight variety of classes. But perhaps yoga studio should just stick to .yoga?

I’m new to yoga and I love this place! The staff is super friendly and the prices are reasonable for the area. They make all levels welcome in all the classes I’ve tried and the instructors are willing to help guide less experienced students. I’ve been doing mostly power yoga and love it, but the fast pace can make it difficult to keep up (especially if you’re out of shape like me). The instructors and other students have been super welcoming and encouraging, while also letting me know everyone started at the beginning and not to push too hard. Great atmosphere — highly recommended!

I’m not sure where I would be now if I didn’t start yoga here. I came here sick and out of shape and it changed my life. The first classes were tough and many still are, but If you stick with it you’ll see the benefits quickly.
There are a variety of classes for different styles, wonderful teachers, and an accepting and friendly studio setting.

This is a review for Brittany Lamb, who taught a power yoga class I took at Frequency. She has a great teaching style that helped me push my boundaries, while feeling I wasn’t being rushed through breaths and postures. As someone with sensitive knees and back, I also noticed she gave really sensitive adjustments and guidance for avoiding injuries. She really seems to know her stuff. I wish I lived in San Rafael so I could come to her classes more often!

I have going to Frequency Yoga for the last eight years. It is a home studio for me and I enjoyed all the variety of classes that is being offered

I have been going to this studio for years. Always a clean pleasant experience. Forever my favorite in Marin.

Frequency Yoga is my near daily detox, exercise, meditation, happy place. I have a fairly high stress position, so the opportunity to go to a clean, inviting space to do Bikram, TRX and vinyasa-​based Power Yoga. The teachers are great and management has been spending to improve the facilities, so that’s always reassuring. Iused to take 4 – 5 Advil a day for back pain, but almost never have to pop a pill anymore as I work it out on my mat.

I love Bikram and I love this place!

Long time, loyal customer of over 12 years to this great studio. Very friendly, experienced instructors. Great schedule offering flexibility. Would recommend to anyone with a passion for yoga.

Yoga instructors are extremely helpful and professional. Very patient and kind to new members and rooms even have windows.
I do wish their parking lot was bigger, bulgur other than that NO complaints. A very nice, friendly and clean facility. I highly recommend them!

Frequency brings the heat — and not just b/​c they are home to Bikram and hot yoga — but because they teach genuinely challenging, well-​paced classes that will have you sun-​salutationing with delight.
The studio offers classic Bikram (90min, standard 26 postures, oven temp set to 105F), an abbreviated Bik (60min), power yoga (60 or 75min, vinyasa flow), TRX classes, and something called Y90 (myofascial release and yin yoga… which sounds absolutely terrifying but I’m sure that my energetic blocks could use a clearing or whatevs, so maybe next time I’m in the hood?). Studio is clean but not glamorous, though they have showers, I’d plan to rinse off at home unless your panties are in a real twist to get somewhere.
Instructors knowledgeable, offering appropriate and appreciated corrections — if it’s in your nature to get sups personal with your guru of choice, I’m sure that’d be fine, but it’s also okay to just be a rando who shows up at class and isn’t part of the scene — largely b/​c there is no FY cult to speak of that I observed. Crowd was unpretentious, most ppl just locked in and did their own thing, mix of men and women of varying fitness levels — less mean mommies in mountain pose — more ppl just looking to hit a little half-​moon or happy baby.
Drop in rate is $ 20ish, 30 days unlimited for $ 30 (first timers), otherwise, 10 classes for a buck fifty, 20 for $ 270, 40 for $ 560 — and there are other monthly options and student discounts available. If you’re looking to kick your own tush while getting a bit zen, FY is a banging place to do so.

I love the insanity of Bikrham yoga, and felt like it was a great workout for me, physically, emotionally, and psychologically. The studio itself is great; however, several of the instructors unfortunately, were not as good. I am the kind of person that values feedback. The last thing I want is to do a particular pose wrong and risk hurting myself. I let this be known several times to some of the instructors. A couple were receptive, most were not. What is worse, is the favoritism I felt that happened at some of the classes I went to. Some of those very same instructors who would not give feedback to people like me who aren’t masters, would give positive feedback and help better the postures of those who were advanced yogis.
In any case, if you are fine with the possibility of not receiving much feedback, then this place is probably for you. However, if you’re like me and value the feedback necessary to improve your practice, I’d recommend taking classes with Dan and Andrea. If they are no longer there, you may benefit going elsewhere.

Frequency Yoga has a very supportive and skilled staff with a wide selection of classes. Most of the Bikram instructors give a lot of individual guidance, and the spaces are large, sleek and clean. My only small complaint is that the Bikram room smells sweatier than other studios I’ve been to due to its carpet-​like floor. But I’ve gotten used to it.

Just beware, the fees posted on the website are «internet only» fees, so if you go in, and expect the same rates at the front desk, you will be surprised, disappointed. They state that there is a 10% discount if you renew before your last class, but that is only applicable at the front desk, so you will be paying a higher rate even that way, then stated on the website. Kind of slimy if you ask me.

Arjay is a great fearless leader at this Power Yoga School…
This is beautiful Yoga School… Thankyou!

I’ve been going to Power Yoga San Rafael since moving two blocks away about a year ago. This studio is hands down my favorite aspect of my neighborhood. Every teacher I’ve practiced with offers wisdom and experience, incorporating various elements of yoga beyond simply the asanas. Arjay, Ed, Araceli, and Amber are each phenomenal teacher in their own right. Each teacher brings a slightly different focus and pace to their class that never is the same twice.
I love this studio because the studio does not care about «selling» anything besides great classes, and because it’s teachers genuinely give all their focus to students every single class. This studio is THE BEST in Marin — try it out!

I really enjoyed my class here last night. It was my first Power Yoga class and it was nice to mix up the Bikram classes (next door) with the Power Yoga class.
I took advantage of the 30 day special they were offering, and I have enjoyed unlimited classes this past month at both the Bikram and Power studio (same building, different rooms). They have a nice lil partnership going on here.
I would recommend for first timers bringing your own: Towel, mat, change of clothes (preferrably warm), bottle of H20, hair tie and sandals or flip flops.
The Power yoga is a little more fast paced than the Bikram and slightly less warm, but still warm enough to reap all the benefits of loosening up those stiff muscles and relaxing away any tension the day might have you with.
I would much, much rather hang out here and get my Yoga on than be stuck in 6’o clock traffic hell. so it is pretty much a no-​brainer for me. I am lovin this studio and the teachers have all been fantastic so far!
