Ra Yoga | Long Beach

"Unfortunately, even before attending a class I had the worst experiences with the front desk. First off, THEY NEVER ANSWER THEIR CALLS! I had weeks trying to get in touch with someone so I can go ahead and schedule my class; when I finally got someone on the phone, they left me on hold for 30 minutes. I decided to drive over and let them know I was still on the phone waiting for the past 30 minutes, the receptionist continued question if I was sure I was left on hold, I showed her the phone record and the active phone call. Today, I attended my first class, the lack of space in the room didn’t bother me too much, however, the MALE RECEPTIONIST AT 6:30am who greeted me WAS EXTREMELY RUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He decided to give me a so-called tour of the place and when I asked if I needed weights for the specific class I was taking, he said “I thought I made it clear, and obvious when I gave you the tour that you needed them.” He gave me a 20 sec tour and expected me to take notes on everything I needed. I have a lot of girl friends and sisters who asked me today about my experience and unfortunately, to all I did not and will not recommend this place."

"Some of the members bit low class blocking handicapped parking spots while doing yoga for over 1 hour. Some how does not go together :-( Wish LBX would check once a while!"

"I love my RA yoga family. I’ve taken most of all the regular teachers and they’re all great and their own beautiful way! I’ve been at this studio for about two years and have tried other places, but nothing compares to the welcoming family like environment I feel at this studio. I am challenged to build mental and physical strength in every class. There’s always a class to suit my needs for how I feel that day physically and mentally. Some of my favorite instructors are Karen, Bobby, Marisa, Bridge, Christine, Rebecca, Aubrey, Corey, and Jill. The front desk staff make it that much more home like because they’re friendly, personable, and very helpful. Shout out to Leslie, Alisha, Jonah, Matthew, Azalea, Isabel, and Kehlani."

"Ra has been life-changing for me. I thought I'd go my whole life as a non-exerciser, but the instructors here still have me hooked over a year later. From the first time I entered the studio, the front desk staff has been consistently kind and welcoming. In particular, Matthew and Angel seem to take the time to learn everyone's name which makes the check-in process smoother and creates a warm environment."

"I came here for the Hot Ra class, which is basically the 60 minute modified version of a Bikram yoga class. It was good for newer students- the instructor tried to keep it relatively cool - the description online was 105-110 degrees but she cooled it down once we got to 105 about halfway through the class. I liked that the studio rooms have colored lights (color therapy?) where they started with red and switched to yellow for the duration of the class. The music is meditative and non-distracting, which I appreciate. Good balance of men-women, more in the 30s plus range, has a kind of Corepower yoga studio vibe, but more personal touches like a cute blackboard drawing about finding your direction, and a book exchange corner. 4 showers in the locker room and 2 bathrooms."
