At Yoga Changes, a welcoming yoga studio in Santa Monica, we’re proud to be the home of many beloved former YogaWorks teachers—instructors known for their deep experience, heartfelt teaching, and decades of dedication to the practice. These highly respected teachers bring their passion and expertise to every class, helping us build one of the most trusted yoga communities on the Westside.
Since opening just three years ago, Yoga Changes has become a local hub for high-quality yoga classes in Santa Monica, offering a nurturing space for students of all levels—from complete beginners to longtime practitioners. Whether you're joining us in studio or online, you’ll find classes that support your growth and well-being.
As a teacher-run yoga studio, we offer something for everyone—Vinyasa, Slow Flow, Gentle Yoga, Roller Yoga, Sound Healing, and more.
What started as a dream to create a community-centered yoga home has become a vibrant space where new students feel seen and seasoned yogis stay inspired.
