Purple Yoga, Long Beach

Dim-lighting illuminates busts of Buddha and Chinese tapestries as you step into the quiet studio at Purple Yoga. The studio boasts nearly 30 trained instructors and teachers, who each lead unique yoga classes to heal the body and calm the mind. Classes range from introductory with Purple Yoga's "Blue 60" course to the advanced with "Purple 70," which is led with very little instruction.

Yoga enthusiasts have far more options at Purple Yoga than just the standard yoga classes, though. Those looking for an intense week of yoga in some of the world's most pristine locations can attend one of Purple Yoga's yoga retreats, featuring international and domestic locations. Anyone who loves yoga and wants to share their passion and knowledge can sign up for Purple Yoga's 200-hour teacher training and become a certified yoga teacher.
