the 8:30 am cycle beats instructor for Sunday was especially nice. she helped me get situated since it was my first time ever. this was even more important to me because she was a sub and had a lot of other things going on, but still took the time to help. More...

Really, really good! Relax in Yin (Genevieve is my absolute favorite) or Vinyasa, sweat it out in Hot Pilates or cycle to your hearts content. Personalized attention from each instructor in every type of class. They actually asked me about my fitness experience and expectations. At the beginning of every class I hear the instructor ask participants about any injuries and offers modifications for just about every move. Plenty of parking, lots of classes and tiimes and really good vibe. Plus there's a cute little coffee shop they share an entrance with to grab a smoothie, tea or coffee on the way out. Great intro offer $39 for 30 days unlimited. More...

Everybody is so friendly and all walks of life are welcome! My wife introduced (dragged) me to Joya for hot yoga, which is very challenging. I quickly became a member and enjoy Inferno Hot PILATES, cycle, cycle/strength, and even hot yoga. The instructors are all different in their own way, and they are all great! The Studio is awesome, bathrooms are clean, and the equipment is top quality.Don't be intimidated. Come check it out! More...

I cannot day enough about this studio! I had a really toxic relationship with working out before coming here six months ago, the instructors have been excellent at uplifting me by ensuring me that what I have to give each day is enough. I have never felt (or looked) better! The staff is amazing but if you come here, make sure to take some classes with Amy, Dash, and Kristin. More...

I've been a member for a month now.  I take the Inferno Hot Pilates (which I think they will rename as HIIT since it's more appropriate) and spin classes.  Love the instructors and how friendly all the staff member are.  Parking is tough, but that's downtown Livermore for you.  But I've never had to park more than half a block away.Studio is clean and doesn't smell (excludes people's scent after the workout begins!).  Bring your own mats and towels or rent them.  Cycle studio is tight.  The bikes are close together, but I have yet to be in a cycle studio where they are not.  You can rent cycle shoes.  They have a café that I haven't tried yet, but is attached to studio so very convenient to get to. My only negative is that the evening classes in the Inferno Hot Pilates are packed.  Even though you have to sign up for the classes in advance, you have to plead with some people to make room for you.  It's also irritating when I see people saving spaces for friends and it's really not fair for people who get there early.  I don't mind being close to people, but some exercises will have you bumping legs & arms with your neighbor.  However, most members are understanding and reposition themselves, some not so; so be prepared for some "looks".  Overall, great club. I get everything I need: cardio & strength in one place that's conveniently close to me.  Also, hands down to the cool-scented face cloths they handout after each hot yoga class.  So refreshing!

Hands down the best yoga/cycle studio. I've been coming here for years now and the owners and instructors all make you feel welcome. No matter your size, age or level of experience, JOYA is a place for you. I Love grabbing a delicious coffee or kombucha at their Livermore cafe after working my tail off in class. I never post on yelp but this place is so great, I just had to spread the word. Bonus - they have multiple other locations too if you want to squeeze in a workout at lunch on a workday. More...

I cannot say enough great things about this studio! Joya offers unique, challenging and exciting classes. My personal favorites include Inferno Hot Pilates, Barre Fury and Aerial Yoga/Barre. In addition to their workout classes, they also offer workshops such as Kundalini Yoga and Meditations.The studio itself is incredibly clean and the staff is always helpful. Each instructor offers something different in the class. Bonus - at the end of the heated classes, the staff passes out chilled towels with refreshing essential oils.The studio has a cozy cafe in the front with delicious coffee drinks, protein shakes and (my favorite) Kava drinks. Thank you Joya for offering so many unique classes and such a wonderful experience! More...

I truly wish I lived closer to this place! Found this gem from a fb post and thought I'd give it a try because they do a lot of different exercise classes nothing like what I have near Hollywood. Went to the kettlebell class and thought it kicked my rear end and got a great sweat. The coffee shop in the other wing was a beautiful touch and I even signed up for a B12 shot! Luckily I didn't feel a thing and hope to see more natural energy haha. Anyway thanks Joya your staff was super nice and thoughtful and would easily live at your coffee bar. More...

I fell in love the moment I walked in the door. Of all the yoga studios I have been to this one feels the most like a family. Not only is the studio one of the most cleanest places I have ever seen, but every member of the Joya team makes you feel so comfortable from the moment you walk in the door. During the classes, the teachers are so inspirational, allow you to go at your own pace and embrace you in ways that help encourage yourself to continue and feel better. Deanna and Razi are amazing! As owners they take it upon themselves to get to know their members on a personal and spiritual level, and welcome you into their studio with open arms and enthusiasm. I am so thankful that I have found a safe, clean and loving place to be a part of. More...

This is where its happening!!!! I have been exercising at this place for several months on & off. They have expanded their classes and studio. The studio is ALWAYS clean, well-ventilated and high vibe! All the staff members are knowledgeable, approachable and friendly.  Some of them  are absolutely fun, supportive yet they bring out the best of you during work outs; my favorite is Jennifer for Pilates and Ksenia for Ashtanga-Vinyasa. They both are punctual, precise in giving instructions during class; sweet and gentle addressing each student at their yoga-level during class. After a misunderstanding with my payments, the admins were polite, patient and professional answering my inquiries and solving the financial issue. They also offer free workshops, sound meditation and social events. Make sure you try the KavaColada at their cafe, specially after a great work-out. More...

I was so happy to discover Joya Yoga & Cycle in Livermore. This studio provides a wide variety of yoga and fitness classes that help me meet my fitness goals. I'm a doctor of chiropractic and an advanced yoga practitioner, and I know the importance of maintaining good health. I had been looking for a studio that can expand my experience into other types of yoga and fitness programs. I want to share a few of the many reasons why I am recommending Joya Yoga & Cycle.It means a lot to me that Joya Yoga & Cycle is family-owned and operated, not part of a large franchise. The owners, Deanna and Roger, are very nice people, and they put a lot of time and care into making the studio a friendly place to come. If I have questions, they take time to listen and respond to my needs. They care about the members who come here and help us to feel comfortable. Another plus is that they host community events that support local groups.Deanna is a Bikram-certified instructor who knows both the art and philosophy of yoga. She has gathered a good variety of teachers together to provide classes in Bikram, traditional yoga, and many different fitness programs. The studio offers Bikram, Ashtanga vinyasa, yoga classes with heat and non-heated, Cycling, PowerFly, KettleBell, Pilates, Barre, and Aerial yoga. The wide variety of teachers give the members an opportunity to find one that is a good fit, from beginners to advanced. The studio is open from early morning to late evening, with class lengths that vary from 60 to 90 minutes. I have been able to participate in many of these classes. Teachers in this studio are all professional and friendly. I recommend each one of the classes.The studio is very convenient, with plenty of parking in a big lot. It has a coffee shop that provides a variety of coffee, tea and other healthy beverages. The well-maintained studio has three spaces, with polished wood floors and wide windows that fill the room with natural light. I appreciate the online reservation app that this studio uses to keep the class sizes reasonable. I can cancel or modify a reservation if my schedule requires it. The system makes check-in smooth, and it takes no time at all.I highly recommend Joya Yoga & Cycle to anyone who wants to improve their health and fitness. Deanna and Roger will take good care of you, and this studio will satisfy you with great classes and superb customer service. More...

I’m hooked. Joining this yoga studio was a very good decision for me. I’ve been going for 9 mos. My feet were healing after having bad plantar fasciitis and I was skeptical as to whether doing any exercise barefoot—even if it was non-impact—would be ok for my feet. I have been pain free. I think the hot pilates and hot yoga have helped strengthen the muscles in my feet, ankles, and legs so that I no longer suffer. I’ve now branched into PowerFLY, aerial yoga and today for the first time—cycle. I have a road bike and am familiar with spin classes—but this cycle class was awesome! Over these last nine months, I have gained muscle strength, my body is toning, and I’ve lost 6 lbs—partly due to following and intermittent fasting way of eating. These classes are some of the ways I do the best thing for me. The instructors are awesome and caring and the facility is modern and beautiful! Love it! More...

I was driving to Danville to go to yoga and decided I should finally find a studio here in Livermore. I actually drove around to a few studios and checked them all out. JOYA was my favorite based on facility amenities and staff. Everyone is really friendly, helpful and welcoming. They just expanded their studio so they now offer more classes and times which is great. I just signed up for a monthly membership and i couldn't be happier. They have such a variety of classes that is keeps my workouts very interesting, which I need or else I get bored. Some classes are packed, but I always get a spot (whether I'm early or late). At the end of your practice, they bring around chilled and scented towels, which is incredible in my opinion. I always leave feeling calm and refreshed.I absolutely recommend coming to this studio.
