The Foundry Thousand Oaks

I was lucky enough to find The Foundry when looking for a place to start my yoga journey. The studio is so nice on the inside. It's always kept clean, and the ladies' locker room is great as well. The instructors I've had so far have been so welcoming and encouraging despite my struggles. They let you go at your own pace, which I love because I don't feel overwhelmed when I can't keep up. Plus, they have all been kind enough to check on me if I have to step out of class because I'm still adjusting. They offer different types of classes, and the staff are happy to explain the difference in each one and what to expect. I'm looking forward to trying more classes and improving with each one!.

I've never done hot yoga before (and am a novice at yoga generally), but a friend recommended hot yoga as a way to recover from a long run. I took Tara's Hot Flow Yoga class the day after the Ventura Marathon and it was incredible! Although it was much harder than I anticipated (the heat takes getting used to!), I felt so loose and relaxed afterwards. Tara and the staff were all so nice and welcoming. I will definitely be incorporating this into my post-race recovery routine! Thanks to everyone at The Foundry Yoga!.

The studio has plenty of space. Hot but not too hot. Clean. Friendly staff. The instructor was excellent. I am not a Yogi and I felt comfortable and the instructor gave me helpful instruction. I would definitely return.
