The styles they teach
“I saw a Vinyasa Flow class with Ron Victor for 4 credits and decided to try it.”
“I’m still a beginner and I felt like she was very thorough with every movement we were taking.”
What's on offer
“I've never really done yoga before--other than some Ring Fit and a few youtube videos--but I wanted to give it a try through ClassPass.”

From the reviews
I was invited to attend a session in June 2024 by Ron, while I was in town for a mutual Arizona State University (ASU) alumni event, and I was so glad I attended. Almaden Yoga is hidden inside the 'mall' with no big signs outside, but it is a gem!
In A Nutshell: -Almaden Yoga is a convenient shala for those living in South San Jose, Los Gatos, Campbell, etc... -Plenty of parking as long as you book a class when Costco isn't open. -The staff is very kind & welcoming. -I really like the pricing too. -If you don't have a mat, they have some to use for free.
After checking out a few studios in the area, Almaden Yoga really takes the win for me. All of their instructors are fantastic and they have a really wide range of class offerings. I have felt very welcomed by everyone there and always look forward to attending a class.
Almaden yoga is one of the most inclusive and welcoming studios in the Bay Area. The owner's passion about yoga is so clear and they want everyone to be involved. The studio is neat and clean and the staff is friendly.
Teacher training at Almaden Yoga
Almaden Yoga comes up for teacher training — confirmed on their own site. If you're thinking about becoming an instructor, a few things are worth asking up front. First, which certification the program leads to — most hot-yoga trainings are Yoga Alliance registered (RYT-200 or RYT-500), and the style matters: a Bikram or hot-power lineage trains differently than a hot-vinyasa or sculpt one. Second, the schedule and prerequisites — cohorts often run in intensive weekend blocks or over several months, and many studios want you practicing regularly there first. Third, cost and payment plans, and whether tuition includes an unlimited membership for the training period. Teacher training is a real commitment of time and money, so it's worth a call or an info session before you enroll.
Your first hot yoga class at Almaden Yoga
Nervous about your first hot class? Almost everyone is, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: the room is heated, so it feels intense for the first few minutes — rest in child's pose any time you need to, no one will bat an eye. Hydrate: drink water through the day before class, not just as you arrive, and bring a bottle. What to bring: a mat and towel, water, and a change of clothes; wear something light you don't mind sweating through, and skip a heavy meal in the couple of hours beforehand. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and set up. It gets easier fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.
