Classes and Workshops in the Iyengar Tradition since 1980

Welcome to California Yoga Center


California Yoga Center has been offering yoga for all ages and abilities since 1980. We offer yoga classes and workshops in the Iyengar tradition, with studios in Mountain View and Palo Alto.

This vigorous approach emphasizes a balance between strength and flexibility while building endurance. It develops self-awareness through precision in movement and attention to subtle aspects of posture and breath. CYC teachers modify postures to encourage students to develop a deeper awareness and steadiness in the classic postures.
