What It Is

Breathe Together Yoga is a yoga studio and wellness center located in Los Gatos, California, serving the Silicon Valley community. According to its official website, the organization offers more than 70 in-person and online classes each week, along with workshops, teacher training, retreats, a Wellness Center, and Mandala Tea House. Rather than being just a typical yoga studio, it feels more like a comprehensive wellness space built around yoga, meditation, healing, and community service.

Core Classes and Teaching Formats

Its class offerings are broad, covering Vinyasa, Yin/Restorative, Hatha, Tapas Hot Yoga, Ashtanga, Meditation, Pilates, Aerial, Prenatal, and Yoga for Cancer. For more advanced practitioners, the site provides fairly detailed information on Mysore-style Ashtanga, emphasizing that students practice at their own pace while receiving individualized guidance from teachers. Online classes are livestreamed via Zoom, require registration through the MindBody system, and class links are sent by email. There are also 200+ recorded classes ranging from 10 to 90 minutes, with multilingual content and participation from more than 20 teachers/experts.

Certification and Institutional Background

Its Joy of Yoga School of Integrative Learning was founded by Jennifer Prugh. The official website states that it was established in 2007 and is registered with Yoga Alliance. Its training catalog includes 100-hour, 200-hour, 300-hour, and 1000-hour programs, as well as trauma-informed yoga certification, aerial yoga certification, and more, making it suitable for students who want to progress systematically or move toward a teaching path. However, the collected text does not provide detailed syllabi, tuition fees, or teacher biographies for each training program, so further verification is still needed when assessing the value and credibility of the certifications.

Pricing

Pricing information is relatively transparent. New students can get 3 weeks of unlimited in-person and online classes for $67. A regular drop-in class costs $38, while a 10-class pack is $320. For memberships, unlimited membership is $228/month or $2,268/year; 8 classes per month is $188; and 4 classes per month is $118. The Mysore trial is $99, and Unlimited + Mysore is $248/month. It is worth noting that monthly memberships generally require a 3-month commitment, cancellation requires 30 days’ notice, early termination requires payment of 40% of the remaining contract balance, and the refund and transfer policies are also fairly strict.

Pros, Cons, and Who It’s For

Its strengths include a wide variety of class types, complete in-person facilities, both livestream and recorded online options, and what appears to be a fairly mature teacher training system. Members can also enjoy discounts on workshops, retail, wellness services, and more. The downsides are that the pricing is not low, the contract terms are not very friendly to last-minute changes, and the text provides limited information on specific teacher qualifications and training fees. It is best suited for Silicon Valley locals aged 12 and above, people who want to attend classes regularly, Ashtanga/Mysore enthusiasts, those seeking prenatal/postnatal or cancer-care-related yoga, and students preparing to enter yoga teacher training.

Access from China

Users in mainland China will mainly be able to use the online livestream or recorded resources, but livestreaming depends on Zoom, registration depends on MindBody and email notifications, and access stability may be affected by the local network environment. It should therefore be considered “partially restricted.” If you only want to watch public videos, the experience may be easier; if you plan to participate in livestream membership classes long term, it is best to test the connection, time zone compatibility, and payment process in advance.
