I have been doing yoga for a couple of years now and I have been to several studios all over the Bay Area and Southern California, Funky Door is the one place that I always keep coming back. It is a very consistent place the classes are always on time and there is usually a good amount of people in every class. They always have good instructors and a generally good vibe in the room. Bikhram at Funky Door was the begging of my transformation and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a Bikhram studio to try.

I got a free one month pass to the Funky Door Yoga place in Berkeley from my brother. I had my first and last class last night. Let me start by saying the class itself and the instructor were great. The reason it was my last class is a ...

This Yoga is challenging and rewarding and certainly unique . Depending on what kind of day I have , It seems
sometimes impossible and on other days doable. I feel, fresh cleansed and whole afterwards. Sometimes they heat the room a bit to much. When that happens I take a place at the side windows or entrance doors, it's cooler there with the air flow. Granted, It takes time out of my day but , hey, that's the time for myself with no phone ringing (what a blessing). I go twice a week.
The people there are really nice, good energy all around and lot's of support from the teacher, especially after the class.
The studio in Berkeley I go to is very clean which I think makes all the difference.
If you are thinking of trying it make sure to bring your own water bottle. You will need it!
I hope this information is helpful
