Welcome to California Yoga Center
California Yoga Center has been offering yoga for all ages and abilities since 1980. Elise Miller, certified Senior Iyengar teacher, along with other certified Iyengar instructors, graduates of Iyengar Yoga Institute of San Francisco and teachers who have studied extensively with certified Iyengar teachers, comprise our dedicated and knowledgeable staff.
CYC's 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.
