Barefoot Yoga Studio - Davis, California

By far my favorite yoga experience in Davis! I loved the Yin class with Christine; the small class size made it feel intimate, focused, and peaceful. As a first-timer, I felt very welcomed and comfortable from the moment I arrived. Christine did a wonderful job balancing the quiet stillness of Yin with clear, insightful instruction. I’ll definitely be back to explore more classes. The $18 drop-in option was perfect for a first visit, affordable and flexible. I also appreciate that this studio offers a variety of classes beyond just hot, workout-focused sessions, making it accessible to everyone. Thank you, Barefoot and Christine!

Barefoot Yoga Studio offers a range of amazing classes with a variety of times throughout the week, which has made it easy for myself to book classes even as a busy student. The instructors are great, and Mei is very accommodating and friendly!

I take my 7 year old son to the weekly kids' yoga class with Mei. She is a greater teacher with a balance of fun and focus. My son's posture and body awareness has slowly been improving because of the yoga poses he's learned and enjoys practicing them every night before bedtime. I highly recommend the kids' yoga class.

This is the only yoga studio in Davis with any connection to a spiritual lineage, which is very important to me. The space is beautiful, they offer many differing shapes and sizes of props, and the studio space is clean. The online interface is easy and the cost is competitive.
The entryway, changing rooms, and bathrooms are dingy and outdated with dirty cement floors and kinda dirty mats. It doesn't make me want to walk around barefoot (pun intended).
The class sizes are small, which means you get more attention if you want that. Sometimes I prefer to keep a meditative mindset upon entry and exit, though, and the chatting of both students and teachers in the studio space was a little interruptive. That's entirely personal preference, though!
This is likely to become my home studio so I'm looking forward to figuring out which teachers jive best with my style.

First time at Barefoot Yoga Studio and it was amazing! Mei is so nice and really good at teaching yoga. Loved Christine's Yin Yoga too! The studio is super calming and cozy. Can't wait to go back! Highly recommend!

I went here for the first time with a friend several years ago for a winter deal they offered. It is a great studio and affordable. The owner is very nice as well as all instructors. It is such a relaxing and interesting environment inside, it is a good escape from the reality of daily life. I highly recommend it here!

I wanted to put out there that I’ve been attending Barefoot Yoga classes in Davis, CA., and I’ve really enjoyed the yoga classes taught by Mei, the owner. This is an unpaid and unsolicited review of her Vinyasa, gentle yoga, warm stretch, and yoga for neck and shoulders classes.

I took the neck and shoulder class today. I have arthritis in most places, especially my neck and spine and her instruction really helped me to release the tension in a way that I have been unable to achieve at home alone.

She’s also respectful of boundaries. On my first class she asked about limitations and if I wanted hands on adjustments in class. I said no and she has been respecting my boundary for no touch. (I hear other people enjoy her touch, but it’s just not for me right now).

The only critique I have is that her “warm stretch” class is a little bit more vigorous than what I would consider a warm stretch (more like a slightly lighter Vinyasa with slightly longer warm up and cool downs).

Please check out Barefoot Yoga. The studio is really clean. She has changing rooms, and a clean toilet area too. She has 2 week offers and also has other really reasonable membership plans and other flexible pricing options. There’s parking and bike racks and is easily accessible from most parts of town.

I've been coming to Barefoot Yoga for over a year. I've tried many studios in town and this is my favorite! Each teacher is so supportive, and it's a beautiful space with great energy.
