I love Iyengar Yoga! I love the high level of instruction to be had at The Institute! Soooo many good teachers, try and study with them all! Athena Pappas, Brian Hogencamp, Jackie Nett, Kathy Alief, Sachiko Willis, etc, etc!! I also especially love coming to workshops!
I live in Oakland now so I take classes at Adeline but I always come when I can for the workshops! 3 hours of detailed instructions. Wow! I'm also a member, so I make sure to put on my calendar the special membership programs! I come to fellowship but mainly I come to learn, to look within, to chant and find my center. Special shout-out to the front desk Trish, Misea and Magi! Thank you so much for all u do!
Very calm and fun class (beginners). Focuses on teaching how to do poses correctly and let's you learn how to get to more advanced poses. I've been active with dance, pilates and yoga my entire life and I found this class helpful, challenging and the instructor had a great sense of humor. Thanks!!
Fantastic instructors and a welcoming community. Unlike flow/vinyasa yoga, this style of yoga is accessible to people of all ages. It's a very diverse community in terms of age, gender and race. Iyengar yoga will make you strong and flexible, but much more safely than flow yoga as the focus is on form. I also like the space.
As a practitioner of Iyengar yoga for 25 years, I appreciate the consistency and training of the teachers at IYISF. The facility is clean, well-lighted, and perfectly suited for the practice of Iyengar yoga. Support staff are pleasant to deal with and competent. Location is easy to get to: lots of public transportation and, if you drive, street parking is mostly available.
Excellent teachers, clean and inviting studio, huge variety of classes. I highly recommend IYISF for both new and experienced students.
I go to the Institute in NYC and decided to take a class while in San Francisco. I was impressed as always with the teachers and environment!
nice studio..but classes aren't challenging enough. I did Buckram for 6yrs and this doesn't compare. They def need to take it up a couple of notches.
Authenticity. Most of the studios in SF and other places are a bit faux. IYI comes straight from the source and heart of India. Teachers understand poses on a deep level and give pointers and tips that completely transform the pose. These queues are coming directly from Iyengar, the yoga masters, expertise and when you get it, it is exactly how the pose is meant to be done. I also love all the workshops and beautiful studio.

The facility and quality of instruction are both world class. A special place to learn, practice, and be inspired.
The most committed yoga teachers in San Francisco teach at the Iyengar Institute. The instruction is detailed and the use of props is sophisticated. If the beginning student maintains a regular practice, it is truly a transformational experience and you'll be inverted and meditating in Sirsasana in no time !

The Iyengar Yoga Institute of San Francisco is a not-for-profit fully equipped yoga studio conveniently located in the heart of San Francisco's Pacific Heights neighborhood. There are over 50 classes per week and more than 20 teachers to choose from offering classes in all levels. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the facility is clean and bright. All of the teachers are certified to teach Iyengar yoga, and have many years of experience as practitioners and teachers. In addition to classes, there are workshops to choose from taught by local and visiting teachers from around the country and world. They also offer community events, teacher training, and philosophy study groups. There is an excellent library curated with many of the key texts on yoga. If you have never been, I recommend you give it a try. They offer a 3 for $36 welcome pass for new students. The Iyengar method is especially well suited to people who have never tried yoga before. It is a safe and approachable method for learning.

This is the place for Iyengar Yoga in San Francisco. Over the past few years, I've taken classes with many of the teachers and they are each excellent.
I absolutely LOVE this place. Beautiful studio, unpretentious, great teachers. I donate when I can, and I never feel pressured (this is nice considering rent usually steals most of my paycheck) Though I usually try to give more on Sundays for the candlelit class Try to get there early..even though the studio is good size, it fills up quick!

Love, love, and love me some more Iyengar Institute of SF. I have received the best yoga instruction in the Bay at the school. Staff is super friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend it to everyone regardless of level.
Anne Saliou is the very best!!!! I developed a constant pain in my neck that never went away. Turns out I had developed bad arthritis from a whiplash car accident in my 20's. Anne's neck & back class took that pain away. I now have a set of exercises that keeps that problem at bay. It sounds dramatic, but Anne gave me my life back. (Found Anne through my acupuncturist.) My Orthopedist tried anti inflammatory topical Voltaren cream & oral, but only temp results. Next step was cortisone injections, but he warned these deteriorate the cartilage & eventually make situation worse necessitating surgery down the road. Thank God I found Anne Saliou!!!! Orthopedist followed my results, gave him a copy of the exercises to help others. It is approx. 10 years later now & life is good.
Wonderful place to practice yoga - for all levels. Knowledgeable, dedicated teachers; clean, pleasant surroundings; atmosphere of warmth and welcome. I love IYISF.
Wanted to try some yoga on the West Coast while on vacation. Am familiar but not expert at Iyengar yoga. The staff. from the receptionist to the instructors, were incredibly kind and patient with this newish yoga practitioner! I loved every minute of it, and not only was I challenged with the poses, I felt confident to try new things with their guidance. I hope someday to return and take another class.
Phenomenal instructors and fantastic staff! My wife and I have been coming here for 3 years. We love everything about the studio and have found that our practice has greatly improved through the instruction we've been receiving here.
I have been practicing Iyengar Yoga since 1993 and became a certified teacher via the IYISF teacher training program. I cannot tell you the extent of the difference yoga has made in my life and that of my children and family. The new studio on Sutter Street shows all the love and care that was put into its construction, and is a lovely place to learn and grow. As a digital marketer, I need yoga and find that my IYISF classes keep me healthy, strong, and balanced for working and parenting. The ROI of yoga infinite. I cannot recommend IYISF highly enough, so I'll leave it at 5 Stars. Thank you for everything you have done for me!
Theresa's lunchtime yoga class is hands-down the best yoga class I've taken and it's offered at an unbeatable price. I am so grateful for the opportunity to receive expert instruction at a cost I can easily account into my monthly budget.
This is one of the premier yoga studios in all of Northern California - highly trained teachers in a beautiful facility offering classes and workshops for the novice to advanced practitioner. Great if your are injured, ill or stiff. Great if you are able bodied and wanting to delve further into the benefits of yoga.
