Not everyone comes to yoga for the same reason. Good thing you don’t have to 🐾

Some people come to stretch and move. Some come to breathe a little deeper. Some come to work hard, sweat, and explore. Some come because it’s the one hour of the day nobody needs anything from them. And some honestly just come to be around other people for a bit.

That’s the beauty of a neighborhood yoga studio.

Black Dog Yoga in Studio City; locally owned, community built, and managed by actual yogis. From gentle and restorative classes to spicy flows and workshops that push your edge a little, there’s space for all of it here.

On deck, ’s Inversion Workshop on June 6th 🤸 and our Fall 200-hour Teacher Training coming up this September with , and .matthews📖🙇🏼‍♀️ 📚

Upside down, but make it accessible 🙃

’s Inversion Workshop is coming to Black Dog Yoga in Studio City on Saturday, June 6 at 1pm.

Yes, there’ll be handstands, headstands, forearm stands, and some spicy variations. But this workshop isn’t about throwing yourself upside down and hoping for the best. It’ll be approachable, playful, and way less scary than your brain wants to make it.

No “already being good at inversions” required. Promise. Although if you are, you’ll probably learn a few new tricks too.

Come play. Come get curious. Come spend a Saturday seeing things from a different perspective.

The sound of laughter may have only been matched by the occasional “wait… I can actually do this?” 👀

Bolder Not Older Part 3 came to our Studio City space this weekend, with Barbara + Bonnie took their show to the mat, proving once again that the proper tools, the right cueing, and a willingness to play can open doors to poses people never thought possible.

Strong doesn’t have to mean serious. And “advanced” sometimes just means having the right tools and people around you.

Treats for the feet. Tips for the hips. Partner work. Lots of laughs. Maybe a few surprise breakthroughs. Thanks to everyone who came out to move, explore, and surprise yourselves 🐾

A little Black Dog Yoga history lesson 📚🐾

On May 2, 2002, Sigrid Matthews taught her very first class at BDY. Quite a journey from those old Sherman Oaks strip mall days. Yesterday, 24 years to the day, we surprised her with 24 flowers before class 🌸

24 years later… still here, still guiding, still doing that thing where you walk out feeling a little more like yourself.

Through every version of the studio (and there have been a few), Sigrid’s been a constant. And that’s no small thing. We’re lucky to be part of it.

Find her every Tuesday for the doubleheader: 9am Hatha and 1030a Gentle Yoga + Stretch and then on Saturdays at 10am for Yoga For Well Being. See you on the mat 🧘👀

We’re usually not fans of pop quizzes, but Bonnie + Barbara have our attention at martini and toe spacers. (And honestly… we don’t even want to know about the 👙)

If you know them at all, you know nothing’s impossible.

Bolder Not Older is back this Saturday for Part 3 with and bringing treats for your feet, tips for your hips, fun poses to explore, and enough laughter to count as core work.

Strong, playful, and absolutely no boring allowed.

One year of Rin at the front desk 🐾

If you’ve come in for class on a Tuesday afternoon or evening, chances are you’ve been greeted by ’s smile first 😊

Deskies do a little bit of everything around here—welcoming you in, helping when schedules get weird, answering questions, finding lost water bottles, keeping things moving, and somehow knowing everyone’s name.

They’re the first hello and a big part of what makes Black Dog feel like Black Dog.

People are our business and community, and we’re lucky to have really good ones. Like Rin. Happy 1-year BDY anniversary 🤍

A little more Rebecca, a little more exhale 🤍

You already know and love her Wednesday 10:30a Yin… so we gave you Mondays too.

Rebecca Train is now on the schedule twice a week in Studio City:
✨ Mondays 10:30a
✨ Wednesdays 10:30a

Yin is the slower side of the practice—longer holds, deep stretch, nervous system reset, and the kind of quiet that sneaks up on you when you realize your shoulders finally dropped.

Less rushing. More breathing. More space.

Come unwind with at BDY 🐾 Save your spot online, either on the website or our free app 🐾

Happy birthday to Larry Santiago 🎉

Co-owner, teacher, and longtime leader of Saturday “let’s see what happens” yoga.

His 830am Saturday gathering is a little bit of everything: work hard, breathe deep, try something new, and maybe surprise yourself.

Find your edge… but also know when your edge is “absolutely not today.” 😏

He’s off this weekend celebrating, so .heeran is covering the —but the good times remain.

Have a great day, LS 🤍

Bolder Not Older — Part 3 💥 At this point it’s basically a workshop + comedy duo

Bonnie + Barbara are back and if you’ve been to Parts 1 or 2… you already know things will be learned, hips will open, feet will be treated… and there will be a lot of laughing in between 😹

Slightly unhinged (in the best way), wildly knowledgeable, and it all works seamlessly
