Beach yoga was so much fun. the instructor geared the session to our levels. One person in our group never did yoga before and he had a great time. The view is amazing. The instructor took amazing photos of us and had us do fun poses.

This experience was very fun and relaxing. I really enjoyed the opportunity to do yoga on the beach. I am a beginner at yoga and yet still felt very comfortable doing all the moves. I had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this experience to anyone traveling in the area.

Amazing Experience

Monica_K, Apr 2025

Cathy was an amazing instructor! She was so considerate in providing us with directions to the location, helping us store our luggage after we had immediately disembarked from our ship beforehand, making accommodations for my older parent, demonstrating different movements, providing encouragement during the session and adding aromatherapy with lavender spray. I felt comfortable as a beginner and much less stressed afterward. Hearing the waves in the background and being on the beach while doing yoga was definitely a memorable bucket list experience for me!

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Monica! Wishing you safe travels home after what sounds like an amazing girls’ trip! Hope you're heading back with lots of great memories and a full heart. And...team Jess all the way! :)

Cathy is amazing! Exactly...

Arun_B, Apr 2025

Cathy is amazing! Exactly what I needed to feel refreshed, stretched and zen with my mind & body. ☺️

Response from Host, Apr 2025

I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed the yoga session and felt its benefits! I hope you continue to incorporate yoga into your weekly routine. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and share your experience!

Beach Yoga with Cathy

Fonnie_G, Apr 2025

This was a fabulous experience. My husband does not practice yoga but enjoyed the practice and was surprised at what his large stature was able to do when Cathy directed us into some partner poses. The optional lavendar forehead and temple massage was a perfect ending. It was the beach yoga practice I was looking for, for sure! Cathy stayed in communication before, and even sent photos after. We have literally no complaints.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

I'm so glad that beach yoga was part of your birthday celebration! Safe travels home, and best wishes to you on your yoga journey. Maybe the hubs will join you one day :) Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!

A Zen-tastic Experience!

Josh_M, Mar 2025

Beach yoga with Cathy was such a wonderful way to start my day in La Jolla! Cathy was so great at leading our yoga practice, she gave helpful tips, and she was super friendly! I would absolutely recommend this experience to others who are visiting the area!

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Loved yoga on the beach!

Helen_A, Jul 2024

We really enjoyed yoga on the beach! Such a fun and relaxing experience and the instructor Cathy was excellent and created such a memorable experience.

Cathy is a wonderful yoga instructor

Anna_M, Jun 2024

Cathy is the most amazing yoga instructor. She made the yoga class a wonderful experience not only for the body but also for the mind. A lot of positive energy and mindfulness. She brought yoga mat's, bug spray and lavender oil. I would highly recommend her. Thank you so much Cathy for making our vacation even better. We loved it ♥️ Anna&Gene

Beach Bliss

Lori_M, Sep 2023

The beach is my happy place so, despite no experience with yogis, I’ve always wanted to try this. Our instructor, Cathy Duffy, was wonderful—passionate, positive and patient. She finished our session with a relaxing lavender oil. And I still feel great the next day!

Best yoga class- EVER!

Denise_R, Aug 2023

My daughter and I were fortunate enough to get Cathy to ourselves for our yoga class. I can not even begin to tell you what a wonderful experience this was, from the start. Cathy was so friendly and easy to talk to. She took the time to get to know us before the class and she was able to cater the class to our level. The sound of the waves, the blue sky, the smell of lavender in the air (provided by Cathy) was a most exhilarating experience. At the end, Cathy provided temple massages which was AMAZING! My daughter and I were visiting La Jolla for 24 hours and this was the highlight of our stay. If Cathy and the beach are what this fabulous city are about - there is no doubt we will be back! Thank you Cathy for a worthwhile and wonderful morning! Don’t hesitate and book your reservation!

Unique relaxing experience

Suzanne_B, Feb 2023

This was such a fun unique experience. Loved being able to do yoga on the beach and Cathy was a fantastic instructor.

The Best Way to Spend My Birthday!

Ashley_L, Jan 2023

Beach Yoga with Cathy was the best way to spend my birthday. I live on the east coast and wanted to get away from the frigid winter weather so I traveled to San Diego. Having a winter birthday has never afforded me the opportunity to celebrate on the beach. This year I did and I'm so grateful to have booked with Cathy. She gave perfectly clear directions so my Lyft driver was able to drop me off at the location and I was able to find the meeting location on the beach perfectly. I enjoyed having Cathy there to guide me through my practice. Her energy was very calming and reassuring as I'm still new to yoga. At the end of our time together I couldn't stop telling her thank you. I felt completely relaxed and grateful for the experience. Next time I'm in San Diego I plan to book with Cathy again - it was that much fun!

Perfect! Just what I needed.

Dannette_M, Jan 2023

I ended up being the only participant on this brisk January morning. Cathy was great to do class anyway. She guided me, supported me and challenged me. Such a blessing to me. Felt like it was all meant to be. So grateful Cathy. Thank you.

Thumbs Up!!!

Robert_L, Oct 2022

Cathy is wonderful and beach yoga is the best. I definitely recommend!!! For me, it I got a lot more out of this yoga experience than a typical yoga studio. Try it and you'll love it!

Perfection.

Angela_V, Oct 2022

This was an absolutely perfect yoga glasses. I'm not exaggerating. The location was perfect. Cathy, the instructor, was absolutely wonderful. The difficulty level was spot on -- as easy or hard as you need it to be. The only bad part was that it ended after an hour.

Cathy was fantastic! Easy...

Shannon_H, Jul 2022

Cathy was fantastic! Easy to find on the beach and very relaxing. Our whole group loved this experience, especially the lavender.

Highly Recommend Yoga On The Beach.!!

Mihyun_L, Jul 2022

I highly recommend this yoga class. This yoga session has been my happy hour as it’s combination healing yoga and relax on the beach. The instructor has been so nice and the session itself is very informative. The actual session is very similar to what i have been expected when i saw the images on the website.

Best yoga experience ever. Right on the beach

Jaylynn_H, Jun 2022

Cathy was an excellent yoga instructor. This class was beginner friendly through and through. She was patient with all of us in the class. She was friendly and helpful and really taught all of us how to do breathwork. I am forever indebted to her for changing my outlook on life in general.

Sunshine and yoga!

Stacy_F, Mar 2022

We enjoyed a delightful morning on the beach with Cathy! She made it super easy to find her as we arrived at the beach. She tailored our class to what our family wanted for the experience. Yoga mats, bottled water and a little lavender (if you wanted) made for a relaxing yoga experience! Would book it again!

Words cannot describe!

Tanya_M, Mar 2022

Absolutely amazing! My mom and I were visiting LA jolla on a girl's trip and I knew she loved yoga and was missing it due to COVID. I have never done yoga so I was apprehensive about joining her on this experience. Kathy was absolutely amazing and made my feel so comfortable, she was not critical which I was nervous about since I had never done yoga before. The beginning meditation set the whole mood. Kathy turned my whole mindset about yoga around. I would tell anyone visiting LA jolla to embark on this experience.

Perfect honeymoon activity

Hannah_S, Jun 2021

Kathy was amazing. I wish we lived here so we could take her classes regularly. It was the perfect private honeymoon activity for us. I felt so relaxed and warmed up afterwards. I highly recommend this activity if you are on the fence!

Fun time

Neli_A, Sep 2020

Cathy , was so friendly and made the experience so much fun. Me and my boyfriend that were visiting tried yoga at the beach. Not only was it something fun and new for us to do, but it gave you a mental break and just focus on yourself. I really appreciated Cathy helping us and moving at our experience level.
