Rejuvenate at Dantian Studio

I had the amazing opportunity to attend a yogalates class at Datian Studio this past week. The well appointed studio is conveniently located on Baker Street in Costa Mesa between Bristol and the 55 Fwy. Dantian Studio is not just a fitness studio. This little treasure is a retreat where you can not only work on physical fitness, but receive therapy for your “mind, body, soul and skin”. I love that they take a wholistic approach to physical fitness and wellbeing. You can’t truly be physically fit if you’re not tending to the needs of your mind and spirit as well.

Lots of class options!

Several different fitness classes are available throughout the week from yoga and pilates to crosscore you can find the perfect workout for your body’s needs. I chose to attend a 60-min yogalates class. One of the things I absolutely loved was that it was a small class. I wasn’t one of 30 people in an over-crowded, over-heated room. Since the class size was small, our instructor, Michelle, was able to meet our needs individually. When I needed help with a pose she was there to help guide me. When another gal needed a modification, she was able to address that need as well. Throughout the entire workout we were guided to maintain a balance of spirit, heart, body and mind. While my core got a thorough workout, my mind was centered and I was also able to relax and leave the stress of daily life behind. I left the class not only more toned, but feeling rejuvenated as well.

Like I said, Dantian is not just about physical fitness. They offer several therapy solutions for addressing the needs of your body, mind, and soul. They have massage thereapy, infrared sauna therapy, chiropractic, along with NLP therapy just to name a few.
