Body & Brain Yoga Tai Chi

Congratulations Rolling Hills center for having the best instructor and healer. Master Kim was my instructor at other center over six years. He is simply the best! Whether you are seeking to be more balance, healthier or grow spiritually, you are in best hands!

It is the place to relax my mind and body and to connect with myself. I recommend anyone who wants to improve their physical, mental, and spiritual condition to take classes here with Master Kim. It’s been one of the greatest learning experiences I’ve had with a teacher.

I was looking for some balance in my exercise regime (I do strength training twice a week) so I came to Brain and Body, Rolling Hills and I’m never looking back! I love the small, intimate studio, the knowledgeable and generous teacher (shout out to Chris!), and the accepting and inviting atmosphere. Here is where everyone is on their own journey to better physical and emotional health and we share a common space without judgement or competition. Come join us!

I love the classes offered here and the teachers (Masters). They give very close attention to us and very patiently guide me to every exercise. I gained good energy and also my health has been improved in many aspects. I am very glad I am a member of this Body & Brain studio. Since the Pandemic, B&B Rolling Hills quickly transfer all classes on Zoom, with the same schedule as before plus more workshops for us to work out during this lock-in time. If you are looking for a good source for exercises, or for improving your physical and mental health, Body&Brain classes are here for you.

I began classes as I purchased a 3 month pass since the end of February 2020, as I was looking for a whole body (easy on the body) workout. I was recovering from major surgery affecting my breasts and abdomen and took a free class in person and was able to take in person classes for a few weeks before studios were shut down. The instructors quickly pivoted to Zoom, and I have been able to take Zoom classes usually at 10 am every day class is in session. The other time for class is 6 pm and a few nights have 7:30 pm classes. I love having the accountability of doing class with my instructors, and I have enjoyed over the past 20 months a variety of instructors/ Master trainers. Currently there are options for in person classes, but I still prefer attending my Zoom which means you can take class from anywhere. I have learned to be more present in the moment, learning how to breath to relax, to meditate while focusing on working different parts of my body. I am learning Korean style Taichi, and feel that these classes have helped me stay calm and anxiety free during the pandemic. The classes have been my life saver during these past 20 months. Currently, Master Chris at the Rolling Hills Center is an excellent instructor of all different kinds of classes. Occasionally it's nice to have Master Shim or Amy teach classes as well for variety. Also, in lieu of going to the gym, Master Chris has offered 3 classes per month on strength and mobility which I have taken continuously since August 2020, and the early bird price is very reasonable for three 1.5 hour classes on Thursday evenings. As with anything new, you need to try it for at least 3 months to really get the right feel. And that is assuming regular class attendance. I am thankful for being able to find something to help me physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally as I learn to manage getting to know my body and keep it moving with energy and strength.

Joining Body and Brain Yoga is one of the most loving things I have done for myself in long time. I really just wanted to get a little exercise in. I’ve only been coming for a few weeks but I already feel a transformation taking place. Not just with my body but energetically, mentally and emotionally. Releasing stuck emotions from my body through the movements and exercises has been a healing experience. I walk out of here feeling lighter.

Master John and Panida are both beautiful and great instructors. They truly care for your well being. I’m grateful for their instruction and guidance.

Thank you Brain and Body Yoga!!
Your masters are caring and knowledgeable, and they go out of their way to provide helpful, healing classes, and to introduce us to new healing modalities.
There is literally something for everyone.

This Sunday I went to the most incredible “yoga by the sea” class.
The backdrop of the beautiful Pacific Ocean was hypnotic.
It was therapeutic to perform the gentle flow of the tai chi exercises while breathing in the crisp ocean breeze, and absorbing the sun’s healing energy.
Such a great way to start my week.

I’ve been coming for a year now and I enjoyed their classes. Wooden pillow class on Mondays is very relaxing. Deep Stretching class on Wednesdays is the most popular (tip: come early!) My favorite class is Tai Chi on Thursdays. Parking is easy. The instructors are nice and friendly (and they truly honestly care about your well being). The space is super clean and the toilet seat warmer in the bathroom is a huge bonus!

I started taking classes here a couple of months ago not really knowing much about Tai Chi, but it's been an awesome experience. The classes are a great workout, but even more importantly, they teach you so much about your body and mind. I always leave feeling way less stressed and so much more fulfilled about life. The instructors are all really supportive and spend time with you after class to help you.

I have been going to the Body & Brain center for almost ten years. The instructors are so patient, kind and always smiling. The atmosphere is relaxing and calm. The yoga and Tai Chi classes are designed for those who haven't done this type of exercise before - very gentle, yet invigorating. The more advanced yogi will also benefit though. Everyone just goes at their own pace. Attending classes at the center has become a part of my life and the wonderful members have become friends. I recommend Body and Brain 100%!

Body & Brain Yoga Tai Chi is my new favorite way to not just get exercise but to stretch, meditate, and relax. John and Panida are the most welcoming and caring teachers I’ve ever had at any workout studio. The space is calming and inviting. Parking is easy. The other people in class are so friendly that it makes me want to come to class even more. Best of all is the delicious tea served after every class :) You will be glad you came to Body & Brain!

This place is a gem hiding right out in the open. It's called Body & Brain because you go there to take care of the whole package. Each day has a different class. My favorites are Wednesday's Deep Stretching - you feel light as a feather after this class - and Friday's Vibration class, which includes not only stretching the body but also the brain. I have recently been going to Thursday's Tai Chi class, and I can swear, as a skateboarder, I notice an improvement in my balance already. At this point, I'm hooked. I can't ignore the overall improvement in my well being. Results are results. I am more centered, calmer, happier, and, at 39, I feel better physically than I have in a long time. Think you are too old? Nope. One of my favorite classmates just turned 90. Give it a shot; see for yourself. I'm glad I did.

Body & Brain provides a special place to work out, meditate, and dive into the practice of tai chi and yoga. There’s a great sense of community - people of all abilities are welcomed warmly. Master John is a fantastic teacher - his depth of knowledge is apparent immediately, and his compassion and sense of humor help you improve your practice even when the workout gets tough!

You get out of it what you put into it! I started out slowly and still benefited from attending classes. But then I resolved to commit to the classes and practice for a longer stretch of time, and the benefits (strength, energy, a sense of centeredness) were multiplied.

It’s definitely worth checking out!

I feel very relaxed coming here. The instructors really spend time with you and so down to earth. They crack me up during the class. Its very unusual for a Yoga studio. I always thought Yoga studios are all about being quiet and stuff but I feel very at home here. I really learn how to quiet my mind and become sincere and at the same time have fun with myself. You gotta try it to understand!

The first few steps i took arriving at this yoga center i already felt the great energy around me. Peaceful, beautiful, calming are all words that describe how i feel here. I began this blissful journey with a class called energy movement, from that point on i felt a huge connection with my body a feeling that was never felt before. When the workshop was over i spoke to one of the masters and said im willing to pay for the membership no matter how much it is. I know my life has changed tremendously from joining this center i have no worry, i have no fear, i have no anxiety from any of my life challenges. I have grown so much in these past few months : mentally physically and spiritually. After attending a finding true self workshop at one of the other centers i didnt realize how much my soul was hurt i always thought i was okay. After this workshop it changed me so much all i want is healing, all i want is to save myself and to love myself. Body N brain yoga has showed me the way to finding my true self. This is the answer to all your prayers.

I've been practicing Tai Chi at Body & Brain for about three months now and I believe it has made a tremendous difference in my health and how I choose to deal with stress. I found this studio at a time I needed it most... and Master John and Chris did not let me down. They are warm, caring, and excellent instructors!! They offer a variety of classes throughout the week including: Belly Button healing, wooden pillow exercises, intestine exercises, deep stretching (my favorite!), Tai Chi practice, energy/meditation, and more! Every class is different so the classes never get stale... but it's the personal attention that Master John and Chris deliver to each individual that make this studio truly stand out.

I feel so lucky to be a member of the Body & Brain Yoga. After my intestinal surgery and in the past six years, I suffered from serious stomach ache once or twice each month. Thanks for the belly button healing wand which does the magic wonder as well as for the Body & Brain Yoga exercise, I don’t have stomach ache problem after doing the exercise three or four times each week in the first month. And thanks Master John & Sue who are always there to help and answer my questions. You will feel like being loved and cared. I have more energy and happier with better health. It is worth the money and time to try the Body & Brain Yoga!!

I have been going to classes for two years and have found them very beneficial! My body is firmer and my posture has improved as a result of attending classes regularly from 3 to 5 times a week. I like the variety of activities in the classes--it doesn't get boring! Master Kim, who runs the center, is very friendly and supportive.

Joined this yoga and Taichi place about 2 months ago and extremely happy about it. If you are looking for the yoga, which is more than just usual physical exercises and poses but more complex spiritual and balance yoga, and Taichi, this is your place. The master Join and Panida, his assistant, are warm great people and created welcome lovely environment in the studio. The classes are different on each day and for all different levels. I love the energy class on Friday, so much fun. Thank you guys! Olga.

Due to COVID-19, all our classes are on line through Zoom. It is great, you can take classes wherever you are. All you need is a laptop, desktop, iPad or a phone. Now the center is also open for in person instructions, please call for reservations since space is limited due to COVID-19.

Our center offers many kinds of class, Tai Chi, Yoga, meditation, stretching and vibration class which also includes free form dancing.

Our center manager is Master Chris. He knows a lot about how our body works & how to make it better. He gives many variations of the same exercise. The is is great for me since I have knee problems. I can choose a version that CAN do. I took a special class a few month ago, I am still using some of the exercises to build my arm muscles!

The center is doing lots of promotions. So more people can try out our classes!
