You may also pay for a block of classes or a month in whatever amount you choose. If you are financially unable to donate right now, we still encourage you to attend as much as you want. Yoga is always important and especially now it helps us through a challenging time. If you are doing ok financially and would like to support us, we greatly appreciate your contribution as this helps us continue these classes.

Since the imposed shut down we are continuing our classes online in order to safely support our students. The online classes are going remarkably well and everyone feels happy to be "in the room together" in this physically distant time: Whether you're a regular practitioner or beginner we have something for you.

Ashtanga Yoga was the system taught by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. His teachings are being carried forth by his grandson R.Sharath Jois the director of KPJAYI in Mysore, South India, his daughter, Saraswathi Rangaswamy (also in Mysore) and his son Manju Jois in California. In a "Mysore" style class, students practice in a group class setting but are instructed on an individual basis.

Omkar108 Yoga is a centrally located, comfortable yoga shala (studio) with some of the best teachers in the world!
Jörgen Christiansson (Certified KPJAYI) has been my teacher for almost 13 years now and he's helped me develop my practice and change my life for the better.
His right hand, Matt Ryan (Authorized L2 KPJAYI) is also a phenomenal teacher.
And the list goes on with Gary, Bianca, Ayako and more. They are all amazing.
Omkar offers a variety of classes, but has a foundation in the traditional lineage of Ashtanga from Mysore, India.
Check it out! You'll feel right at home.

Plenty of street parking, and there is a parking lot behind the shala. I've never had issues with parking. There is a working bathroom, and a couple changing rooms. They usually have a person at the front desk to check you in and help with any payments, packages, questions, etc. There are mats that can be borrowed if you don't have one, or forget yours. There are blocks and props to use as needed. The practice room itself is gorgeous. Natural sunlight to keep the energy bright. Wood floors, high ceilings, and no mirrors, yay! The teachers are kind, patient, and extremely knowledgable and generous

My favorite place to practice. The feeling in the room wraps you in comfort while you get in those odd Ashtanga poses we love so much. Jorgen is an incredible teacher and you feel safe when he adjusts. It's really special here.

Jörgen is one of the most experienced Ashtanga yoga teachers in the world! His experience is clearly reflected in his closeness to the tradition, warm and clear teaching and the amazingly commited, open and welcoming atmosphere in the shala. I recommend Omkar108 wholeheartedly!

Omkar108 is amazing. From the second you park it starts to feel like walking into a little slice of India on a corner in CulverCity.
Chanting plays in the parking lot and the devotional corners in the shala are full of charm and an abundance of good energy. I have practiced with Jorgen for a very brief time, but I am a finicky enough practitioner that I know immediately when I have come across a teacher who I will trust with my practice.
Jorgen has been patient and supportive in helping me modify most of my practice around long-standing back problems and being able to go to Omkar108 has made

This studio is a true gem. The instructors are authentic in yoga and create a feel of community by celebrating holidays and having community events like movie nights. The kids yoga class is one the children can really pick up yoga lessons that could last a lifetime.

Jorgen is one of a few best ashtanga teachers if you are interested in ashtanga style. He has great personality & a kind heart. His retreat is relaxing & educational. Nice studio. Easy to find parking.

Super sacred space to cultivate a daily practice. Here I learned radical self-reliance and self-discipline. Jorgen creates a caring community of Ashtangis for support along the path. He gives strong, yet intuitively gentle adjustments and I feel constantly protected by his presence in the shala. I can feel Guruji in his words, and the respect he carries for the lineage is truly amazing. He always reminds his students to stay true to the tradition...practice, practice, practice, and all is coming..! Best teacher in the world, if I do say so myself...and I'm quite the Ashtangi traveler!

I have been responsible for taking a group of 5-6 kids to the children's yoga class at Omkar108 on Wednesdays for over a year now. I believe It's the perfect after school activity, as it helps compose the children from their long days, while learning patience, and gaining strength. Above all, Omkar108 is just an awesome place. Great environment, wonderful instructors!
