I love this studio so much! Stacie has completely transformed my both mental and physical health through her Vinyasa classes. She is the perfect balance of making sure you are building muscle and working hard while incorperating mindfulness and calm. T (p.s. would LOVE more Stacie Vinyasas on the schedule!)

The Balanced Yogi is a gem of Santee. More than just a Yoga studio, The Balanced Yogi is a community of support, wellness, peace, and kinship. It has classes for every type of Yogi at every level and every style of teacher, from which to choose. I am so grateful to the owners Sam and Tyler, for building such an incredible space. I am as equally grateful to the incredible teachers with whom I get to practice every day.

I had the most fantastic yin yoga and sound frequency experience with Nikki W. I'm so grateful that Santee has The Balanced Yogi- a safe, clean space to re-center the self amid a supportive community.

Balanced Yogi is a truly special studio. From the first class, the space feels welcoming, grounding, and uplifting all at once. The community is genuine, the energy is supportive, and every class is built with intention. There’s a rare sense of balance between challenge and calm that leaves the body stronger and the mind clearer. The variety of offerings creates the perfect environment to explore, expand, and evolve your entire yoga practice. Heated vinyasa builds power and focus. Yin and sound healing offer rest and deep release. Slow flow restores the nervous system. This mix supports total well-being and brings unexpected transformation when different modalities are explored. The teaching team is outstanding—each instructor brings something different, yet equally valuable, to the experience: 🔥 Keshia L. delivers one of the most energizing and effective Sculpt classes anywhere. Every movement is purposeful. Every cue is on point. Expect to work, sweat, and feel accomplished. 💪 Noemi brings sharp focus and real encouragement. Her Sculpt classes are driven, clear, and empowering, with a presence that feels grounded and motivating. ✨ Mace leads with warmth and creativity. Her flows are smooth and rewarding, and her energy lifts the entire room. Positivity is a constant in every session. 🌸 Michell F. brings both fire and grace. Her Sculpt classes are dynamic, and her calming spirit stays with you long after the mat is rolled up. A joy to learn from and connect with. 🌙 Alyssa A. offers the ultimate reset in Sunday Slow Flow. Her guidance is gentle and steady, and the experience always feels like a gift to the nervous system and soul. Discovered through ClassPass, this studio quickly became a favorite. Even with a move coming up, return visits are already in mind. For anyone curious about getting back into yoga, deepening a practice, or just needing a place to land—say yes. Take the class. Book the spot. You’ll feel the difference. 💜

Love this place. The instructors are so kind and knowledgeable, it smells good and the lavender towel touch is my favorite. So many different kinds of class options.

Love this studio. All the instructors I've had are excellent!!! I feel very welcome and I get a great yogi workout. I did the 30 day trial and now have joined.I go 3 days a week and it's the best for my mind and body. Santee really needed this studio. Lots of classes to choose from.
