yoga for everybody and every body.

our story

One Life Yoga was founded in October 2017 by Reza Samadi. Lizzie Pereira (now Samadi) joined the team in 2018 and the rest is history. Now husband and wife, they have built a studio that is dedicated to the Pasadena community, to the broad study of yoga, mindfulness and more.

Our style and philosophy is an integrated, non-dogmatic expression of yoga.

We are influenced by a broad study of yoga practice and philosophy rooted in tradition while integrating movement science and modern understanding of anatomy and physiology.

Our inspiration is here and now, the cycles of life, nature and the elements, and the modern condition.

We follow an "all of the above" approach - physical practice drawn from Hatha, Vinyasa, and Yin, together with the benefit of breath, meditation and lifestyle - and invite you to enter from any point you like: physical, spiritual or pure curiosity.

We are redefining what it means to be a community yoga studio. Each teacher brings their own unique background and education to the mat and we are proud of that.

For us, there is no “one-size-fits-all”, there is no "perfect" expression. Our path is that which avoids harm, embraces our uniqueness and prolongs a healthy, vibrant life.

At OLY we are committed to creating a clean, warm and inviting space for your practice while also serving as a community gathering place and supporting a lifestyle inspired by our experience of Yoga.
