This studio is so beautiful! Lots of light, gorgeous plants, and a lot of warmth in the space. Jenn is a fantastic studio owner who truly wants to grow a meaningful community through yoga. Her classes are vigorous but open to all yogis. Her teacher training is so thoughtfully created with a focus on social justice. Excellent studio!

Be prepared to reinvent your relationship with your yoga practice. Rebel Rise is probably the only yoga studio I have been to that pays respects to the ancient practice and has a huge emphasis on community, all the while deepening and strengthening one's practice. The community here is like no other; the staff and practitioners are genuinely kind and welcoming and there is little space for ego here. The instructors are highly knowledgeable about the asanas and will offer you new ways to engage in your practice, such as making minor adjustments or putting you into proper alignment that will improve your poses like no other. Through engagement, awareness, and reminders to honor your body where it's at (listening to what it needs vs thinking about what you should look like), the instructors guide you to a feeling of fulfillment and relief and an overall appreciation of the sacred temple you call your body. I highly recommend Rebel Rise Studios for anyone that is looking to go deeper into their practice and for anyone seeking that mind-body connection. Definitely give this place a try with an open beginner's mind.

Lovely studio with all the good vibes! The space is always clean and the class sizes are small, in a cozy way. Take Vinyasa with Jenn, it’s my fave. They also offer a variety of workshops on top of their ongoing weekly schedule, such as sound healing, tarot, and more. If you’re looking for a studio where you feel valued and always welcome as a client, regardless of skill level, this is the place to be. Plus, you’ll love the decor.

I honestly could not be happier to have found this studio! It's not only beautiful, but the teachers are amazing!! They really know what they are teaching, so you feel seen and safe in your practice.
No matter if you are a beginner or have been doing yoga for years, you'll feel you fit right in, I certainly felt that way after moving to San Jose. I felt right at home at Rebel.

If you're questioning joining Rebel...DO IT. My Rebel Yoga and Strength classes are the best part of my day. Seriously, I look forward to them all day long. The community is like nothing else I've ever experienced. All of the coaches and especially Jenn, the owner, truly care about each member and look out for us. At Rebel you get a good sweat, feel stronger than ever, and make lots of new friends along the way.

Honestly, I had previously been struggling getting myself to enjoy working out and being healthy again, but Rebel Rise with the instructors and the community sparked my passion again! I genuinely look forward to each workout, whether it’s a killer strength class or a yoga class. Each class is always centered around some sort of focus, which makes the classes feel even more personalized. I can’t imagine ever finding another community so supportive of each other’s goals!

There's nothing I'd rather do than work out with these two rebels. Casey’s energy is contagious, and she will get you to do things you had no idea you could do (which is my favorite part), but her workouts are designed for all levels. Jenn has made me understand and connect with my body and my breath in ways that I never thought possible. She has this incredible way of giving everyone individualized yogi attention even in a huge class. Casey and Jenn are the best kind of community builders, and I'm already so excited for their next class.

Since training with Casey I've seen a huge improvement in the way I look and feel. In her bootcamp-style workouts, Casey incorporates a multitude of exercises, targeting each individual muscle group while still integrating a ton of endurance training. When I first started taking Jenn's yoga class I was less than a beginner. The minute I walked into class and laid down my mat, I felt at ease immediately. Her classes are quick-paced, extremely challenging, and always changing. These ladies embody self-love, self-appreciation, and self-care. The work they do is so incredibly powerful and meaningful to so many. They motivate me every single day to reach higher, push harder, and dream bigger.

Casey and Jenn are awesome instructors! They make working out challenging, motivating, and fun! They have such good energy when they teach classes that really helps to keep you engaged, focused, and sometimes laugh while trying to catch your breath. I have known these two for over a year now and can say if you are bored of the basic workouts you are doing, give Rebel Rise a chance to show you how to really get a good workout and have fun doing it.

If you enjoy a challenging workout and a good yoga flow all while smiling and making awesome new friends, Rebel Rise Studios is for you. Casey and Jenn are all about building community through fitness. They are amazing at catering to all levels--ALL levels--so everyone feels welcomed. Their sense of humor and genuine investment in your experience makes for one hour, or so, well spent.

Jenn and Casey provide such a great and challenging workout that makes you feel strong and empowered. Casey's energy, her knowledge and the way she designs her workouts allow you to push yourself to what you believe is your limit and then somehow, you are able to do a little more than that. Jenn's yoga is designed to make you feel centered, focused, and most of all, you feel accepted in practicing yoga at whatever level you are. Jenn and Casey have created a space for everyone to have the chance to feel good about themselves and feel comfortable, challenged and empowered.
