Best yoga in the desert by far. April and her team give quality classes with personalized instructions that never fail to make us feel better throughout the day. We're so lucky to have Yoga Central!

April and all her yoga teachers are amazing! If you want an all encompassing yoga class, Yoga Central is the place to go!
I've taken a lot of yoga classes from different schools and none of them compare to April's classes - you have to try a class to really know what I am saying!

Yoga Central is an amazing experience for yoga. From beginner to advanced, all levels are offered and supported. Doing yoga outside on the grass in the fresh air elevates yoga to a higher level. I have enjoyed the yoga classes at yoga central for years.

Whenever I visit the desert, I always prioritize taking one of April's classes. From the moment I roll out my yoga mat, I instantly feel at ease. April's guidance, instruction, and playlist, combined with the serene surroundings of nature, create an experience of pure perfection. In my 25+ years of practicing yoga, I can confidently say that April is the best instructor I've ever had.

What a beautiful way to start a day, especially when on vacation! April is a great instructor, provides assurance and enough direction for someone less experienced but also gives enough of a challenge for someone regular.

April’s morning flow was lovely. She crafts a beautiful flow and gives student plenty of options to practice as strong or lightly for each individuals body on that day. She gives wonderful adjustments and cues to help everyone get the most out of the practice. Practicing on the lawn, surrounded by the trees in the sunshine is also a bonus for the practice. Whenever I am in Palm Springs I love to pop into her class. I am planning to check out her videos so I can practice with her at home. Thanks again for a great class! Kathy from Seattle

While visiting Palm Springs, I was delighted to discover Anthony’s yoga class. He is a gifted and very present teacher, and his class was very grounding and also created a sense of energy and vitality. Would absolutely join this studio if I lived down here. Thank you, Anthony.

For the last 5-6 years, I have followed April’s yoga magic wherever she goes. Always well prepared, with no two classes ever alike, she takes you on a journey where you feel safe and supported. She has always shared her technical knowledge so I feel that I have improved in my practice without compromising safety. She is a natural at what she does and I’m grateful that this Valley is her home!

April (instructor) has a natural gift and talent for teaching yoga. Her cues are given at the exact appropriate time; she encourages everyone to listen to their bodies and to be kind and grateful for all that they do for us each and every day. I've been absent for far too long, but this was a gentle reminder that her classes are good for my body and good for my head. Thank you. I loved the class.

I find April and her fellow instructors to be a breath of fresh air in my life. They are knowledgeable, compassionate and have helped me grow tremendously both physically and psychologically over the last several years. Every time I go to a class I am more relaxed, renewed and grateful.

I love this studio. I really didn't know how to practice yoga properly before I started at Yoga Central. So, I wasn't getting the most out of the time and money I was investing in yoga. Instructors April, Autumn, and Anthony have definitely changed that, and now I'm not only enjoying yoga more than ever, I'm also seeing and feeling the benefits of regular yoga practice. I think it's made my golf and tennis better, as well. I'm always impressed at how each and every class incorporates different poses and flows to keep it fresh. I've learned how to breathe through the strain and at the end, shavasana is usually the best I will feel all day. Thank you all, and I'll see you soon!

Just what I needed! I have been wanting to get back into a yoga practice lately after having not done much over the past years. It was such a good way to ease back in, to really be gentle with my body. April created such a safe and nurturing space where I felt empowered to show up, to support my body in the way it needed, and also receive the emotional support of feeling safe to do things my own way. I can’t wait to do this class over and over again!

Yoga Central has been my yoga home for over 10 years. April's classes are always thoughtful and supportive uniquely designed for each day. She is able to welcome the newcomers and challenge seasoned yoga practitioners in the same class. Her unique use of strengthening, flexibility, and introspection blend the body, mind, and spirit experience in each class. Thank you, April for being an important part of my yoga experience!

I've had the privilege of attending both April and Anthony's classes-after a gruelling work year, I was in desperate need of some defrag. Neither class disappointed-they were some of the best yoga experiences I've ever had (and I've had a lot). Feel very grateful to get to share in this community.

April's awareness of true yoga practice, the energy of the group and the field energy of the setting created a wonderful experience. I'm planning on coming back every time I'm in the desert to make these outdoor peaceful settings with true yoga teachings part of the mission to increase our spirit, health, and gratitude.

April Jones is a master of her art, craft, community. If you want to deepen your yoga practice, check out Yoga Central. I’ve been lucky enough to learn from many yogis over the years, and so can say without hesitation that she’s special. Her knowledge of anatomy, her intuition, cueing, playlist all…take you there. Check it out - you won’t be sorry.

We stayed at the Hyatt next door and took the Slow Jam class with April on a Friday evening. Instead of the indoor studio in the lobby of the Renaissance, we were able to go to the peaceful olive grove at the far end of the resort. April had mats and blocks available and the class focused on deep stretching. Her yoga instruction was perfect -- she is so calm and gives great elaboration with each movement. We're not regular yogis -- we just wanted something peaceful to do to relax and this was perfect. 10/10 would recommend.

I love this studio. The outdoor setting adds so much to my yoga practice - I never want to go back inside a studio again. Freedom to fully move in every position without whacking or getting whacked by the person next to you. Plus birds and breeze and moonrises. April's classes are always challenging, intuitive, and surprising. I'm never bored and I never quite know what's coming next -- and importantly, I can see and feel myself getting stronger and deeper into the poses. Plus the studio offers very cool one-off events like yoga hikes, which has been a great way for me to get to know my community. If you love yoga and you love the outdoors this is a no-brainer...

The only thing missing in this audio is pretense and snobbery!
Instead you’ll find a very clean, professionally run and very welcoming atmosphere. Whether a beginner or experienced Yogi all ages and levels feel welcome. The teachers are good at reading the room and gently assisting the students that need to adjust things. I really appreciate this kind of professionalism in teachers so that I can safely get the most out of my practice and leave feeling stronger instead of later hurting.
Definitely give yoga central try!
