I had the most incredible private sound bath experience! It was healing and peaceful, for both me and my 13 year old. The environment had a great energy that immediately put me at ease. The teacher was intuitive and with her instruments and the sound resonated in my body in a powerful way. I felt completely restored afterwards. Highly recommend it!

I have taken Yoga classes from Ruby, attended full moon sound baths, and most recently attended the equinox healing sound bath journey. Ruby is an incredible instructor and facilitator. My partner went with me to his first equinox soundbath experience on Sunday. He said he never can quite get that relaxed, and it had a profound therapeutic impact on his back pain.

Thank you, Ruby! 💫🩵💫

I am so grateful for Ruby Koa’s Resonance Renewal New Moon Sound-Healing retreat on August 24, 2025. Thank you, Ruby for your presence, gentle guidance, intuitive wisdom and care. I especially appreciate your encouragement to tune into and follow our own inner guidance throughout the retreat. I received such powerful insights and feel deeply nourished, renewed and awake. While I have experienced many sound healing journeys, this was my first experience including gongs. I experienced the resonance of these powerful instruments as deeply grounding and transformational. I am so very grateful for the safe, solid energetic container Reiki Master, Saralee Sky provided. I celebrate you, Ruby, for your wisdom in receiving optimum support for the powerful, transformational work you do.

Ruby is invested in making a quality experience. I attended her big fall equinox reset this year for my birthday, and loved the pace of the class! The guided meditation, setting intent, and movements made the sound bath more meaningful. I can tell a lot of time and thought goes into creating her classes/treatments. Thank you for making my birthday special!

As an avid seeker and practitioner of holistic well-being and spiritual growth, I am delighted to share my amazing experience with a truly gifted yoga teacher and sound healer who has profoundly impacted my journey towards balance and self-discovery.

Ruby offers a diverse array of events throughout the year, catering to the unique and evolving needs of our diverse community. Ruby’s specialization in women's wellness, the profound wisdom of the zodiac, the energizing practice of Kundalini yoga, and the mesmerizing resonance of the gong creates a rich tapestry of offerings that speak to individuals of all ages and levels of experience.

What sets Ruby apart is not only her expertise in yoga and sound, but also her intuitive ability to create a nurturing and inclusive space for all who seek to explore these transformative modalities. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or a curious newcomer, Ruby’s events are thoughtfully designed to meet you exactly where you are on your personal journey.

The integration of the zodiac, hindu deities, crystals and more into Ruby’s offerings adds an enchanting dimension, empowering participants with new awareness to harness the fascinating energies of the universe.

Ruby’s mastery of Kundalini yoga is truly inspiring, guiding participants through dynamic kriyas, breathwork, and meditation to unlock the boundless potential of the body, mind, and spirit. Ruby’s approach is both gentle and empowering, allowing individuals to explore the depths of their inner resilience and vitality.

And when it comes to the mesmerizing gong baths, Ruby's skillful orchestration of sound and vibration creates an immersive experience that transcends the ordinary. The ethereal tones of the gong resonate through every cell, inviting a state of deep relaxation, inner harmony, and energetic realignment.

What truly stands out about Ruby is her unwavering commitment to creating a safe and supportive environment for all, infusing each event with compassion, wisdom, and an authentic desire to uplift and empower every participant. She even provides tea and snacks most of the time, she's so thoughtful.

For anyone seeking an enriching journey of self-discovery, holistic wellness, and spiritual expansion, I wholeheartedly recommend immersing yourself in the teachings of this remarkable yoga and sound healer. Ruby’s events are a beacon of light, guiding you to embrace the fullness of your being and for reaching your greatest potential for your best life ever.

As a leukemia survivor and stem cell transplant recipient, myself and every single one of my 37 trillion cells can attest to effectiveness of Ruby's offerings because WE TRULY FEEL WAY BETTER!

I always search for the most earthy and cosmic gathering spots when I ever I move to a new city. This is one of those main spots here in Bellingham but it is also one of the most professional and kind as well. Some of the best memories I shall keep from Bellingham happened here. Give it a try.

During COVID, all my routines have changed, except my yoga practice. Inspire Yoga Studio has made it easy for me to continue my practice at home through their online virtual classes. It's been great to continue that connection, chatting with Ruby and fellow classmates before and after the virtual session. Plus, working from home can make it hard to set boundaries, but registering for a virtual session makes me hold myself accountable to wrap up work and roll out my mat. It provides me with something to look forward to. For those of us feeling like we are "on Zoom calls all day" this is nothing like a regular Zoom meeting. No headsets needed and you are active and moving, plus able to get guidance and feedback from the instructor. Added bonus? My new favorite shavasana is legs up on the couch. These virtual classes are great! I highly recommend attending and it also helps support a local business during this hard time. Keeps me active, gives me something to look forward to, no extra time for travel to and from the studio, supports a studio I care about..it's a win win win!

I’ve been a student of Ruby’s for more than 10 years. Ruby has a teaching method that I find very inspiring. I’m not an exceptionally fit person nor am I an athlete. I’m just an average older guy who wants to stay limber and flexible as I age . Ruby helps me do just that. Her teaching method makes me feel very comfortable and gives me confidence that I can do the poses she is demonstrating. Her classes vary in their routine from week to week so it’s never exactly the same. She gives you an opportunity to work on different muscles and joints each class. She goes at a pace that you can keep up with. Everything she demonstrates is doable, even for a person past their prime. Over the years I’ve taken all of Ruby’s classes and they’re all good. I learn something new each time I go and they never grow stale. I can’t say enough good things about her. She is a great teacher and an exceptional human being. I strongly recommend her classes to anyone who is looking for a great yoga experience. Her classes are a combination of athleticism, spiritualism and inspiration. It’s a great way to practice yoga. Lastly, her classes are fun and enjoyable and I always feel better after her class than I did before I started.

Quality classes for a reasonable price! Inspire has many options for class types from restorative beginners to advanced yoga classes. I have taken 2 different types of classes: 'Flow and Restore' with Liz who does a wonderful job of telling a story while she's instructing the class; and 'Yoga Power Hour' with Ruby. As an advanced instructor, Ruby gives alternative poses if something isn't working for you. Most yoga classes are 1.5 hours long and I have a very busy schedule -- so I was in and out in an hour! Inspire Studio just installed a new floor too. Punch card options in case you can't make it every week. Highly recommend.

The sound meditation (December 22, 2017) was a wonderful experience for me. Not only did Ruby provide amazing sounds through the crystal bowls, gongs and more, she also prepared the participants with yoga exercises for full relaxation in order to be open as much as possible to the healing sounds. Before concluding the evening, she took time to support people returning to their bodies and grounding before leaving. As a colleague and friend, I was very impressed and I look forward to attending more.

I am a professional photographer, who routinely rents various studio spaces in Portland, Seattle, and Bellingham...and I have to say this is one of my very favorites for both natural light and for those times when I am bringing my own equipment. The light, the brick walls, the spacious, clean and welcoming environment (along with nice bathroom facilities and changing areas) is perfect. It's also on the second story, so you have privacy from street traffic. Ruby is wonderful to work with, providing a simple and clear contract with competitive rates. LOVE this studio space!!

Inspire Yoga Studio, inspired in me the opportunity to slow down with Molly's Restorative Yoga, she has such a calm connection to self awareness and a compassionate teaching style I was immediately at ease, and felt so welcomed in to the gorgeous space that owner Ruby has opened up to the community.
I have also taken a yoga workshop and attended Inspire's New Year Power Yoga class with Ruby - what a great balance of dedication to her practice and a guided well planned session of interwoven sun salutations, personal intentions to consider, and connections to each and every student.
I highly recommend Inspire as a place for your yoga practice, a place for your heart to be lifted and your spirit to be nourished.
