I had been coming to Ojas Yoga Center since its opening in 2010, including variety of wonderful events that takes place here. It's hard to find a better yoga instructor than Nicole, but other instructors are good as well. It's a real jewel here in El Cerrito, thank you so much, Nicole, for creating this sanctuary!

I really look forward to class every week, it is very special ...the place pristine and peaceful! I feel peaceful and serene when I walk out the door. AND Making new friends is wonderful !

I studied Integral yoga in its many forms and expressions for almost 50 years. I have watched the popularity of yoga grow over the years however until I discovered Ojas I was always disappointed at what passed for yoga. It was merely taught as a form of exercise with no substantive background or context, without any attempt to delve deeper into meanings or to help reveal the heart center of it all. Nicole so lovingly and with deep joy and passion brings together all forms of yoga with the most important ingredient of all - love! With complete lack of judgement, with open arms to all, she has created a beautiful sacred space which is also fun. Congratulations Nicole and Ojas - may this be just the beginning!! Om shanti shanti shanti, Love, Janaki

there are so many wonderful aspects of ojas yoga center! it really is such a gem- and not enough people know of it's treasures. Tucked up above the plaza, it's a bit of secret, but you are lucky to have found it. i've been both a teacher and student at ojas, and every time i am grateful for and inspired by the sanctuary space, the authenticity of the practices and the dedication of the students. founder and owner, nicole becker has cultivated something very wonderful.
