This studio is fantastic! Pam is so great and positive in everyway. She is always in a great mood with a huge smile! I feel so great after her class. One of the best things about this class is the way she helps you with your pose so your getting the maximum benefit from the class. If your looking for a great enviorment with a great workout, this is for you. I would recommend this class for anyone and everyone, its a must!

Great studio! I'm in town for business and was looking for a place to take a drop in class - glad I stumbled onto this one! Wonderful studio - really welcoming (they didn't rent me a yoga mat - they let me borrow one). I had never taken a heated yoga class before but it was amazing, the instructor was excellent, she even gently corrected me (which I really like).

I had tried another yoga studio the day before and it wasnt for me. So, I tried this one.. I loved the room, it was inviting, comfortable and had a positive energy. The class (slow flow) was the perfect amount of challenging, yet not so demanding I wouldnt commit. I would! I LOVED IT. I worked up a sweat, was able to focus on the poses, take it all in to learn, and felt great afterwards.
I was sore, but only in a good way. I knew I worked out, but could totally still move and function the next day! The after effects lasted well after the class. I would do it 4 times a week, if they offered this beginning class more often. So, until I feel more ready to take on an intermediate class, I unfortunately am going to other studios with the same time frame that offer beginner classes. Although, I would stick with this one if it was offered more than on Monday. The instructor, Pamela made me feel welcome and was very nice. For the first time I felt like I knew what all the fuss was about with Yoga. I am now loving it also! Fellow students were also very welcoming and nice. I cant wait to go back! -

Honestly the BEST yoga class I have ever been to.
I live in Los Angeles, but grew up in Petaluma. Usually when I am home it is only for a day or two, but I try my hardest to make it to Pamela's Power Yoga. It has now become my first priority of "things I need to do while home"
I have taken a lot of yoga classes, and this tops them all. Pamela's workout is the perfect blend of strength, meditation, relaxation, and pushing yourself to the limits. She does poses that I have never seen in a power vinyasa class. I used to be a gymnast and always have trouble actually stretching my muscles to their capacity, and boy did her class do it!!! I was sore for 3 days!!
The 90 minutes focuses on all areas of the body, so you literally feel strong, toned, accomplished, and purified when you leave. It makes you feel great for the entire day.
And its not even that expensive. $13 for a drop in class!
This class is not for beginners, but for all your Petaluma yogi's out there, get to Pam's workout. -

This is a special place I found by accident one day while visiting Petaluma. It's in an exquisite old building so the studio has wonderful high ceilings and polished dark wood floors. The teacher and owner Pamela was sublime. Challenging enough for experienced yoginis, yet peaceful and centering. A wonderful mixed-level class. I really recommend checking this spot out to anyone.

This is a wonderfully welcoming, tranquil and engaging yoga studio. Friendly staff and members. I am relatively new to yoga and tend to be nervous to try a new class by myself, but it was a great experience and would recommend Renew Yoga to anyone who is thinking of joining.

I decided to come in for some personal training work and I have been working for 2 months with Terri Rivero: She is amazing. She is always positive, has taught me good posture, stretching and most important created a healthy exercise habit I never thought I would have! Money well spent.

I was not into yoga until I came to this studio and dropped in on a session of Power Yoga with Pamela. She is an incredible teacher, patient, wise, warm, and accepting, without too much hardcore New Age stuff - every class ends with a short meditation and some chanting, but it's really relaxing and not dogmatic. The studio offers regular yoga and "hot" yoga in a 90 degree room - believe it or not, the hot stuff is really wonderful. I am now really into yoga and the incredible feeling of strength, peace, and power it gives me. And it's a GREAT workout - hello, upper back muscles! Try it once - the first class is free - and you'll be hooked.

Amy Wolff teaches Om Kids Yoga at Maldonado's Renew. Amy has a gift for working with children. Her voice is sweet, gentle and kind. She is very welcoming to the children and really shows a love for teaching yoga to them. The Om Yoga class is fun, creative, challenging and so worth getting to by 9:15am on a Saturday morning. Amy uses story as a way to engage the children and integrates the poses into the theme of the day. For example: For the class that fell on Halloween day, Amy talked with the children about facing their fears.... Makes sense that this be a conversation on the scariest day of the year. The poses that she had them do were ones that we do not do in our everyday life; head stands and back bends. I can tell that Amy is very thoughtful in her lessons. My child always leaves with a positive outlook for her day and she shares her class experiences for many days after. Amy is awesome! The classes are the right price too. I am so happy that we found Maldonado's Renew and Amy Wolff!

This is a great studio for many reasons. The convenience (parking, class schedule, etc) is a plus. The studio itself is clean and spacious...hardwood floors, high ceilings, etc. That being said, the best thing about this studio is the class itself. The classes are GREAT. They are hot (90 degrees) but not bikram. It is a great power yoga with a ton of stretching at the end. I think it is the best workout and I am totally addicted! I recently moved to Petaluma and this studio is one of the reasons that the transition has been so smooth. :) Pam (the owner) is a terrific teacher and Elizabeth is awesome as well. I highly recommend!! :) (i do wish it had childcare)

You're family here - a very deep practice for people of all levels. The prices are really fair. I always leave feeling like I've been to the spa, the therapist and the hairdresser all wrapped in one.
