PUBLIC CLASS SCHEDULE
Looking for a yoga class in Southern California? Mind Body Badass offers multiple public yoga options every week—many of them donation-based and open to all! We believe in making yoga accessible, inclusive, and enjoyable for everyone who joins us.
Whether you’re a local or visiting from out of town, you’ll find us teaching against inspiring backdrops like Sunset Cliffs + the Point Loma Marina in San Diego, and inside LYV Fitness in Palm Desert. All are welcome: beginners, seasoned yogis, and everyone in between.
We currently offer donation-based outdoor yoga classes every week in San Diego (plus occasional pop-up events and seasonal flows), and weekly studio classes in Palm Desert. We offer a warm-hearted community and an approachable Hatha/Vinyasa fusion flow style—there’s nothing like practicing with our group of badass yogis!
Check the schedule below, sign up to reserve your spot, and come yoga with us!
WEEKLY SCHEDULE:
Donation Yoga at Sunset Cliffs – San Diego:
Breathe in the ocean air and flow with us at San Diego’s most iconic yoga spot. 🌊 These scenic, peaceful, community-focused yoga classes overlook the Pacific Ocean and are suitable for all levels—from first-timers to experienced yogis.
We have a rotating schedule of teachers who are part of the team at Mind Body Badass! You can find the instructor schedule under each class’ Eventbrite listing. These meetups were started by MBB creator Amy Baack (who still teaches regularly) in Spring 2021 and has expanded to become a must-do yoga experience in the San Diego community. Catch OG instructor Amy at least once a month, and join us weekly to experience some of the best yoga teachers in SD along with the ocean breeze, pelicans flying overhead, and a badass community!
Bring a yoga mat, a towel for underneath your mat (optional, the cliffs can get dusty), sun protection, water, and all your friends & fam.

We can’t wait to flow with you!
“Mind Body Badass is the best in SoCal for outdoor yoga. They are well organized and always on time. I’ve taken classes led by six of their instructors (Amy, Danielle, Laura, Amanda, Madi, Daisee) and they are all phenomenal at what they do. Highly recommend them for private sound baths as well.” – Liz G.
OUR MISSION:
At Mind Body Badass, we believe yoga should be accessible, empowering, and rooted in community—not limited to studio walls or high price tags. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to offer free, donation-optional yoga classes in some of the most beautiful outdoor spaces in San Diego since 2021. Whether you’re brand new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, our public classes invite you to move, breathe, and connect in ways that nourish your body and soul. No judgement, just joy.
This mission isn’t just a tagline—it’s something we’ve fought for. In 2024, our founder Amy Baack filed a First Amendment lawsuit against the City of San Diego after being threatened by city park rangers for teaching outdoor donation-based yoga at Sunset Cliffs. In June 2025, she won the case in the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, affirming the right for community-based, free-expression gatherings like yoga classes to exist in public parks. This victory helped pave the way for more wellness access for all, and cemented the future of yoga in San Diego.
When you join us on the mat, you’re not just doing yoga—you’re part of a real badass movement.
