Rejuvenating Breathwork Class in Venice! 

Experience a rejuvenating breathwork class at Open in Venice. Enjoy amenities like lockers, a sauna, and a post-class tea by the water.

Breathwork Class

✅ Before you go
• Make SURE you get there on time because they lock the front doors to the studio the minute the class starts. 
• There’s a parking lot right across the street (though I recommend ride-sharing — more on that below)

💪 Pro tips
• I’d ride-share/uber over there if possible! after some of these classes it’s common to feel a little loopy and lightheaded (which isn’t a great state of mind to be in while driving)
• There are lockers where you can store your things before going into the studio (very convenient)
• There is also a sauna and a cold plunge experience that you should check out. 

Center Yourself with a Breathwork Class

It's this gorgeous yoga meditation breathwork studio right in the heart of Venice.

They have a unique variety of workout and meditation classes.

let's take a second to talk about how beautiful the studio is.

I come here every now and then when I need

a little reset and it hits the spot every time.

And also they serve tea after every single class
