Arguably the most beautiful place to practice yoga in San Diego, Rancho Valencia’s new 1,000-square-foot yoga pavilion is a study in serenity and good taste. The open-air studio, made from gorgeous ipe (Brazilian hardwood), overlooks a stone-filled reflecting pool with a floating dock and sanctuary of native plants. Birdsong and the rustling of the wind serve as the soundtrack to your sun salutations. Not a downward dogger? There’s also a high-energy Zumba dance class. All classes are complimentary for overnight guests or anyone who has booked a treatment at the spa. 5921 Valencia Circle, Rancho Santa Fe
