So far I have attended two "Gentle Yoga' classes by two different instructors at this studio. The first class was with Instructor Amy. First, she is very welcoming when you walk in the door, greeting you with a smile and making you feel comfortable right off the bat. I told her I really did not have a lot of experience with Yoga. She said I came to the right class! I brought a mat, but she shared a mat the studio offered that had more cushion and traction so I wouldn't slip. There were bins and hangers for coats and it was very clean. The rectangular yoga room is big, dim, and calming. There were candles lit and the perfect background "Yoga" music playing, blankets, bands, and blocks. When we got started, Amy had the perfect, calming voice. One that soothes and makes you feel quite relaxed. She guided the class through the poses, which was helpful for me to see. She also shared where I might be feeling the stretch, or shaking, which I was glad was normal. The class lasted an hour and I felt so amazing when it was done!
The second class, I had instructor Gwen. She is her own unique personality. I really enjoyed, her too. She has a great playlist of music, she likes to light several candles down the middle of the room for relaxation and maybe a focus point throughout instruction. She was very sweet and offered correction when necessary. I liked that because I was new and wanted to be sure I was doing the poses correctly without hurting myself. I felt her to be very kind-hearted and approachable. Both classes were fantastic!!!!
I'm not quite sure where the random "one star" review came from, but I know this is a fantastic studio with wonderful people who have a purpose of benefiting the health of others. I really appreciated the encouragement during both sessions and allowing me a free "first- timer" class.
Excellent studio and would highly recommend! Keep up the great work!!!
