I'm a self proclaimed barre addict, so I've only tried barre classes here. This is a very lululemon heavy studio, so it is great if you are already in barre shape (and know how to do the moves). Some of the instructors are so great, but many others are just...okay. I feel like I get a great workout here about 40% of the time, but when I have just an okay instructor, the classes feel rushed and unplanned. The studio itself is on the second floor and is on the small side - it gets very cramped during busy times. They have bathrooms (with toiletries) and small cubbies for your things.

Been here on classpass. I've never taken yoga classes here, only barre. The barre classes are challenging and hit all of your body parts, but the barre studio has carpet which isn't the best. The instructors here just aren't friendly though, and the classes get repetitive. The last class I took here the teacher just looked at herself in the mirror and did her workout, kind of ignoring us.

Thankful for this donation based yoga studio. I started coming here when I first got into running And needed more stretching. Instructors are helpful and easy to understand. I always come out feeling relaxed and peaceful.

The workout seems super harmless. It seems like typical girly stuff where you just look cute and only move your body minimally and never sweat.
All of the above are true, except that you're workout is actually killler. LACTIC ACID CENTRAL. I can feel my body sculpting and toning into the next Adriana Lima. (not really but ya know, reach for the moon)
The excerices have a lot of small, easy movements, but its the repetition that makes it burn. You start with arms, move onto legs, onto da booty, end with abs. Recommendation for studio: change up the series. Each time seems to be essentially the same with minor variations and so-so music and instructors don't have their individual flare.
I've done ballet for many years, but don't expect a dance-like workout here. The only things that make it ballet-ish are the barre that you do some non-dance stuff on and you do some pliees.
The instructors are hit or miss. As you can imagine, this is the most uppity studio ever with every girl trying to get her sock bun perfect, etc. Just do your thing and you'll enjoy.
