My home away from home, you will immediately feel like family and welcomed with open arms and…read morehearts. This yoga studio has completely changed my life and I am eternally grateful for it. I was never a "yogi" I more identified with "froyo" (& ABSOLUTELY YES, they can exist together!) I live in a bigger body, I think way out the box, I dress "weird", lick toads, love rocks. -TLDR she's a hippie y'all. So, Yoga to me was such a stretch (no pun intended this time) but after my first few classes (2-3 tops) I was completely hooked and they could never be rid of me! i practiced religiously, with no "goal" in sight, just a "this feels right"' so go with it feeling. Maybe... 2-3 years after practicing weekly (I believe I had joined the Karma yogi program by this point) and Shantelle asked me when I was just going to doYoga Teacher Training already! Lol love this woman! I told her my situation and the only thing "in the way" was unsteady finances. She said "well, have you applied for our tuition program?" (Definitely got the words wrong but that's how it came across lol. It helped EXPONENTIALLY and I was able to complete YTT and have been an instructor of all things that center your focus on slowing down, teach what you need right? WYTLDR: From a non yoga person, to perhaps another. Let this be your new safe space to expand.

To keep it short and sweet, this is a must try stop if you want to get into the clean eating in the…read moretri-parish area. As a newbie to juicing and healthy food options, this was a wonderful experience to me. One thing you have to keep in mind is that all these products are 100% fresh so you will taste everything. The ocean commotion has cucumbers, apples, pineapples, and mint in it, and I tasted ALL of them. The happy baby was also a great smoothie once mangos were added to it. With just one experience, I prefer them over smoothie king because of the fresher options. The lady, who I assume is the owner, was awesome. She helped me pick my drink options, gave me reasons of why those ingredients were added together, and introduced me to the juicing program flyer (not pictured). I will definitely be back for $5 Fridays.

I've been trying out a lot of different gyms on class pass and I really like the Pilates loft! I've…read moretried a few different classes and all of the teachers are so understanding! The loft is located upstairs (haha get it- loft) and there is only a class or two going st a time. I really love the tower/reformer class. With only 4-5 students (or less) the teachers can be super hands on. I did a workout with me and one other student who was studying to become a Pilates teacher and we both got a frat workouts with the modifications given. I would go to this gym again and try out some of their other classes. January a warning. When you fill out the paper work it asks you if you are over 20 pounds.

I am definitely glad I came to learn my basics here. I live in Houston and coming back to my…read moreregular gym just wasn't as fun or intense. I went to the 24hrfitness right by my house and did my normal routine and it was so lame! I didn't have any cool people to talk to... my routine seemed insanely boring and since I've gotten much stronger post CrossFit... the routine seemed so easy. I miss being challenged by the WOD's they created. I am going to check out some CrossFit gyms around Houston so I can keep up with my workouts but they're all much more expensive and restrict the amount of days I get to go. The cheapest option I have found is ~140 with a minimum of 3 months only two times a week. LAME! I wish I could go back to CrossFit Houma.. :(

Working with Bryan and his staff has really improved my lifting technique. When I first met Bryan,…read moreI explained to him that I really did not know much about lifting, having never been in any type of sport. He patiently showed me step by step exactly how to improve each lift. It took a few months but I began to see gains pretty quickly. Even though I know I need to improve much I have never felt more confident about lifting weight in the gym. I have also continuously hit new personal milestones over the past six months. I have also benefited from advice about how to tweak my diet from both Junco and Bryan. I have really enjoyed working out at Houma Cross Fit. It seems that every time I go I learn something new. My new favorite is what I call the Houma Iditarod. It's pretty entertaining to watch! If you want to work out in a positive environment I would give Cross Fit Houma a try

Okay so I've been coming here for almost a year so I feel like I can do an honest review. I'll…read morestart with the good news first. I have real abs now for the first time! It's a great workout to build your core and the instructors are very patient and knowledgeable. Bad news is that besides the already expensive pricing their cancellation policy is insane. You have to cancel a class 12 hours in advance in order to not be charged. I take classes at 6am so there's no way I know before 6pm the prior day if something may come up that requires me to cancel. So paying over $200 a month plus all these $10/$15 dollars charges whenever you may have to miss makes the pricing outlandish to me. Then, if you decide maybe I'll just book later in case something comes up there's always a waitlist. A lose/lose. Overall, a really great core workout though but just be weary on if you need to miss a class

I found Mangolia Yoga Studio from a Google search of yoga studios around my hotel. I signed up for…read morethe Warm Vinyasa Flow class on Sunday at 10am. I arrived around 15 minutes prior to class so that I could get situated. I met Giselle, who was the instructor of the class, also helped to check me in and acquaint myself with the studio. The studio was beautiful. Even before I walked into the studio I noticed the lovely glass mural of the yogini in camel pose. Everything felt intentionally placed. The lounge area made the place feel warm and inviting. There was plenty of cubbies. The practice space was warm and toasty when I walked in. I got a great sweat through the class, but I didn't find it unbearable. It certainly didn't get to Bikram temperature, which is around 105 degrees. I loved how Giselle's class was like a slow flow. You don't have to move quickly and dynamically in vinyasa to feel like you're putting in the work. You can hold the asanas for several breaths and still feel challenged especially when you're activating every muscle in your body. Giselle offered functional cues and many modifications, which was awesome because it makes the poses accessible for everyone. I would highly recommend her class for all-levels.

I was once an avid student and supporter of Ajax and Magnolia Yoga studio. I even considered taking…read moretheir teacher certification program. It was a place of refuge and healing for the many stressors of life at the time. I had gone to City Hall to advocate for funding for the studio, had written an article about the merits of the studio and even defended Ajax when family members told me she seems very narcissistic. Unfortunately one evening I got to class in the nick of time but the app would not accept my payment because class had technically already started. I was paying with my Doordash Visa card. I went home and received a text from Ajax asking for my payment. I apologized and explained what happened and offered to bring her cash or Zelle her the next morning. She told me that I wouldn't do this at any other business and that it was unacceptable etc. I felt like I was being shamed for something that was an honest mishap. At the time an individual class was only $16. I explained that I was not trying to get over on her but still I was shamed and made to feel like I was somehow turning against her for trying to explain and defend myself. She showed zero understanding, zero compassion. The comments in other reviews about her toxic and egoic behavior ring true. As much as I loved the studio and some of the instructors, and wanted to support a Black owned studio I no longer desire to go. Go at your own risk. At this point, her reputation for the shitty treatment of people proceeds her.

The place is kept very clean, there are a ton of variations of climbs to do, whether it's your first time or you're a professional. The climbing community is very welcoming and supportive, so you feel so encouraged to keep trying. One of the employees hosted a free "Bouldering 101" class for about 15-20 minutes to give helpful tips and information. Amenities include: multiple walls with climbing combinations, matts all around in case you fall, shoes (to rent if you don't have your own, you have to use specific shoes), free cubbies for your stuff, water dispenser, and a training room. 12/10, I will be back.
