The best decision I made was attending my first class at Barre District…read more Having a background in dance, but being horribly out of shape, I was intrigued by barre classes. I'd always been a little intimidated by group fitness classes full of women, but one day I just said "screw it!" and I attended my first (FREE!) class. I expected a tough, full-body workout, and I got it! But what I DIDN'T expect was such a warm, welcoming, judgement-free, and encouraging group of women. The owners, Nikki and Christina, will know your name the second you walk in the door and can always be found chatting with clients. I can talk all about the physical results I've experienced from barre classes (because they're there!), but it's so much more than that. It's a lifestyle studio. More importantly, I've gained confidence, I've found a workout that I look forward to doing, and I've gained some amazing friends. And, yeah, the first class is always free :)

During the class, she pushed us to our fullest potential (it's ok to shake!!) and provided us with an excellent workout that I will for sure feel for the next few days. Hoping to return soon!

Four years later, and Milwaukee power yoga is still just as legit. Especially as we move into the…read morecolder months, this place offers a brief almost mini tropical vacation from the brutal midwestern winters. It's a niche exercise facility obviously...you're basically coming there for hot yoga -- the regular class, slow flow, candlelight or beginner - all those are pretty self explanatory. They also do lots of workshops that are fun and generally on the weekends. Their sound system always seems on point- never too loud or too soft. Each teacher has their own style of playlist but I usually love all the music choices here. if you haven't take yoga classes (esp hot yoga classes) you may balk at prices but from going to other places, their prices are some of the most reasonable in the city. And if you're not sure and are new you can try the "10 days for $10" special where you can try out as many classes as you like in 10 daysfor 10$. It's hot in the studio (seems to go anywhere from the 80s to over 100)so bring a mat sized towel (and maybe a small one too)a long with your mat cuz you're probably gonna sweat! Don't have one? bring a beach towel - that works too! or rent or buy one from the studio. You can also rent or buy mats, and they sell other little accessories and water. Props for class are free for use. Only thing to remember is there's no showers-just changing rooms and bathrooms, and parking is pretty much street-only (with a lot of it being metered.) I'd highly recommend walking or biking. Namaste, yelpers! .

Pre - COVID : I had…read morenever been to this yoga facility, and won a 10 day free pass from a school raffle. Even in the dead of winter, my best friends and I made a commitment to attending hot yoga sessions. When we arrived, we walked into the facility, and there were areas to place our belongings and shoes. The room we did yoga in was large, and had mirrors lining the walls. The classes were packed, so spacing our mats was hard, but we made room. Shows how popular it was! We began with beginner sessions and moved up to harder classes. I had a great time and loved how calm I felt after! We also took classes that were simple flow and stretch. I have not returned since COVID but I did enjoy my time at this facility! The instructors were respectful of my space and gave good tips for modifications.

It can be intimidating in your first few classes when everyone there looks like a pro, but the lights are dim, the music loud, and you end up not even noticing that anyone else is in the room. And you will work! I always left shaky, with sore muscles in places I didn't even know I had. One of the toughest workout classes I've ever experienced, but I joined after how great I felt afterward.

I liked it so much that I got the unlimited monthly membership and I went every other day. Hot Yoga Milwaukee is an excellent community of yogis. Every time I decide to take a class, I leave the studio with an overall wellness feeling. All my stress, anxiety, any negative thoughts go away. Both locations are great, Brookfield is my favorite because parking is more convenient. During the winter months, it can get really crowded. I always try to arrive 15-10 minutes before to get in the room and have some time to get used to the heat. It can be a little overwhelming the first couple of times, but it gets so much better after that. All instructors are different, they will add their unique touch to the class, but it is always something positive. I can honestly say that I like them all. If you are thinking about trying this place, do take advantage of the intro special, it is worth it.

Some like it hot…read more I've been to this location a half-dozen times now and really enjoy it. My flexibility sucks and I've been told to do more stretching and yoga so this definitely fits the bill. The staff here is awesome, they are super friendly and welcoming to newcomings. Do yourself a favor and check out their First Timer notes on the website. The poses are repeated every time so you may want to google that before you go as well. As a guy I was a bit worried about feeling awkward but there were plenty of other guys attending as well. Some mornings they are super croweded so try to arrive early. Even with the high temp and and a bunch of sweaty people, the facility is super clean and doesn't have a gross smell to it.

After years spent at the same weight and same body type, I decided it was time to finally get in shape and build some muscle. Cream City Crossfit provides the most time efficient and effective workout I've ever done. Since May 2013, one hour spent at CCCF a few times a week has done more for my body than hours spent at the gym over the last few years. The coaches and members provide a support system and energy level that make me want to work out. The excitement of guessing the day's workout and knowing that I'll undoubtedly see results make the challenging workouts worth everything! Whether you're a seasoned weight lifter or you've never picked up a weight before, the coaches and members at CCCF can help anyone meet their fitness goals!

There was a major lack of A/C during the class which left me feeling dangerously overheated and dizzy more times than not after the class. The owners seemed very stressed and slightly in over their heads when opening, she's a bit catty and competes with you, which is not what I'm there for.

The studio has recently moved over the 222 E Eerie building on the garden level below Vita Physical Therapy. The new space is larger, brighter, and cooler! As far as Therese's instruction, my time with her has changed both my body (dramatically) and my entire way of approaching my relationship with my body. When I went to Therese, I was in a great deal of shoulder pain that is a side effect of working a lot on a computer. I've never had an issue with my shoulders again. AND my pilates practice has completely changed other physical practices improving my yoga practice by leaps and bounds. I've learned so much and gotten so much stronger, I can't recommend pilates or Therese enough.

I have talked several family members and friends into trying it and they all love it.
