Within about a week of returning home, I received a hand written thank-you note from the studio. What an impression! I'll definitely be back next time I'm swinging through town.

I can't believe this is their first review, but I suppose if you didn't know about The Yoga Place,…read moreyou'd probably never find it. However, hidden upstairs in the City Square Building on Main Street is a beautiful studio that is guaranteed to change the way you look at yoga. While not a stranger to yoga, the Iyengar method is radically different from any way that I've been taught. From the very first class, you'll actually _feel_ how it's different. Rather than emphasizing flexibility as the #1 most important goal, the Iyengar method teaches proper alignment and utilizes various props throughout the class. It teaches balance and how to use your muscles to their full potential so that you have lifelong fitness and health. It also teaches the deeply calming aspects of yoga...how certain poses can alleviate afflictions, help with insomnia and have restorative qualities. Before your first class, you will be asked to fill out a medical history sheet. I've never had to do this for any fitness class, and I truly wish that I would have! When the instructor knows of your injuries, ailments and limitations, they are able to tailor the class specifically to you. They remember that you have a knee problem, and will modify the pose to meet your needs. Not in a shameful way, but in a "we still want you to participate" way. The classes are not intimidating, and I'd encourage just about anyone to at least take one to see how they like it. The instructors (especially Chris) are kind, encouraging, but will correct you when you are out of alignment so as to prevent injury and to make sure you are getting the full benefit of each pose. Class fees are very reasonable, and they have discounts for students. The varied schedules are nice because they can accommodate morning, afternoon or evening practice. And if you miss a class in your session, they allow you to make it up. You never feel like you're wasting your money if you have to miss a class. I've been to the crowded classes. It's definitely a different way of practicing yoga, but for me, the personal attention and focus on proper alignment have done amazing things for me the last 12 weeks. Please check them out!

I went to the gym next door and the woman told me she is already in class and will not unlock the door. I've been going to yoga studios in big cities and have never heard of a studio locking their doors let alone locking them before class starts.

I've been doing Lipa Yoga for 4 months and it's one of my best yoga experiences of my 11 years as a…read morestudent. I've done yoga in California, India, Boston, Mexico, Vancouver, Puerto Rico, Texas, Hawaii, Wisconsin, San Francisco and even an Ashram in the Bahamas. I look for a spiritual experience that will also move my body toward it's best. I always want to be learning. The best yoga experiences are where there's no judgment, everyone is made to feel welcome and accepted no matter where they're at in their yoga practice and lives. When I walk into Lipa it just feels good and I know it's going to be the best part of my day. I leave feeling refreshed and grounded. The teachers are exceptional. Everyone is kind. Having just moved back to Wisconsin after 30 years in California I was surprised and delighted to find a studio like Lipa. I feel at home. The studio is very clean, the energy is calm and light. There are always all levels, yet it caters to a great experience for all. Even my partner goes and is feeling the love :) I highly recommend the meditation experience at Lipa also. Divna and team, Thank you. I'm really back home. There's no place like home.

We had been doing a lot of biking and hiking the previous days and I was really sore. The next morning I woke up feeling FANTASTIC! If we lived in the area, I would have signed us up.
