The 3-story studio is located just off the main strip downtown. I signed up for the "30 days for $30" and registered for classes through MindBody, a website that lists all the schedules and the availability of each class. Clean changerooms and lots of space to hang up stuff. There are showers available too. I tried out an intro to silks class and had such fun, flipping around and playing with the silks. I also tried a vinyasa class with Ann Green in the loft. It had such an amazing view of Kempenfelt Lake and I learned a lot. Lame yoga classes often involve being told one pose after another, without much structure. Ann made us think about each movement and how they were related each other. She built it up with more vinyasas after we analyzed the structure and foundational concepts of certain asanas. She wouldn't let us move to the next step until she had checked to make sure our knees were all over our ankles in Warrior 2!! Everyone here greeted me warmly, and Ann Green herself even thanked me for coming. Amaaaaazing vibes. Treat yourself to a visit if you can.

Amazing energy and community...such a great positive energy and welcoming place to practice. The…read morestudios are clean and bright and the view of the lake helps you through your most challenging asana!

Hubby and I had a relaxing afternoon at Float Valley. We started off with 1 hour of Fire and Ice…read moreTherapy, then finished off with 1 hour of couples float. The Fire and Ice session consisted of rotating through sauna, quick shower, cold plunge, then standing in front of the infrared light. The sauna was big enough for 2 people to lay down, one on each bench. If you ask the staff, they will provide you with some essential oils to put on top of the rocks to elevate the experience. The cold plunge was super cold and I only dipped my body in for a split second. The tank is big enough for 1 person to lay in, like a bath tub. The infrared light was nice as it's supposed to promote muscle relaxation and pain relief. There is also a speaker in the room which you can use to select your own music. This room is completely private and for our use only - bathing suit is optional! The float session was something new to us and I was nervous about being claustrophobic in the tank. Luckily the tank was big enough for the both of us. You can keep the door closed (but I found the humidity buildup too much which made it hard to breathe), so I left a tiny crack open. You can choose to have ambient light (around the perimeter of the pool) or the starry night above or keeping it pitch black. The staff said that an hour of sleep in the tank is equivalent to 4 hours of sleep in your bed!! The facilities were clean and the staff were kind and helpful. You can fill your water bottle up with cold reverse osmosis water or make yourself a cup of hot tea. I just wish that there is something similar in Mississauga, rather than having to drive to Markham for this experience.

The space was really great and clean. The energy enhancement was interesting - it is recommended to meditate or sleep. The girl at the front desk said people bring a book to read too which would've been nice to know ahead of time. This was my first time doing any kind of float therapy - we really enjoyed it as it was super relaxing to just let go. The tank did get hot so we cracked the door open twice to get some air. You're able to control the lights in the tank as well as the music. The fire and ice was great as well. The cold plunge was extremely cold but it was a fun challenge going between the two. The staff there were super kind and friendly. I'm so happy to have gotten to experience this and with my boyfriend made for a great date day!

Went for my first aerial yoga class through Groupon. Nice that they have lockers but I don't know…read morewhy they need to take your picture "for reference". This was an all levels class but it seemed like most people have been here before. The instructor just jumped right in with no intro or anything. Although it's a relatively small class of 12, I feel like you don't get help if you need it. I just felt really uncomfortable the whole time, both emotionally and physically. Emotionally because he didn't really slow down or show any modifications, he just demonstrated and has us try. The way he explained wasn't very technical either, so I wasn't sure whether I was doing it right or not. Also, I didn't like that he commented sometimes in cantonese. Just because the students are mostly Chinese doesn't mean that you should assume they understand it. Physically uncomfortable because the hammock was too high for me and it wasn't adjustable. He said that it's okay if it's too high because I'm going to invert upside down anyway. Somebody fell down and he calmly continued teaching, later asking if she was okay. Maybe it's his teaching style, but I just don't feel comfortable going to another one of his classes.

I had a really good experience at this yoga studio. They offer Hanuman Yoga, which is taught no…read morewhere else in Toronto, aerial yoga classes and some other classes. The Instructor is really helpful and he has other students and assistants in the class to help students get into the poses if you sign up for any of the All Level Classes. I took a Hanuman Yoga class which was really hard. This class uses a yoga strap, which you use to invert yourself from the ceiling and to perform all of the poses. I actually found this class a little too difficult for myself but I did appreciate all of the help from the instructor, his assistant and the other classmates. At this studio they have a few aerial yoga classes. The traditional aerial yoga class is done very high off the floor and was much more difficult than all of the other aerial yoga classes I have ever been to. I have a few more classes at this studio and am going to try the aerial yoga class, which happens on Wednesday evening since I was told it it done much closer to the ground. I think it will be more in line with the other aerial yoga classes I have done in the past. The studio also has a Hatha yoga class which is completed on the floor and if the other aerial yoga class is too difficult I might check that one out on a Sunday to see what I think of it.

This is my first…read moreexperience with yoga and I was very anxious to start due to my limited experience ( Counterintuitive since Yoga is suppose to be relaxing). When I walked through the doors I was greeted by Joanne (the owner). She immediately made me feel very comfortable. The energy flow class was the only one available that evening and I was warned that this is not a beginners class. During the class, Joanne was an amazing instructor, making it easy for anyone to follow even if you're a beginner. She came over to give me some quick pointers without interrupting the class, which really helped me adjust to the proper positions. I will definitely return to take a beginners class, just to get the poses nailed down, but I am really excited to try all the other classes. There is a wide variety of different yoga classes and what I love the most is the flexibility with the scheduling. I highly recommend this yoga studio for beginners as well as advanced yogis. Namaste :)
