My husband attends Tai Chi at White Willow and loves his classes.

Well worth exploring.

White Willow is where I started to learn the internal arts and where I started to comprehend the incredible wealth that comes from internal development. It depends on what you are looking for, but overall, if you want to improve your life simply by doing certain exercises you'd be happy with your choice to go there. They will treat you good.

They welcomed me with open arms when I first pulled up and when I had no idea what I was truly walking into. What was and continues to be poured into me has helped cultivate a change in my life that I always dreamed of...to fully be aware of self and sufficient in all aspects and areas by maximizing effort. Master Lambert has been one of the greatest Teachers in my forty years of being on this planet. What he and his disciples have provided to me could never be repaid. I strive to have a life of peace and prosperity that Sifu and Simo share. As I said before there are no words that will encapsulate what these people mean to me. Everyone has different experiences and I will say this is one you would have to see yourself because "Shaolin Wing Chun is a living, breathing, entity."

I started out looking for something different than just the punching and kicking martial arts…read moreschool that you can find anywhere. My search led me to Meng's Martial Arts of Cincinnati and Shaolin Wing Chun taught by Master John Lambert. Master Lambert is an excellent teacher and human being. He will teach you to punch and kick, but also will teach you so much more about yourself. Master Lambert's depth of knowledge of martial arts, Shaolin Wing Chun, meditation, and self-defense is second to none. If you are looking for an authentic and genuine experience then this is the place for you.

The studio is on a residential street. The building has a side entrance and street parking. Inside, there's a small witchy/crystal sort of store. The instructor told us the store is only open during studio hours. Upstairs there are so many plants! This studio is really a gorgeous space. It's big and bright. The instructor moved us through having a nice stretch and a gong meditation. There are a lot of steps at this location. I don't think it's handicapped accessible. Signing up for the class was really easy. The website is very comprehensive and very well set up.

I went to WiseWays this morning with a friend for an Easy Flow Yoga class. As it was my first time…read morethere, the instructor Julie was extremely helpful in getting my friend and me set up After filling out the necessary paperwork, we went into the yoga room. It's probably one of the coolest yoga spaces I've seen. The room is dimly lit with only natural light, the ceiling has drape-y things hanging from it, there are several woven baskets with mats and yoga props, and there are even bongos situated in the room! It definitely helped set the mood of the class. The teacher took the time to explain the set up and flow of the class to me and my friend. The set up was different for me. The class started with self-massage. I've never experienced that before, and while it was a foreign concept to me, I enjoyed it. During the self-massage, we were given some aromatherapy cream, which was awesome. I love smelling hippy smells like pachouli during yoga. It makes me feel more calm. The class was an hour and 15 minutes - definitely a great value! We went through gentle and modified versions of the sun salutation and many other common yoga poses. I enjoyed the gentle stretch and relaxation to start my weekend. But since I am more experienced in yoga, I wish it were a bit more vigorous. To be fair, though, I need to try the other two types of classes, as the Easy Flow is meant to be...well, easy. The only thing I disliked was that the class was only 3 people large. I enjoy bigger classes because I feed off of the energy of others in the class. I also have a feeling that most folks don't know about this place. If you're not interested in yoga, they also have tai chi classes. I recommend it and will be back!

With a year-long unlimited membership pass, I am pretty familiar with Wiseways/Shift yoga. (They…read morechanged owners and the name to Shift in January '13.) Upside: super friendly staff and fellow yoga lovers. Big enough parking lot and its kind of hidden around the corner. Wonderful, relaxing classes. Downsides: Sort of a small space, so right after they do a Groupon or something it can get grossly crowded for a week or two. Very limited weekend classes: none on Fridays or Sundays, and only one on Saturday at 8:30a. Pretty inconvenient if you have a regular 9-5. Also if you're under 30 you'll be the youngest in the class.

Every time I'm in there's multiple tours and multiple people signing up to a gym that is already crowded. If you go on a Saturday morning and cannot find a squat rack or a flat bench to do a workout you've signed up too many people. If I want to pay for overcrowded, I'll use planet fitness for 20 bucks a month. I haven't even begin to talk about the summer months. The pools are beyond overcrowded and disgusting.
