Prana isn't just a yoga studio.. It's a community and a family! I've been going here for about 5…read moremonths now and I can say that I have never been to a place like it. I travel often and tend to test out new yoga studios and no studio quite compares. I have never had a bad class at prana - and I've taken a class with Kathleen (the owner), Charlie, and MacKenzie (regularly). They do keep the studio HOT! Which I love. Each class has been different and unique. The instructors all know you and are all so welcoming. I'm moving away in a couple of months and I feel truly blessed to have found the studio, even if only for a short period of time. I will definitely return if I'm ever in the area!

I have taken many different types of classes here: yoga, barre, sculpt, and even yoga barre fusion!…read moreMost yoga studios in the area are just that -- yoga studios. I love that I can get a workout in a totally different way here than just taking yoga classes all the time. I want to get rid of my flabby arms, get nice legs, and basically tone my whole body, but yoga can only do so much! The sculpt and barre classes definitely target the areas that yoga does not! You may think you're fit, until you walk into one of these classes and feel the need to vomit several times (in a good way). Definitely my favorite studio I've attended since moving to Maryland. Even the aesthetics is super pleasing! It's a brand new studio, and you can definitely tell how new it is because of how pristine everything still is. But you can tell a lot of thought went into the design of it all. The yoga studio has 3 different sets of lights that are all on dimmers. The sconces and the ceiling perimeter lights are my favorite! You no longer have to deal with bright lights overhead whenever you're laying down on your back! They have a completely different room for the sculpt and barre classes, but both studios have surround sound, which I love! Normally, studios just have speakers in the front of the room which can either make it very loud in the front or not as motivational in the back. But here, the music can pump you up no matter where your mat is! I cannot recommend this studio enough and am so glad to have the opportunity to take such a great variety of classes with great teachers.

So I was visiting from California and needed a good stretch/workout from traveling. ( It can make…read moreme cranky ) and this yoga studio solved all of my problems and more! I live in the Inland empire in CA and I've taken a few different type of studio classes but this one turned out to be one of my most favorite! The rooms are heated so you sweat your butt off and the moves and flow were different every time. I got the $29 dollar package so that I could attend a few times, that price I couldn't pass up, and the classes, omg I fell in love. I can't find a studio like this one at home unless I go toward the beach cities :( miss it! And Thank you! NAMASTE

I teach and practice in LA but I am from Maryland. I was home for two months over the holidays and…read moretried studios all over the state, and I had a hard time finding a studio and teachers that I liked. What I noticed was that many of the studios in MD we're just not the same caliber as LA in terms of amenities and teachers... until I found Yoga Factory Annapolis / Annapolis Power Yoga! The facility is great (they have showers and amenities), free/easy parking, and it feels like a community / small business (not corporate like Core Power). The teachers were extremely knowledgeable and their hot yoga classes are actually hot with a real heating system. Love that they offer an array of classes from traditional Bikram, vinyasa (non-heated), to HITT (classes with weights for sculpting). I can't wait to go back. Thanks guys for having me!

Today was my first time doing hot yoga. The sessions last an hour and a half . I honestly thought I…read morewas gonna pass out there for a second, but by the end I was very proud I pushed through. Our instructor, Sydney, was helpful and funny. His humor helped break up the silence. This is a no judgment zone - feel free to take your shirt off, it may even help. When the say it's hot yoga it's HAWT, and with everyone sweating it gets kinda humid . The session progresses through a series of breathing, standing, then laying poses. This class is really good for increasing your flexibility, strengthening your back, and detoxing your body. BRING WATER, YOU WILL NEED IT. If you can't fully do a pose, there are suggested resting positions. I suggest you do as best as you can and listen to the instructors suggestions on how to modify the pose. I love working out, but I usually do HIIT. Even still this workout is still challenging, and you sweat. A great caloric burn.

Two things that will strike you immediately, the super friendly staff and it's cleanliness. Evolutions especially excels with the Pilates (Power) trainers and equipment.

Kelly D can really kick up the hour! Evolutions also has a great body work staff. Jack M, does intramuscular massage that might make you cry on the table but you leave with real and lasting results. For a great holistic approach to fitness in a clean and friendly environment, choose Evolutions.

She worked on my hip, glutes, thigh etc and within 1 day I was feeling better. I know it will take several more sessions but I am ecstatic that I finally found someone who could help me. I highly recommend Sabrina. For the first time in 4 months I'm feeling optimistic that the pain will continue to decrease with more sessions. Kathleen.

An amazing day trip if you live in Baltimore, DC area, or even the Eastern Shore. Kent Island is easy to get to and close to a ton of restaurants so you can make an entire afternoon out of it. Karla was especially amazing because she let us know before the day of that the waters were going to be choppy due to the wind so we were warned about it being a little more difficult. Once we arrived, she took us through an introductory class to teach us the fundamentals about paddleboarding and form. She impressed upon us that the water was not very deep so that we weren't nervous going out on the choppy waters! She then came with us to take pictures of us standing up and a group shot all together! She also followed up with a thank you email and attached the pictures she took -- now if that isn't unbelievable service, I don't know what is!! I would (and will) visit her again as it was an amazing day on the water even if it was almost 100 degrees out!!!

Also their location can be a bit tricky to find but the main door is off Keswick Rd (and is stroller friendly). Walk in past the dress shop and bare to the right. There's a big parking lot in the back.

This review is is for the doula services and support groups (becoming a mom and breastfeeding)…read more I like that the becoming a mom group has a rotation of doulas who lead the group each week. That way you end up inadvertently meeting the different doulas. We went with Cara. She has a ton of experience and super chill vibe. Our hospital was not allowing extra visitors due to COVID so we signed up for a virtual doula service. She met with us a few times before the birth to review questions, birth plan, and provide support. She was also available via email for random questions that came up in between. The day of my labor I reached out to her as needed and she guided me through some of the decisions we had to make. Her support made it so that I could better advocate for myself and my baby during my labor. She was 100% supportive of all my decisions and in the end I ended up having a beautiful and quick birth. I am so happy we got a doula and recommend it to anyone no matter what type of brith you are planning on having. I found the groups to be more helpful towards the beginning of my pregnancy, especially as it was a time that COVID was just ramping up. The only issue is that the people in group vary from week to week. I think it would be nice to be able to connect with the same group from week to week so there is some continuity.
