I attended a one-hour stress relief yoga class with the instructor Rebecca and I really enjoyed it…read more It was a Sunday morning and very busy. I came about 10 minutes early and the room was almost full, and within 10 minutes a ton of other people came in and we had to move around our mats for everyone to fit comfortably. With that being said, if you're coming with a partner, try to get there earlier than later to insure you'll be able to be next to them. I've never attended this kind of yoga class and it was very beginner friendly. They have all of the equipment you'll need including a mat if you didn't bring one. The instructor was great and it was a very relaxing mind and body experience. It was definitely something I needed after a tough week of workouts to loosen up my body. I left feeling rejuvenated and relaxed and would highly recommend this studio. I'd love to try their other classes.

I've been attending Luvvli Studio for several months now, and it's truly become a special place for…read moreme. This studio isn't just about yoga or wellness, it's about creating a welcoming community and offering practices that feel both unique and accessible. Unlike many similar studios around the area, Luvvli provides thoughtful and rare offerings, all at prices that feel surprisingly reasonable compared to many individual practitioners who often charge significantly more for similar services. While some might assume a studio like this would be exclusive or out of reach, I can confidently say that Luvvli is anything but pretentious or close-minded. Instead, it feels like a space that's open to any kind of person; a place where you can explore, unwind, and reconnect. Most recently, I attended their face yoga class, and it was such a refreshing experience. From the moment I walked in, Jenny made me feel so welcome and at ease. The class began with gentle stretches; slow, restorative movements, untangling little knots of tension. From there, we moved into face yoga: "eye yoga," gua sha, face tapping, and what felt like a soft dance of lymphatic and EFT tapping for the whole body. It was so much more than a skin-care practice. Jenny's attention to detail made everything feel so special. She gave me a lovely little kit for the gua sha portion: a smooth gua sha tool, nourishing oil, a tissue wipe, and a vitamin C eye mask that felt like a cool, refreshing hug for my eyes. It was thoughtful in the kind of way that makes you feel truly cared for, like every part of the experience was designed to nurture you. By the end, my face felt lighter, a little brighter, and I left feeling calm and refreshed. I'll definitely be back for more of this gentle magic.

Luvvli offers so much and I have taken part in restorative yoga, face yoga, and sound healing classes. Acu-zen is a new workshop that I truly enjoy.

Make time for you and enjoy what they have to offer for your mind, body and soul.

I feel that the class itself is a gift of so much more than just yoga. Cassie is so kind, gentle, and welcoming. What I enjoy the most though, is her knowledge in the areas of yoga, and the female body - especially in this delicate time. I learn something new in every class and always leave feeling refreshed, calmed, and further educated. I love the way we start most classes introducing ourselves and chatting a bit. All girls in this position have things they'd love to chat about w girls in a similar position, but sometimes need an ice breaker. This helps w that and just makes everyone feel more comfortable and welcome. And she offers hot tea if she's made some :) love it My only regret is that I didn't find her months ago.

We also stayed a bit afterward and purchased some scents that have been working out really well for us. It was a total journey away from the city, and I would absolutely come back to do this again.

One of the fantastic perks of being part of Core Power is you can attend any studio location! It might be the times that I come in, but this location seems to be the most cleaned and maintained in the bathroom. Much appreciated! Cher's C2 class is one of my faves. She's no doubt an experienced yoga instructor, and I always feel refreshed and mentally reset after 60 minutes with her. I'll also leave a plug for Jamie E's C2 cardio flow on Fridays! Wonderful design of flows, and I especially love that she routinely brings in yoga props like blocks or a strap to the practice. Most teachers tell you to grab a block or 2, but don't really provide suggestions or ways to use it to help, but Jamie works it into the flow (optional, of course). Cardio in the name is also a bit misleading, as it's not really cardio that's done during the class, but is meant to mean there's a quicker pace of flowing through class. This is my happy place! Namaste!

I come mainly for Zumba, it's fun shaking out the blahs and getting some cardio exercise in. And if you're not smiling by the end of class, then you're doing something wrong. I've been to Kymberlee's and Tyler/Zac's class. Kymberlee has been in fitness for-ever, a major player for Bally's and Bull's Cheerleader. I have known her for years and her personality really shows when she's teaching the class.

The music is sure to get you dancing. Like I said, it's a smaller studio, but I like the feel to it, you get to chat with the instructors and they really try to get to know you too. Payment wise, they offer drop-ins, punch cards or unlimited passes per month. Totally worth the price of admission. Great place to channel your inner Fly Girl!

When I started working out here, I think I was mesmerized by the facade of what it supposedly stood…read morefor, a friendly female focused, women's empowerment gym where you could be yourself. Well, once you look beyond the marketing scheme of it all, you'll see it for what it is : cliquey, disingenuous, simply a ploy -- headed by women who have no real lives and no friends in real life so they create their own little high school bubble. "Be yourself, judgement free" -- it is anything BUT as many of them routinely make fun of a girl who is a bit rhythmically off beat and out there. It's really all about the so called "cool girls" here ; some see this and do not play into it but many perpetuate it by willingly participating or failing to say / do anything to the contrary. In my opinion, most of them are minions of the owner, they don't think for themselves ; so take these "follower" reviews with a grain of salt. You may feel as if you have found a true gem, a feel good gym, and you are more than a walking dollar sign here but alas, it simply boils down to the almighty dollar. Do yourself a favor and continue to research and find an establishment that actually practices what they PREACH.

I would say that I…read morehate calming down and I take offense when people tell me to "chill out" or "stop stressing out". Obviously things build up and I needed a way to release all my pent up stress, anxiety, nerves, emotions instead of channeling it back into activities. I found Body & Brain Yoga on Groupon (they currently have a 10 sessions for $39.00 special). Body & Brain is incredible because it focuses on the meridians and energies of the organs, using ancient Far Eastern concepts on energy. I did a private session today with owner, Julia Chung and I just signed up for more classes. Julia is a kindred spirit. She's highly educated (PH.D./engineer) and left her cushy corporate job to pursue her soul's passion. She's really funny, really smart and incredibly compassionate. She's also a Life Coach and is patient and an amazing listener. I'm so thankful to have met her! As for the class. The "wooden pillow" class was interesting. It's definitely different than anything I have taken before but it's a lot of meditation, breathing, and using a wooden "pillow" as a massage tool. It's kind of like "myofascial release" in personal training where you use a Styrofoam roller to target key muscles and your lower back/temples. Julia also uses aromatherapy in her classes and ends each class with a circle and healing tea. The entire session was perfect because my stress was gone and it was a different experience than traditional gym (running/lifting) as well as Hatha yoga. I definitely recommend that you try it because it's an experience that I can't describe. I look forward to trying the other different classes (they have tai-chi, dahn yoga, energy classes, etc) and learning about new ways to not only de-stress but also get in touch with my true self!

Body & Brain has been deemed a cult by many that have tried their services. The founder Ilchi Lee's brain education is considered pseudoscience.
