Let me start by giving some background information. I LOVE YOGA! I've been doing yoga well over a…read moredecade and only wish I had found it earlier in my life. I earned by 200 hours teacher certification about 3 years ago from a wonderful local studio. I lived at that studio for a year, going to class 5 days a week. Then COVID. The studio went virtual and 3 things happened - I got used to the convenience of doing yoga at home, I redecorated and made my own home studio, and the local studio stopped offering the classes I loved while discontinuing their virtual classes. On top of this, I had shoulder surgery in Dec. 2020 and then spent all of 2022 struggling with issues resulting from the surgery. So yoga has been difficult to find and only available to me part of the year. Once yoga studios opened as pandemic restrictions eased, I began my search for studios that offered virtual classes at times I wanted them that didn't cost to much. I tried SO MANY one month trial memberships. I found a few that were OK, but the pricing was high, the style of yoga not my favorite, or the class times were inconvenient or too infrequent. I had been looking in Central Ohio - and then looked in Cleveland - and finally started on Toledo. ENTER TOLEDO YOGA! Toledo Yoga was the first studio in the NW Ohio area I had tried. Their calendar looked very promising, offering SO MANY CLASSES throughout the day. Bonus - power yoga was offered during the week at 5:30 - the perfect time for me! I work from home and log into work from 7 AM - 5 PM or so. I want my yoga class to start before 6:30 and 5:30 is ideal. The Friday class is 4:30, but that works out fine. By then, my brain is fried on work and I'm ready to have some fun - and Conni's classes are always great. The one thing I don't absolutely love is the yoga is based on Baptiste yoga. I was trained in Vinyasa style with a focus on Ashtanga (which I really dislike), so at least Baptiste is accessible to me whereas there was so much in Ashtanga I could not do (or do well). HOWEVER, the flows always vary and each instructor puts their own twist on the format and always comes up with something fresh and interesting. On Saturday morning, I started my day with getting my butt kicked by Gi and her sculpt class. And this week I also enjoyed the 9 AM power class and have also taken the 11 AM. Sunday I have fallen in love with the flow class with Nada. Her amazing cues and long held poses is often akin to a yin class. Finally - Toledo Yoga uses Zoom. I've tried other studios that use other platforms - the worst being the Mindybody livestream. I would have joined a prior studio I tried by I hated the Mindbody experience. It didn't work on most of my devices and the instructors didn't know how to use it. Just painful classes with messed up visuals. AND the frosting on the cake - the virtual membership is SO AFFORDABLE! Added bonus - there is a huge online library of on-demand classes you have access to. The ONE time the studio's Zoom stream failed, I quickly pivoted and did a recorded class online instead. If I haven't convinced you this is an awesome value and so worth a try - I'm not sure this is the studio for you! I would have settled for so much less - but I did have to. Thank Toledo Yoga and all your wonderful instructors!!

Absolutely amazing! ‍…read more This review is long overdue but I was simply trying to wait to be able to get pictures to add to the post. But as many of you may know who do yoga, you typically don't take your phone into the studio, so I always forget. So if you have not done yoga, it is an absolute must for your health and wellness routine! Toledo Yoga has the best, I mean THE BEST yoga Instructor's I have ever come in contact with. I have been coming to Toledo Yoga since about 2017 with some breaks in between. But the community and the culture are consistent. It's an amazing community full of support and guidance, to help you achieve your best possible self, while you find in the light within. It is a great studio for beginners, intermediate and advanced practicers. All of the instructors have a unique style teaching and there are plenty of classes and times available for you to find your niche. Toledo Yoga also offers a 30 for 30 program, where you can try unlimited classes for 30 days for just $30! You are stronger than you believe! Stop in and give them a try!

I actually left this gym a few months ago. I was pretty sad to do it because I know the amenities…read moreare great and it has always been clean, which many gyms are not! Unfortunately, they made some changes and consolidated some spaces, etc. One of those changes was severely cutting their hours. I believe they close at 8:00 p.m. throughout the week now, and 2:00 p.m. on the weekends! These hours don't fit most people's lives, especially mine as a night shift nurse. I can handle rearranging some equipment and even closing the kids club, but if I can't get there because they close so doggone early it's not worth me paying for it. By the way, even though they cut out several hours per week of available gym time for clients, they did not cut out any of the very expensive monthly dues for members. This business is owned by ProMedica and if I didn't know any better I would think that they didn't care about encouraging people to live a healthy lifestyle, and that they only cared about money. And then I remembered that I am a ProMedica nurse and that is absolutely, 100%, the case! They made these changes to the hours from a financial standpoint, not thinking about their clientele or giving a crap if anyone actually visits the gym (so long as they pay their monthly dues).

I bought a one month membership and was placed immediately, days after purchase, on a Covid wing assignment in Southern Ohio. I called back immediately and said I wouldn't be able to attend and can I please have a refund. I had not even taken one class. They said they would extend my membership by a week, which would do nothing so I sent them an email further clarifying the situation expecting them to be like, 'oh my goodness, we didn't understand, of course.' Their response was that, 'this is a really good deal.' I was shocked. I emailed them back in disbelief...'are you really not refunding me?' They didn't even have the courtesy to email me back. I was kind, polite and patient and they are literally stealing from clients as there was no exchange of goods for services paid. So if you have a busy schedule, or for any reason may need to cancel, these are the ethics of the people you are dealing with. Just go in knowing that.

just now NEW This is…read moreprobably the most important review I've ever written. I've been going to Essential Therapies for 2 years now for myofascial release. I've been a Registered nurse for over 40 years, and I've learned more about healing in these past 2 than I ever have before. I have had chronic pain since 2015 related to various trauma including 2 back surgeries and cervical spine surgery. Also a hysterectomy. My body has been out of alignment with huge layers of restrictions - the medical community had no idea what was going on with me and could only offer pills or more procedures that would only compound the problems and make them worse. I can honestly say that I'm finally at a point where I see and feel myself slowly healing and getting better. I'm eternally grateful to Dr. Cindy Hodgson for being the amazing woman she is, and for creating this business and helping so many others like me who would not be getting well without her expertise. I want to thank the professionals at Essential Therapies for their kind and compassionate care - Cindy, Brook, Dani and Tiffany - you fabulous women have given me back my life. If anyone reads this through I encourage you to learn about myofascial release and trust that it is the future of healthcare, and a path to true wellness. What we've been told and offered until now by the medical community is not working.
