Using Class Pass, this was my first time ever taking a reformer class so I chose the Reformer Flow I because I wasn't sure how it would go. The instructor definitely helped me figure out the equipment and adjusted my form during the class. I felt like I got a good stretch but it wasn't too much of a workout. I guess next time I would have to choose a more challenging class, so just a heads up if you are already quite active at baseline. At least for the class I took, it was calm and low impact, which can be great for active recovery. Also this studio is great for COVID since the reformers are spaced out and there are few people/class.

I relocated from Houston to Baltimore and was seeking some fitness classes. I had a friend back…read morehome rave about Pure Barre so I decided to take advantage of free class. This location is close to where I live, about 10 minutes or so. Checked in and greeted. I was told to wait as the instructor was going to come out to get me......class was 1215. I saw other members go into the room and still nothing for me. So I asked the front desk, do I wait here still? She was like yeah...so a waited a little longer then she finally took me to the back of the room to get my equipment (weights, band, a ball). The instructor for this class was Elizabeth. Music selection was good but it was hard for me to follow or feel like I knew what I was doing. I saw Elizabeth helped other participants out but with me being NEW, I would think the instructor would check in/guide me as well...didn't happen so I just looked at the other women around me for guidance. Upon leaving, I was asked about my experience and told them that I didn't feel like I knew what I was doing; she told me that most folks feel like that and was provided a flyer about their membership that I will NOT be getting (although I was strongly considering membership). I just didn't feel welcomed here as a new participant. Initially was excited but afterwards, I was like nah, I can't use my money for a membership here. But overall, my body felt good.

The studio is beautiful but it's really the staff that make this place so special. Each instructor is down to earth, passionate about yoga and most importantly in my opinion are deeply dedicated to the study and practice about yoga. Every class I've taken has teetered perfectly on the line of getting a good workout in and interpreting the teachings of yoga.

Jen is really lovely, she is super kind to all clients. This is a trend with CP but the teaching…read moreskills are a bit inconsistent. Some instructors are better with explaining how to do the movements correctly. I really have enjoyed my classes with Taylor and Avery (best music as well). I've taken classes with 5 other instructors as well. Another trend I've noticed is the lack of inclusivity. I've been to other workout studios and there's usually a culture of kindness, here I'll smile at the women and they will literally look at me like or just looking up/down at you... it seems oddly competitive? My other experience as well is one of the instructors kept calling me by the name of the only other Asian girl in the studio, I didn't notice it until midway through class. Lastly I think the cost for 8 classes a month for $200 is a bit steep when looking at Solidcore/Core power yoga unlimited classes are $180 per month. Something to note! I definitely would've kept going if the cost made sense and I could frequent classes with solid instructors.

The classes are challenging yet fun, and I love the 1.5 class format - it's the perfect balance. My only wish is that they offered more Sculpt or high cardio classes, as I tend to lean towards those.

I've gone to Yoga Union several times since discovering them a few weeks ago. They offer classes at…read moreconvenient times and for reasonable prices! I think it's $17 for the average class, but they also offer $6 community classes that fill up so get there early! They also offer all of their classes by live stream for a lower cost if you prefer to practice at home! (They also offer membership and class pass options; I'm thinking of getting a class pack since it's a considerable savings!) I've only taken a class with one instructor so far (Billy J.), but I've loved his class so much, I'd love to try more instructors and more classes in the future. (I highly recommend Billy's hatha class; he and the class are approachable but the class is challenging and fun!) The building can be hard to find the first time but it's become part of why I love Yoga Union. It's in a small building tucked behind the light rail track and the new brewery in Woodberry. The only strange thing is that you have to cross the tracks to get to it. Pay attention to your GPS the first time, and you'll be fine! The building is pretty old - and it's sort of hot yoga by default (it warms up fast) - but not crazy hot or intentionally hot. You can hear the light rail trains go by which I find weirdly calming, too! The studio is just one room, with a check in area and a bathroom. The check in staff are very friendly. The classes I've taken have not been very crowded (unless a community class), and there has been room to spread out. It's easy to book and pay for classes online, too! I've enjoyed my experiences at Yoga Union, and I plan to keep practicing here regularly! Check it out!

As a Bikram Yoga instructor, I have high standards. I like it hot. I'm not talking the prescribed…read more104 degrees with 40% humidity. No! I'm talking throw me into the mouth of a fire breathing dragon, allow me to suffer a bit, sometimes tease me with a breath of fresh air, allow me to continue melting, and throw some positivity in to keep me from completely sputtering out. Thankfully, Breathing Dragon lives up to its name. This delightful hot yoga studio, which was converted from a core power yoga studio, has everything I need to be happily at home. Breathing Dragon IS absolutely hot. While a hot yoga room is ideal, teaching is VERY important to me. Mori, the owner, is exceptional!!! She is, what I would refer to in the yoga world, a Master Teacher. She is extremely knowledgable about the body, the yoga practice, has over 20 years of teaching experience, and radiates positive energy. She has funny jokes, inspiring quotes, and advanced corrections which is particularly important to someone like me who has almost 22 years of yoga practice. She walks around with a ruler, ensures proper alignment, and provided me with hands on corrections, which I just adore. Thank you, Mori. Her rays of sunshine alleviated (some of) my suffering - after all, I chose to practice in the hottest spot in the room (far left when facing the mirror). Mori did kindly advise me of that spot, but I love a challenge. Let me say, Mori's class is a pleasant challenge. I have practiced at 100s of studios around the US and other countries. I have very high standards. Mori meets Every Single One of them. Would I practice here again? Absolutely. The studio has showers, lockers (bring your own lock), towels/mats for rent, and cubby holes for shoes at the door. Mori of Breathing Dragon has fostered a beautiful community of welcoming practitioners. If you move to downtown Baltimore or just passing through and want to make friends or just simply meet quality humans, practice at Breathing Dragon.

If you are used to practicing regular yoga, i.e. without heat and on a wood floor, I can see why you might detect a sweaty odor in any Bikram studio. But since the point of Bikram is to sweat, most studios will have some odor and humidity. I've been practicing Bikram for 4 years - this studio is clean, not smelly, roomy and cozy. The teachers are uniformly excellent and they keep the room hot. Everyone is extremely nice and welcoming. The bathrooms are clean and there are three showers and numerous lockers if you want to lock up your stuff. I'm grateful to have Bikram Baltimore my home away from home! 11/1/19 - still love this studio. Consistently good teachers, clean and professional. If You are used to bikram yoga, you will find it a pleasure. If it's your first time, it's always a challenge but everyone here is nice and supportive

I just got back from my first Bikram Yoga class ever. I've done Ashtanga yoga before, but never hot…read moreyoga. When you first walk into the room, it's of course hot (as it's supposed to be), but smells like a wet dog. The floor is carpeted, and people sweat all over the carpet, but it honestly smells like they don't ever clean the carpet. It's honestly disgusting. On top of that, I went with a diabetic friend who also had never done hot yoga. The instructor, Barbara, recommended that we stay in the room, even if we can't do the moves, to receive the most benefit out of the class. She also told us it is normal to feel nauseous or light-headed during class. After about 15-20 minutes of class, my friend wanted to step out for a minute because she didn't feel well. Being diabetic, it is really easy to get dehydrated and she wanted a bit of fresh air so she could try to last through the whole 90-minute class. Barbara asked her to stay, and she didn't because it's ultimately her choice as to whether or not she steps out for air. After a few minutes, Barbara had us take a brief water break and stepped out to talk to my friend. She came back in shortly thereafter and made a few comments about how wrong and inappropriate it is for people to leave class. I don't care who you are or what business you're in, but it is NEVER appropriate to talk badly about a customer in front of other customers. Ever. For any reason. I asked my friend what happened after we left, and she told me that Barbara came out and just basically yelled at her for leaving class. She said she talked to her like a child, and told her she can't leave class and she can't be hanging around there because "she might steal something." She came out a while later and walked up front, diddled around at the front desk and kept an eye on my friend, making sure she didn't do anything wrong. Barbara never bothered to ask if my friend was okay (and she knew my friend was diabetic), she never asked if she had any blood sugar problems, or even tried to encourage her to finish the class. She barked at her like she was a dog and then accused her of trying to steal. In addition, after she came back in the class room at one point, she was going on and on about how different people have different thresholds and different capabilities and such. Yet, somehow, it wasn't okay for someone who didn't have a high threshold for heat to step out for a minute and catch their breath. I can tell you one thing, I will never give them my business ever again. Even if we had enjoyed the class and wanted to come back, after being treated that way as a new customer, it makes me not want to come back. How can you honestly treat new customers that way? I don't understand how someone can be so rude. I've never in my life had a yoga instructor be anything less than encouraging and caring. But if one instructor there is like that, I can't imagine what the others are like.

I take the Neo-Soul class that is mellow/chill. Dea takes her time, watches the students to see what their limitations are and works within those parameters. Some students are more flexible, others are better with balance. She deals w/ each of us one-on-one and as a group to keep us moving, stretching, and getting us to use muscles that hadn't been used much (for some of us). When I walked into the class, I couldn't balance on one leg at all. I'd fall over. Now, I can stand on one foot, I can touch my toes, I have become more flexible. I give my highest recommendation to the Che Yoga Mobile studio. Dea is personable and extremely kind and fair. She makes everyone feel welcome.
