Agh, spin class! It's been too long old friend. There's no time like the present, right? I packed…read moreup my my water, clip shoes and headed over to Martinez Fitness Center. Paid $4 for the class and headed on in. Heidi is our instructor and is super chill. Retired military and many years of fitness experience, triathlete (she's participating in this weekend's triathlon). As a former Spin instructor I can vouch you are in good hands with Heidi. She's got the skills to pay the bills. The room that's used for class is a racquetball court and has fifteen bikes. This is only temporary until classes start back up at the other fitness center, (Family Health and Fitness Center), just across the way from this one. Once over there more classes will be offered, as well as more available bikes, but for now the class is 11:45-12:45 on Wednesdays. Per usual, you'll scan in with your ID, then walk to the other part of the counter to pay for your class. Then head over to the class and sign in. Heidi will help you set up your bike (if you're new or if you don't know what's what). Trust me, for your best ride and safety, it's essential to customize your bike to you. There's a handlebar height, the seat height and the fore and aft of the seat. The bikes are in very good shape, no clunkers here. In the hour class there's a warm-up, the ride, the cool down and then off the bike for more cooldown/stretching. It's a good class, with good energy and good people. If you have access to Schofield and the gym you should definitely go, I hope to see you there! *** I'll update when we move over to the other fitness center.

I have never loved a work out more! Carli has such a unique twist on Pilates that not only gives…read moreyou an incredible workout, but spiritually connects you to your body. Her understanding of the inner workings of the way our bodies are woven together is like magic. I have done a lot of different workouts over the years and none of them really seemed to change the way my body looked or felt in any real way. I thought that maybe I just had one of those bodies that couldn't transform. However, Carli has proven me wrong, she works your body out from the inside out, creating deep change and transformation that has made me feel good in my body for maybe one of the first times in my life. Long story short, I can't recommend it enough.

Sunset Beach Pilates was the first and only studio I've tried and now my expectations are set and I don't know if I'll ever be able to go anywhere else ;) The best part is how knowledgeable the instructors are about the human body - the cues and descriptions on how to work certain muscles and access specific areas of your body are priceless and not something I could do on my own - it's like a massage for your muscles with an insanely good sweat and workout! Cardio with Carli is my favorite class but even in the foundations class I leave sweating and challenged. Thank you for creating such an epic space for our community, Carli!

I love this little gym. Theres nothing fancy about this place, really. But it is right by my work…read moreso I can walk over and get a quick workout on my lunch. Its never really busy around lunch time and I can always find an elliptical, treadmill, or stairmaster to work on. They have tons of free weights as well as machines with weights in a small room to the side. They also have a sauna there. The locker rooms have lockers available for daily use or I think you can rent one out on a monthly basis or something like that (don't quote me on this!). Another great perk here is that they have free wifi! So you can stream your music without going over on your data (for those of us who don't have those plans that exclude music from our data usage). The staff here is friendly. Once they see you enough, they always say hi. I always see them cleaning the machines too and sweeping. Some things to remember: *Bring your ID card as they have 100% ID check. Once you register, you have to scan each time you come in. *Bring a small towel to wipe your sweat. *Wipe the machines down after you use it with the provided paper towels and cleaner. *Bring your headphones. Although they play music, theres just so much machines running, weights clanging together, and just movement in general, it is kind of hard to hear the music well.

I absolutely love Pono yoga! Alexandra does an amazing job with all experience levels, and chooses…read morethe most beautiful and peaceful locations for her classes! Most classes I've attended have been in nature, with amazing ocean views, or even right on a peaceful beach! I've taken a few random yoga classes here and there, but I would definitely not consider myself to have much experience at all. She did an excellent job making me feel comfortable, even tho I'm pretty inflexible, while gently pushing me to be a little more flexible! There were other students that had a lot of experience and knew the poses by name and could do them instinctively, but Alexandra took the time to come over and gently adjust my poses to help me do them right! She makes you feel very comfortable and relaxed with no judgement for newcomers who have no clue what they are doing, while still challenging the experienced yoggies! I also loved how she guides your mind and spirit along with your body, making you feel very harmonious! The meditation at the end with warm towels and essential oils was the icing on the cake! 10/10 would recommend!! She doesn't charge anything for her classes, so be sure to tip her well! Thank you for making me feel comfortable and welcomed Alexandra!

She guided me through poses that were creative, calming, and effective. Her passion for yoga and her deep understanding of its true essence and healing power is evident in everything she does. She genuinely honors the connection between the mind and body, creating an experience that nurtures both. Throughout the session, I felt cared for both physically and emotionally. Ana creates a safe, welcoming space free of judgment, allowing you to fully relax. I can't recommend her enough. Thank you, Ana, for sharing your incredible gift.

As a certified yoga instructor herself, my wife would be hard to be impressed but she definitely was. Julia, the owner, was ready to go when we got there and clearly explained everything. Her instructions were clear, she was kind and encouraging and she took excellent pictures. Although it was challenging, it was a lot of fun. The lights under the paddleboards, the starry night sky and the cool water added to a great experience. Thank you Julia! Keep up the great job! We will definitely do this again next time we're in Oahu.

Three days and nights of yoga, meditation, talk story, food and music, all on the grounds of the Turtle Bay Resort! Although there are multiple Wanderlust festival events that happen, this has go to be the best one because of this beautiful property on the North Shore. I went a few years ago with my bestie Meg and we had the best time! We enjoyed a talk story class that focused on intention, took an aerial yoga class outdoors, did acro-yoga with strangers, meditated in a tent out by the ocean and got our hair braided at an Aveda braid bar. There really is something for everyone and it's fun to be surrounded by people who are just as passionate about yoga as you! I found the instructors to be knowledgeable and it was fun to venture out and experience new modalities of yoga. In addition to a large variety of classes, they also have a large outdoor marketplace with a variety of food, drink and retail vendors. You can buy a 1, 2 or 3 day pass, and also add on extra events such as farm-to-table meals, live music, stand-up paddle yoga and more! The festival can definitely add up, so you don't have the funds to buy a ticket, you can also volunteer at the festival and get a free pass. Be forewarned that by the second day of Wanderlust, my body was really tired and sore as I usually don't do two plus classes a day. Also, many of the classes are outdoors so you'll really want to make sure you schedule your classes correctly so you don't end up with a crazy sunburn. Looking forward to my next Wanderlust experience and can't wait to yoga my brains out!

Admission can be pricey, but it gives you access to some of the coolest and hottest yoga classes, instructors, etc. The non yoga sessions can sometimes cost more, so take that into account. Sign up online for sessions. The place is filled with awesome and friendly people who are there to experience yoga, as well as vendors, volunteers, and non-profits that are environmentally minded. My sister in law is a huge yogi, and she flew in from Canada just for this event. I was here because I got to volunteer with Sustainable Coastlines Hawaii, who are here giving info on marine debris. Everything is absolutely awesome, and I highly recommend coming out if you get a chance!!
