It was such a challenge but the instructors give great guidance, before, during and after the classes. 10/10 experience. I have since purchased a 30 class pass and am going 2-3 times a week. I love having access to different classes, timing, and instructors. The studio feels clean and inviting and every instructor brings a different energy so there really is something for everyone!

I admire this studio's integrity to its method of practice - they seem to pride themselves on a…read morestringent adherence to the Baptiste method of yoga. To them, this apparently means one movement per breath, though my experience in their power vinyasa class felt more like three movements per breath. I could hardly keep up! I shared my perspective with the front desk after the class when I had to decide between paying for a $25 drop in v. a $40 30-day trial period, and was met basically with "that's how it's supposed to be", in so many words. I understand that these classes are taught in this method by design, but as a business-minded person, I couldn't help but think that they could draw 2-3x more people per each class if they adapted a bit to the status quo of the Seattle yoga scene. With a location as prime as this one, don't you want to make more money by practicing yoga that (more) people will actually enjoy? SLU doesn't seem like the place for a stronghold of a fairly niche method of yoga... It seems like people probably go here just because there isn't a better option so close to work. The frantic pace of class, mixed with the hot-enough-to-perspire-but-not-hot-enough-to-SWEAT classroom temp, the unpleasant locker room experience (so crowded!), and the overpriced package options made this a two star experience for me.

Not only is it within walking distance from a lot of the hotels in the area, they have a great staff and a variety of challenging classes to to choose from throughout the week. I wasn't quite sure what Baptiste style was when I first joined, but if you're into Vinyasa, it's pretty much like that, but a little stronger and hot. Depending on when you go, the classes can be super packed. They do mark spots on the floor with tape to make sure that they are maximizing the space and allowing as many students as possible to practice at any given time. I think that's smart - I've been to a lot of studios where they just let everyone do their thing and it becomes mass chaos, and mats are pretty much positioned anywhere and everywhere. I've taken mostly the Hour of Power and Power Flow classes. The Hour of Power is only 60-mins, but it's pretty intense. Besides it being a warm studio, you'll be sweating and working hard. Just remember to breathe, drink water when you need it and probably bring an absorbent mat towel to soak up all your hard efforts. For a little more, the Power Flow is great because it's an hour and a half. Scott Francis is the instructor that I've taken the most while visiting and he's great. His voice is really calming and he puts together some nice flows to make sure you're getting the most out of the high intensity class. Lockers are complimentary and electronic. As you place your belongings inside, you choose your own unique code to retrieve your stuff so you don't have to hassle with a key. The men's room has three showers with some nice smelling stuff to make sure you don't leave the studio a big sweaty mess. Mat rentals and towel rentals are available for a fee. A big plus is that they are next door to a Whole Foods, so you can grab juice before or after your class to help feed your body with fresh nutrients! I highly recommend!

Teachers come and go, as is the nature of the business. Thankfully, I look forward to a few constants: Nicole's brilliant sound baths, Chloe's evocative, primal Saturday am power flows, Alicia's "happy Monday, now let's get this party started" 6:15am thoughtfully curated flows (BEST way to start the work week), newcomer Suki's entrancing Sunday meditations, Teigh's loving Reiki offering, and Sarah Lakey's (who is EVERYTHING good in anatomy and movement progression) slow flow. This is my love letter to a place where, as soon as I settle in/ onto my mat, I feel like I'm home. The community is icing: I hope you come experience for yourself. There's a great 30 day all- you- can -practice offering. Hope to see you on the mat!

Fellow Yelp Elite All Star, Carol C, was game to check it out today (4/11/26). Best to approach the shared parking lot with KKokio, approaching from the north via Rainier Ave S. It can also be accessed via Metro bus. Once onsite, there's counter seating by the main entrance, additional seating including additional counter seating, bench seating, two top tables, and two large couches. Clean, streamlined, natural light. I like the interior decor, mirrored walls, and healthy plants. I didn't have the opportunity to stare closely though at the vinyl collection during this visit. Decent music playing which added to the overall vibe. Menu items include beverages, smoothies, acai bowls, musubi, onigiri, empanadas, and other baked goods. Order and pay via the touchscreen kiosk. There's also merch available for purchase. The Freshh Cafe is adjacent to The Beacon studio, home of the trailblazing crew Massive Monkees. The studio has a variety of scheduled classes and events, and also functions as a community hub. The Beacon just celebrated its 13th year just last month. We enjoyed our well crafted mochas onsite continuing our lively convo. Good to detour and check out this indie cafe.

I think I was a little confused as to where to enter but I realized the same entrance for The Beacon is also the same entrance to this cafe in particular. There's about two areas to take pics around that contain the logos of the place that make nice photo ops. You order up at the counter, and they also have some onigiris there as well. I got their ube matcha latte and spicy tuna nigiri here. Ube matcha was in a relatively larger cup and ube puree was strong. Matcha taste is strong on its own and blends in nicely with the ube, and cup is only half full when I downed it quickly. I was given the ube latte in the beginning but my server quickly corrected it after I let him know. The spicy tuna onigiri was pretty standard but also had a mild spicy kick that was quite satisfying. I talked with one of the people up front and was surprised to know that this place has only opened for 2 months yet I've only seen reels of the inside on social media just yesterday! For my next visit here I definitely want to try one of their acai bowls that they're well-known for.

On my visit, however, one of the actual dishes did not quite match the description and the descriptions of some parts of both dishes were misleading or not easily understandable. The chef/teacher of Square One is a prima donna and very defensive to any criticism or suggestions; he seems to be hostile toward diners. It's a shame, because that affects the dining experience for customers and must be difficult for the students he presumably oversees.. Still, if you are OK with not knowing if the dish will match the menu description *exactly* (or you make sure to check right before you order), you can get gourmet, creative, interesting lunches for less than they would be anywhere else. There may even be a dessert available, like the very good creme brulee. The waitstaff doesn't seem to be very familiar with the menu, so they may make multiple trips to check with the kitchen if you make inquiries. Be proactive to check that you have everything you need at each step--the person bringing the plate may not have checked whether you need utensils, water may be filled randomly by a different person, etc. They are sweet and earnest, though, so be patient with them.
