The place itself is inside a larger building and in a nice location, close enough to the highway but off the beaten path enough to not be crazy packed with traffic. Sign up was easy and convenient online. Come prepared in tighter fitting (but comfortable!) clothing that covers your underarms and legs (to prevent burning!) and minimal or no jewelry. You definitely don't want to risk getting it hung on the silks! Oh and definitely bring some water. You're guaranteed to be a little (or a lot!) sore the next day. Jamie was our instructor and she was phenomenal! She was so fun, patient, and encouraging. As a first timer, this was very intimidating but Jamie made us feel like pros! The class starts with foundational elements: stretches, a warm up, then basics on the silks apparatus such as foot wrapping and pulling yourself up. We gradually introduced more shapes and the foot knot. The class flew by and was so much fun! It's truly an addicting workout/art form and Jamie's skills were so impressive. I can't wait to go back! Definitely check this place out and have a unique experience with friends, your partner, or fly solo!

I enjoyed my time off from the grind by spending time with DEAR friends and Dropping In at a quality CrossFit gym like CrossFit Simplicity. The drop in process was great (and I got a shirt). The owner, Daniel, was professional and helpful. I worked out with the community 4x. This included one 5:30pm, 2 5:30am and one partner WOD. It was a great way to stay on track. The gym is spacious, the equipment organized and clean. The coaches were excellent. There is a shower with towels as well towels for the million burpees we did that week!!!! You know that nervous feeling you get during the partner work out? Not a problem here! My partner was accommodating and supportive of the "Old Man". CrossFit Simplicity is well run gym and very inviting. When I come to visit my friends, knowing CrossFit Simplicity is a 17 min drive from Graham to Burlington, makes visiting a lot more convenient.

Let me tell you, I've never tried crossfit before and I was a little bit intimidated by everything at first- like everybody looks so professional, lifts crazy amount of weights, does all different sort of workout, and here I am, little Asian girl who does not know what she's doing haha. Well, don't you worry! Daniel, Maryann and Felicia are the best. They take their time to teach you and make sure you are doing everything right. I am like a crossfit dummy, so everything is still so new to me, but they've been so patient with me and I love the fact that they encourage and motivate everybody like non stop! I've been going to 5:30am class everyday and I absolutely love it. I really love the vibe here- everybody is so friendly, they all work so hard and you know just by looking at them, you want to be like them! Ah, they are just my inspiration!!! I am so glad I found this place, CFS definitely made my life in Burlington so much better. If you are looking for a great workout place, I highly recommend CrossFit Simplicity!

Not sure if that…read morewas the smartest choice having NEVER done any type of yoga before, but hey, I'm always up for an adventure! I really had no idea what to expect, and it was definitely a unique experience. Pros: *Only $5 if you go to new instructor class times like I did - you can sign up online ahead of time or just register and pay once you get there (arrive early because class was pretty crowded) *Seemed like a wide variety of class times and styles of yoga *You get to use one of their mats for free if it's your first visit (after that I think they charge $2-$3 to rent) *It's definitely an incredible workout, and my entire body was literally drenched with sweat (not exaggerating) after the class was done. *The instructor was understanding and helped me try to modify some poses because I'm so inflexible *Clean studio and changing area *Awesome cold lavender washcloth at end of class - that felt so refreshing - not sure if this is standard at all studios or not Cons: *Being completely new, I felt a little lost without knowing what each pose meant so I had to watch those next to me and try to mimic what they did. A little embarrassing, but I guess you're expected to know these things before coming? *It was incredibly hot - with hot yoga that should be like "no, duh!" but the instructor didn't really pause for any collective water breaks (again, maybe that's frowned upon), but I had to drink my entire jug of water by the time class was over and felt like I was interrupting the flow a bit by doing so. I guess I just wasn't expecting not to be encouraged to hydrate in that kind of environment. *If I were to do it again, for the first time I'd definitely recommend a 30 minute or 15 minute class as an intro, as 1 hour in the heat was quite intense. Not sure if yoga is for me, but it definitely helped release some tension and was a nice change of pace from my normal exercise routine.

The community here is so unbelievably uplifting, that you'll find yourself returning over and over again! I started coming here during Covid, my company was going through a major change, and life was feeling a little overwhelming. I walked in the door, and first, just wanted to be better. The positive encouragement was nice and uplifting, but the more I started coming back, the more the message sunk in and really started to have an effect, not just on my mat, but in my daily life, too. I found my mood improving, no task was impossible, and yes, I can do hard things!

I thought "why not?" especially when most yoga drop in classes are $15+ I ended up going to class nearly everyday while I had this newcomers deal and of course it got me hooked! Started off with the mellow beginners classes and slowly integrated into the vigorous class. Mellow class: very beginner friendly and typically has around 5-15 people attending. Expect slowly, restoring poses. They do have mats that you can use: Vigorous classes: hotter and sweaty! Hard but don't let it be a reason you don't go. It's challenging but a good, healthy challenge. I'm no yogi not even close but I do enjoy these classes :) All of the teachers are very kind and knowledgeable. Can't say enough about this lovely studio. I would recommend it to anyone!

I really hate that you have to pay for parking on days outside of Sunday and therefore, I probably won't go to the studio during a weekday or Saturday for that reason. I understand that Franklin Street is pretty busy, and it's not really their fault but it's just a financial inconvenience. I really wish that the instructor would've been doing the movements with us. It seems like others have taken classes, and the instructor doesn't necessarily participate. I feel like this helps with pacing and understanding when holding a pose is on the brink of being too long (maybe I'm just not as used to holding warrior 1&2 for so long in any classes I've taken but my quads were about to give out. If they aren't doing the pose with us, I don't know if they can tell when a pose is too long. The studio itself was very cute and very clean and well organized with a ton of supplies available for students. I really love their choice of music which was very calming and wasn't anything crazy. I love at the end of class they give you a little eye mask and by the time we went into meditation at the end, I completely forgot where I was and was zoned out, which was awesome. I'll be interested to see how other teachers do later on and how their pacing is. I also completely forgot my mat at home and was very thankful when they offered me a borrowed one!!
