The owner is just as warm and inviting as her studio is. There are a variety of classes to choose from including evening classes for those who aren't able to attend until after work. Benefits of the environment is there are plenty of focal points so as you balance you don't need to stare at a blank wall or uncomfortably in your instructor's eyes. There are bricks, straps and blankets you can borrow. There's ample floor space so you can have your mat just far enough to warrior without worrying about hitting your neighbor while shifting.

I have to say I just went in to the Middleton location to sign up for a monthly membership. The…read moredoor was open and when I walked in the gal behind the counter gave me a "you don't belong here look" and said "Hello" with the tone of a question. I asked if they were open because it felt really weird and uncomfortable and she said I'm just about to close up. It really isn't warm and welcoming from my first impression. I'll maybe get a pass instead to make sure it's not like what I just experienced.

I've been practicing for over a decade but took 2 years off due to car accidents and previous…read morestudio shut down in COVID. New in Madison area and wanted to find a good studio to jumpstart. I've always preferred hot classes, Bikram style, like 105'F with 50%+ humidity. I'd love a good sweat and I found easier to relax and stretch in the heated environment. Learned there are 4 locations and Middleton was the one I attended. Initial impression was cute place with vibrant color. They offer showers and a waiting area to read/decompress with hot tea and filtered water. I signed up online and showed up for my 1st hot class. Parking wasn't hard and it was free. Walked upstairs and checked in at the counter. I saw members can get free towels; otherwise, it's $1 or $2 depending on the size. There were about 20 students in the class and I ended up towards the opposite side of the entrance which it isn't the best spot. I had a hard time hearing the instructor (no mic and loud music). Given it's my first class, I thought the instructor should ask who's there for the 1st time and if there were any injuries. No one asked so I just have to modify as needed due to my herniated spine. Given this is my 1st class in almost 2 years, I took it slowly and participated as much as I could which was still over 80% of the class time. I didn't sweat at all. The room was warm but definitely not hot or humid. My mat towel was dry which was different from all of my previous practices. I later found out the temperature was set to around 90'F and no one knows if a humidity level was turned on. I'm glad that I went as it was a good way to try out but I'll go back again to try a couple more classes before deciding if I want to be a member.

She combines gentle strokes with pretty intense pressure, so her massage is relaxing and therapeutic at the same time. She is currently doing massages in a specially equipped room at her own house and I couldn't ask for more: the room was gorgeously decorated and the playlist she put on made me forget about all my troubles. Last but not least she charges a pretty reasonable price compared to other places in Madison area. Will definitely be back!

I had done a little yoga on my own, but had never really gone to a class. I met Kellie Kaddatz through personal training, and she encouraged me to try one. Since then, I've gone every week - sometimes two or three times, if I can fit it in! Kellie is a wonderful teacher, and she creates a very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. She offers Peaceful Flow as well as Power Flow classes, so there are options for beginners as well as more advanced students. Mats and props are available for use at the studio. I can't say enough good things about Kellie. She's kind and caring, and wants to show you how yoga can improve your life. She's truly someone that has helped me to change mine. She offers her classes on a pay-what-you-can basis, so there's no reason not to come by. I'm very glad that I did.
