I tried Yoga for the first time two years ago and I am so happy that my first experiences were at…read moreStudio Bamboo. They have been so welcoming, encouraging, and helpful! I have absolutely loved every experience I have had in the studio or practicing with one of their instructors at an event in the community. Most of my physical activity involves running and I am definitely not anywhere close to an advanced yogi. I enjoy it for the stretch and the gift of just being able to be somewhere totally in the moment without distractions. It really is a gift to myself that I don't give nearly enough. If I had time to add another activity onto my weekly schedule, I wouldn't hesitate to be a member. Thankfully, their drop-in process is easy and the ability to buy class packs makes it easy to come in whenever my schedule allows. I never feel like an "outsider" when I drop in, a vibe I have gotten from other studios. Peyton and Ann have been my favorite go-to instructors, but everyone has been wonderful in their own unique teaching style. I personally like a little humor in my yoga. They have so many varieties of classes for all levels of student. One day maybe I'll get adventurous and branch away from yin, restorative, foundations, and yoga for athletes classes. For now, that's where you will find me though- each class helps during a different point in my training cycle & year. This studio has a full bathroom with showers. They also already have everything you need to practice including straps, blocks, blankets, towels, and bolsters. They also have a handful of mats to borrow if you forgot one or are just giving yoga a try for the first time. When you enter the studio you first check in with the desk before putting your belongings in the cubbies directly across from the desk. The receptionists have always been friendly and helpful. There are three rooms, it is helpful to go ahead and ask which one your class will be in when you check in. They usually assume you already know- which maybe I should for some of the classes I've taken a few times. I still like to ask! This studio offers a huge variety of classes and class times. They have been perfect for a casual novice person like myself; but they also offer instructor training and advanced workshops. They have kids classes, barre classes, pilates, and probably a few others that I don't even know about! I've checked out a few other studios just to compare and this checks all the boxes and just feels like home every time I drop in for a class.

I've been taking reformer classes with Kris for a few months now, and she is an absolute professional. After a challenging pregnancy, she helped me put my body back together, and I now feel stronger, leaner, and nearly free from my sciatica issues. Kris is the perfect blend of easygoing, friendly, and professional. The classes are small, with a semi-private feel that ensures personalized attention for everyone. Additionally, the studio is exceptionally clean and relaxing--it's almost like a spa!

I can't say enough great things about Hot House Yoga. I've been practicing here for the past year…read moreand have felt like part of the HHY family ever since starting. All the teachers hold at least a 200hr RYT certification, many holding 500hr certs. The heating system is state of the art, best I've experienced in a hot yoga studio. The cork floors are cleaner (and softer) than wood. Some hot studios have strange odors, which is not the case with HHY. There are classes to meet all levels of practice, all in the Hatha/vinyasa style. There are 60, 75, and 90 minute classes, as well as 45 minute beginner classes. They just opened up their third studio up in Richmond in early 2012, and I've had the pleasure of going to each of their studios, to include the Virginia Beach studio on Laskin Road. HHY offers teacher training, as well as several workshops and classes. Pros: Mat towels for use Shower towels Plastic bags for wet clothing, please recycle Q-tips Mouthwash Mint Lifesavers Lockers with keys clothing/mat/towel sales, including Lululemon, Prana, and Manduka Cons: Men's changing/shower room is small, gets pretty crowded between classes

So far, I have only been to classes with Catherine and Elaine who were both incredibly kind and knowledgeable, meet you where you are, willing to help with any questions, and make you feel right at home. The classes tend to be smaller which can be great for people earlier in their yoga journey or have been out of practice for a while. The people who attend the classes also feel very kind and genuine. This place truly feels like a no judgement zone, just as a yoga studio should be. Highly recommend this spot for yogis of all levels. So grateful to have found this gem of a studio‍

I still highly recommend this studio for any hot yoga and fitness lovers! I recently took the Yoga Body Boot Camp for the first time and I really enjoyed the challenge of this class! I'm looking forward to taking it routinely to increase strength and confidence within the flow taught by Lily. It's not for the faint of heart, but I highly recommend! First Review in 2018: After not practicing yoga for years, i gave the Fundamentals class a try. It was exactly what i needed to get me back into the swing of things! Ashley instructed us so peacefully through the hour and encouraged us to work hard but modify what we needed for ourselves. Such a welcoming atmosphere- i can't wait to go back!

After doing all three, I believe the it's the same temperature for all classes. Each class I've gone to were pretty full. I don't know if it's the way the room is structured in an L and not a square/rectangle or the windows being covered by curtains and I could see outside some... I was mentally distracted in that place. This may be a me thing. Instructors were really good. I did go to a FUNdamentals class on 6/26 (whoever was teaching that day) I absolutely enjoyed it. He gave excellent cues that really helped me. Any instructor that gives good cues to help visualize a pose is a win in my books. All classes were a good workout. You will come out sweaty and feeling glad you went. This is a contender in my books to sign up for membership.

I must say after coming here....I have a renewed love for Virginia Beaches!…read more Located a short drive, 30 minutes south of the "ever popular and crowded" Virginia Beach District, is Sandbridge Beach. This beach is unique gem. I almost didn't want to write this review because I wanted to keep it a secret to myself and share with no one. lol This beach is everything...and provides all one needs for a relaxing beach getaway. It is a secluded beach hideaway of pristine waters, sand dunes and sea oats whispering in the wind...in which if you are quiet enough...it almost sounds like waves, wind and sea are all having a conversation with themselves -- you excluded. It is a quiet, relaxing and peaceful community where you can truly slow down and unwind on your vacation. The beaches are clean and the waters are perfect...no kelp, debris or rocks. The Memorial Day Holiday weekend was my first visit to this beach and I am forever hooked! It was just what I need. I came here with a group of friends. We rented one of the many "Baller" beach house rentals and had the best of times...without the need for anything but us and the beach. If you are looking to get outdoors and have a more scenic beach vacation...Sanbridge Beach is your place. The marshes and open waters of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park make for great kayaking, hiking, and fishing. Or,.....just call it a day become a beach bum on the beach without being bothered by anyone but you and the crashing waves. After coming here....I don't think I will ever go to Virginia Beach again. Besides, being a short ride from Sandbridge Beach...we found it really cool to head into Virginia Beach for the nightlife but stay overall in Sandbridge. There are a couple of pizza-bar spots, shops and local business to meet your needs where you literally don't have to leave. In all, we couldn't have stumbled on a better beach. Sandbridge Beach is by far, one of my favorites and best beaches surrounding all of the DMV -- DC/Maryland/Virginia! I am literally online....checking for properties, pizza delivery boy/bartender jobs and trying to figure out how I can trade in the hustle n' bustle of the city and my corporate grind....for a piece of life at this place! Most definitely will be back!!

Sandbridge Beach is a bit of an oasis. If you've been to the Outer Banks of NC it has a similar…read morefeel. It has rental homes, second homes and condos. The beach and city come alive in the Summer. Parking has never been an issue at Sandbridge Beach. Locate Little Island Park where there is a massive amount of space. The area boast shelters, restrooms and a playground. The beach is kept clean and very family friendly. The wave action to surf is hit or miss. I'm not a surfer, so I only hear this from friends that it's a good area to learn surfing. Swimming is permitted, however guards work the Memorial Day to Labor Day span with shoulder months depending on the weather. The pier to fish off of is one of the most popular locations for locals. Bring your own equipment and bait. There is no where to launch a boat from at the park. There are a few restaurants and even food trucks, but not much at all with regards to eating out. Your only 15-20 minutes from many food options. This goes for shopping of merchandise and groceries. There are small mom and pop shops only. Simply Steamed has been a recent favorite. There are so many reasons why Virginia Beach residents feel as though they live in paradise. Our beaches point blank rock and few would dispute that the city knows how to take excellent care of them for our tourist and locals alike. Just because the kids are back in school does not mean you cannot take advantage. Get out and enjoy all there is to offer at Little Island Park and the surrounding area.
