Soft lighting, calm music, and high ceilings. And there are also classes for everyone. I have only tried the mat pilates classes, but I do think they are a great workout. I can't wait to come back and try yoga soon! This place is also conveniently located next to Forage. A yoga+bagel morning sounds like an excellent way to spend a morning in Lewiston.

It made me calm just walking through the door. It is narrowish and we were pretty close in rows across - sometimes that happens. It was absolutely okay. There were plenty of props and mats available. The class was very good, and the instructor (again, calm and...) competent. We enjoyed it - from beginner to a little more familiar- none of us "experts" per se. One of the ladies did slip down a step, coming back from the bathroom. She wasn't hurt but apparently that one step is a little "off" for spacing and "that happened before". Not sure what might be done to help keep visitors and the business safe(r).

Shanna is wonderful in the way she can sense what you need, and she paid close attention to areas I'd said were particularly troublesome (knees and hips) and worked challenge them just enough. It's full-body attention with varying amounts of pressure and stretching, and the warm compresses help to loosen things up too; I left feeling taller, extended, and buoyant. The essential oils used are light and natural (I can tell these were made in-house, with no overpowering synthetic scent). And the space itself is beautiful and serene, with the most comfortable padded massage mattress I've ever been on. I'm sorry that I don't live closer to come more regularly, but I hope to visit again! There are other treatments available too, along with yoga classes (including aerial, something I've yet to try). Highly recommended!

The beauty and serenity that Shanna Breton, owner and certified instructor in both yoga and Thai bodywork, has created in this urban space, gives the community a welcome respite from the hectic daily grind. Offering Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga, Reflexology, as well as meditation and a host of other services, Shanna embodies all of the qualities that i would expect and want to find in a yoga studio. I feel so very fortunate to have found this lovely place and I would highly recommend it to everyone that I know.

This is a wholehearted shout-out to Pasha Marlowe of Roots and Springs!She is a holistic personal…read moretrainer...she is my trainer...and she is a beautiful breath of fresh air in the crowded field of wellness. Pasha stands out. She turns the old stories upside down. I never thought I would work with a personal trainer. But Pasha is different...and I decided I'm worth the investment to meet my wellness goals as an entrepreneur and mother in my mid-40s! I came to Pasha with some injuries (shoulder issues and SI Joint Dysfunction) and a desire to get stronger and to find relief from chronic stress. I was feeling frustrated because although I live a pretty active life, I have not been able to stick to a strength training routine at home. I don't have time to drive the 30 minutes to the gym (and do not enjoy myself in these settings). Pasha worked with me one-on-one to develop a sensible, fun, and customized program that I could stick to in the comfort of my own HOME . She is incredibly encouraging, highly intuitive, and wise. I feel so nurtured and supported in her presence. She has helped me see just how active I already am, and has helped me celebrate in a new way. Rather than beating myself up about what I'm NOT doing, I'm focusing on what I AM doing. This mindset shift has allowed me to look forward to my exercises, and I naturally want to keep going and see how strong I can get. I've had sessions in the studio, but also a Zoom video session where I felt like she was right in my home with me! The whole session was recorded too. Amazing! So during those times that I can't drive to the studio, I can Zoom with Pasha and stay on track. I highly recommend working with Pasha. She has also just launched an amazing program: ROAR with LAUGHTER"

Katey is so easy going and down to earth that I immediately relaxed after meeting her. She genuinely loves and cares about the wide variety of people who come to her studio, and after finding out I was new in town, she would recommend me an event each week that I could go to and meet people if I wanted to. Thanks to her I discovered the Alan Day Community Garden, where I enjoy caring for my garden plot and "sneaking" into the greenhouse to eat fresh peas, and I discovered a community at the Lights Out Gallery where I've made some incredible friends and had the honor of helping Pamela Anne Moulton work on some incredible larger than life sculptures, with the help of my little dog. Katey taught me it doesn't matter if you can't do any of the poses. Yoga is about getting in touch with yourself and appreciating the body and mind you have. I recommend Halls Pond Healing Arts to anyone who is interested in yoga, new in town, old in town, wants to try something new, or would appreciate adding an hour of relaxation to their week. She really is the benchmark for yoga greatness!
