I have been practicing yoga for almost 12 years (certified and concentrating in ashtanga for four)…read moreand had spent time in Mysore, Pune and Thailand with some very excellent and giving teachers. Since moving to AZ I have been researching studios, calling, attending and conversing with different practitioners. I never disclose my previous experience, instead presenting a guiless attitude. I had an unfortunate phone conversation with a woman who said she was Mishell, the owner of Eightlim yoga. In this conversation I asked about her schedule, style and fees (not mentioning I had already reviewed her website). In this conversation she misrepresented her studio's offerings: 1) That she offered many classes convenient to my schedule (at the time of this review most of EIghtlim's classes are scheduled from 9 AM to 5 PM). 2) She was unable to define her own cerifications or lineage of teaching, referring to Eric Faquir (a Google Search brings up a website from 2005 where his most recent cert is as a Hypnotist) 3) She quoted a monthly fee of $130, and when I mentioned I heard of an introductory offer of $45, she backpedalled and said, "Oh yes, I forgot about that one..."?!? When I asked where her "Intermediate" offerings (as described on her website) fit in relation to Jois' Secondary series or Classical Ashtanga she became short and in an irate tone said, "I'm not going to go through all of this over the phone." Perhaps she was having a bad day, but not very Shanti. I don't think I'll be dropping in to Eightlim anytime soon.

This is by far the best yoga studio that I have ever been to. Mishell (the owner) is a wonderful…read moreteacher and is very helpful when doing new poses. She doesn't do a same "routine" every classes, which I like because its fun to try new things and it mixes it up. This isn't "hot yoga," but the room is kept a little warm and you can get quite sweaty if there are a lot of people in the class. While the yoga is stellar, the medicine ball class is THE BEST workout I have ever done. I wish my fitness boot camp were like this. I was sore for 2 solid days afterwards, but the good sore where I justified eating ice cream because I did such a good workout. The only reason I docked this studio a star is because of their prices. I had a cheap month thanks to a Groupon, but the normal monthly cost of this studio is more than my student loan payments. I LOVED the classes/teachers/variety/location of this studio, but I cannot justify spending well over $100/month to keep going here. I guess I'll keep trying my luck at 24 Hour Fitness? eek.

I missed my class because I couldn't find it unfortunately :( I think I may know where it is now but honestly still unsure , I'd give yourself 20-30 min of just buffer room to find it.

Please 3x your buffer room time to find !

It is rare in that it both has a soul and is run exceptionally well. Everyone from the owner and teachers to desk staff put their heart into the Shop, and it shows. The owner Ashley does an amazing job at creating a warm and inclusive environment where you can get your yoga fix, get your workout on in barre or spin, and have fun and make friends in the process. They have regular community events, teacher trainings, and a stacked class schedule with something for everyone. Teachers are knowledgeable and welcoming - this studio attracts and creates top tier instructors without the bullsh*t. Ashley, Justin, Jenny, Kandi, Anaiz, Mo, Sara... I'd keep going, but I can't list everyone and there literally is not a teacher here I wouldn't recommend. Big plus that the space is beautiful and in a great location near AJ's, good restaurants, and shopping. I work from home, and for almost 5 years I have considered this studio my home away from home. I always leave feeling happy and supported. If you want to do something good for your body and mind, and be part of a high quality low drama community, support local and come here!!

Love this studio! I've tried at least six different Pilates…read morestudios, and this one is by far my favorite. It's conveniently located in a beautiful building with easy parking and a spotless, welcoming space. The classes are small (only six reformers!), so it feels almost like personal training. Every instructor I've met has been amazing -- each with their own unique style -- but the workouts are consistently challenging in the best way. And I always leave feeling like I got a great workout! The owner is kind, responsive, and clearly cares about the experience. Booking through the app is super easy, the pricing is fair, and the unlimited package is absolutely worth it -- I'll be upgrading soon! Couldn't recommend this studio more!

The first class nearly did me in & I kept hopping in & out of the room, for a breather. B/c it's 105-106 degrees. Bonus: teacher hands out ice cold towels throughout class. How generous! My second class felt so much better, like I could tolerate that intensity of heat better. & the teacher was so sweet to notice my empty water bottle & filled it up for me. The ONLY thing that's a little challenging is that, b/c there are so many restaurants in that little plaza, the parking is seriously bananas around dinner time - like from 5:30-7:30 so I recommend getting there early! Overall, this place is clean, friendly, & a fantastic hot yoga workout.

Giving 3 stars because it's a 1 star for cleanliness but 5 stars for the quality of the workout…read more I've been coming to Radi8 for several years and have held off on making this review because I genuinely do love the practice. The workout is amazing, the instructors are all great, and I always leave feeling rejuvenated. At the same time, I consistently walk into the studio and feel grossed out. The bathrooms absolutely reek -- there has to be a major plumbing issue that needs serious attention. The studio itself needs a major facelift. Every time I look up at the ceiling, I'm grossed out by the vents that are covered in rust and mold. The humidifiers look old and the lights seem like they're on their last leg. I fear that if they don't invest the money to make it feel like a clean, safe space for people, they'll start losing loyal customers (like me). A fresh paint job, new fixtures and clean ventilation would go a long way. I really hope that this review lands in the inbox of management and they take it seriously.

The day I…read morearrived to my friends house, I looked up yoga studios in the area, and found that Svaha Yoga Center had the grand opening that weekend, so I decided to try it out. The moment I walked in the studio it just felt good, I loved the clean and modern look, and perfect natural light. I was welcomed by Katherine De Boda the owner and teacher. She's a wonderful spirit and a fantastic teacher with clear instructions that helped me further my yoga practice in just a week of practicing with her. I have been doing yoga for 8 years off and on, and have felt stuck in my practice, I am amazed how much I learned in that week of practice, and am again excited about my yoga practice, and learning more about the eastern philosophy and yoga in general. The interest in eastern philosophy and Sanskrit may have been triggered by teacher Matt Rulli, I enjoyed his "Intro Into Primary Series" (Ashtanga Yoga) class as well. My favorite class hands down is the Sunday "Ujjayi Flow" with live bongo drummer, usually taught by Katherine. Highly recommend this studio, I miss it already.
