As a newbie, I wasn't sure what to expect. From the moment I entered the studio, I have felt welcome at every step. Sarah the owner is wonderful, and the instructors have been amazing. The wide range of classes, flexible schedules (and access to recorded sessions) makes it incredibly easy to find something each day that fits my need. And Sunday morning beach yoga is the best way ever to start your week! I attribute so much of my successful recovery (the results have been amazing) to the warmth and community this studio provides. Just do it. You won't regret it. Namaste.

This community set me on a positive trajectory where asana practice, breath work, & community continues to be a core part of my everyday like more than ten years later. Every chance I get to visit Portland, along with oysters & lobster rolls, I make GPY a priority stop. Definitely a place that feels like home--I hope it does to you too!

It was the day before the grand opening and everyone was busy putting in those finishing touches. It really makes a difference when a building is built specifically for the purpose of being a training facility, Fit and finish of the place is amazing! The locker room isn't huge but has tons of lockers and a 6 person sauna if you need to cut weight for your next match! There is a huge sparring floor (no shoes, please) complete with long sections of cage panels to practice technique. There is a row of power racks separated by TRX, chinning, Gymnastics Rings stations and heavy bags. There are rubber mats placed in front of each rack station but I think there really needs to be more of a hardwood/plywood platform setup for Olympic and Powerlifting. The turf is easily a third of the floor space and flipping tires, sleds, Concept 2 rowers, medicine balls and kettlebells abound. Tucked under the Mezzanine is a sparring ring and octagon. The Yoga room is on the first floor with a wood floor and mats all laid out and waiting. Then there is the Mezzanine where the treadmills, selectorized machines and dumbbells reside. I didn't get up there as I found plenty to keep me busy on the first floor. Childcare and Spin Studio inhabit the space upstairs above the locker rooms and in house Saco Bay Physical Therapy office. There is an expansive array of group fitness options from Bootcamps, Cardio Kickboxing, Spin, Yoga, TRX and something called EvoFit. I haven't witnessed any of these classes in action yet, but they're all included in the membership. There are a couple of huge video screens that must be for wireless heartrate monitoring. Speaking of monitoring, as an old dude with fading vision there are bright albeit tiny LED clocks around the place but they're lacking seconds display for intervals. The hours are a little on the limited side at the moment. The kicker is, everybody on staff seems really, genuinely enthusiastic and welcoming and that vibe is the secret sauce that permeates the place. There were MMA, and Judo (?) practitioners working skills & conditioning right alongside old dudes larping as athletes (that would be me). This place definitely deserves a look if you're after a real workout in a clean, well laid out space.
