Last review of 2025!!!…read more After a decade of going to the Bluff for yoga, I finally decided to give the studio a chance and I do not regret it! My buddy asked if I'd be down to try it out and I told him that I'd only go if it's a class lead by Matthew Purpura or Yoga Sue.... We went to a session under the guidance of the latter and she was amazing per usual. The vibe is definitely different... more intimate and you find yourself more easily able to leave the world behind and maintain your focus without the craziness of Ocean behind you and the beach in front of you like at the Bluff. This gift of yoga is made possible by donation, so bring some cash and a mat and treat yourself to this amazing experience. I will definitely be attending a class here regularly in 2026!

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Well-maintained donation-based studio with friendly staff…read more I recently started coming here to take my friend Erin Grissom's Ground & Restore yoga classes (Tuesdays 4:30). I hadn't taken a yoga class in years but with age taking its toll, a gentle sustained stretch and relaxation class like the Ground & Restore seemed just the ticket. They have a wide variety of classes, though, for every level and interest--check out their website for details. You sign in at the front desk and pay your instructor directly (Venmo or cash). They are a donation-based studio, which makes their classes very affordable. The facility has been around for a while--maybe since the 1970s?--but is clean and well-maintained. You put your shoes in a cubby by the main studio before entering. The main studio is roomy and serene, with a large window on one side, which looks out on to the courtyard. There are cupboards in the back with blocks, blankets, and straps, and a small room off to the side with more cubbies for your other stuff, like bags, jackets, etc. I've been really enjoying my classes at this studio, and go every chance I get. BTW, this is the studio behind the famous yoga on the bluffs in Bluff Park overlooking the beach, if outdoor yoga is more your thing.

Such a relaxing and peaceful entrance and overall atmosphere. We started with breath work which blew us away, at one point we felt like we were levitating it was so good (and comfy) and then went into the cold plunge, saunas, and hot tub. There was plenty of different types of saunas ranging from red light to two person, and a newer larger sauna. Just a complete serene and calming experience from end to end you forget that this place is someone's backyard. Our 90 minutes flew by, however we were not rushed out or felt hurried to leave. Would absolutely come back again.

The sessions run about 90-minutes all together and they offer various package options from one-time sessions to more opportunities to return for free with the package. You can purchase and make appointments directly on their website as well as through ClassPass. When my friends and I arrived, we were welcomed by Ananta, who checked us in, had us sign waivers online and offered us tea. He led us in the breathwork session first, which was an invigorating yet relaxing experience at the same time. Immediately after the session, Ananta led us to the cold plunge where he gently encouraged us to dip in for about 2-minutes. The water was about 40 degrees and my feet were tingling and nearly numb by the time I got out. We did it though and it awakened our senses and got our blood circulating! We then, had the option of dipping in the hot tub or going in the saunas. I warmed up in the jacuzzi, then spent some time in the outdoor barrel steam sauna and infrared sauna. Before I knew it, our 90-minute session came to an end. They have showers for us to rinse off and I left with glowing skin and a lighter spirit. I will definitely be back for more healing and rejuvenation! Free street parking in the residential neighborhood.

The club is led by Aimee Echo, a versatile yoga therapist whose instruction is marked by deep knowledge and warmth. What makes this club stand out is the variety of tools and methods offered for experiencing one's body and mind. Offerings range from Mysore-Style Ashtanga and the more accessible Active Series to specialized studies like the Yoga Sutra and the Winter Home Retreat. Living up to its name, the club consistently fosters a welcoming community. It feels like a genuine antidote to the demands of modern life--a space to simply breathe, move, and reconnect with oneself. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to establish or deepen a steady practice.

Although the name is "Root Chakra Healing Center," this place is an "All Chakra Healing Center"…read morewhich helps to heal you from the first on up. It is a very welcoming place for other healers and spiritually talented souls to come and gather to share their wisdom and practice their gifts. As both someone who enjoys receiving spiritual support as well as giving it here, I thoroughly appreciate this place and the people who fill it with lovingkind energy. Shannon picks out wonderful crystals and stones with great energy to sell, sells various handcrafted jewelry pieces, makes perfume elixirs like Empowerment for the third eye chakra and a unicorn perfume, and provides education on tarot and manifestation. Reiki, angel talisman healing, angel guidance, chakra healing, energetic alignment, and soul journey roadmapping are a few of the jewels to be found here. The soul journey roadmapping can be seen as someone on their spiritual path stopping in to ask for directions. This is primarily what readings do for people. You've heard all the jokes about people being too stubborn with pride about asking for directions and taking the long, winding route on a road trip and people being smart enough to simply stop to ask where they are. This is a spiritual stop to ask for directions! Welcome!

Shannon was so pleasant, warm, and kind. I was struggling with acne at the time and her intuitive guidance has been helpful to me beyond anything that I've ever tried before. Her Reiki healing session was light and loving and ultimately transformative. I have returned to the Chakra Shanti several times to meet with Shannon and to attend weekly groups. I'm so glad I found this place, and so grateful to be able to return to it weekly. A truly open community.

I personally can't get enough of the Hot Yoga with Sandi! * The amenities are plentiful with towels, hairdryers, lockers and plenty of spaces throughout with everything we need. * The service is great. The Club Manager, Ricky, excels at taking care of the members. * And, there's plenty of free parking so you're never stressed looking for a place for your car or bike. This is a fantastic facility. Check it out!

I've been a member here for a couple of months, but a recent experience with their cancellation…read morepolicy was really disappointing. I was on the waitlist for a 7:30 PM class and was only added at 7:00 PM--giving me just 30 minutes' notice. That evening, I came down with a fever. Wanting to be considerate and avoid getting other members sick, I had my partner go to the front desk in person to explain the situation and cancel. Despite this, I was charged a $10 cancellation fee. When I followed up, I was told they have a strict 'zero exceptions' policy. While I understand having rules around attendance, penalizing members for acting responsibly when ill, especially after being added from a waitlist on such short notice, is poor customer service. The facility and classes are great but this really rubbed me the wrong way.
