I truly believe healers need healers, teachers need teachers etc. as we are all students and teachers in this life. Their beautiful lights shine through in their work and you can tell they really enjoy what they do and how it assists their clients. Afterwards, I felt clear and calm yet energized in an ethereal way. Our house energy even feels better now, a week later! Also, I could physically feel where the energy centers in my body were being cleared and balanced during the session. I hope to have them back for a business event. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a peaceful, joyous and unique healing experience! Namaste, Ivy

Carla Samson is a shining light. She helped me to clearly see my mission in life. And find a gentle…read morestrength I had lost. I had let my fitness diminish over the past few years and I was feeling a bit stuck in life, at a big crossroads. I signed up for a 9 morning class, learning The Samson System. We met at a sheltered area in a local park. Talked, learned, and shared for the first half of class. Then, onward to a spirited movement on a path through the woods. Coming back for a closing ceremony at the end of each class. She made it play. Not a workout, a play-out! My heart feels strong again. She guided me to new awareness of my relationships with big aspects of life such as: health, family, work, connectedness and loyalty. We looked a lot at how we hold some things as work and others as play. By week 8 my whole life is alive and transformed, re-invigorated. My 8 sessions (so far) have been truly transformational. I am not saying that lightly. This is not yoga as your conceptions hold it. This is what you have been seeking, A true growth experience, guided by a loving, caring person who knows how to lead you where you need to go. I also did a One-on-One private mentoring session where she enabled me to see my path clearly. I know my path now. I strongly recommend a private mentoring session with her. Her inner beauty eclipses her outer beauty. She has done her own deep inner work. She is clear, and she did not project her issues onto the participants in the program. You've got to experience your own energy that you will feel when inspired by Carla. Wow!

This Anusara studio is called yoga house simply because it is yoga held in a house. One cannot say…read moreenough good things about Michelle as a yoga instructor. She is enthusiastic, knowledgeable, humble, encouraging and able to challenge any student at any level. The space is a calm oasis in the frenzy of everyday life. The space is soothing and one feels supported in advancing one's own practice. Michelle's little stories at the beginning of every class are also rather sweet, touching and often funny.

The "Yoga for Athletes" class has helped me prepare for marathon running and kept my body toned and injury free! The instructor, Michelle Bond, has an amazing athletic career and a unique perspective on blending the teachings of yoga to support any of your athletic endeavors. She is incredibly talented at differentiating to fit the needs of all yogis from beginners to pros! I originally attended the class the keep my hips and legs happy while I run, but I find my spirit is lifted when I leave Michelle's class. She has helped me to bring peace and understanding in my life and my body. Each class has a focus for your body and mind- tone your body; de-stress your life. She has helped me the most with chronic pain I have from my poor posture and grinding my teeth. By understanding how my body works and supporting my individual needs I am more aware of how to keep pain at bay. Small class size in a quaint setting allows for each member to get individual attention and REALLY learn what yoga is all about. Drop in a check out a class!

As a beginner, it has been great to have someone paying attention to my form and modifying moves to make sure that I am doing them safely. After about a month of taking classes my back pain was gone and I feel so much stronger in my entire body. I have been training with Lisa for the past 4 months and she continues to switch up the routines and keep my workouts challenging. I highly recommend Lisa!

I came to Jazzercise because of a Groupon. I've never been a big fan of group exercise classes,…read morebut I was being lazy on my own and wanted to try something different. Jazzercise was just the thing I needed! Classes are an hour long but I'm never watching the clock - the variety within the routines keeps me entertained. I'm not a very coordinated person (you don't want to see me on a dance floor) but after a class or two I felt pretty confident with the routines. Instructors make themselves accessible to answer questions or just chat before and after classes - nearly every time I took a class with a new instructor, she made a point of introducing herself to me. And one of the greatest things about this particular location is that there are several classes each day - so there are no excuses for not fitting it into your schedule! (Though I've certainly managed to make excuses for the past couple of months... that speaks to my laziness and not the Jazzercise Center!) My Groupon passes expire this month, but I hope to join with a year-long membership in 2013... a great deal if you attend classes more than a few times each month.

Really nice small but mighty class-based gym in West AA…read more Really friendly community atmosphere and beautifully decorated interior. I have been enjoying the yoga classes here for the past month. Many of the classes are during business hours, but some are after 5pm or before 8am. It follows that tends to be (mostly) a community of active retirees, but there is also a mix of younger people who attend classes. Everyone is super friendly and tries to learn your name and people have conversations between or after class, so I think it would be a good place to make new friends in the community. I saw also they are running a special something like $100 for the month of July and August 2023- unlimited classes for NEW clients only. You might want to check with them to make sure I got that right, though!

I attended the…read moregrand opening (I heard about by word of mouth) and used the free classes in my swag bag to try out a couple classes. Yoga and Marie's circuit. After these two classes, I have to say I really like this place. Simple, new, clean and inviting. The studio space has the right balance between encouraging physical exertion and active relaxation. The yoga studio is separated from the active space by the lobby. Terribly efficient. Two yoga rooms, heated floors, and large windows that look into a serene wooded area. The fitness machines and cycle room are on the other side. Vinyasa yoga with Robbin was fantastic. It had been a long time since my last class but I had no problem following along or modifying as needed. Marie's circuit is a great 60 min toning class with compound movements and 90 second cardio bursts to keep your heart rate up. I have signed up for a 10-class package. Classes can be used for any of the classes offered. Full schedule and descriptions can be found on their website. Nice new locker room, full shower, towels and water available throughout the facility. This is the type of place that makes you look forward to your next visit. Everyone I have met are professional and inviting. Check out the schedule on the website and sign up for your first class for a free.
