Her knowledge is seemingly never-ending, and I am overjoyed every day she offers her class. I am grateful to have found her--if it weren't for Betty Jo, I don't know what I would do!

Starting with the…read morefacilities, the building is always clean which I always find impressive with all the chalk being used. They always have a great range of climbs whether I'm bringing a friend who's a beginner or want to challenge myself with some harder or more complex climbs. Additionally they set new climbs pretty often but do it based on 4 different areas so that if there's a climb u need a couple weeks to work on, you have plenty of time while other areas are being changed. Every experience I've had with the staff has been very positive and they are always eager to help whether I need a recommendation for new shoes or I'm stuck on a climb and want to pick someone's brain for my next move. The membership also gives you access to classes like yoga, which I haven't explored yet but I'm sure they are all great as well. The membership is also reasonably priced and they even offer discounts for students which is nice.

Great deal and after that has passed, they offer varying packages for classes or drop-in is $15/class. Before I get in to the "meat" of my review, I'll preface by saying I am/was an avid Bikram Yoga fan and had been taking Bikram classes for about 5 years on and off in Chicago and Pittsburgh. My review will be comparing it to Bikram as that's my only point of reference for yoga. Unfortunately, the Bikram Lawrenceville location and the former Mt. Lebo location were inconvenient for me so I was in search of a comparable form of yoga. I was hesistant to try a new form of yoga but it was definitely time - mentally and physically. While the format of Pure Power Yoga is very different from Bikram, it's very challening and can be tailored to your level of fitness/yoga practice. The room is heated at 90 degrees rather than Bikram's 100-110 degrees. So rather than sweating upon entering the room like in Bikram, you start sweating after a few poses in. It's faster paced than Bikram but you don't stay in the moves as long which makes it more fast-paced. The postures are different but share some similarities. I don't always understand the names of the poses they are saying but can recognize some aspects of the poses when I see other students or the teacher do them. Although I still expereience some discomfort at this new style of yoga...what can I say I'm a creature of familiarity and habit, I won't dock the place any stars because it is a challenging workout physically while also calming the mind (same benefits I felt I was getting with Bikram). This may sound crazy, but I miss the strictness of Bikram (no talking in the room, no/limited sips of water, must try to do the poses) and the over the top heat of Bikram. It felt more disciplined to me but I'm sure Power Yoga has that aspect to it the further you get in to the practice. It takes time to get used to change and although I'm still getting used to the different format, pace and poses of this form of yoga, I'll feel that it's a great workout. The studio is kept clean and the staff is extremely friendly. Sarah is always welcoming, kind and supportive and it's appreciated as a new student to this form of yoga!

It wasn't until I joined OVCrossfit that things started to change. Not only does OVCrossfit offer a wide range of class types aside from regular crossfit workouts (such as the Quickfit program, Bootcamp classes, and Yoga to name a few), but the coaching you receive each and every day is what really shapes you into a better athlete. And no, I never thought I could ever consider myself an athlete of any sorts until I started coming here. The coaches are experienced, knowledgeable, encouraging, supportive, and personally help get you to where you want to be. I'm doing things now that I never imagined I would be able to do. I have lost body fat, gained strength and endurance, and best of all, I gained a community of friendship and support.
