I love Laughing River Yoga. I'm especially a huge fan of Emily Garrett, one of the founders…read more I started seeing Emily for one-on-one yoga lessons when I was going through a particularly hard time of my life. I started these lessons thinking I was taking physical exercise classes that would help me strengthen and work around some rather bad injuries I'd sustained in an accident. Instead, Emily opened up a new world to me by subtly and slowly introducing me to things like mindfulness and being present. Yes, we practiced yoga postures, but it was through becoming aware of my thoughts, repetitive patterns, old habits, while taking on these postures that I began to slowly experience change. Emily is kind, patient, caring and steady. She's such a great teacher because she herself went through her own period of inner growth and self awareness (as I'm sure she'd say she and all of us are going through every day of our lives) and wants to share what she's learned with others. Every yoga teacher is on a journey. I know several in the Burlington area. It seems like one in five people you meet up here are certified. If I had to choose just one to practice with it would be Emily. She's not trying to prove anything. Yoga is more to her than a set of difficult physical postures or achieving inhuman flexibility. Relative to most yoga instructors she is wise beyond her years, balanced and aware. I think she's fabulous. I'm writing this review because I love Laughing River Yoga and Emily Garrett, but also because I saw a one star review by a woman that said some rather uncharitable things. She was visiting from out of town and went to the studio once. It's possible that she had a bad experience. We all have bad days, off days. No one is perfect. But I know with complete certainty that yoga and the Laughing River practice is extremely important to Emily and her staff and I would recommend them whole heartedly. There are several yoga studios in the Burlington area. Visit them and decide which one is right for you. I'm not practicing yoga currently, but if I were, I would go to Laughing River and practice with Emily Garrett whenever possible.

Where to I start. I like to get the uncomfortable out of the way so let's talk business. A single…read moreclass is fifteen dollars and that is very reasonable. Now let's talk spectacular! The introductory offer which I opted for, get this, thirty-nine dollars for one month unlimited yoga. Thats right $39.00. Unlimited. That is the best deal I have ever heard of for any yoga studio, and as you will see from my review this place is a spectacular yoga studio. So the deal is a steal. The regular rates are still outstanding in my opinion. The price break starts on the ten class card at $130 but in my opinion the best deal is the regular unlimited pass. For $79 you get unlimited in person and online classes. Two classes per week and you have a great deal. Three and is once again is a steal. There are numerous other options including an option which will allow you to assist LRY in reaching out to the less fortunate in our community. Since we are discussing business let's talk turkey. The website (often my least liked element of any business.) is well thought out and comprehensible even for a technophobe like me. The studio is well organized and I found the studio manager to be highly professional and approachable. She even had the aplomb to deal with me when I was upset about an issue, not LRY connected directly, and did so in a very proactive manner. Top notch business including a commitment to bringing yoga to persons who might not be able to afford or connect with the many benefits of yoga. I am fairly new to yoga but I have been to several studios. Other studios I have been to will remain unnamed because I don't want anyone to mistake this review as a criticism of them. The instruction at LRY is the best I have ever encountered. I have yet to find an instructor who is not well versed in every aspect of their particular yoga style. I will not name any of them because this would leave someone out, my memory being shady at best. On top of being obvious experts who take their craft seriously they also are multifaceted. They will bend over backwards to see you get the maximum physical emotional and spiritual benefits of yoga. If you are a beginner this studio is highly recommended for you! I would rank this studio as having top to top (no bottom here) the best instruction I have seen so far in my yoga journey. Laughing River Yoga is conveniently located in the historic Chace Mill and the studio is gorgeous. I love industrial space conversion and this fits that dynamic for me. The feel of the space is warm and inviting and one would think the prices much higher considering the luxurious space and design. I forgot to mention. During the limited duration warm weather season in Vermont you have access to classes offered at the gorgeous Burlington Surf Club location. Yoga in the midst of nature overlooking the Adirondacks and Lake Champlain, yes included in the price of the aforementioned monthly passes. Just as incredible as it sounds! In conclusion let me state three things. 1: Instruction, Instruction, Instruction. Without quality teachers a yoga studio is just a room to exercise in. 2: The prices are not just reasonable and it is impressive that they offer so much to the community and still not charge much more. I have paid $30 and up for classes that weren't nearly up to the standards of LRY. 3: The feeling of LRY if you will, is quite positive and uplifting. I have never left and felt I was let down, rather I always leave, often worn out, but buoyed by a sense of joy and presence that is most affirming and helps guide me in my blossoming yoga journey.

My experience with both instructors was awful. My daughter came out of dance pale and dehydrated…read moreand panicked. When she explained to me she has asked her instructor twice for a water break and she was told no. The children (my daughter is 8) have to keep water bottles outside dance room due to spillage however my daughter was told that she wasn't allowed to open the door and this was all confirmed during my discussion with the owner. So not only did they not let her have water they denied her freedom to leave the room to meet her needs. I of course un-enrolled her and suggest no parent who regards their child's SAFETY attend this studio. This owner wasn't in the least concerned about this which shows it is frequent that they deny water breaks. Not even an adult does heavy physical activity for an hour without hydration if they want to be safe. After trying to say this has never happened in 13 years the owner admitted that it's not a concern or issue that her instructor did this to young kids. The instructor admitted to denying my daughter water and denied exit of the dance room. These people do not care about the safety of your children.

As we age we lose site on how important strength and flexibility are to every day comfort and health. This will also make me stronger and my balance will improve. One of the key factors is that they take time for you and listen to your needs. I highly recommend Essex Physical Therapy.

I'm sure that the only reason you don't see more 5-star reviews for Yoga Vermont is because the…read morestudents are so blissed out from class that they don't have time for writing Yelp reviews. I've taken classes with both Scott and Kathy, who have quite different approaches to but equally deep knowledge of Ashtanga yoga. Kathy is very chatty and very hands-on (with those who wish it), with plenty of compliments and suggestions for pose modifications for each of her students. Scott is a quieter sort, and while he frequently offers verbal amendments, doesn't do much hands-on assistance. Kathy seems more apt to encourage her students to modify a pose based on what they need, whereas Scott seems to encourage students to engage the pose as it was intended. (For example, I tend to brace my arm against my thigh during triangle: Kathy would encourage my use of triangle as a twist, wheres Scott recommended I instead brace my hand on my shin so I could reach higher with my other hand. Both totally correct approaches, it seems to me: just dependent on where you put your emphasis.) Whichever approach you prefer, you'll find excellent teaching at Yoga Vermont!

I can't say enough good things about this studio. Kathy is absolutely fantastic; she is my favorite…read moreof any Ashtanga instructor I've encountered. She's down to earth, fun, kind, and patient, and her knowledge of the practice is just incredible. The other Ashtangis were welcoming, too, and so inspiring :) I began working with intermediate series here last fall and my practice developed so quickly thanks to Kathy, Leo, and Scott. I broke my back in a snowboarding accident only a couple months after I discovered Yoga Vermont and I really missed practicing there --- if you are looking for a studio (albeit, Ashtanga isn't for everyone, but this isn't a review for that!), this is your place.

Visited PlaAXburgh with a group of friends on a Sunday afternoon. First things first, this place is…read moreonly a couple of months old & my map couldn't find it (it's in the Big Lots shopping center, fyi) The pros: The facility was clean, staff was very helpful (and fun), and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We got three types of axes and the owner of Precision Engraving was even kind enough to also let us throw some of his knives. As only one of us had ever thrown an ax before, we needed quite a bit of guidance, and Plaxburgh's team members were very helpful and encouraging. The cons: No food or bev options (other than a couple of vending machines in the back), and the cost is a bit high at $25 per person per hour (the only reason I deducted a star). You will need to sign a disclaimer form, and anyone under 18 will need an adult with them. Plaxburgh is available for corporate team building events and private events!
