How could I resist a yoga studio with such a delightful and clever pun for a name!…read more I discovered Heading Om during my week visiting Peoria, IL for work. I was able to attend two practices with Tammy. The first thing I thought when I pulled up was what a beautiful location they have for their studio! A historic old building surrounded by lush green lawns is the perfect atmosphere for a peaceful practice. Once inside, the scents of candles and essential oils instantly have a calming effect preparing any yogi for a great practice. Tammy was great! I am not very yoga savvy and she was so patient and helpful. Heading Om provides mats and props and each session is only 13 dollars! It's a great price for a great practice. If I ever find myself in Peoria again, I'll be "Heading Om."

I found this studio by searching online and bought a certificate for a relative as a gift and I am…read moreso glad I did. Practicing there has completely entranced me with yoga for the great mental and physical benefits. Not to mention the wonderful staff and the great atmosphere. Classes are small so you get plenty of hands on instruction and all props and mats are provided. All you need to bring is yourself. During my pregnancy, Tammy always gave me variations to make practice more comfortable and safe which really meant a lot to me. Now they have prenatal yoga classes available too! They also offer Thai yoga but I haven't done one of those yet. The teachers are very warm and welcoming and you can tell that they love what they do.

You definitely do NOT want to go here…read more While the machines and equipment are nice the cleanliness of the place is disgusting. Bugs in the men's showers. Broken Drain in the shower that could cut someone's foot. Urine colored water every 3 days in the hot tub. 30-40 signs around the gym telling you what not to do. Tacky as Hell. Front Desk personnel that just sit on their butts. 2 showers that are out of order for at least over a year and still are. A parking lot that has more pot holes then you can count. A smoothie area that isn't bringing in the $ that they hoped for. There are much better gyms in the area. Avoid this place at all costs.

Reserve ahead of time on their website which is under the same name. Speaking of their website,…read moreit's a great tool to research ahead of time which yoga session (they offer 6 different genres) to choose on their home page with a full description of each category. If you are new to this location, make sure you take the time to fill out a registration form so you are all check-ed in. Clean mats, and weights for Iron Yoga, are provided so no big deal if you forget to bring your own. Hot yoga is this place's forté, as a majority of the classes offered include the cranked-up heat. The space is intimate and has a capacity limit of approximately 35-40 people, which leads back to my point of reserving online before dropping by. [Bonus: Cat employees enjoy a discount with a flash of the badge!] I went a few weeks ago for Iron Yoga and as I reflect on my experience, I can say with confidence that it was worthwhile and effective. Mallory delivered clear leadership and provided guidance on posture with excellent direction. The heat added to this session gave an extra oomph that regular weight-training lacked, but be sure to hydrate ahead of time and afterwards. My limbs were very sore the next day, leaving me feeling gratified. I highly recommend Yoga Projekt. Trust.

Pros: -Very friendly front desk staff…read more -Wide variety of machines. Help hit a wide variety of muscles. -Classes, juice bar, and WiFi -Very clean inside. Employees are constantly mopping or cleaning the gym. Bathrooms, equipment cleaners, are always stocked. Cons: -Some trainers stand around and talk to clients on machines for long periods of time. Not just explaining lifts, but random conversations that could be had while moving the equipment or while not taking up a machine. And use multiple machines at once. Taking up a bench, cable station, and dumbbells, all at once with one client. -Some trainers rarely disinfect machines after use. Either personal use or with a client. -Might sound small but there's a decent amount of people that wear jeans in there. Just makes the gym feel cleaner when people are not wearing their street clothes around the gym. -if you don't use/don't have a need for all the services, like the childcare or classes, the membership is pretty pricey. Overall I like the gym, with the Golds name on the building it was the first gym I looked at when I moved to the area. Really enjoyed the Golds at college, even though this is run privately. All gyms have their issues, from people standing around, not re-racking weights, and using multiple machines at once. Can't fix the people but maybe more signs could remind people of the basics.

The only downside is that the parking is a tad difficult with a majority of its spots being reserved. So you have to park at the far end of the lots. Charging stations are available, and clean locker rooms. Different types of pools are available. One with lanes, a free swim pool, another that is heated with rails installed, a jacuzzi, and a steam room. Also one with wavy lanes at the pool playground. There is a rock climbing wall but it's always covered up. I wish they had a sign saying when it'll be open or how to use it.

While soaking in front of a huge glass window in the hot tub, you can actually see the bald eagles nesting in the trees on the other side of the Illinois River! But that's about it. The place is being run by idiots, all on the city payroll -- usually guys wearing tight body shirts who spend most of their time working out on the machines while giving scant attention to the "problems" all around them. The workout machine area overlooking all of this is virtually deserted with no supervision and no customers, particularly in the evening hours after work (one has to wonder why?). This encourages pilfering and chronic theft in the locker areas, among other things. Then a white school bus arrives and unloads various people on a hot summer day, who stand around talking to each other in the Olympic-size pool, thus preventing anyone from swimming laps until after they and their white bus leave two hours later. If one tries to complain, a guy in a tight body shirt comes over to tell you your behavior is not acceptable. Meanwhile, the people off the bus could be drowning from no supervision for all he knows because, up to then, he and his "crew" are busy talking to various types about tomorrow's big game at the events center! It is a big political operation to keep everyone happy during the summer heat and the drop-dead months of cold winter, so they will not throw rocks or steal hubcaps (as well as cars parked nearby) due to the lack of personal safety on the streets around the place --which has been funded by tax monies -- that is from those who pay taxes. Somebody made a lot of money building this place. Then they use it to stick it to the taxpaying citizens to keep some people "happy" who are "needy" and unhappy for whatever reasons. But watch for Mr. Body T. Shirt to run for mayor next time around, since he knows how to make the big shots with the real money happy.
