Right now, the schedule includes four classes (Air, Water, Fire, and Earth) plus community events (like weekly free meditation on Saturdays and a monthly yoga benefit for Underdog Pet Rescue). The dharma talks are inspiring. The props are plentiful, and the sense of community is welcoming and light-hearted. If you're lucky you can visit with, Sukha, the studio dog, before or after your practice.

Amy, the instructor, was welcoming, knowledgeable and informative. She greeted me with a hug and smile and asked questions about how she could support me during class. And she did just that! I was successful, even though I am a heavier woman, and I left feeling like I had done something beneficial for my mind, spirit and body. Don't pass up the opportunity to take a class here. It's only 10$ for your first class and I promise that you'll have a positive experience. Thank you Amy for being such an informative instructor and positive person!

On 12/2, I texted to confirm an hour before and she said that time didn't work. We rescheduled to 12/6 and I texted her when I arrived. She responded that she had already gone home for the day. Unfortunately I have been experiencing significant neck pain and was really looking forward to getting some relief. I also rearranged my schedule to make these appointments work and both were cancelled with little or no notice. She is in the process of refunding my remaining sessions, but the experience has been a waste of time and energy. Wanted to post in case you are looking to give this place as a gift.
