This is one…read moreof the first yoga classes I have been to in a long time that was both rejuvenating mentally and challenging physically. I took an intermediate class and felt appropriately challenged and went through many new poses which I enjoyed. My instructor was awesome, she gave us different modifications for difficult poses and allowed us time to practice balance postures on our own. Edge Yoga is a small no frills studio with great classes which was exactly what I was looking for in a yoga studio.

Come to Edge. I took a yoga course in college and loved it, but something like ten years passed…read morebefore I picked up my practice again, and that started with a walk-in at Edge Yoga. Last summer I moved to NYC. Before that time I spent almost six years in Arlington studying with Mark and his team for 500-1000 total hours. He is a very experienced teacher, and the most studied and wise yoga expert I have met so far on the East Coast, bar none. Be advised that Mark does not teach pranayama (breath work) or meditation in his classroom, but this isn't because he would dismiss their benefits. When you practice with Mark, you're there to work, to build endurance, and become (I can't think of a better way to say it) incredibly super strong. In addition to having some years of active vinyasa practice under your belt, I recommend that you start to build a pranayama and meditation practice before coming to his classes, so that when you do come to explore the physical practice, you can do so with more focus, and someday get into postures you might only be able to dream of today. Mark is an all-around fitness guru; he gives great assists and adjustments in yoga, and is a savant when it comes to observing the body and training its movement. His cues are verbally advanced, but over time you'll realize that they contain all of the practically useful knowledge you need to cultivate a really badass practice. Rebecca is funny, brilliant and absolutely amazing with beginners. You'll love her style and her presence. I know I did. Nikki's classes were always my favorites. She does teach pranayama, and so beautifully. And every single week she brings a new sequence. Just an incredibly bright, creative and supportive teacher, and an expert on transitions and inversions. All of the staff bring something great to Edge. I totally recommend it to travelers in NoVa who have an active practice and are looking for great weekend morning offerings. To any locals who haven't tried it, get there!

In an effort to check out some of the gyms in the NOVA area, I enrolled in a free trial of Class…read morePass and started taking some of the classes at studios I was always curious about. Over the holidays I tried a hot pilates class with friends, so I wanted to find one in the NOVA area to give a try. After doing some scrolling I found Sukha offered a hot mat pilates class and eagerly signed up. The day of the class there was a huge storm and it was raining hard but luckily class was not cancelled! I arrived about 10 minutes early and only the instructor and maybe the owner (or front desk staff was there). They didn't say much, but welcomed me and told me I could go put my stuff in the lockers around the corner. Ok - easy enough. A few minutes later when I came back to the lobby there was still no "students" there but they told me I could go in the room and get set up. Ok - easy enough. The studio was BEAUTIFUL and with a huge window overlooking the street it was very calming on a rainy day. Eventually the instructor came in and said we'd start soon. Ok - easy enough. However she mentioned the heat wasn't really working, so although it would be warm it wouldn't be a try hot Pilates environment. Ok - sad. At the start of class there were only 3 of us and a few people virtually attending. I'm not sure if it was because of the rain or other factors, but the class was way smaller than expected. Anyways, it allowed the instructor to give us a very personalized experience and made for a good first class with lots of opportunity for clear instruction. I will say this class was NOT for beginners. Having gone to a few more classes at other studios since then, a lot of the movements I was unable to do just because they were kind of advanced. Not a huge deal just worth noting. Overall I did have a good class but was a little disappointed on the temperature. I also would have appreciated more engagement from the instructor before or after class, since I am so new to Pilates, but meh. I got the workout I came for. I haven't visited Sukha again, just because it wasn't quite what I was looking for regarding class size and content. However as I continue to learn I certainly would visit again in the future because it was a gorgeous studio space! However it's hard to speak to the community or the staff because the day I came it was very low attendance, rainy, and semi-quiet.

I was SO hoping this would finally be a place that wouldn't be WARM or HOT yoga, I've been looking…read morefor just regular vinyasa or similar classes without heat. (Will totally take suggestions on where to find them!) First class: I was the only one in person in the whole studio, three people joined online. I had let the instructor know I was so happy I found a place finally that isn't heated and she welcomed me in. The studio itself is really nice, I was hoping this would be my new place. The class was set at 85, the room got to 82 degrees throughout the class. What was even more confusing is that I was just basically watching her talk to her laptop. I could have used adjustment (and even appreciate that if I'm not doing something right!) but she didn't break eye contact from the screen, and waited to end the online session when her laptop was closed to acknowledge me again. At the end I tried my best to understand and ask what happened with the heat, and she said it must have been a mistake in the settings, and asked me to please come back to her Thursday Vinyasa and assured me it wouldn't be warm and it was a mistake. Upon arrival Thursday, she was checking in someone in front of me and said "I hope you don't mind heat today!" And I asked about it and they said they changed their mind and I could do another slow-movement class that evening instead. I was already there and ready, so I left and didn't go back. As someone who can't tolerate the heat, I always look for that in the descriptions and don't practice where rooms are hot from previous sessions. I paid $40 for the intro special and wasn't able to have a good class, and something else really weird happened.... One day I had to reschedule, so I was trying to cancel (there's no number to the studio) and sent in an online form. I received an email that had a phone number, so when I called it the person (see photo) Ahmed answered and tried to get me to come to another studio, since he didn't work there any more. I reported that upon my first arrival and no one seemed to care. Such a bummer, major disconnect on what they say and what they do. Just odd interactions the whole time.

I've done similar style classes (Sculpt, sculpt & flow, etc.) at a number of different studios/companies and how Stephanie did it at this location really got me going in the best way! I've since taken class with multiple folks and they've all been great! Rundown: Class format: sculpt & flow Instructors: Stephanie, Meera, Kristen, Abby Rating: 5/5 for all instructors Facility: 4.9/5 - The only thing this location is missing is the very awesome tea bar that's located at the South Alexandria location. They have one here but I like the tea options better at the other. 12 minutes of yoga. 36 of strength training. 12 of yoga cool down? Whew. In a heated room? Incredible. Music has been great across classes. Stephanie was encouraging and her stories made class go faster. I loved how good of a workout this was. Stephanie was a great instructor. Meera might be my faveeeeee. Her playlist was popping, and she was really making the girls work with her workout. The sculpt portion targeted pretty much everything. I'm trying to focus on, so very appreciated. Kristen was also amazing. While hers felt a little more cardio than anything else, I could definitely feel some significant sculpting happening, and she's got great energy. Super encouraging and definitely challenging. Location is clean. They validate parking and everyone was nice. Even though there are no showers, I LOVED that the bathroom has just about everything you need for a quick refresh, including face wash. Looking forward to coming back. Also, out of the three locations I've been to across Alexandria and Arlington, I would say that this one definitely is my favorite.

This studio also provides towels (including cold towels) and has a fill bottle station for water. I've only ever taken the yoga sculpt classes at this location, and this is the perfect workout to add to my weekly rotation. The class is also great for beginners; I've always been more of a Pilates girl, but I've found that YogaSix more than suits my needs in terms of strengthening and toning. While the class tends to be mostly attended by women, I've seen plenty of men sign up as well. Classes are almost always full, so early signup and arrival is recommended. I wish that they had showers so that I could do these workouts in the morning before work, but that is more of a personal preference and not a critique of the studio by any means. I cannot recommend this place enough, as it's great for people at any stage in their fitness journey

And I walked out of that class upright for the first time in over a week. And then I kept going back. I have seen all shapes and sizes and skill levels in this studio-which is why I love it so much. The teachers are kind and patient and completely non-judgmental. This studio does not feel like a gym or exercise facility--it feels warm and cozy and safe. Yoga studios are all over the NoVa area so I'll speak directly to the folks reading this who don't have the confidence to drop in just anywhere: If you've always thought about trying yoga and been too scared, this is the place to go. You won't regret it.

Good morning! I went to the Lululemon in the pentagon…read morefashion center yesterday to get a coat that my grandson ordered online from their website. He ordered the coat while we were in transit to the store. So as to make this a quick trip. The coat was $315. The site offered Applepay. So that's what we chose as our source of payment. The payment went through just fine. However, when we arrived at the store the payment looked a little suspect. Because the money was gone, but it didn't show as a purchase. We immediately spoke with a manager. Her name was Ganada. (maybe) Anyway she wrote down our information and said she would check on it and be right back. And she disappeared for about ten minutes. Upon her return, she said that she had spoken with the back office and they told her that they could clearly see the purchase and the $315. However something went wrong, and they could not identify it. So we could not have the coat, nor the refunded amount of $315. She said they would sent my money back in 3 to 10 business days. Now, I ask myself why. I also asked the manager why. She didn't have an answer. She did however, offer me 25% off of the coat if I purchase in the store now. What kind of crackhead do they think I am. Why on earth would I give you more money??? In the end, my grandson has no coat and the money for the coat is somewhere in limbo. How is this remotely fair.
