I'm stronger and more aware of my body in space. Exercises are challenging with stretches built in.

I would suggest Core to anyone wanting to try something new or deepen their relationship to their body.

Core is a small, very welcoming studio and can accomodate levels of practice from beginners to more advanced practice. I have been helped immeasurably to recover from more than one surgery.

The instructors she had were really encouraging, which made a big difference for my soft-spoken kiddo. I noticed that on days she went to class, she slept better and her overall mood improved. Since a lot of sports and physical activities for kids tend to be competitive, which isn't really her thing, Fly Freak has been a great alternative. If you're looking for a way for your child to move around that also helps with regulation, I definitely recommend giving Fly Freak a try!

Love this studio!

There is a strong sense of community community at Fly Freak - students and staff both are so accepting and encouraging. I love how everybody cheers when someone does a trick for the first time! I love chair dance (shout out to Kit!), aerial yoga (all the teachers for this are phenomenal) and Sling (my go to teachers are Clara, Christy and Hayley, but I've never had a instructor I didn't like!). I also love the workshops and special events - self defense classes, guardian and kiddo classes, sound baths and my personal favorite, photo shoots! If you're looking for a new obsession or even just want to try something different, you won't regret going to Fly Freak. ​

Their barre Pilate classes are such a great way to work out. I also tried a fascia-focused Pilates class where the instructor used sensory massage balls to work the feet and upper back/shoulder trigger points It felt amazing! One of the best class at the center. The gym is clean and equipped with many mats and equipments for their customers. During their Pilates Day event, they had a pelvic physical therapist from Sakura Pelvic Health onsite, which was incredibly helpful for addressing a few questions and concerns I had. It is definitely worth investing time into yourself -- body, mind, and soul at this Pilates center. Plenty of parking in the lot too and don't forget to stop by the coffee shop downstairs. Grab a beer across the street on your way out!

No reviews yet? Crazy!…read more I am a big fan of Green Lotus Yoga! I moved from Seattle in July and had a yoga center that I absolutely adored. I tried a few different centers here in the Twin Cities and none of them were what I was looking for. Too corporate, too focused on the calorie burning part of yoga, too routine, or just too damn hot! And then Green Lotus opened up. Its yoga as it should be, holistically focused, welcoming to all bodies and abilities, and the classes are variable. I haven't tried any of their healing services yet, but am very excited to! They have many different class packages and one that includes a massage or other service each month. Overall; great for yoga and I love that there are many other services to try. I will definitely be a long time patron!

Even on their social media? They were really eager to get rid of me off of their website as well. No notice, no notice that even my schedule access would be revoked, there was promise of me returning once I feel better from this medical condition that I had where I couldn't even finish a 60 minute massage, and then come to find out that is no longer viable because they filled up my room and no longer have any need for any of my services anymore. Directly contradicting what was originally textually agreed to. This is severely disappointing. I see the reply from merry Beth to my comment and want to point out there was not an adequate amount of time for me being away. They did not give me 90 days per my contract and decided to fill my room and choose someone else while I was recovering without letting me know they were going to go ahead and do this. If I was unable to fulfill my contract they could have talked to me to see what we can do. And they chose to not do that and not offer me another contract. Thank you for taking the time to read. Again, severely disappointed.

This lifetime doesn't have a pool or sport courts so if you're looking for those I would recommend a different lifetime (such as Lakeville).

However, when I looked at the schedule there are limited options. Unfortunately, only evenings (after 4pm) work for me and this location only has 3 options and those are basically full. If you work from home or not at all you will have lots of options. So sad. My mission is to try new things and go places i decided to try pilates reformer. I didn't know what to expect but I was excited because this was going to be different than floor pilates. I went to the 30min intro class to just try it out. We got some introduction and hopped on. The resistance was super easy, but what I didn't know is I would feel it later, lol. Dana was so great and because of her I'm considering the 8 pack/month pass. The manager was welcoming and they don't pressure you at the end of class to sign up. The class speaks for itself. If you've ever wanted to try reformer go to this location when Dana is teaching for the free (can't beat free) intro class. Even though it was only 30mins I still felt it the next day, in a good way.
