I was sick of the gym, I hated running and I hadn't seen my abs for a decade. I'd had enough. My…read morefriend suggested yoga to increase flexibility enough to not get hurt playing ice hockey. I feel so lucky to have found Paula at Shanti. She started me with a fitness class which focuses on toning and strengthening my core, as well as a Beginner's Yoga class to work on strength, balance and flexibility. She has a fantastic demeanor and vast knowledge to teach, guiding me through the process while motivating me to realize my capabilities. I've subsequently found that I still have both abs and obliques, dropping 15lbs and a belt size. But the unique thing is that I enjoy it. No excuses, no dreading it, and no boredom. Paula clearly puts a tremendous amount of time into preparing for each class. Going into my fifth month, each class is still different. I'm seeing results, feeling results and I'm not bored. After experiencing other instructors, my more experienced classmates would consistently recommended Paula highly...and now I do too...

Paula is supportive and relaxed... all the while encouraging you to push yourself to the next level of a stronger, more balanced and confident YOU! If you are interested in giving yourself (or someone you love) the best gift ever, then this is it. I received my first 'class card' as a gift from my husband and have been taking classes for over 2 years now and can not believe the positive changes I have experienced in both body and mind! Classes are energizing, fun and very, very reasonably priced (check around you will quickly see the value)! Paula is phenomenal and you will never know how cool it feels to do you first "inversion"... until you try! Shanti Yoga and Fitness... DO IT FOR YOU!

I've been practicing yoga and Pilates for several years, but in recent months I've been seeking a…read morenew exercise class to add to my existing routine. After some research I came to discover Mind Body Barre. I took a Mind Body Barre method class with Caitlin at the Rehoboth location and it was honestly one of the better exercise classes I've taken in recent years. The class runs about an hour and includes elements of ballet, Pilates, and yoga. The class runs at a moderate speed and is accompanied by modern pop music for the entire hour so it really keeps your energy up. The facility is spacious, clean, and well lit. the studio provides all of the equipment you will use in class but I would highly recommend bringing water and a towel. Parking is decent but I would arrive early to get a spot near the entrance. Overall I had a wonderful experience and I'm looking forward to visiting the studio again!

Population: Women Work out Style: Barre, Yoga & Pilates Bonus feature: Lavender cool down (5 minutes in Shivasana with the instructor adjusting you in a lavender scented room thanks to the aromatherapy spray they sell) My history: I am not an athletic type, nor in shape and only practiced yoga occasionally. I started and stopped many gym memberships over the years until I found this place. I am happy to report that after my first class here a year ago I have become dedicated to this studio working out 2 or 3 times a week. The workouts don't get any easier but because of all the support I receive here it doesn't matter. I can see the results ( I have actually definition in my arms now!) and am really truly happy.

We came on Election Day for their free community yin class, which was a great opportunity to check…read moreout the studio and meet one of the teachers. I appreciate that they offered this class on election night for free and that they did not insist on a complicated registration process, just advertising on their Insta and encouraging folks to show up. The turnout was perhaps more than anticipated, and while the teacher was able to strategically make space for everyone who wanted to attend, things were a bit cramped, which made it a little less relaxing than I expected, but the teacher was great and it was still helpful to do the postures. The studio has beautiful hardwood floors, plants and is nicely decorated. It's in a part of the building that is used for the winter farmers market, so if you are used to coming to the market, this should be easy to find. I will definitely keep this studio on my yoga radar and check their class schedule for other community offerings and special pop ups. I don't think I am likely to visit regularly though because the parking situation is rough with limited street parking.

A couple of months ago, I approached Tami with curiosity about the Lomi Lomi practice. We share a genuine interest in getting more people to try yoga, body work & energy work.

Tami is authentic and passionate in her practice; she does a wonderful job letting you know what to expect and making sure you feel safe & seen.

I've been consistently going here for a few weeks now (because they have an amazing introductory offer) and have thoroughly enjoyed the classes. I've only taken the hot power yoga classes, but have taken it with several different instructors and liked all of them. Each instructor is unique in their approach and the poses they have us go through, but for the most part they are pretty similar and have all been great. They always stick around at the end if you have any questions. I also took a private yoga session here with Caitlyn where I was able to meet with her one on one. I am still very new to yoga and wanted to know if I had the correct form for some of the poses and Caitlyn was really great in helping me through that. They offer other yoga courses too like restorative yoga and hip & back yoga, but I haven't gotten a chance to try those yet. I've had a couple of questions since joining and have reached out to the studio via email and they are always quick to respond! I honestly cannot say enough good things about this place and all the people who work here. Yoga has been my new outlet and this studio has been really good to me. Highly recommended for anyone interested in yoga whether you are a beginner or not !

Every journey implies experience. Some repeat that which is comfortably familiar, others meander…read moreinto pioneering uncharted. It is a rarity to find that which combines these two concepts into one -- yet this is how I could describe quiet & unassuming Create Power Yoga studio in Rumford, Rhode Island. It is a place melding (self) discovery of (one's) unknown within (her/his/their) known. CPY proves it is no mere stop along a personal journey, but the landmark for self embodiment, a safe-haven to reacquaint one's self stronger. It is open to all bodies, all abilities, all creeds and keeps current on all mandated healthy-space needs. The owner has integrity and acts in accordance with a purposeful mission: to help each client find her/his/their way while teaching the how-to-get-there in an inviting, warming and clean facility that creates space & time to do this and more. I'm not of a dancing background, and my muscles are as inflexible as political discourse these days-- but under the tutelage of Petra, I'm happier, calmer and more connecting with authentic me. Now as I continue my journey onward, I know where I am 'at center', more conscious to my needs, and even under stress know I can breathe. Grateful for this place & this grace at my pace. Thank you, Petra and all at CPY, & Namaste.

This is probably one of the better looking yoga studios that I've been to. It's a super cute studio. I love the decor and ambiance here. It has a nice cozy feel to it.
