TJ is one of the most knowledgeable instructors I've ever met. I've been to various studios throughout the United States, but I was never consistent enough with studio training. Now that I am vaccinated I want to be more consistent with my training and get a strong technical foundation. I can tell from just one class with TJ, the difference in my understanding of pole and just how much better my body awareness was. Freestyle Fitness is the real deal and you really can't beat the professionalism, knowledge, and overall friendly atmosphere.

A quick disclaimer - my review is more an overview as I was there for an event not a paid class. Last weekend, I had the opportunity to attend an event with the Louisville independent Business Association (LIBA) at Turners. LIBA had several of the instructors available to show folks how to do beginner moves on the equipment which included silks, trapeze bars, and hanging hoops. I'm getting over a cold, so didn't try it out for myself, but everyone who did had a great time! The instructors were so helpful (and flexible) with participants ranging in age from grade school to senior citizens. They demonstrated how to use the apparatus and then talked people through the basics. During a talk later in the evening, one volunteer said that the club has been producing a circus for over 60 years and that people of all ages participate. She had taken up aerial training in her 30s after having two kids! The friend that went with me was interested in a private session so we checked out their brochure. They offer memberships, classes, birthday parties, and private sessions all at very low cost (way below most gym or club memberships). We had such a great time watching other people try it out, I think we'll be organizing a ladies' night soon so we can see if we're up for the challenge!

The teachers are poorly trained, unorganized, and usually unhelpful. Foundations is their best foot forward, and it only goes down hill from there. As others have said, good luck learning unless you're self taught and in shape already. Otherwise, disappointment and potential injury are just around the corner. Hard pass

I recently went to Wild Orchid with my graduate cohort and took a beginner pole class. I was…read morehonestly pleasantly surprised by both the space and the class itself. Wild Orchid has a somewhat hidden location, and doesn't look like it should be there. It's in almost a garage and has plenty of parking. From the outside, it is pretty inconspicuous, but on the inside, Wild Orchid has a very vibrant and clean atmosphere. Taking proper precautions for COVID, stations for each student were spread 6 feet apart and there were sanitizing stations and sanitizing procedures taken before and after our class. The class itself was fabulous. Anita instructed our class of mostly novices and did an excellent job of both being engaging and breaking down the basics. I definitely struggled with some of the techniques she presented, and she ensured that I felt confident in myself and corrected what I was doing. I highly recommend looking into taking classes at Wild Orchid, whether it be as a group or as an individual. It really pushed me out of my comfort zone and I am looking forward to returning soon!

Brandi is a warm, caring person, and her personality comes through her yoga instruction. I've had…read morean on-and-off yoga practice ranging from beginning to "intermediate" (in quotes because in yoga we never really stop learning-- who's to say what intermediate even is?). I've attended most of Brandi's classes. Even as someone who "knows their stuff" about yoga, I found that many of her classes provided the space needed to continue refining and honing important parts of yoga-- stances, alignment, balance, control, etc. She has a very gentle style rooted in strength (again, reflective of her personality)-- very hatha. I would recommend any of her classes if you are new to yoga, looking to improve mobility and strength, or looking for a general, gentle space to do your daily practice. VERY good for anyone who wants a gentle yoga practice. I would also add that the studio space is BEAUTIFUL and very comfortable; she also has some goods she sells out front.

Classes are dictated by a narrow curriculum; only a small number of aerial hoop moves are demonstrated and attendees are expected to come in outside of class hours to practice solo and at an added cost. I took two on-site classes, but I sadly learned very little. What I would recommend doing: buy your own hoop and check out YouTube. You'll get considerably more out of any time invested. The yogalates classes here are rarely full and they're not something I would take again. The instructor, Tina, can be unpleasant also. The women who go to this gym are typically heavyset. It's extremely uncomfortable if you weigh less than 115 lbs.

My Yoga experience goes back more than 20 years and is the one exercise I keep up with regularly (even having taught a very gentle Vinyasa class for years). The one thing I had never done was HOT Yoga, because I do not like heat. Call me a Polar Bear if you like. My daughter signed us up because she loves the Hot Yoga class (a solid 95 degrees). I was a little nervous because it is a one hour 15 minute Hot Yoga Power Class. Cory, the instructor was great, very clear in her instruction and even though the class was tough, everyone is given room to take it at their own pace. Because I wasn't used to the heat I did a couple of extra child poses and down dogs. The class was fantastic, I especially loved the ice-cold lavender face towels at the end. We are going back on Friday!
