I cannot say enough fabulous things about Be Yoga, both the Dilworth and Carmel locations. As a…read morenovice, I often feel intimidated at yoga studios. Sometimes, even when the classes are marked 'Beginner,' attendees seem to instantly be capable of mind-boggling contortions, with zero guidance from the instructor. Meanwhile, I find myself gasping in the back, unable to touch my kneecaps, and topple over at the slightest breeze in the room. Not so at Be Yoga! I have taken a smattering of classes, and find the instructors to be kind, patient, helpful, and True Artists of their discipline. I am especially appreciative of the 'Deep Stretch' class, as the fundamentals of successful yoga practice begin with flexibility & balance, and this class helps get you where you need to be! Both Dilworth & Carmel studios have a delightful, artsy 'boutique' vibe, the instructors and management staff make you feel like family. I'll never practice yoga anywhere else-- Be Yoga is the Best!!

I have visited this studio a few times and so far I really like it. I must admit that I am not the…read morebiggest fan of yoga. However, since going to this studio I have increased my yoga participation from annually to a few times per year! Next goal is monthly... The studio is small and cozy although it can seek crowed at times (but briefly) during class change and post class when trying to gather my belongings. The lobby contains a few seating areas and merchandise for sale. There is also an area to store belongings during class (no lock up area so avoid bringing valuables). The class size in all the sessions that I have attended is comfortable, not too crowded. All of the instructors have been pleasant and helpful. The best thing I like about this studio is that the various class options tailor to various yoga levels. So far my favorite class has been DEEP STRETCH because it's easier to keep up with the slower pace for the novice or slacker yogis like myself. I also enjoy SLOW FLOW, which has a steady pace of ongoing movement. Class availability and descripts can be easily found and registered for online,which is a big convenience. There is a parking lot, but it is shared amongst other establishments within the plaza. I would recommend this studio and definitely plan to go again, hopefully someday meeting my ultimate goal of attending yoga weekly!

When I first moved to Charlotte, I made it my goal to try as many yoga studios in the area as I…read morecould. I can confidently say Y2 is TOP TIER - instructor, classes, studio, and location wise. The facility feels very clean and is stocked with everything you could need. I found the instructors specifically to be very approachable and eager to chat after class. I loved the intro special and found it to be a good deal compared to some others I have seen. One thing I LOVE about Y2s classes is how challenging they are. I think it's important or yoga teachers to toe the line between making a class challenging but also accessible to everyone in the room. I think Y2 does this perfectly. The feeling of leaving a Y2 class is a feeling of accomplishment and achievement. For me, the music is very motivating! And I noticed the more instructors I tried, I found some that had similar music tastes to me (these were my favorite classes :) ) LAST THING! Location is top tier for me. I love that shopping center and it's just one (of the many) reasons why I love this studio.

Since we arrived a smidge early due to our built-in traffic cushion and smooth traffic for both of us, we asked about moving to the class that started 15 minutes before the one we booked. The sweet gal at the desk checked the class enrollment and said we could move - so YAY. It was a pretty studio and the instructor was so soothing. Making us aware of hands-on corrections and telling us how to signal if we weren't into it. The music was chill. My friend and I had the best 75 minute flow and were even guided to a brunch spot within walking distance! The parking situation is explained well online and I'm glad we had a moment to figure it out - at 9am it really wasn't an issue but I could see how it may get a bit busy/crowded and people could get flustered. I would definitely go back to Okra since my friend and I tend to plan ahead for indoor workouts in the winter to avoid weather issues. Easy to book, easy to find, loved our class. Four thumbs up from me and the bestie. (Total thumbs - not four each!)

I would have happily recommended this studio to family and friends for the diversity in class offerings, however NoDa Yoga failed on their mission "to create a warm, welcoming, space for all folx".

The class itself was an indoor-outdoor experience, they opened up the garage doors and the sounds of nature filled the space.

The consistency of the flow is helpful - I've been doing yoga for a long time, but I will give this studio credit for me finally being able to do wheel! I enjoy that I can benchmark my progress here and always look forward to returning to this space.

My work decided to have a yoga instructor come in twice a week and offer a group rate type payment…read moreplan. I wavered on this for a few days but finally realized that it's simply never going to be any cheaper or any more convenient; that this is as good an opportunity as I'm going to get, so why not? Please keep in mind that I'm 260 pounds and do not exercise beyond walking my dogs and swimming. So today was day one of my yoga experience. Lindsey arrived on time to our office and brought everything we'd need to get going: mats, blocks, straps, music, payment punch cards and an awesome, fun attitude :-) And did I mention that she's 6 months pregnant?? (I'll admit that I felt much more confident in doing yoga with my own big belly when I saw hers!) We begin with some explanations of terms and of how Lindsey likes to teach. Next thing I know we're on the floor stretching and doing it. We are doing yoga in the middle of the day at my work... ok- pretty cool :-) As we change poses and laugh at how unbalanced we all are, I discover that I'm having some dizziness issues so I mention it out loud during class hoping it won't spell the end of my yoga opportunities. Lindsey said that was no problem, that there were various poses that would work the same body parts that would not make me as dizzy. I was SO glad I said something instead of just quitting :-) The tone of her response kept me feeling optimistic. (Thanks Lindsey!) Lindsey is so kind and gentle and patient, I felt immediately at ease with her despite the sweat dripping off my nose! I am so thankful for this opportunity to work with Lindsey. I do feel more energized today after our first session and I'm excited to go back :-) If you're nervous or intimidated to try yoga, I highly recommend reaching out to Lindsey, she can devise a plan that will make it workable for you all while addressing any issues or fears you may have.

Stephanie, the instructor, went at a medium pace and her teaching style kept the semi experienced yogi (like me) engaged and on track. Unfortunately - and maybe it's a fluke - this particular class fell into the bro-ga category. I've been assured this is not typically the case, but golly; will some diversity please show up next time? Afterward we had margaritas and I went to a brewery near Amelie's to wind down. All in all, having yoga and beer is a full on win concept. Please come try it out - provided you're willing to get bendy and relax with a drink afterward. ;)

I started going to Arrichion in April of 2024 as a guest of a friend from work. She had mentioned…read moreloving her yoga studio and I was interested in joining a class based gym rather than continuing my YMCA membership. I would say I was a true beginner at yoga when I joined with very limited knowledge of yogi terminology and definitely not familiar with heated yoga. I started with Topaz class which I would consider a foundational class. Once I became confident/comfortable with the heat and teaching style from Topaz, I began to branch out to the other yoga classes like Diamond, Krystallos, Black Opal, and Bloodstone. Diamond is one of my favorites - it's super dark in the yoga room with candlelight and the flow is very slow. Black Opal is a fun class if you want to try fun poses like wheel or headstand/crow. Bloodstone and Krystallos are true workouts - hydrate before!!! I attended Arrichion for a whole year without trying the circuit training side of the gym but finally gave it a shot during the Athena challenge in May of 2025. My favorite circuit class is Warrior and is different every class. If you're nervous to try the circuit side, bring a friend and come a few minutes early and take some time to look at the TVs above the line of treadmills! There are video clips of what you'll be doing so nothing will be a "surprise" once class gets started. The teachers are very approachable during class and I feel able to ask questions easily no matter who is guiding that day. Around the same time I started trying the circuit side, I began booking private sessions with Jenna who is one of the owners of the studio. I attend with the friend who originally recommended Arrichion to me and our private sessions have helped us both become more confident yogis. Jenna makes unique flows tailored to what we want to work on and even takes our music recommendations to add in. I learned how to hold a headstand within 2 private sessions which was shocking considering I was a complete newbie only a year prior. The recovery options available just make the gym that much more loveable. I use the sauna at least once a week and occasionally brave the cold-plunge (worth it, just scary to get into it at first). The red light meditation room will 100% make you want to take a nap and is nice to do pre-class. This membership is 100% worth it, not only for my health but for the community and fun being a member brings. I am an unlimited monthly member and pay for the membership with my HSA account through benefits at work which the studio helped me figure out how to set up. Highly recommend this studio to anyone who will listen! :-) Do it for the pops!!!

The instructors are great, the workout is hard, but what makes it so hard to love this place is the owner. Instead of caring about his members and their enjoyment of the gym, all he focuses his time on is scamming his high-paying members on late charges. So if I add myself to a waitlist, and someone drops out at midnight, and now I've made other plans - thinking I can't get in this class - he CHARGES YOU! Get this, you're next in line... you actually go and fill the spot, HE STILL CHARGES ME! #MoneyGrab The owner's waitlist policy is disgusting, it's cheap and it's disgraceful. I've contacted my credit card company and the BBB as this is the 3rd time I've attempted to reason with him on this fraud. He couldn't care less and enjoying milking his members for all their worth. $22 is charged to you if you're on a waitlist and even say NO I can no longer attempt! Honestly, it's pitiful how he's grasping for $22 straws. See pics for examples.
