I have been wanting to try yoga for sometime now, so after seeing a sign for YogaDale on the…read morefreeway the name just stuck & i looked them up. First impression: 10:30am class for beginners with Nancy was so calming & relaxing. It just so happens that they were having a few free classes this weekend so i really lucked out. This particular class had alittle over 10 people in it & the fact that it was my first time i enjoyed how welcoming everyone was, Nancy included. Everything was very clean & organized. Some advice: although drops ins are welcome($15) i can see why registering online would be the better option. Your info is already in their system when you arrive & you're off to pick your spot. Also, parking is limited to what you can find on the main road so try to arrive early if you take one of the afternoon classes i can see someone driving around or walking alittle to get to the studio. They have some mats that you can buy, there were also some mats on the shelves that im assuming you can use for a fee if you dont have one, I'm not sure about the specifics on this one because I took my own, but if you don't have one call ahead and ask. Conclusion: I really enjoyed myself & how patient Nancy was, i will be back.

Ive had a family membership here for almost 10yrs. My wife has been way more consistent thanks to…read morethe childcare program that they have. It's available daily for up to two hours per child. Theres one downstairs for younger children and one upstairs for older kids. They also have parents night out events that let you drop your kids off for pizza and movies. They have lots of options to choose between for all types of fitness levels and interests. They have a great weight room area and equally great machine area, they have yoga rooms, stationary bike room, a rock climbing wall and much more. The recreational pool is heated, lap pool isn't and the kiddie pool isn't either but it's a great cold plunge in the winter. I usually hit that then the sauna before my workouts. They have a basketball court inside and pickle ball courts outside in the back which always has action on them. Theres so much more they offer but I still have not had the chance to try it all out. Their juice/ snack bar is amazing. The soups and wraps are fire!! I highly recommend this place, especially if you have kids. The staff is great and the place is clean. Can't think of anything negative about this place to be honest.

This gym is really big. It seems to offer everything you need, from weights and classes to a pool…read more It was really busy when I visited, but we were still able to get (basically) everything we needed. I was definitely able to complete my workout, I just had to compromise a bit on some of the weights because a lot were being used. I wouldn't say it's run down, but it doesn't feel like a new, fresh gym. It feels really bright inside and gives kind of a hospital cafeteria vibe in the locker rooms. I know that doesn't really make sense, but it's what I thought about when I was in there. , so I guess it makes sense to me. The staff was helpful and friendly, everything seemed to be in good, working order, and it was overall a fine gym. Definitely nicer than the 24 hour fitness in my hometown, but nowhere near as nice as, say... Equinox. It's a "get her done" type of gym, and, I don't know about you, but I am always excited to be DONE with a workout. I did think it was funny that they were selling GIANT cookies in the cafe in the club. Seems counterintuitive to being fit and healthy, but whatever. Don't get me wrong, I definitely LOVE a good, giant cookie, I just think they should have healthier options. And maybe they do, but I was blinded by the giant cookie and kept walking right. on. by.

I hate working out. I mean, I really hate working out. I hate being out-of-breath and would never…read moreadd "sweating through my clothes" to my list of ... well, I'd add it to my list of things that are uncomfortable, and bordering on embarrassing. I also don't really like team things. And I don't have much good to say about over-enthusiastic people and their over-the-top motivational slogans, trying to fool everyone into "getting excited" about something crappy. Like working out. That being said, I love Kaia F.I.T. Love it. I was super unsure at first, but after even just the orientation, I knew it was going to be awesome. And horrible, because I really do still hate working out, and you do a lot of that, there. But I knew it was different than any other place I'd been to, so I was hopeful. I was worried about being the oldest girl in there (41). I was worried about being the person in the worst shape. About being the only one not able to complete the exercises. I was worried about passing out or throwing up or peeing my pants (six kids). But it turns out, it doesn't matter if I'm the oldest, or if I'm in the worst shape of the bunch. It doesn't matter if I am the Rock Star of Kaia, or a sweaty, vomit-covered pile of flesh laying in her own urine (too far?) - the girls there are awesome. And the part about not liking being a part of a team? I take that back. Just this one time. The other girls are so encouraging. And never make me feel like an idiot. Everyone cheers each other on, and that really does get you through that last little bit, when you think you can't hold that plank for even one more second. At orientation, Megan (I'll get to her in a bit!) said, "Don't worry if you're sweating or if your shirt rides up and your belly is hanging out. Nobody here is even going to notice, because we're all just focused on doing our best." Or something like that. I don't know, but the part about not worrying if your belly hangs out? That part I remembered, because let's be real: It's a legitimate concern. But to know that you can show up with no make-up, with wild hair and in a dumb t-shirt AND you don't have to worry about your shirt riding up during Standing Mountain Climbers? Prime. The workout is amazing, as well. I've lost 16 pounds (down to 140) and can DO things. I can do things I couldn't do when I started. I am getting stronger and more agile. I have energy. I feel really proud of myself, and I don't say that often. Or, really, ever. Each day is different. It's broken down into small chunks, so it always seems manageable. It's brutal, I'm not going to lie. I've never sweat this much in my life. Every session leaves me spent, but feeling - and I'm really going to say this - revitalized. This isn't a "Show up sometimes and eventually, maybe you'll see a little results" routine. This is a, "Commit to showing up, workout until you think you may actually die (maybe that's just me) and get amazing results" routine. Oh, and girls only. I love that. Fridays are Yoga, Wednesday is a running class (never gone, too scared), Saturday is a walk/run that you can bring friends and family along to. The other days are a boot camp style workout that will kick your (getting-to-be nicely toned) butt. Megan Powers is the owner and coach and everyone loves her. You can't not love her. Remember my earlier reference about the awful over-the-top, over enthusiastic, let's make everyone feel uncomfortable with my sugar-coated, sing-song voice? That's not Megan. Megan is funny and easygoing. Easygoing, but super motivating. She knows how to get the best from everyone, without making anyone feel like a loser. She puts everyone at ease right away. Megan has encouraged me to re-examine what I believed to be my limitations. It takes a pretty unique person and place for me to be comfortable enough to even attempt something that could very easily end up being incredibly humiliating. But I felt comfortable enough to try hard things and it turns out I could do them, after all. She's really knowledgeable about fitness and nutrition. My husband is a fitness and nutrition superstar, and she tells me the same things he tells me, so I trust her. Plus, you can't argue with results. I'm getting smaller AND stronger. And while I can't say that I bounce out of bed each morning or that I arrive to class thrilled to be moments away from a hard, hard workout, I can tell you that I really do love (and hate) each day there. At the end, I always love it. In the middle, it's a love/hate thing. But if it was easy, this would all be a waste of time. The hour is going to pass one way or another - better to have it pass with a workout that will really, really count. Longest review I've ever written, but I couldn't leave any of it out!

Kaia F.I.T will change your life, no joke. Being an athlete all of my life, I had difficulty…read moreacclimating to life with a sedentary job and no real outlet for activity. I mean, I hate the gym, I really do. Years of playing soccer, track, swimming, has wired me to be outside when being active not indoors on a treadmill watching someone else play sports. At this point in my life I really needed a change and was having a hard time sleeping through the night when I happened upon a Living Social deal at 2 a.m. for Kaia and I decided then and there to give it a whirl. Wow! I was so intimidated, Kaia F.I.T. is based on muscle confusion, so every day it's different and 3 months later, it is still challenging and fun. I don't respond well to drill sergeant type tactics, and Meghan is far from it she's absolutely AWESOME! She's encouraging without being overbearing and inspiring without being pompous. I have lost 5 inches overall and continue to stay with Kaia in an effort to be strong, not necessarily skinny. Since I work in the healthcare field and am working on becoming a clinical health educator, it is imperative for me to set a good example for my patients. Kaia is helping me to change lives; Meghan is helping me to change lives. Kaia also incorporates nutrition into their boot camp and has three levels of nutrition to assist any to incorporate healthier food habits into their lives. I simply can't say enough good things about Kaia F.I.T. and what it has done for me. Come try it out you won't be sorry. Oh, and that insomnia thing? I'm sleeping through the night, every night, blissful, sweet sleep. Thank you Kaia F.I.T and Meghan for making me stronger every day!

I don't know how much it costs to rent, so I can't speak to value specifically, but it is a gem! *Wood floors (designed for a dance studio), but can easily fit 30+ chairs in a large circle (they have the chairs there). *Heat/AC *A sound system (though I've never used it). *A gorgeously remodeled kitchen that is great for groups to sit in and eat (2 big tables each could fit 6-8 people I'd guess), plus a table and chairs on the deck. You could also cook in there. Lots of counter space and a huge refrigerator & freezer. *Two, count them TWO bathrooms available. *A separate room in the entry area with couches and a big desk perfect for a registration table. *A beautiful pond out front with benches. *Near coffee and restaurants & hotels aren't too far. *Small room in the back with a bed if the facilitator needs to rest between sessions! The parking lot is small, but there is more parking on the street. The owners are really nice to work with and very attentive. It's the best workshop space I've seen in the north bay of its size/style.

The space is very clean, has a cute aesthetic, and the staff is super friendly. The studio is located upstairs with easy parking, which made getting in and out really simple. The heated room was comfortable, and the class was not crowded at all. Plenty of space to move and enjoy the workout. It was a 45-minute class, and I sweated so much and felt amazing afterward. They also offer a free first class to try it out, which is such a bonus. Plus, there's currently a special on the MindBody app for three classes for $30. Highly recommend if you want a clean, welcoming, and relaxed fitness studio in Windsor.

She is so knowledgeable and works WITH you to develop a plan that fits your needs and lifestyle all while checking in daily. I'm a busy working Mom in my 40's and she really helped me to prioritize my health and fitness so I can be my best self both for me and for my family. I hadn't done that for a long time and it's probably the best GIFT that anyone has given me. I'm eating better, I'm stronger, and just happier with myself. I'm truly grateful to her for her support and friendship.

I signed up with Ashley because I saw a review that said 'If you want someone to sweetly kick your…read moreass, sign up with Ashley!' so I immediately emailed her. However, she has never once kicked my ass - sweetly or otherwise. Instead she's used her expertise to keep me informed AND accountable. She always meets me where I am. If I'm struggling, she focuses on how to support me. If I'm hungry for information, she feeds me rationale and data. And she always brings me back to my goals. As a nurse, I thought I knew a lot about health and wellness. But my time with Ashley has shown me that there's still so much I don't know - which is why I was spinning my wheels without seeing results for so long. As a newer mom, I was so frustrated at not having enough time or energy to get organized and work on my own fitness goals. I love my old clothes and wanted so badly to wear them again! Ashley coaches me to see what SMALL, SUSTAINABLE changes can have a big, lasting impact. In 8 weeks of working together I'm wearing pants I thought were forever in the past. And although I haven't joined a gym or starting running etc., my awareness of my daily movement and food choices is at an all time high. It has made all the difference. My only regret is not looking for her sooner.
