I regularly attend bungee fitness classes with Angela Claeson and have a class package because I…read moreenjoy them so much. Angela is an outstanding instructor who consistently goes above and beyond for her students. She walks around the room, provides individual feedback, and makes sure everyone is performing movements safely and correctly. It's clear that she genuinely cares about everyone in the class and wants them to succeed. What sets Angela apart is her energy, attentiveness, and motivation. She is loud and clear when giving instructions, so everyone can easily hear and follow along throughout the workout. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and she creates a positive, encouraging environment that makes the class both fun and challenging. I've taken the class with another instructor before, and the difference was noticeable. Angela stays focused on coaching and supporting participants rather than getting her own workout in. She makes everyone feel welcome, supported, and confident, regardless of their fitness level. The bungee fitness classes are an amazing workout, and Raffa is an excellent wellness facility with a welcoming atmosphere and top-notch programs. I highly recommend Angela's classes to anyone looking for a fun, effective, and engaging fitness experience.

Ive done vigorous vinyasa yoga and enjoy the refreshing pace as a change. Also offers Zumba, and a more vigorous flow class, which I haven't tried yet. Biggest complaint is the minimal soundproofing in the foyer - either incoming students are especially noisy, or the walls are thin (probably the latter)! Occasionally during the final relaxation you're disturbed by happy chatter of folks waiting for their class.

Santosha Yoga Studio is a beautiful place filled with warm and wonderful people. The space itself…read moreis a gorgeous large old victorian style house, with high ceilings, several windows to allow for natural light and a charming antique chandelier and fireplace in the main practice room. Not only are the aesthetics of Santosha immediately calming, but I have always felt welcomed and accepted by the teachers and staff. The front desk employees have consistently been pleasant and helpful--and often drop into the class themselves after everyone is checked in. All of the instructors I've met thus far have been highly knowledgeable, warm and compassionate. Overall, they have balanced explaining poses, breath work and technical aspects of practice with essential core concepts for understanding and deepening one's yoga practice. All of the classes I've attended have been inviting, honest and uphold the true meaning of yoga--unity. I've especially enjoyed the "Energy Healing Clinics" offered monthly (I think it's monthly anyway)--$5 donation for quick Reiki sessions and other energy healing practices. Santosha offers a discount for students as well as military personnel which I think is great--a way to increase accessibility to yoga. The only downside to this studio is that there are relatively few classes offered each week. Nonetheless, Santosha is a wonderful oasis and a hidden gem of Cranston for sure. I would definitely recommend trying this place out.

It has a great location with plenty of parking, (great coffee right in the plaza). The studio is welcoming, warm, clean, with plenty of space. Karen's voice is clear and easy to follow, she instructs through each pose, and provides helpful cues. The class did provide some challenges but without strain or pain. This class is 1 hour and 15 minutes, enough time for meditation and reflection. There are plenty of other classes available, check the great website. Kathy A.

From the musical gifts to the mantras, I have been expecting the honeymoon to end for 9 months now. I think it's safe to say that this is truly just the experience at The Woods.
