I have been curious about Sanctuary Wellness Center & Yoga Studio for a long time now. I was so…read moreexcited to see an opening for Aerial Yoga during a time I was available. I made sure to arrive early... especially when there was this excerpt on the class that says, "Arriving late, even unintentionally can take away from others - their peace, focus, and time". The parking lot was hard to find. I actually had to circle it a few times before finding it, and parking in their back lot. I entered from the back door and made my way through the front to check in with the owner. I checked in early. I signed in. I SIGNED THE WAIVER. The owner was going to give me a studio tour but she kept getting busy with other things. That's fine, not an issue. Their studio space is small. For aerial, there are 9 silks, so 1 for the instructor and 8 for the students. The front left is a bit close to some equipment so the teacher took that spot when it got busy. The spacing is a bit tight, and can cause students to bump into each other if they are not mindful. Also the studio is off a busy street and I can hear the cars driving by, so it could be more relaxing. Come early! Especially with aerial. It is important to adjust the silks where the bottom is at your pelvic height. A lot of the students did not come in until the start of class time, and the instructor still had to lower the silks and then adjust it to their height. OUR CLASS STARTED 10 MINUTES LATE. I don't blame the instructor because they can't turn away their students... but that is 10 minutes wasted from my time even though I was early and prepared. The aerial class itself was a great work out. A bit on the basic end of aerial yoga. I know the instructor mentioned she designs it based on the level of the class and we had some folks who were first timers so the instructor went easy on us. The owner offered to take pictures for us, but she went away. The instructor was nice to take photos too, but her yoga skills are definitely better than her photography skills. In one of the photos where my face and body shaped looked the best, she had her whole thigh in it. Sigh. We were 3 minutes from class ending time and we didn't even get into the silks for a cocoon savasana. At that point I just left cause it didn't seem like we would be doing the savasana or anything. What annoyed me the most ... is receiving a messaging telling me I didn't sign a waiver and that I need to sign one next time. WOW !! I came early... signed the waiver... had my time wasted... and now I get this email telling me I didn't sign the waiver. Before receiving that message I was in the air about coming back. But after seeing that message I was so annoyed. I am not coming back... It would have been more tactful to wait for me to come back and ask me at that time to sign if they misplaced the last one. I work out to relax but this whole experience was so stressful. I shouldn't have my time wasted if THEY are disorganized.

I wouldn't want to park in the neighborhood/ street. Very nice and friendly staff! They are very welcoming and inviting when you arrive! The waiting room is relaxing and comfortable.

I just had my session with Susan yesterday, and I can't thank her enough…read more i got a psychic medium reading, and I really wanted to hear from my dad. Not only did he come through, but my mom did as well. She described their personalities and what they went through perfectly. She also picked up on my daughter who is going through a tough time here, and helped me regarding her. Now all this alone would've been a great reading, but she also went beyond and saw that I've been stuck on what my next path is. She described my personalities to a tee, and validated that I've been toying with a career in the energy field. She gave me suggestions on where I should best use my skills, and it was something I've been thinking about for a long time! Not only is Susan a great medium, but a stellar coach in guidance. Thank you Susan for such a wonderful life changing experience! Alison Cutrone

I've been in the healing, expanding, self Actualization game for the past decade. I'm extremely discerning about who I see for certain ceremonies and healing modalities. I always tell my own clients, to only see practitioners for whom you have a personal referral. Well...my friends!! I am personally referring you (and anyone who needs) to this incredibly magical, capable, special, insightful, aligned, and ON PURPOSE duo! In my experience, you're either in alignment with your purpose or you are not. Brandon and Chelsea most definitely are. Their reverence toward their craft is meticulous, obvious, and absolutely joyous to behold abd experience. I personally recommend their Kambo, Breathwork, and Sound Journeys. I've partaken in innumerable of the aforementioned, and the most profound of all of my experiences, have been with these two beautiful Souls. The love THEY share amplifies their gifts and services. You must experience this unique power they co-create with love, respect, dignity, grace, and care. It's an honor to have been served sacred medicine in all forms, from Orange County Reiki and Sound! Love, Andrea
