I have been a client at Next Level for approximately two and a half years. During this time, I have…read moreworked almost exclusively with two trainers - and when schedules conflicted, I have also worked with four other trainers as 'fill-ins'. I have been thoroughly impressed with the knowledge and professionalism of each trainer, and have learned much from their respective areas of specialization. I can't wait until they move into their new/larger space downtown later this year. The "motto" at Next Level: Don't talk about it...be about it...

However, if you understand that it is very difficult to get out of without moving or proven health issues, then don't expect otherwise. You can sell your membership to someone else, though. All that aside. I really like it. There are good classes, a daycare, a discount at the spa and salon attached to it. The steam room, hot tub, and dry sauna have cooled cloths dipped in essential oils for when you get out. Nice. The equipment is well maintained and there is plenty of it. I recommend it completely.

This gym deserves 5/5 stars, however, the times they are open is VERY limiting…read more Mon-Friday (5AM - 7:30 PM) Saturday (8AM - 1PM) Sunday (9AM - 11AM) If the gym was open a little later on the weekends, like 2PM or 3PM, and open for an extra hour on weekdays, like 8:30 PM or even 9PM, more people would join! I have friends and my sister who all said they would join if they were open a little later. Other than the hours, it's an amazing gym! Being female only, I get amazing workouts in, stretching, take yoga, and find myself there for 2-3 hours when I have the time!

Ahhh it's so good. If you love REAL plants galore, hamsas, music, natural light, and wonderful instructors, COME HERE! 2. Super clean 3. Hard wood floors 4. Local kombucha stocked in the fridge. OmTree has their own blend! And it is delicious! 5. Convenient scan pass for your keychain that is actually really cute 6. Really cute yoga clothes! 7. Wonderful schedule 8.

I highly recommend this studio for beginners and advanced yogis alike! I wish there was an OmTreeShala in Dallas! I would go every day :)

While I was in grad school at KU, a friend and I decided to do a tour of yoga studios in Lawrence…read moreby doing the introductory packages at all the studios. Om Tree was the first studio we tried and we never left. Until I moved away, that is. Since I moved away I have tried four different yoga studios where I am living now and none of them even come close to competing with Om Tree. I haven't been to Om Tree since the summer of 2013 (but have been meaning to write a review since then) but the things I loved about it then were: 1) Amazing teachers. They were all awesome and provided assistance with poses, excellent adjustments, and often used the Sanskrit words for the poses, which I really appreciated. 2) Great music during the classes. This is a big deal to me and one of the things that's disappointing about my current studio is that many of the teachers don't use music at all. 3) Lovely studio. I liked the mirrors so I could check my alignment, the natural light coming in through the windows, the plants, the scent, everything. 4) Great variety of classes and times. 5) Student discount! OmTree was the first place I practiced yoga regularly, and that practice helped me get through my second year of grad school which coincided with planning a wedding with my long-distance fiance. It was exactly what I needed at that time. I think of OmTree often and it's probably one of the top 5 reasons I wish I still lived in Lawrence!
