It is refreshing to have a teacher that doesn't only demonstrate while students follow. Nancy will take the time to first demonstrate and then walk around the class to make adjustments ensuring proper posture and tending to each individual's needs. Her classes can be therapeutic in a physical and spiritual way. With perseverance they become a true practice and an exploration journey of one self. Through the years I can attest she is a life long learner, seeking wisdom from teachers she respects (among others BKS Iyengar and his family in Puna, India), and it all gets passed on to her students. Personally, I feel blessed for having found her!

While visiting my parents for the weekend, I made it my priority to get in a least one yoga class…read morewith my mother. Tucked away in the basement of a building on Greenwich Ave, I was hoping this was a hidden gem. Ugh. Full-on disappointment. My mother and I arrived 30 minutes before class since we did not know what to expect or if it would be crowded. About 15 minutes before class, a woman came down the stairs. Not knowing if she was the owner, or another classmate, we asked her if we were in the right place for class. A terse "yes" was all she managed, before unlocking the door and walking right past us. Clearly, we were new to the studio. But the owner/instructor never asked our names, our experience level or familiarity with Bikram, or did anything to make us feel comfortable and welcome. After she breezed by us and into the studio, we waited outside before poking our heads in, afraid to enter before she was ready. Tack on the OUTRAGEOUS $22 per class fee, and I was less than thrilled before class started and she began barking commands, military-style. Her 10-pack class "discount" is insulting. You save a whopping .50 cents per class. Maybe it's just me, but carpet floors in Bikram/sweaty classes gross me out. How often could you possibly clean it? It was one of the stinkiest rooms I have ever been in, and I frequent a range of sweaty classes. In the entryway, there is a notice posted which asks students to refrain from gossip (as it's often unfounded and unproductive) and criticizing the classroom temperature and instructor. I found this last bit curious before class, and outright hilarious after class. It's as if she's telling you to refrain from unleashing the "smack talk" you undoubtedly have bottled up inside. At the end of the day, this is a business. And it seems the owner has either forgotten or doesn't care that a goal of a successful business is to acquire new clients and encourage their continued patronage. Frosty demeanor + stinky/unsanitary classroom + militaristic teaching style + lack of music/ambiance +outrageous price = NOT WORTH IT. Maybe I've been living in Texas too long, but the lack of any kind of social graces is a deal-breaker.

I know most people get through pregnancy and labor without Prana classes and instructors, but I…read moretruly don't know how! I took weekly prenatal yoga classes with Sarah, Dee and Judi from 12 weeks right up until my water broke. Not only did these weekly sessions help with the physical afflictions that are inevitable with pregnancy (including my horrific sciatic pain), but they helped keep my mind in the right place and prepared me for labor in both body and mind. Hearing from and being around other pregnant women each week was comforting -- like a little mini pregnancy support group. I truly looked forward to these classes and still miss them today. Dee's Yoga for Labor class not only provided me with critical tips about how to ease the pains of contraction and pushing and keep my mind calm throughout labor, but gave my husband a sense of purpose and turned him into the most spectacular labor coach. The community that I found at Prana during pregnancy has become my mom community, too. We all have our babies now and support each other online and some still see each other in person, too. When I (hopefully) get pregnant again, I will be back for weekly classes! I can't say enough good things about Sarah, Dee and Judi. Thank you, ladies, for the comfort and perspective you've brought me and so many others during this amazing time of change and growth!
