The instructors are prepared, informative, and ready to modify sequences if students arrive with injuries. Students are encouraged to go to their "edge" and try poses, albeit listening to sensations within the body is also important to prevent injuries. After the 75 minute class relaxation is the sensation students feel. Then the teachers are available to answer questions or concerns. Vinyasa, Trauma, Yin/Yang, Gentle, Restorative, Meditation, Workshops, and Kid and Family classes are all available. I recommend this gem of a studio in the center of Simsbury. Pat

I had the pleasure of attending a Pilates Reformer class with Mary at The Posture Bar as a part of…read morethe Yelp Fit Club. What an awesome experience! This cozy studio off Farmington Ave. has everything you need for a great workout. This class was my first time doing pilates with the reformer machine, and Mary was sure to explain everything and help us perfect our form. She was so calming and knowledgeable; you can tell she is passionate about her job and her clients. The workout was much more difficult than I thought it would be-in a good way! Of course Mary makes all the moves look so easy, but I could definitely feel it in my legs and thighs the next morning. Even through a short, introductory session, I could see how regularly attending classes like this would help get that toned look. Drop-ins are $35, but there is a 3 for $20 deal going on now. Mary is also Barre certified, so I am looking forward to trying one of those classes, too!

She had a sunny disposition and clearly loves teaching and is invested in the health of her clients. We started with learning all the basics of the reformer and perfecting our form. It was such a smooth machine and a heck of a good workout! We worked a lot on activating our core, inner & outer thighs and glutes. Under Mary's guidance we focused on breathing techniques to get the most out of each position. I had a great time in the sunny little studio which is located only a couple minutes off 84! So easy to find. I hope to take advantage of the deals she's offering in the near future. Gotta get toned up for the wedding! Thanks Mary!

Offerings include rise n shine, yin, gentle, core, slow flow, vinyasa, healing circles, meditation and workshops. Sounds occasionally arise from the eatery below yet the focus, space and view outshine any slight distraction. Kristin's (the owner/chief yogini) teacher training (YTT200) incorporates anatomy along the way of the coursework with an optional YTT100 personal development program, only attending the first half. The latter is good for those looking to grow in the understanding of their practice without the commitment to a full six months, or with no inkling to teach. Kristin organizes yoga immersion trips annually. This year Peru and Bhutan. Next year Italy is back on the schedule. Check out a class, join a workshop or visit for Scott's healing circle, no yoga experience required. You will be even more grateful!

She made me feel so comfortable and heard during the intake meeting, and offered so much support as I incorporated her suggestions. The changes we made had the desired effect: I reduced the medication I take for my allergies, feel less anxiety, and shed a few pounds. I highly recommend Roots Yoga and Nutrition for beautiful yoga practices and excellent nutrition guidance and support.

She also had a really fun playlist - better than other barre3 classes I've done before for sure. The studio itself is really pretty and bright with a good amount of merchandise for sale. It's a nice open room with lots of mirror real estate. The class itself was more crowded than what I'm accustomed to in New York and I found myself bumping into my neighbor a couple times which was uncomfortable. Imo they would really benefit from reducing the class sizes by 5-10%. I was also a little frustrated by the conflicting info on their website which said in two different places that all equipment was provided, and then separately that you were responsible for bringing your own mats and props. As it turns out, equipment IS provided, but that should really be updated for clarity's sake. All in all, a good and fun workout and I'll be back, but some frustrations with the studio as a whole.
