I took my first trapeze yoga class this week and I must say this was the most fun I had working out…read moreever! I felt pretty nervous going into my first class knowing that I have sciatica & felt pretty discouraged with other yoga classes in the past triggering more back pain. I expressed my concerns to Roni, owner of Good Moodra & one of the instructors at the studio, during my intake/first visit consultation prior to starting class. She listened to my concerns and guided me through my first class right next to me, telling me helpful tips throughout class. Jaeda, one of the instructors, was so helpful and kind in helping me set up my account & booking my first 7-day pass. Kathy and Michelle also really nice & helped me through my first week of class! It just seems like such a cute studio that has a great community of positive people who want to build you up wherever you are in your fitness journey. TLDR: For my chronic back pain girlies, I would try checking out this yoga studio--it was worth the long commute for me!

Since it was my first time at the studio, I came early. There was plenty of parking in the plaza. Upon entering, the studio had a lot of plants. They also had a great tea selection in front. I checked-in with my instructor Tina and she gave me a quick tour of the studio. We went to the aerial silks to pick one that was the height for me. I also recommend coming early so the instructor can adjust your silk to the height you need. Tina had an amazing south bath set up, more equipment than other studios I have been to. She has a peaceful and intuitive energy about her. I am familiar with silks so I didn't need directions to get in, but I heard her give really helpful instructions to the students who were first timers to aerial. When it was class time, we all got into the silks in a cocoon pose. Tina mentioned students usually like to be on their backs or their sides. I normally lay on my back but that intrigued me so I also tried laying on my side during class to experience the difference. The sound bath was so soothing, I emerged from my cocoon a beautiful relaxed butterfly. There were definitely students who dozed off and fell asleep passed the end of class. A great restorative class led by a great instructor. I would love to come back to this studio when my schedule permits for more classes with Tina. Until next time!

When any of us got stuck, she'd demo the move again and break it down until it clicked, which made everything feel doable and safe. I also love how many different types of classes they offer, including burlesque, pole dance, and aerial silks, so there's always something new to try. The space feels private and secure thanks to the curtains that cover the windows, which helped me focus without feeling watched. If you've been curious but nervous, this is the place to start but they also have advanced classes. Brittany is fantastic and the energy is welcoming from the moment you walk in.

She was easy to follow and did a great job breaking down tricks and transitions, as well as spotting clients when needed. The pace of class was just-right also. The studio was cute, clean, and nicely organized. From the outside, it looked like it would be a small space but it actually felt pretty spacious inside. They have an interesting layout with a check-in desk/merch area in the front, a studio with 6 poles in the middle, and then a back room with cubbies, supplies (towels, alcohol bottles, etc), and restrooms. The front door was locked during class so it felt very safe and private. There were two other ladies in class with me, both of whom were friendly and encouraging to others in class. Love that! Just good vibes all around. I can't wait to come back to Platinum for more of Genevieve's classes and will recommend to others!

I found Smoke & Mirrors Fitness on MindBody app while I was looking for an Aerial studio. I loved…read moregoing to aerial classes prior to the pandemic butt many of my favorite spots went out of business. I was so excited I purchased their New Client Special that wasa 5 Pack of classes for $99. It was only valid for a month. I reserved the Aerial Silks class on a Tuesday evening. Per the usual new studio first visits, arrive a little early to sign their waiver. I arrived about 15 minutes early and there was no staff at the front. There was a bunch of unfilled and filled waivers. Red flags leaving their customer's private personal data laying around like that. I filled out a form but kept it with me until I can hand it to staff. It was a mess of girls rushing out from the prior class and girls rushing in for the next class. Total chaos. I put my things away in a cubby and stood around until some authority person came along. I prefer the studios where you get your own silk, but at this studio they will have you share silks with other students. They divided us into a group of beginners, and another side for the intermediate and advanced students. We started off with stretches. They are super elegant and stretched with grace here. Good form. Then when we began, the instructor would give us a few steps at a time to work on, then we would piece multiple steps together. When I asked the instructor if she can help me take photos she was too busy and told me to ask another student. I paid the studio, not random students who are strangers to me. It might have been fun with a friend but I did not enjoy going alone. Especially when there's stranger armpit sweat on the fabric. Not enjoyable at all. I actually walked out before the end of class cause I was so over it. I considered coming back to another class to use the sessions I pay for. However their class times are limited. Maybe only 2-3 classes after work, but some of those classes are advanced classes or classes I don't have an interest in. While deciding on my rating for this place... a 3 didn't seem like a good fit cause a 3 is average. If it was average I would have at least came back to use the classes I paid for. As someone who goes to a fitness studio for work outs 3-4 days a week, I literally just abandoned the package I paid for and went to another studio where I enjoyed my work outs. To each their own. This place provides niche classes not every studio offers. However the classes are limited and I don't enjoy sharing space with strangers.

If people are sweating, you should have water readily available IMO. Aside from these basic necessities, the studio is gorgeous. The poles are tall and all the ones I've tried have decent spin and seem fairly new. There's instructors here seems kind and I like that there are advanced beginner classes so you can level up from beginner before intermediate/advanced. I only wish they were a little less expensive but I like that they offer deals for new students. Hope to keep coming back here to continue my pole journey.

The space is warm, welcoming & has a unique personal style, which puts me at ease. This place was recommended by a friend and I was both excited and nervous at first because I had very little ariel experience prior. I'd attended 1 pole class and 1 silks class at other studios, but never Lyra, hammock, or showed up consistently to classes. As a person in a larger body with stronger legs than arms, I'm always nervous about doing aerial exercise and going to group classes in general. Yes, of course I know there are a lot of thicc aerial baddies, but the worries were still there for me. I found this to be a very inclusive space! While I've seen a wide range of skill level- from very beginner to professionals, there is always a feeling of nonjudgment and meeting people were there at here. It feels like everyone is encouraged to show up as themselves. I felt comfortable not knowing and making mistakes. Because of that I was able to relax , let go, and have fun! This is a place that you can really play as an adult!!! They offer a wide range of classes, events, and also types of aerial rigs. They also offer sensory hour, open studio and different options to accommodate a variety of needs, which I love! This experience feels like it unlocked my inner child on the monkey bars and I've been back several times since!! What's unique about this place is the various workshops offered, the varieties of apparatus, and most importantly, the overall vibe and accessibility!! I would strongly recommend this place due to the amazing vibes, variety of rigs and classes, and inclusivity!! I would 10 out of 10 recommend this studio both beginners and advanced aeealosts- there's something here for everyone. If you're considering it, just go. This place is amazing! You won't regret it!!
