My daughters and I been having private sessions with Phoenix for about a month now after my…read moreneurosurgeon suggested Yoga to help my back and joint issues. I've never practiced yoga before but my daughters and I have been very happy with the experience so far. Phoenix is very sensitive to physical, and intellectual difficulties and adapts the class to our needs, breaking down the instructions so we can keep up and get the most out of our time with her. Our last session was a restorative practice which left us all feeling relaxed and de-stressed. It's a great, healthy way to spend time with my girls and we're so glad we found this studio! The atmosphere is calming and peaceful and fees very reasonable. As I said I'm no expert but I would definitely recommend Phoenix!

Phoenix Yoga & Wellness is a sanctuary. I've been to many yoga studios in many cities and many…read morestates over the past decade... and I have never found any place like this before. It really is special.  I would consider myself somewhat of a "yogi nomad" never really finding that studio that resonated with me...however I've found my home. Seymour & the Valley is blessed to have this offering to it's community. The teachers are loving, personable, knowledgeable,and compassionate. They provide caring instructions accompanied by healing words to guide you through your practice, meditation, self awareness, and spiritual journey. I've taken classes with Phoenix, Charles & Rebecca and each has uniquely elevated my practice. The studio is warm and very inviting with a max capacity of roughly 12 in studio 1 . I felt very comfortable the moment I walked in the door. (Btw please remove your shoes when you walk in.) I very much enjoyed the creativity and personal touch each teacher brings to the mat and appreciate the fine balance of personal attention the teachers offer up. The decor is very simplistic and the bay windows shine in just enough to cover the floor in natural light. The pricing is more than reasonable compared to other studios in Fairfield County and the caliber of teachers far surpass any instructor I've experienced at the Edge, LA Fitness or Planet Fitness. Additionally, I wanted to mention the music. Two thumbs way up on the music selections the teachers are bringing into the classes....eclectic, soothing and up lifting. If your a guy who has been considering yoga to improve your flexibility, mental health or physical strength and is apprehensive to step into a studio for whatever reason....this is the spot for you. Just go.

I've never been one to like going to the gym or working out but my personal training sessions with…read moreMichele totally changed that! Michele paid attention to what my strengths and weaknesses were and adjusted exercises accordingly. She is everything you would want in a trainer - great advice on nutrition and she would write down my exercises in a binder that I could look to during the week when I would work out on my own. All the trainers at the gym are very kind and supportive. The gym itself is very clean and not often crowded like other gyms. You won't be disappointed by joining!

First of all, the gym itself is first-rate in class, clean, and all COVID-19 precautions in place. As for the training itself, Rob and his staff go out of their way for their customers to insure their training is EFFECTIVE and that RESULTS are experienced by their clients. In fact, Rob even consulted with my chiropractor to insure that they both were on the same page relative to my personal training. I can honestly say I have watched my body transform for the weeks I have been training with Rob -and it continues, and will continue, as I plan to stay with Rob for the long haul. Forget these other so-called "Fitness Centers" -contact Rob at BDx Fitness in Shelton, Connecticut and see the difference in what a true "customer service" experience is like and what "true results" will occur in your own body transformation.
