Wow! First time at space & soul and was blown away by the facilities, amenities and instruction…read more Gorgeous space walking in, loved the lounge space and then the spacious lockers, change rooms and showers. I got to see the space upstairs and loved the bright light, big windows and open space with plants. Went back downstairs for the yoga and sound bath experience and loved that space too! So intimate with ambiant lighting and all the props. The yoga flow was great. And then the sound bath - so relaxing with some essential oils and blanket. Can't wait to come back.

Started going to this studio to check it out! They offer various yoga and meditation classes and…read moresoon they will have an outdoor sauna. I love how mats, blocks, etc are all provided and the amenities are also great - showers are always cleaned and stocked. They also have tea on sight. The upstairs yoga studio is absolutely beautiful with floor to ceiling glass windows and lets alot of light in. The classes are a hit or miss for me - I'd say some classes are really good and usually full (empower flow and yogalates) while some of the other classes are not as enjoyable and a bit slow. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. I reccomend popping in during their $15 Happy hour class deals, since they will no longer be on Classpass in May.

I had the best massage of my life from Samareh at Halsa!…read more Samareh brings a lot of mindful, skillful caring to her sessions. Her touch is as gentle as water yet confident as a caring mother. The pressure is stimulating but never intrusive. She guides you through a customized mind-body journey by smoothly adjusting her technique based on your verbal and non-verbal feedback. I feel under her touch, I melted and reformed into a better version of myself!

If you think this is for you, go ahead, try the introductory information session…read more Then ask yourself: Why is something so great for humanity controlled by one organization? Why won't they tell me what it is? Why do they answer every question with a ridiculous analogy designed to distract me and make me forget the question I asked in the first place? Why does the David Lynch foundation own billions in real estate? Where does this money come from? Above all, ask yourself this: why does this "meditation teacher" remind me of a used car salesman? This is not what you are seeking is supposed to be about. You should not have to be sold or pay upfront if you don't even know exactly what you are paying for. Look elsewhere! If you find yourself asking any of these questions, I promise, it's for a reason. Just google "transcendental meditation scam". You'll find enough first hand testimonies to answer your questions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gq0rsiw6IFo

I started the TM program when I was in College because I felt I badly needed some mind clarity so…read morewas willing to try anything. That was over 30 yrs ago and I still use it every day! Actually, I still have friends who have continued using it from way back then. TM teachers make next to no money because there are people don't like to pay for something that they feel should be given for free. Really, don't teachers pay to receive their training and certifications and advertise and be available for what they do? I know a few TM teachers and know their passion is with the program, teaching the technique, not selling the program. I would highly recommend this program for a quick deep rest, and many other benefits that I get from it that I have no idea how to explain. I'm 60 and look 50 and have never been in a hospital. By the way, I managed through college and eventually completed my Master's Degree!

Do not go here. Shadey owners trying to pull a fast one when cancelling and try to charge another…read moremaintenance fee even though I had already paid one for the year. You need to go in person to cancel, mail or fax your cancellation. I am pretty sure I am still going to be charged even after I have cancelled. The place is old, dirty with mediocre classes. When signing up she asks you to leave a google review before even going to the gym. How desperate can you get? Its clear shes just trying to get her reviews up after a ton of bad reviews. I am not the only one of my friends that experienced all the same issues. You can't even google review anymore so things have clearly gotten bad. Even with it bring an affordable gym, it is definitely not worth the price. Stay away!!!!!

I started going to Lexy at Ocean Bay Wellness during a very stressful time of my life. The energy…read morehealers I had gone to in the past were not available or not a fit. Because part of my challenges include psychic attacks and dark entities, I wanted to go to someone that my intuition and guides indicated had a strong energetic system, who was well connected to the divine, and who was a good match for me. Lexy fit the bill, and I am happy that I chose her. Lexy does Reiki, Angel healing, and other healing. I am able to get into a deep state of relaxation with Lexy, and feel more like myself after her sessions.

I'm really glad I found this place. I had been feeling very negative, agitated and down recently…read moreso wanted to try Reiki again. I had been to other Reiki places before but it didn't feel like a professional wellness centre like this place. First of all the space is beautiful and bright. It just feels peaceful and calming. The location is right by the beach and absolutely gorgeous. Lexi was very kind, sweet, and supportive. She made sure to answer all my questions before hand. When I lay on the table I immediately felt safe, I began to relax and felt like a huge weight was being lifted off of me. I could actually feel the heat coming from Lexi's hands and after our session, I felt totally relaxed, I felt like I could breathe so much deeper! I slept like a rock that night and since then have been feeling so much more optimistic, clearer and calmer.

Tried yyoga for the first time ever using class pass. The studio is really clean and calming…read more Amenities - free tea in a quiet waiting area before and after class (minus the last class of the day) - free infrared sauna usage if you have a class (minus after the last class of the day) - showers, lockers, blow dryer - water refill station Bring your own yoga mat and towels/ you can rent it for a fee Overall. It's a nice studio with nice ambiance, but I found it a little difficult to see what the instructor was doing since I wasn't up front. I think I still prefer yoga studios with mirrors. In addition, I prefer "hot" yoga. The instructor I had that taught yin yoga with sound bath is really nice and attentive, but she said it was her last class that day and will be teaching at other y yoga locations further from me. So this review is based on the studio itself.

The classes are consistently excellent whether it be gentle yin/flows to more challenging power classes. The instructors encourage you to move at your own pace. After class, I always love sitting enjoying their tea. It's such a peaceful spot in the middle of the busy city. Whether you're a pro Yogi or not, Y at burrard is the place to visit for a good sweat and relaxation.

The classroom I have been too is heated so it can be challenging for some people. The instructors are very passionate and workout changes every class. The changing rooms are small but clean. Lockers with keys are available. There is a sauna as well as cold plunge. A nice gym to check-out if you are on Classpass.

Staff was seen cleaning often. Sean at the front desk was very hospitable, showed me around as it was my first time in the space and what to do. Loved the sauna, it's small but mighty, they come in often to splash water onto the rocks with essential oils. You do have to walk down 10 steps and then up a couple steps of stairs to get to the outdoor sauna. I requested for it to be 0 degrees and they gladly put in a couple buckets of ice for me. I would love to return with friends!
