The instructor had the ability to both push you past your limits and encourage you for just showing up. With yoga, you use your body weight to exercise through various poses that help you strengthen your muscles. This studio makes your experience both physical and mental. I had one of my favorite Memphis yoga experiences here. They allow new visitors to try out the classes unlimited for two weeks at $35. They have in-person, online and private classes with 50, 60, and 80-minute formats for every level, beginner to advanced. The classes include Sumits-style hot yoga, tabata-style hot Pilates, a vinyasa style yoga flow, Ashtanga Short Form and Yin Yoga. They run 5:50 a.m. to 8 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Sundays. Check them out. They seem like good people.

This studio is spotless and well-equipped, especially known for its heated classes. There are men's and women's locker rooms with showers and plenty of space to freshen up. In class, they provide everything you need: blocks, 3- and 5-lb weights, and a water refill station. They also sell a few snacks and drinks at the front check-in. What I love most is how every class feels intentional. Sculpting yoga and pilates build strength and stamina in the best way, while yin offers the perfect counterbalance for recovery and grounding. Ashtanga and flow are dynamic yet approachable. They even offer free sessions: Mondays at Overton Park and Wednesdays at Mud Island. At the end of class, they bring around lavender-infused cold towels to help cool down after all that heat. I usually cover my whole face and then place it on my neck (pure bliss). The instructors are kind and attentive, making sure each student feels supported. The community is welcoming, and I always leave feeling calmer than when I walked in.

I bought a 6 month membership when I was pregnant, and the instructors did a great job of making accommodations for me. Amy and LJ both went above and beyond sending me an email of prenatal poses and sharing some extra research they did for me. There are a variety of classes- from challenging sweat and sculpt classes to more relaxing stretch classes. Instructors are knowledgable and never pretentious- great at challenging you while supporting people on different levels. The studio is beautiful and welcoming, and it's a fun excuse to be in south main. Anytime that I've reached out about something to the owners (scheduling, feedback on a suggested class) , they have been over the top accommodating. I even got put on bed rest for the last few months of pregnancy, and they let me save my last 2 months of membership for when I'd be able to do it. I'm sure according to the contract I signed, they didn't need to do this, so it was a really generous offer. I couldn't say enough great things about the studio, classes, or overall management of downtown yoga!

It's time now to share the wealth I'm posting this at night…read morewith stealth So you've all been waiting To see my Gym rating I'm giving 5 stars to Church Health If your church does not constantly demand donations, then your Church Health is probably good. If they are always asking for money, then either your Church Health is bad, or your Church Head is greedy. Or both. One of the better YMCA facilities I have found anywhere in the country with a shiny brand-new locker room and a lot of really shiny brand new things. They have cool combination lock concepts and it is actually very easy to use, and there are about 7,000 sets of instructions posted all over the locker room just in case you forget the very simple straightforward way of locking it up - as opposed to Louisville where they have lockers that basically just lock your stuff away and never give them back until you call the manager to come and let you in. Anyway I was happy that they had a cable machine even though it wasn't the best one. There is no chest exercise machine but they had a little bit of everything else and even though they're using a cheaper not-so-great company to provide the equipment it hardly ever gets used to it's all in very good working condition for the most part. The weights are the kind that I don't really like but at least nobody is hardly ever using them, and they're in front of the mirror and they have a few benches here so I'd say the gym has done pretty well for itself. I think it's a fantastic facility that just needs some more people to come and join to keep it going and justify all the good stuff they have here. One of the thing that it needs though is better parking. It's so hard to find parking out here, and then a long walk to the door and up the steps to get into the facility. Better to use the elevator if you're carrying a lot or not great at walking. It also has ridiculously friendly employees and I really appreciate that. They were extremely nice to me and I would definitely come back and use this particular YMCA in future especially considering that parking is free here if you can actually find it, whereas it's expensive downtown. Somewhere between 4 and 5, but I'll go with 5 because they're so nice and more people should be members.

They have gear for everyone, except the hardcore powerlifter (meaning no 100 lb plates, jack racks, platforms, bar jack for deadlift loading, competition bench, or chalk stand.) They DO have squat racks, Smith machines, flat and incline benches, a range of dumbbells up to 140 lbs, and an array of basic HammerStrength machines. The bonus for me is that they have FreeMotion machines, which are the bomb for plane-and-range-of-motion training. They've also got assorted tubing, medicine and stability balls, and Bosus. In case someone from DAC reads this, it would be super-cool if you could install a TRX rack or two. Approximately half the work-out space is devoted to cardio machines, and there's an upstairs where classes are held. I always thought DAC was great for families. It's located at Cox Park where the baseball and soccer fields are. So, it's convenient if the family is involved in those activities as well. However, they do not have a pool; nor do they have a sauna, steam or whirlpool. No big deal for me, but some people demand those things.
