It is a small studio with just four machines, which means that everything feels personal. The instructors are SO nice (major props to Karen and Sabrina!), and it is the first time I have ever been excited to go work out. They also have lovely gatherings for the community, like coffee walks and potlucks, which is a really nice touch. OBP is more like a community than a gym, and that is really wonderful. Plus, I am getting an awesome workout on the Reformer!

All in all, I loved this class and studio - the students themselves were kind and friendly, and the studio is stocked with some solid yoga equipment, from plush bolsters to Manduka yoga blocks (I LOVE these). The loaner mat was a high quality Liforme mat- I've always wanted to try one of these and was not disappointed! If you live in the area, definitely take advantage of their 2 week unlimited yoga deal. And if you don't, give the studio a try - the one class I took was enough to calm and center me before a hectic work conference :)

Sure, the studio is gorgeous and peaceful and spacious. Sure the yoga is legit and high quality. But what separates this studio isn't the high credibility or reliability. What separates Grateful Yogini is the transparent intimacy that is sincere and genuine which naturally come through in the teaching practice. My buddies and I attended the mediation class on Thursday night. The normal instructor was ill so we were fortunate enough to have the owner, Gretchen, run our class. The google maps location wasn't exactly accurate but we found the studio located in the complex with the sign PHHacility sign on the side of the building. Despite the studio being located next to a basketball facility, it was easy to fall deep into meditation with the white noise and calming music taking up the background. Gretchen was connecting and attentive when she instructed throughout the class and the studio had all the gear needed to facilitate a complete experience. I'm certainly coming back. The first time client drop in class rate was only $7. I will be buying the five classes package for $40 and bringing more friends. I give Grateful Yogini the highest recommendation.

The instructor Gretchen was very accommodating and knew what to say to help me relax. All my anxiety and worries just melted away and I left the class feeling refreshed. If anyone needs a reset or just want to boost their energy and focus I would highly recommend this class.

It can be a little bit hard to find if you've never been, as it's incorporated into a church campus and the sign isn't very obvious. The class that we tried incorporated a sound bath at the end, and the yoga flow itself was very low-key and simple. We loved the sound bath, and I find that it does help with meditation and relaxation. I'm an experienced yogi, so this class felt extremely easy for me. The only downside to the class is that it was extremely full, so I didn't feel comfortable fully stretching in some positions because I didn't want to hit my neighbor. I'm sure that I'll be back again to try another class!

desert mvmt offered an outdoor class a few weeks ago at Rise Uptown Hotel and I went to that event…read moreto see what their instructors and style was about. The outdoor class wasn't purely yoga and it was more like a HIIT class, and it was good to switch up my routine. I enjoyed that outdoor class and as a complimentary offer, they gave everyone a 1 week free pass to their studio. I don't often pass up free passes, so today I figured I would come in and check out their sculpt class. I have taken plenty of yoga classes, but just never a sculpt class, so that was fun to try something new. The studio and reception area are all in one big room and when I stepped in a little before 5pm, I was greeted by very loud thumping music as the class before was still going on and it's interesting that this place does not have some kind of sound divider between where the class is taught and where you check in/lounge area. So that felt a bit awkward for me, but not a big deal. Staff here are nice and helpful. There is one bathroom and I was able to change there before class. Storage area is small, but still very manageable. The studio does provide mats for you, but I didn't know that and had already brought my own, which the staff allowed me to use during class. It's recommended to start with 2 lb weights for sculpt class, which worked out fine for me. Blocks, mats, weights are all provided for you and a water station also available. The class was well taught and I definitely got a great, sweaty workout and I did enjoy the high tempo pop music that accompanied the class. Only issue was that the instructor's microphone did get a bit staticky during class. I also really like that this studio has mirrors on two sides of their wall and with ballet bars. Having mirrors in class really helps you to realign yourself properly. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and will sign up for a few more classes and check out some other styles. If you like a high energy workout with good instruction and don't mind a one room experience, this could "work out" for you (no pun intended), as it did for me!
