I have visited this studio a few times and so far I really like it. I must admit that I am not the…read morebiggest fan of yoga. However, since going to this studio I have increased my yoga participation from annually to a few times per year! Next goal is monthly... The studio is small and cozy although it can seek crowed at times (but briefly) during class change and post class when trying to gather my belongings. The lobby contains a few seating areas and merchandise for sale. There is also an area to store belongings during class (no lock up area so avoid bringing valuables). The class size in all the sessions that I have attended is comfortable, not too crowded. All of the instructors have been pleasant and helpful. The best thing I like about this studio is that the various class options tailor to various yoga levels. So far my favorite class has been DEEP STRETCH because it's easier to keep up with the slower pace for the novice or slacker yogis like myself. I also enjoy SLOW FLOW, which has a steady pace of ongoing movement. Class availability and descripts can be easily found and registered for online,which is a big convenience. There is a parking lot, but it is shared amongst other establishments within the plaza. I would recommend this studio and definitely plan to go again, hopefully someday meeting my ultimate goal of attending yoga weekly!

However, my husband and I have been greatly disappointed at the business end of Be Yoga. Our initial visit was warm and welcoming (when it was Yoga Palace). The employee greeted us and gave a quick tour of the studio. After checking it out, we decided to commit to the month deal of $39 per person for unlimited classes. Then it took a turn for the worst... Our second visit was chaotic and definitely threw off our practice.The doors were locked, no sign indicating that the class was still scheduled, the teacher arrived 10 minutes before class and didn't have a key, and then he got on the phone to call someone to let us all in. The class started a bit late to say the least. When I went to officially register, the woman helping me told me that one of their class packages was a really great deal and I should buy it because the following day the price would change. The pricing didn't change the following day. Her sales pitch did not sit well with me, especially when she was late and then the price didn't actually change. They kept a business phone in the actual studio. I found it distracting when the phone rang...perhaps they can turn the ringer off or take the phone out of the studio area entirely and leave it at the front desk. When the studio changed owners, we were charged again. It has been a hassle to get refunded to say the least: 1) I called, the phone was disconnected; 2) I went to the studio and there was no clear indication that I could get refunded unless I tracked down the original owner; 3) I had to go to the original owner's other business to finally get reimbursed; 4) the studio manager emailed and said we could get a one-month credit to retry the new studio regardless of the reimbursement outcome; 4) When we emailed to start the complimentary month, the manager told us it was miscommunication and the offer was no longer valid since we were finally reimbursed for the double charge that I had to work for. I hope they are able to make significant customer service changes quickly because they have a lot of potential and are located in a great area. However, we will not be returning...no namaste here for me.

Most of my workouts are high intensity so the change of pace was great for me! But don't get me wrong - the class was a workout! I felt stronger than ever - working in slow movements and challenging myself with each stretch. Additionally Lindsay's playlist was on point. We were able to relax and make this workout our OWN and focus on OUR strength. In addition, the studio was very charming. It's got boutique vibes, but includes all the necessities like bathrooms, showers, a changing room and some swag to purchase. Overall I was very impressed with this studio and the instructor.

I wavered on this for a few days but finally realized that it's simply never going to be any cheaper or any more convenient; that this is as good an opportunity as I'm going to get, so why not? Please keep in mind that I'm 260 pounds and do not exercise beyond walking my dogs and swimming. So today was day one of my yoga experience. Lindsey arrived on time to our office and brought everything we'd need to get going: mats, blocks, straps, music, payment punch cards and an awesome, fun attitude :-) And did I mention that she's 6 months pregnant?? (I'll admit that I felt much more confident in doing yoga with my own big belly when I saw hers!) We begin with some explanations of terms and of how Lindsey likes to teach. Next thing I know we're on the floor stretching and doing it. We are doing yoga in the middle of the day at my work... ok- pretty cool :-) As we change poses and laugh at how unbalanced we all are, I discover that I'm having some dizziness issues so I mention it out loud during class hoping it won't spell the end of my yoga opportunities. Lindsey said that was no problem, that there were various poses that would work the same body parts that would not make me as dizzy. I was SO glad I said something instead of just quitting :-) The tone of her response kept me feeling optimistic. (Thanks Lindsey!) Lindsey is so kind and gentle and patient, I felt immediately at ease with her despite the sweat dripping off my nose! I am so thankful for this opportunity to work with Lindsey. I do feel more energized today after our first session and I'm excited to go back :-) If you're nervous or intimidated to try yoga, I highly recommend reaching out to Lindsey, she can devise a plan that will make it workable for you all while addressing any issues or fears you may have.

She had mentioned…read moreloving her yoga studio and I was interested in joining a class based gym rather than continuing my YMCA membership. I would say I was a true beginner at yoga when I joined with very limited knowledge of yogi terminology and definitely not familiar with heated yoga. I started with Topaz class which I would consider a foundational class. Once I became confident/comfortable with the heat and teaching style from Topaz, I began to branch out to the other yoga classes like Diamond, Krystallos, Black Opal, and Bloodstone. Diamond is one of my favorites - it's super dark in the yoga room with candlelight and the flow is very slow. Black Opal is a fun class if you want to try fun poses like wheel or headstand/crow. Bloodstone and Krystallos are true workouts - hydrate before!!! I attended Arrichion for a whole year without trying the circuit training side of the gym but finally gave it a shot during the Athena challenge in May of 2025. My favorite circuit class is Warrior and is different every class. If you're nervous to try the circuit side, bring a friend and come a few minutes early and take some time to look at the TVs above the line of treadmills! There are video clips of what you'll be doing so nothing will be a "surprise" once class gets started. The teachers are very approachable during class and I feel able to ask questions easily no matter who is guiding that day. Around the same time I started trying the circuit side, I began booking private sessions with Jenna who is one of the owners of the studio. I attend with the friend who originally recommended Arrichion to me and our private sessions have helped us both become more confident yogis. Jenna makes unique flows tailored to what we want to work on and even takes our music recommendations to add in. I learned how to hold a headstand within 2 private sessions which was shocking considering I was a complete newbie only a year prior. The recovery options available just make the gym that much more loveable. I use the sauna at least once a week and occasionally brave the cold-plunge (worth it, just scary to get into it at first). The red light meditation room will 100% make you want to take a nap and is nice to do pre-class. This membership is 100% worth it, not only for my health but for the community and fun being a member brings. I am an unlimited monthly member and pay for the membership with my HSA account through benefits at work which the studio helped me figure out how to set up. Highly recommend this studio to anyone who will listen! :-) Do it for the pops!!!

On my previous visits the staff explained how the scoring worked, but that didn't happen this time. Three groups ahead of mine didn't know how to enter their scores or forgot, so they just stopped playing. I also think the reservations could be spaced out better. Groups ended up stacked on top of each other waiting for the same hole. Thankfully, everyone was still pleasant about it. I'd definitely go back, but I hope they make a few operational improvements.

Lights, Camera, DRAGONS!!!!!…read more While visiting Charlotte planning my trip to charlotte I noticed the Children's Theatre of Charlotte was putting on one of my daughter's favorite children's book, Dragons Love Tacos! I bought tickets before we even had a hotel booked! We arrived the day of with our dragon in hand (that came with our copy of Dragons Love Tacos 2) and my toddler son decked out in his dragon sweat suit. We were ready! Our show was on a Saturday at 3pm. If you arrived at 2pm there was a free behind the scenes tour of the theater. We of course took full advantage! 2pm we were squished with many of the other patrons all ready for the free tour. We were greeted and then moved into the theater. It seamed like over half the audience that day showed up for the tour! This made it difficult to move as a group through the backstage and hear everything being said. Was it cool to see where they make the sets and store the props? Yes! It was great feature I am thankful they offered but maybe needs more organizing for large groups. Another little tip for their tour guides, don't tell us what we cant see (costume area) because of the large group. Just bummed me out (and if it wasn't said I wouldn't have thought we missed out!) Also it was posed before the show arts and crafts available. Once the tour ended we were asking around about the crafts. we saw people with crafts. People had no idea! More organization needed as the crafts were taking place inside the library! We showed up with only a few minutes to do crafts because we wasted time asking people about the crafts! The show... not totally like the book but close. My 10 year old thought it was a little too young for her and my 1 year old was quiet for the whole hour! The 4 year old with us, he was mesmerized! So I would suggest when they say children's, aim for kids under 8 here. The production was pretty good with great visuals and a great destruction scene! This is not low budget by any means. Cool thing they did, after the show they let people stay behind and showed how the crew talks to one another on their headsets to make the action happen on stage! (This was geared more toward a 10 year old as opposed to a 4 year old understand what was really happening.) What could have been better? Let people enjoy the show more. The staff working in the audience were intense. I was approached by a kid, like 12 years old, who told me I couldn't give my 1 year old his bottle and the other two kids had to put away their candy. At no point at the beginning of the show was an announcement made about food/drinks in the auditorium. I am a rule follower. I would oblige. But not letting my 1 year old get his bottle seams a lot ridiculous! I kept watching the ushers go up to many other patrons about use of cell phones and everything else. It was distracting. Calm down folks. We came for the dragons. Speaking of which, I told my daughter when we bought the tickets: I don't know how they will make dragons appear on stage so it could be amazing or terrible but either way we will never forget what we will see. Truth: we will never forget. (The Dads wholeheartedly agree!)

They provide everything including props like bolsters and blocks which further makes the experience feel intentional and accessible . The bar has been raised. Kudos to the owners of MYC. You have blessed the village.

I love Matthews Yoga Collective! Living in Matthews there weren't a ton of class options and I…read morestumbled upon MYC through ClassPass. It is a great spot with the nicest and most welcoming people I've ever met at a workout location. Everyone is a mix of ages and levels, so you will never feel left out or behind. My favorite class is the Power Sculpt not only for the workout but Noel is one of the best instructors and people I have ever encountered. She makes class fun and go by fast (in a good way). It is my new must have in my routine because I leave sweating but smiling!

My work decided to have a yoga instructor come in twice a week and offer a group rate type payment…read moreplan. I wavered on this for a few days but finally realized that it's simply never going to be any cheaper or any more convenient; that this is as good an opportunity as I'm going to get, so why not? Please keep in mind that I'm 260 pounds and do not exercise beyond walking my dogs and swimming. So today was day one of my yoga experience. Lindsey arrived on time to our office and brought everything we'd need to get going: mats, blocks, straps, music, payment punch cards and an awesome, fun attitude :-) And did I mention that she's 6 months pregnant?? (I'll admit that I felt much more confident in doing yoga with my own big belly when I saw hers!) We begin with some explanations of terms and of how Lindsey likes to teach. Next thing I know we're on the floor stretching and doing it. We are doing yoga in the middle of the day at my work... ok- pretty cool :-) As we change poses and laugh at how unbalanced we all are, I discover that I'm having some dizziness issues so I mention it out loud during class hoping it won't spell the end of my yoga opportunities. Lindsey said that was no problem, that there were various poses that would work the same body parts that would not make me as dizzy. I was SO glad I said something instead of just quitting :-) The tone of her response kept me feeling optimistic. (Thanks Lindsey!) Lindsey is so kind and gentle and patient, I felt immediately at ease with her despite the sweat dripping off my nose! I am so thankful for this opportunity to work with Lindsey. I do feel more energized today after our first session and I'm excited to go back :-) If you're nervous or intimidated to try yoga, I highly recommend reaching out to Lindsey, she can devise a plan that will make it workable for you all while addressing any issues or fears you may have.

The perfect concept and execution! I'll admit this was my…read morefirst visit and I promise to update but so far, so excellent! Stephanie, the instructor, went at a medium pace and her teaching style kept the semi experienced yogi (like me) engaged and on track. Unfortunately - and maybe it's a fluke - this particular class fell into the bro-ga category. I've been assured this is not typically the case, but golly; will some diversity please show up next time? Afterward we had margaritas and I went to a brewery near Amelie's to wind down. All in all, having yoga and beer is a full on win concept. Please come try it out - provided you're willing to get bendy and relax with a drink afterward. ;)
