She has been the BEST gift I could give my body! My mind and body feel so good after a session with her! She has an excellent memory and knows my body even better than me. And, she's always in a great mood: warm, peaceful, welcoming and concerned. She truly takes an interest in your whole well-being. When I started 7 years ago, I had no core strength at all whatsoever and had never done Pilates in my life. Now, I'm actually doing advanced exercises due to my core strength! Thanks to Junko I've re-discovered a love for exercise that I forgot I had. Having Pilates as a back-bone, allows me to explore other fitness areas with an immediate comfort & confidence (i.e. going to boot camp classes, etc.). I'm so happy to be doing Pilates with Junko as I know it has and will continue to help my body gain stronger; thus, further proving age is just a number. I feel utterly grateful to have Junko as my weekly Pilates instructor.

Her sound healing class is one of the best I have ever attended, it really balanced some issues I have in my vagal nerve due to childhood ptsd. I felt a lot more grounded the week I attended the sound healing. She also knows how to instruct people into difficult poses. She eases the student into difficult poses at the level they are capable of, so they can evolve into the pose without injuring themselves. Her graceful teaching style definitely shows her years of experience and wisdom . Yoga Hale is a cozy beautiful home environment that I really enjoy and gotten a lot of healing from. I highly recommend!

Quick easy process to sign up and sign waiver online. When I arrived, Chantel, the teacher greeted me at the entrance and checked me in. It didn't look like the information was received on her end, but it was again, a quick easy process. After paperwork and payment, she guided me back to the studio. It appeared to be a maze through another studio with curtains surrounding the workout floor and through another with a curtain. This was a smaller studio with about 8 infrared heating elements around the perimeter. There were only three students, including me. Chantel is in incredible shape and she led her class in a way that resembles that. Although I've taken hot yoga classes before within this lineage, she strayed a bit from the normal routine and it pressed me to work harder than I had in the past. Luckily, I survived! She very much tailored the class to the participants, which was very cool. This is a really cool studio with multiple areas for exercise and even a tatoo shop in the back! Hope to return for another class in the future! Keep on Yelp'n!

He doesn't talk about karate in regards to self defense that much. He focuses on the accuracy of the moves and how well the children are focusing in the moment.

When and where each of them is appropriate for. We go twice a week and my boys and I love it!
