I discovered this place last year while driving by. I looked it up online and thought it was worth…read morechecking out. I called and spoke with the owner, Vicki, who was extremely kind and helpful. She told me about the studio and the classes, and how I can get the first class free, etc. I went in to check it out a week later, and was happy to see the place to be so inviting and cozy. It's nested inside a strip mall and not much to look at from the outside, but inside it opens up to a comfortable waiting area with nooks to store you stuff, and a large studio with wooden floors and ambient lighting. Vicki is a wonderful teacher who is very pleasant and relaxed. She doesn't push you at all, and she teaches you to be patient and non-judgmental with yourself, and do what your body tells you. I find the classes a good workout in terms of strengthening your body and improving flow. And I like how she incorporates a lot of mindfulness into the practice, so the experience is very holistic. I've not taken too many classes with other teachers, but they each have their own style; you just have to find what works for you. They do offer various levels and classes in addition to yoga, so there are many options. The rate is also reasonable. You can get an 8-class pass that doesn't expire, which is great if you aren't sure how often you'll go (a lot of other places only honor a pass for a certain number of months). I definitely recommend this place if you want to try out yoga in a comfortable and caring environment.

So far I've done two classes here, but I'm a fan! Everyone I've spoken with has been incredibly…read morehelpful and welcoming. I love the studio; big enough to have room to stretch out, but not an auditorium or anything. Very cozy and calm. I've enjoyed the classes I've done (Basic 2 with Dee and Yoga With Irma). Both are a little slower than some of the popular Power Yoga classes around the area, but it was exactly what I'm looking for! A great pace that allows me to really focus on my breath and form, not just "power" through it. There are a variety of classes to try, so this studio seems great for the beginner and the yogi alike. As the other review mentioned, the price is actually amazing. $12 drop in and ten classes for $80? I can tell you, that is the best price in the area, and I know because I've been looking for a place just like this! I will definitely report back after I've had a few more classes here, but I'm sold right now and I don't envision that changing. They also have some pretty interesting looking workshops that I will definitely try in the future. So happy to have found Yoga One!

When I asked the manager to explain my contract options, I was told, "what do you not understand about the contract?" No effort to help, no consideration for a longtime member, just dismissiveness.

I had the pleasure of participating in one of Jennifer's classes at a local athletic apparel store…read morethis past weekend. I can only assume that her one on one and group classes are just as good. Over the last three years I have experienced a slew of Yoga teachers who either lacked the flow one so desires or who try to turn yoga into Zumba. Jennifer, quite pleasantly, avoids the pitfalls so many others fall into. She does a session that is strenuous, but not overly so. Plus her nature, attitude, and attention to ones breathing and posture are a refreshing break from those that get too caught up in the "exercise". Although not traditional per se, Jennifer's approach is well rooted in more traditional practice and her sequential flow is spot on, again something one either gets and has or just doesn't. So few do. I went to class the other day suffering from weeks of back pain that I have been trying to work through. For some reason the combination and degree of stretching mixed with the right amount of muscle tension and movement gave me almost immediate and lasting relief. Jennifer's humor, vitality, and masterful use of ear plugs added to the experience. I was challenged to go beyond where I had been just days before yet with the urging of "finding one's own place and comfort." Again, everything just felt right. I highly recommend that anyone take any offered classes or workshops by Jennifer. You won't be disappointed!

I also enjoyed how they don't try to sell packages and slide them down your throat. I usually avoid places like that or any salesy personnel. Really enjoyed how it's super laid back and chill and do it at your own pace. I've been lifting weights since 2018 and never thought that i could feel such stretches in my muscles during Pilates. I can say that I have grown love for Pilates. !

I had been recovering from a herniated disc that also led to the discovery of mild scoliosis, which is not abnormal for older women, in particular. I took all of these issues to LSF and was rewarded with excellent knowledge and experience helping others like myself work back to a strong, flexible body. While I don't always love it, every instructor has been on me for positioning and form, which is key to not getting reinjured. As a pilates newbie, it's been helpful and I do not exaggerate when I say that I have been mostly pain-free since starting. My only struggle is with signing up for classes. Because they fill up very quickly, it is hard to budget because you need to sign up for a lot of classes in advance, which means you have to pay for a lot of classes at once. (They're certainly worth it and priced fairly.) I have had success with the waiting list, however, and there was only one time I did not get into the class. The silver lining of all this is that clearly people think highly of the classes/instructors and want to get in! I also appreciate that the owner/staff "hear" clients and try to make class policy changes that are sensible and not just penal. It's not easy running a small fitness business, so just them being there as a resource is terrific. They play great music, everyone is super friendly and down-to-earth, and the studio is cute. Thrilled to be an LSF'r and look forward to a pain-free spring and summer unlike last year! Thanks, LSF!

There are other places in the area where you'll get much better service, won't rip you off, and you'll find someone who is more interested than just what you're paying. I was drawn in by the website. It says you'll get personal attention from the owner, Bonnie, who has years of experience. When I called in, she was short on the phone, but I set up time anyway. A single session is $85, and she tried to talk me into doing the $800 ten pack. Thank God I didn't! On the day of my appointment she was running late so I had to wait for almost 20 minutes before she could see me. She asked me some about my background and what I wanted to focus on, and then launched right into it. When I told her I was uncomfortable with some of what she was having me doing, I caught her rolling her eyes at me. Although she had been 20 minutes late, she stopped our appointment right on time. When I mentioned this to her, she told me she had another client waiting for her. It's clear that the only thing she's interested in is making money. Go somewhere else. Save your time, and your money.

We started with understanding my baseline during my initial free appointment.

Though I was challenged and pushing my body, Bonnie was there right with me to ensure I was doing the technique correctly. Each session is different and unique.

I was really torn about YogaLife Institute. Initially, I loved it because of the studio's…read morelocation: it's located halfway between work and home, i.e., coming here during the evening rush hour was a great way to hack my commute. After 90 days of visiting this studio regularly, I decided that this wasn't the place for me. It was a tough choice. I slept on it for many weeks. See below for cons and pros. Cons...let's get the poopy stuff out of the way first --Steep pricing; I chose the monthly unlimited for $145. Classes are not cheap here, but neither is the quality of instructors. It's the age old conundrum of you get what you pay for. --Very cliquey: The other clientele do not tend to be overtly friendly to newcomers. This studio also attracts some very experienced, intense yogis. Sometimes these folks are a lil too intense a.k.a. they take themselves a little too seriously. This might just be a me thing though; I need a studio where the emphasis is more on human connection and joy than on entering a contest of wills to see who can breathe the loudest and be the most detached. --Limited access to instructors: the instructors typically enter the studio right before class and beat feet immediately after Savasana wraps, which makes it hard to build a rapport with these amazing instructors and, above all, who doesn't want to build a rapport with one's yoga instructor? --Awkward encounter: Speaking of Savasana, I inadvertently walked in on a class that was running a little bit late. Totally accidental but so not a huge deal as I was being pin-drop quiet. The instructor at the other end of the room emphatically waved her arms at me -- I suppose the equivalent of yelling with hands -- and gestured very demonstratively towards the door. I slinked out of the room. The lady apologized later, but she totally over-reacted. Her arm waving made more noise than did my footsteps. And besides, I exit and enter the studio at least once during each class to pee. Sometimes even during Savasana. I never get waved away. Probably because I'm being visibly respectful and audibly noiseless. Not sure why this particular instructor was so offended. --I wish the studio floors were a little cleaner, but by no means were they disgusting. Pros...and there are many! --Instruction: These instructors give amazing instruction. I went to a variety of classes, and I was always blown away by how methodical, detail oriented, and knowledgeable these instructors are. A few of these instructors embrace a more spiritual mindset rather than physical exertion. I really enjoyed the spiritual overtures. It made for a more connected, joyful practice. I loved whenever the instructors would give a brief summary of a passage from the owner's book. Put good vibes in the air. --The owner: The owner is exceedingly friendly and exceedingly accessible. I wish the many knowledgeable instructors at YogaLife would take a page from his book since they read from it so frequently -- especially the oddly aloof cadre of students who are working towards certification. --The receptionist: One of the receptionists -- a younger woman -- was always super welcoming, warm, and extremely pleasant. I loved interacting with her! She has a very inclusive mindset, which I found very inviting. I found many of the other receptionists to be polite and courteous as well. --Variety of classes: This facility boasts two massive studios in which many different offerings are available throughout any given day. Variety of levels offered here is also a huge plus. --Location Location Location: Conveniently located off of major thoroughfares. --Peaceful environment: Although located off of major thoroughfares, both studios are calm, peaceful, and conducive to relaxation. --This studio offers really neat seminars. I never attended any due to scheduling conflicts, but I was intrigued nonetheless! --Amenities: There are massage therapists, acupuncturists, and therapists/social workers who meet with clientele on-site, which is dope AF! I never had a chance to use any of these services, so I can't speak to the quality. I've also never seen most of these services collocated with a yoga studio, but this combo makes perfect sense!
