I don't write a lot of reviews but felt it was my obligation to let others in the community know…read moreabout my wonderful experience at Essential Evolution. Prior to my first lesson, I had never done Yoga before. I was waking up every night from a sore lower back, unable to continue playing basketball each weekend & struggling to keep up with my two-year old. Through Mariana's tutelage and commitment, now 6 months later, I find myself breezing through physical activities that used to be a challenge and never dealing with recurring back problems. Not only is Essential Evolution a wonderful facility but all the teachers make Yoga approachable as they assure the comfort of all their students. Thank you so much for everything!

You feel relaxed as soon as you step in through the doors. The space is uncluttered, intimate and welcoming. Mariana is a doll, she welcomed me and made me feel right at home. She made the effort to get to know me and asked if I had any special injuries or needs. The studio is clean and organized with all of the necessary elements. I will be back every time I'm in town to watch my daughter's team play.

I've practiced at a few CorePower Yoga locations, but Deerfield stands out as the absolute best…read more It's the one I keep coming back to--and for good reason. The studio is clean, welcoming, and well-run, with a truly supportive and motivating environment. Yoga Sculpt at Deerfield is on another level. It's the perfect combination of strength, cardio, and mindfulness--challenging and energizing in every session. What truly sets this studio apart are the instructors: *Emily Mysel is one of the best instructors out there--hands down. Her classes book up fast (even on the 4th of July, I had to carve out time to make it happen). She's both a powerhouse and a beast--in the best way. Her energy, focus, and spot-on playlists push you to keep going, especially when you feel like slowing down. You'll leave drenched and physically reset--even when the day throws something unexpected your way. That's the kind of impact she makes every time. * Okay--so clearly Emily is the best... but then there's Sandi L., who somehow also is the best‍ She's equally remarkable, bringing nonstop energy, clear instruction, and the kind of motivation that keeps the entire class locked in. She breaks down movement with purpose and creates a space that makes you actually want to show up and give it your all. Huge thank you to Sandi to transition from occasional drop-ins to a monthly membership, and it's been more than worth it. * Ally F. and Amy K. are next-level too--each bringing their own style and strength to Sculpt. I could go on, but I'll keep this review short: every instructor I've taken class with has been consistently strong, thoughtful, and effective. You'll leave feeling accomplished, every time. All of the instructors here bring something special, and that's why classes book up quickly. I'm sure I've missed a few incredible instructors along the way, but truly--you can't go wrong at this studio. If you're looking for a studio that delivers every time--this is the one!

The instructor was awesome and the class I went to at the time (Wednesday night at 630) all the other participants happened to be yoga instructors there too and were all very helpful if I wasn't sure about a pose. The studio is clean and very peaceful, even though it is on a somewhat busy street, you couldn't hear the outside traffic at all. I look forward to trying out another class as soon as I can fit it into my schedule.

Pam Udell has a company creating a new website for her, and the site should not be up and running…read moreyet. She was unaware that there were emails and messages waiting until last week. Once she became aware that I was out here, she texted (and twice emailed) me to apologize and make sure we connected. She was pretty upset to realize I had been waiting- and waiting, to make contact. I am going today for the first first time to practice with Pam Udell. She has been extremely kind and helpful working with me and my unpredictable schedule. I have heard and read that she is incredibly skilled and focused on the practice of yoga, as well as being highly trained and experienced. Her patience and flexibility (lol, get it?) have made my nerves disappear (Yes, I'm nervous; look her up, she's incredible!) and now there remains only excitement. She said if I'm running late, no problem, just text her or come the next day. Sure! Whenever is fine. What?? It's an appointment! Isn't the clock running? Nope. It's not about that. Four stars out of respect and appreciation for the process. I'll update later, simply because I absolutely anticipate the 5th star! **UPDATE Unbelievable. I learned so much from her that I called friends when I got home and told them a few of the tips she gave me! So much information. She is open and kind and so full of knowledge- and watching her move so fluidly to illustrate everything was simply a gift. It was a beautiful, inspiring, rejuvenating class. She also told me what temperature to look for (warm not hot, 88 max) and what type of classes to take until I can handle hot yoga and multiple classes. (I have issues. Like... I'm old and creaky.) More tweaks and tips than I learned in my last year of practicing. Really intuitive cues. In short, she is amazing on multiple levels. Everything made more sense to me by the time I left, almost 2 hours later. There really is a reason for everything. Wherever she is teaching, Go. Just go.

This review is for prenatal yoga with Cassie…read more I'm so glad I found this class! First of all studio is clean, calming and quiet. I feel that the class itself is a gift of so much more than just yoga. Cassie is so kind, gentle, and welcoming. What I enjoy the most though, is her knowledge in the areas of yoga, and the female body - especially in this delicate time. I learn something new in every class and always leave feeling refreshed, calmed, and further educated. I love the way we start most classes introducing ourselves and chatting a bit. All girls in this position have things they'd love to chat about w girls in a similar position, but sometimes need an ice breaker. This helps w that and just makes everyone feel more comfortable and welcome. And she offers hot tea if she's made some :) love it My only regret is that I didn't find her months ago.
