When I moved into the Ann Arbor area about a year ago, I was on the hunt for some low…read moreimpact+strengthening exercise. I'd never really enjoyed yoga before, but the wonderful team at aUM Yoga has made me a convert! They do primarily serve the University of Michigan community, so you need to be ok with taking class with college students...but I'm totally fine being one of the few older townies amongst the 20-somethings! The teachers are welcoming, I've never felt out of place (in fact, they were greeting me by name by my 2nd or 3rd class!). I also appreciate that the teachers are always receptive to feedback - and even willing to stay after class to help folks with any poses or answer questions. The general vibe is friendly, open, positive, supportive, and empowering - which is really what keeps me coming back. You feel good all around, not just physically, when you leave class. Jessie, Chelsea, Annella, and Helena are instructors I've taken from the most often, and they all have been very knowledgeable and wonderful to learn from. Each obviously has their own style (each is aspirational for me!), but they clearly are on the same page philosophically, share best practices, and genuinely enjoy each other which is lovely to see. They are all deeply invested in the practice of yoga as well as the students in their classes. I enjoy the music (teacher's choice but generally not stereotypically "yoga"-y good stuff with a beat), the temperature (warm but not hot), and the space (the studio does have permanently installed poles since it's a yoga & pole studio - but I kind of enjoy how they establish lines and spacing for our mats). They don't do hands-on corrections (which is actually COVID-friendly); their approach is to talk you step by step through the poses and flows as well as demonstrating themselves. Vinyasa 1 was a great place to start as a beginner - shorter, more straightforward flows (usually 2 that you run through 3 times), a bit slower (though interesting enough for more advanced yogis to enjoy and add challenge as they see fit). Vinyasa 2 is a step up because the flows are longer and a bit more complex, have even more room for adding challenge based on personal choice, and give the class opportunity to do one more run of the flow on your own time and pacing. They have a whole range of pole dancing classes as well, which I'm trying to screw up the courage to get into, and offer some interesting yoga teacher trainings and retreats. As someone with a dance background, I've really loved the interesting, varied flows that the teachers put together - I would actually describe some of them as similar to dance combinations! And as one who is not so fond of balances and inversions, they don't include a whole lot into the usual flows, and when they are, I don't feel pressure to take those on if I don't feel it. I've found that over the year, I've learned the poses and correct technique pretty organically, and I've DEFINITELY felt the changes in my body. After 2 babies, I feel like I'm starting to get some core muscles back! And the mental/emotional benefits have been great as well. They have nice new client offers - discounted 1st class or one month unlimited classes. I started with class packs but quickly shifted to unlimited classes - and have enjoyed dropping in whenever I have the time. Though you need to pre-register for classes, I've never had problems getting into classes I've been interested in. Perhaps this is due to a post-COVID slowdown, but this has been the case even as folks have been more out and about. So - clearly, I'm a fan of aUM Yoga! I'd highly recommend anyone - novices and experts, students and townies - check out this warm community.

I have been looking for a yoga studio here in Ann Arbor and attended a free yoga class here to see…read moreif I would like the studio/instruction/etc. I registered early to ensure I could get a spot, assuming they would cap registration. They did not, in fact, seem to cap registration. There were 63 people in a a medium-sized room, and mats were laid out by staff ahead of time in such an array that there was no room between mats for people to walk through. During the class, the heat was cranked up, and with 63 people in the room, it was incredibly hot. In a hot yoga class, I was surprised to see you could not walk out of the room safely. People were so close together that their sweat was hitting your face. My friend got kicked in the face and chest three times. You could not even spread your arms in a warrior two. The teacher clearly recognized it was wild because she kept making jokes about it, which helped but not that much because it felt unsafe. I tried to tell the owner when she added me on Facebook (which was wild in itself) and she just said that their usual classes are not that busy. I could not believe that the owner would be fine with having such an unsafe environment for the class- having a hot room with no escape with people unable to even reach for their water bottles because of the lack of room!!! It felt like a fire hazard, or at least a medical one. Still looking for a yoga studio if anyone knows of a good one around here.

I think month to month without discount it's around $50. Another reason why it's great - 3N1 is a locally owned business, not a chain. Co owners Eddie and Bonnye are there every day working the front desk, leading classes, and doing personal training. Feels good to know your money is staying in the community.

But what it has in comparison to the other two buildings does not make up for what it lacks. Just like the NCRB, there's AC all over the building! What I like about the IM building better than the NCRB is that the equipment isn't​ so close together, so it feels more spacious. The views from the windows are also more scenic than looking out of the NCRB. However, I think the IM building has less equipment than the other two recreation buildings. But I find that fewer​ people go to IM. I also dislike how IM does not have an indoor track, nor does it have any free lockers, or at least ones I could easily find.

I remember…read morebeing frustrated about having no choice but to work out at the CCRB when the IM building was closed. Fortunately, the upgrade was worth the wait! A previous reviewer described the gym as "state of the art." I think this is accurate. I was amazed when I first walked in soon after the renovation. It's bright and clean, and all of the equipment are updated. I like the open floor plan of the main weight room, and I usually don't have to wait long for a bench or machine. There are plenty of benches in the free weight area and sufficient mirror space. The eight squat racks and three deadlift areas are beautiful. I use the room across from the racquetball courts pretty often, and it's usually well-kept. It offers everything from kettle balls to boxes to TRX cables. I also use the two cardio rooms sometimes. The one on the second floor has some lighter weights and machines as well as treadmills and ellipticals, and the one on the third floor has rowing machines, treadmills, and Stairmasters. A unique area of the building is the lounge between where you enter and the weight room. There are TVs, foosball tables, and even a desk attached to a treadmill. The only thing I'd change about this gym is the availability of lockers. There are only about six tall lockers, and usually they're all taken during busy times. Other than that, I love working out here! I choose this spot over the CCRB always.

Try the paddle board class or one-on-one with the Coach. Clocktower-CrossFit is the newest BOX to open in Chelsea - located behind the old Teddy Bear factory; led by head coach Steve Koski, former coach at HyperFit. The owners' group of Clocktower came together to create a new CrossFit community in greater Chelsea area. Box just opened June 1st and they have all been very welcoming and encouraging, even though I am no where near their level of fitness. The facility is outstanding. A lot of space, open air and nicely appointed. A strip of turf runs along the back of the Box for warm-ups, mobility work (stretching out) and field-athlete training. There is plenty of equipment for when the classes get larger. TRX bands for adapted pullups, pushups, etc. Great bathrooms with shower and plenty of space for all of it. The owners have so much experience in the practice of CrossFit; I appreciate their attention to details - like the overhead fans to keep the air moving, the water bottle fill station and the hair ties in the bathroom for when mine breaks. It's the little things sometimes. Coach Koski also has a degree in nutrition. I am very optimistic of my ability to implement the life-style changes to my eating habits, under his instruction. I am not a complete novice when it comes to a balanced diet, however, I don't have the expertise and am happy to have found a Box and Coach that can help guide me. Clocktower-CrossFit is the ultimate CrossFit community Box. I cannot praise it enough. Contact them for a free class, get a 10-visit punch card to try it out for a few weeks, join the beginner CHIME class at a smaller membership fee, or do the all inclusive. There are so many options.

Well, from a first time crossfit participant, well, CHIME participant, I can say that this place rocks. I have done other, 'similar' classes, even taught a few, but this place is defined by more than their equipment and facility- it is defined by its people and its atmosphere. From day one, yes, you will see that the gym itself is immaculate, but it is the welcoming people that make up Clocktower Crossfit that make the difference. The head coach, Steve Koski, has a deep knowledge, both practical and academic, that allows him the expertise of coaching in proper movement to avoid injury- very important.
