It reminded me of a mix of group fitness with a yoga/pilates feel and as someone who works out daily, I would rank it high challenge. Lots of use of props and weights. Definitely bring your own mat, towel, and water bottle. You will wear shoes during most classes, so you may want to pack a gym pair if you don't want to get your mat dirty-- they do also have a UV light sanitizer in the studio you can use on your mat after class. You're assigned a number spot on the floor, studio appears to hold 40-50 people. I'm not sure of their pricing, I attended using ClassPass. Housekeeping: there are two individual bathrooms and two red light infrared saunas on site too! Easy to find parking, studio is on the second level, easy to reach by middle or east set of stairs. Will definitely be going back!

Housed in a building that was once part of Kansas City's film row, I had a good feeling as I walked over Joan Crawford's and Jean Harlow's stars on the sidewalk leading into the building. (both screen queens spent their formative years in KC... wow, I have a way of fitting that into many reviews, don't I?) The studio is on the second floor, down past the check-in desk and hallway where you'll find the bathrooms and an alkaline water system. The studio itself is lovely, with bamboo floors and all kinds of wall hangings and statues around the room with Ganesh and other Hindu deities, which automatically makes me feel happy. The room has lots of windows, which allows for natural light and they like to keep the temperature to 80 degrees. No, this is NOT hot yoga (not a fan, personally), but you will sweat. Personally, I do like having windows open, letting in fresh air and fans, but I think I'm in the minority as I haven't found any studios that have this kind of thing. Most classes are taught by Kathleen and Wade, the husband and wife team that own Maya Yoga and both are approachable, strong instructors that will push you as far as you need to be pushed, while not going too far. It's noted on the schedules which classes are more for beginning students, by the way, so take note of that if you are a beginner. Having fallen out of regular practice, I mixed it up a bit to get back into it. I've taken a combination of classes, although not those in the morning or evening (ashtanga) which are really for those who have some background in yoga. I don't love ashtanga, but I did take two intro classes with Wade and he really does a great job of easing you into this challenging practice, for many of us, would take years to be able to do a lot of the asanas to their fullest benefit. Keep in mind, yoga is a practice and it's not about who can do this or that pose or asana. It's hard for most Westerners, as most of us are looking to be "good" at it (myself not excluded). What I've always found interesting is that you can be an absolute beginner but able to do some challenging poses with ease, like from when I started yoga many years ago, I found ankle to knee pose to be a piece of cake while a good portion of seasoned practitioners struggle with this. Meanwhile, I've still yet to be able to put my hands flat the floor when doing a forward bend. Kathleen's Tuesday midday Vinyasa class is perfect and definitely challenges me (hello splits! Still can't do those, either), while keeping me in good practice for those poses that come easier (Yay, backbends!). Today we had a really fantastic sub named Gwen and I need to see if she teaches other classes, because she was a blast- really down to earth, really helpful, but again, it's not gentle yoga (which she teaches as well, to seniors. How awesome is that?!) I come from a Vinyasa and Kundalini practice and ideally my practice combines both. Maya doesn't offer Kundalini, so I'll probably be going elsewhere for that, but I am really happy that I found a yoga studio that I love for Vinyasa!

The studio is warm however the instructors were not (which surprised me). Maybe it's because we had a groupon and are not regulars? who knows.. We positioned ourselves in the back row since we were not familiar with their sequencing or how they ran their classes. The instructor was pretty intense for a beginner class and was a bit too serious for me. Don't get me wrong it was a challenging class and she knows her stuff but the yoga vibe of love, peace and Namaste was not abundant as at other studios.

I am confused how this is legal? Never the less I will be cancelling my entire membership at this point. Scamming people like this is HORRIBLE.

I'd rather work out my d*** in a meat Cleaver than work out at Cleaver Family YMCA…read more OK that's a little extreme, but I didn't love it here. Because I didn't have the greatest time at the Cleaver YMCA. Firstly it's really hard to get to this part of town by road, because it's not really near any highways. Still I chose it, and decided to give it a try, even though I really like the gym at Olathe among others. Secondly the girl at the desk really liked me. Yes, in this case, it was a bad thing. She was very friendly and making a lot of chatter with me. I think perhaps she liked me a little bit too much, because she decided to go through the full process of figuring out if I was actually a YMCA member - even though she knew very well that I was. Only about 1 in 3 YMCAs actually go through this process, and when they do it takes between 1 and 5 minutes. However at the Cleaver YMCA, she took between 15 and 20 minutes because she kept messing up, taking as much time as possible, and remembering to have me sign a different part of the form, and thinking of more questions she wanted to ask me. I love friendly people but I have a tendency to be in a hurry. Here, I was, as usual so I didn't really appreciate it. Then there was the unfriendly person. An older man literally kicked me off a machine (the gym was nearly empty), which caused me to leave my workout gloves at the machine (I'd just taken them off ready for cardio). I never did remember that I left them there - until I was hours away from KC, on my way up to Des Moines. That was very disappointing. I called the Cleaver YMCA to ask about my gloves, and they said "we don't have them." Well, you do, but that's okay. Keep them. Another $10 down the drain. The gym itself was okay. Somewhere between a 3 and 4. A lot of the equipment was tailored to younger kids because this is definitely a family YMCA with the emphasis on family. I did get a pretty decent work out, but between the time that I was held up, the gloves, and the fact that is not a very extensive Y in terms of facilities, overall I cannot give more than a 3.

Barre3 is the most inclusive and welcoming workout space I've found in KC!…read more I was nervous to try Barre3 because I don't have a dance background or much flexibility, but after taking a few classes through ClassPass, I ended up signing up for a membership. The workouts are genuinely fun while still being challenging. Over the last three months, I've taken Strength, Signature, and Mindful Flow classes, and every instructor has done an excellent job programming workouts, offering modifications to make movements either more accessible or more challenging, and giving helpful form cues throughout class. I also appreciate that the class routines change monthly. It gives you enough time to become familiar with the movements, build confidence, and progressively increase weights before transitioning into something new. The studio itself is extremely clean, and they provide everything you need, including mats, weights, blocks, and bands. I especially appreciate that it's not a heated studio and that instructors are intentional about the room environment by adjusting fans, temperature, and lighting so classes stay comfortable and focused. Another thing I've appreciated is how responsive the studio has been to member demand and that they genuinely care about their members. In the few months I've been attending, they've continued adding class times and formats, including convenient 5:45 AM and 5:45 PM options that fit well into a work schedule.

They offer a student discount which is also a nice benefit! I've been consistently taking barre3 classes for about 6 months and I know I have gotten stronger. It's rare to have a strength class that is focused on lifting weights where the whole class is in sync with the instructor. I also love the signature classes which are more traditional barre. Other barre studios rely on traditional ballet position names, but barre3 is much more accessible in my opinion. The instructors are all wonderful, but I especially love taking classes with Meghan! The studio provides all of the equipment you need, including sweat towels and mats. In a world where the heated studio is taking over, it's nice to have a traditional studio format. The main reason I attend this studio is because they offer a 5:45 am class four days a week. The only thing I would change is that it would be nice to have a mindful flow (yoga focused) class offered later on a week day. Your first class is free, so you have nothing to lose by checking it out!!
