I've been wanting to write this review because I think I speak for many of Laura's long-time…read morestudents. I started attending Bikram Yoga back when Vern owned the studio--may he rest in peace. I came back in February 2026 and feel better and have lost 18 pounds! :) I recently read a negative review criticizing Laura for occasionally going off-topic during class and talking about real-life issues. My response is this: let's not be so quick to judge. None of us are perfect, and we're all real people dealing with real emotions and life experiences. When Laura says things like "monkey see, monkey do," I know exactly what she means. Many of us will see someone sit down or lie down during class and think, "Maybe I'll take a break too." I know I have. She's simply encouraging us to push through mental barriers and stay focused on our practice. What many people don't see is the amount of time and energy Laura invests in her students, especially new ones. I regularly see her stay after class to help students improve their poses, answer questions, and encourage them to reach their full potential. She is passionate about helping people succeed, not just in yoga but in life. What stands out to me most is how she connects with people on an emotional level. Many students come to her studio as a last resort after living with chronic pain, physical limitations, or frustration from not finding relief elsewhere. Laura genuinely cares about those people. She listens, encourages, and helps them believe that improvement is possible. That kind of dedication is rare. For me, Bikram Yoga has been incredibly healing, both physically and mentally. A lot of it is mindset, "you take what helps you, learn from it, and build on it". Don't let a few words that may have been taken out of context define Laura or her business. Life is what you make it, and I choose to view every class as a stepping stone toward a healthier, longer life. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I believe it's important to be kind and fair when sharing it. That's just my two cents. Laura has helped many people over the years, and I am grateful to be one of them.

I am sorry but I had an unexpected experience here. It was my 2nd Bikram Yoga class and Laura was…read morethe instructor. My first session with the other instructor went well. While Laura was instructing, I felt like she was talking about many unnecessary topics like how yoga is not their only profession and how it doesn't really pay well. I don't know how it's relevant to us? She also told a fellow student that I was copying her yoga moves and mentioned "monkey sees, monkey does" something like that. While I wasn't really copying anyone. She also mentioned that I was anxious during the session while I wasn't really anxious. I was just trying to put efforts. I don't understand how can someone "encourage " a student like that during their initial sessions. What's the issue even if someone is looking anxious? Yoga should be a pleasant experience for newcomers and not feel like walking on a tight rope. I thought it was just me but I found other 1 star reviews here concerning her on similar issues. I don't feel comfortable going back even though I paid for an entire month. Sorry but please treat your new students with extra care and encouragement. Good luck!

The first thing I noticed was that the air had a musty smell -- kind of like an old carpet -- which made the space feel a bit stuffy and dusty. It was also pretty warm inside. That said, the instructor, Amy, was lovely! The flow of the class was smooth and easy to follow, but still provided a solid workout. I really appreciated that Amy took the time to correct our form and offer hands-on guidance throughout the session. I learned a lot from the class and even picked up some great stretching techniques to use at home. My spine and back felt so relaxed afterward!

They actually take the time to know your name and greet you every single day. Whether I have a question about a session or just need a little motivation, they are always helpful, friendly, and genuinely kind. It's rare to find a team that makes you feel so seen and supported. Also the entire studio is spotlessly clean and has such a positive, inviting vibe. If you are on the fence, just do it! It has given me so much confidence in myself. 10/10!"

Sahara was my flexologist and WOW she absolutely loosened me up and unlocked things I didn't even realize were jammed up. The session was targeted, professional, and incredibly effective. She knew exactly where the tension was living and went straight to work. No fluff, just results. This was not some generic stretch session. This was a strategic reset for my muscles and mobility. Sahara explained what she was doing, checked in on pressure, and tailored everything to what my body actually needed. The impact was immediate. Better range of motion, less pain, and I felt lighter walking out the door. If you sit a lot, train hard, carry stress in your body, or just walk around feeling tight for no good reason, book with Sahara. This is real self care with real outcomes, not spa vibes. StretchLab just earned a permanent spot in my wellness routine. 10 out of 10. Will be back. Highly recommend.
