Namaste. The light that is in me, recognizes and honors the light that is in you. In the same way,…read morethe Sun that shines upon you, shines upon me. Together, we share a planet, a space, and a breath of life. The purpose of this review is to celebrate you; that is, you are one of the most complex machines on the face of the planet. This is nothing to be prideful about, because as complex as our conscious self is, it is still subject to the moving of our seasons, the rotations of our planets, and the blinking of distant stars. Every day is one where we can be intentional in our movements through IT. Will we be Good? Will we do what is good for our self? Will we strive for intentional growth into maturity in our communities? My spouse and I have popped in and out of this place over the past few years. We love the staff, the leaders, and the community. There is life and vibrancy here. There is acceptance and warmth here. Sure, that warmth may be a yoga studio with the heat turned up to HOT, but it will be a delightful time, to a machine of light. Every drop of sweet will remind you of how we all are but a drop in an ocean; that is, we are distinctly unique but inseparably interwoven. Then Rest. Take that yoga breath. Let the instructors remind you to soak up the day's provided light. Find rhythm, focus, and familiar friends, here. Namaste. The light that is in me, recognizes the light that is within these walls.

Great location, and superb classes. I'd first found out about Bent 9 Yoga from coming across one of…read moretheir hot yoga classes. It was actually my first time doing yoga. I didn't know any of the poses or positions either. But the way the classes went, I didn't need too really. The teacher explained everything very well, it wasn't fast paced so I could copy the moves, and they even went around checking and fixing our stances. Not only that, the locker rooms even have a place to freshen up after all that work!

I bought 20 classes to use within a year but immediately became pregnant and had complications that wouldn't allow me to work out. Paired with a difficult recovery I missed basically the entire year. I was given 2 months to take my classes which was entirely impossible for my family's schedule and 9 of my classes expired on me. If you know you can without a doubt use them, great. In extenuating circumstances you aren't met with much empathy and I was extremely disappointed.

I was referred to Yoga Reflections from a friend and have been attending the Tuesday/Thursday…read moremorning classes in Portage for a few weeks. As weird as it sounds, sometimes yoga is kind of stressful: tons of people in precarious poses, trying to keep their balance while still trying to track of the teacher's movements and directions. Joy's classes are the exact opposite. The atmosphere is super calm from the moment you walk in and everyone is friendly and welcoming. Joy leads a very smooth and calm practice. She's also great about suggesting modifications to meet your needs (such as an injury or isolated weakness). I like that every class is dedicated to a different part of the body and I walk out feeling challenged but relaxed. I highly recommend Yoga Reflections for beginners and regular practitioners!

Her classes are diverse from one to the next and never the same twice even within a given week. They can be sweet soft and introspective or conversely highly energetic and sweat producing. Véronique takes the group's pulse (herself included) explicitly and implicitly and then puts her heart and soul into what the day's attendees seem to her to need. Her instinct appears to be unerring! She holds 1.5hr sessions Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. I've had sessions from a couple of the other teachers at the studio and they are also great teachers.

I purchased a groupon for 3 pole dancing classes. I went to the Intro class first and had Julia as…read morean instructor. I LOVED how she started the class, made everyone forget about their outside worries and stresses, and make us look forward to what was ahead. The class was great (which is why I hesitate giving only 3 stars). From there I signed up for the Level 1 class knowing I would only go twice more. It was explained that we were to learn something new each time and build upon what we previously learned. The first class was great, and I learned a lot of ways to go down the pole. However, you had to sign up in advance for the class and there were 2 extra people, meaning 2 poles had 2 people on them. For a 1 hour class I didn't love the fact that I had to share a pole, kind of took away from the class in my opinion. Why sign up in advance if they're not going to cut the class at 10 for the 10 poles? (9 if you count the instructor's pole). The 3rd class I went to didn't really add anything more on the pole, but she opted to teach us wall dances. Again, this was a pole dancing class, so I wasn't soo excited about the wall. And the instructor was coming off of being sick and really made that known to us, quite a few times, and it was sort of distracting to the class. This one felt very forced and not as fun as the first two.

We were so excited and a little nervous at the idea of pole dancing. For the number one reason of…read morecourse: it takes some real strength to hold yourself. Luckily for us and hopefully those looking to see if this is worth it. We decided to try something new and just do it! It is totally worth it! The fun we had doing this was overflowing! We laughed, cheered each other on, and overcame. It took a few flops to get it right. But that's common when you are learning something new! I was very lucky to learn four different apparatuses in Aerial Yoga and some pole dancing moves! Coming to Flyfit is definitely a good choice! You just feel so empowered at the end of every class. It makes you want to come back and learn more. Which is exactly what happened to me. I can't wait to show off my new moves.
