If you use this gym and you leave your shoes there make sure they are marked with your name or something so they are less likely to be taken....I hope!

Tory, Jen, and Zenaib have each done it masterfully! Been to other studios, but none combine quality, cleanliness, community commitment, inexpensive classes, and easy access better than Blackbird. Lastly, for an extra special butt kicking, try paddleboard yoga. Tory is Ithaca's first and only instructor. It's a serious challenge, but awesome to plunk in the water when you get hot.

There's truly nothing better than a yoga class at Sky and taking in that gorgeous view of the lake, no matter the season. I came to Sky 3 years ago petrified that I'd make a total embarrassment of myself as I had never attempted yoga, but they were so helpful and welcoming that I instantly fell in love with yoga, and despite all of the studios around the country I've now frequented, Sky will always be my favorite and hold a special place in my heart. Their instructors are absolutely amazing; Courtney weaves her passion and love for the business into every thing she does, it's palpable. The community of classmates are always so friendly and warm; it's the closest thing I presently have to my own little community and I always look forward to connecting with them. There's always something new and fresh to look forward to in addition to the perfect weekly schedule which is created to have something for everyone of any skill level. Presently during COVID they have a really great system in place for streaming, special classes and more, though I'll always prefer the in-studio experience (which is open and very clean!) I can't wait until Covid passes and we can go back to the full classes full of love and light, I look forward to the little things they do to make every class special (essential oils, lighting, amazing music). Sky is so incredible that they're worth a special trip to Skaneateles, but especially if you're in the area, on vacation, or on the lake, stop in for a soul-changing experience!

It's in a convenient location for people living near the Commons, has a decent number of cardio and weight machines, and offers yoga and dance classes that are included in the price of membership. Student memberships are available for $178 a semester or $326 for two semesters. I think they are expanding the gym once Cinemapolis moves into its new space, but I'm not sure when that might happen. I like the relaxed environment and most of all the convenient location. I'm so glad I don't have to schlep up to campus or drive somewhere to go to the gym. I wish they were open later than 9:00 on weeknights and 6:00 on Saturdays and Sundays, but they do open wicked early in the morning.

When we've been here there has typically only been one person working, but it's never been a big deal because all the staff does is prepare the cheese tasting and then there is seating outside and upstairs. The ambiance is fine... it's never been too busy or loud when we've been here. Definitely a cool spot to stop if you like goats and goat cheese!

Overall, I liked the studio and found the class times to be convenient for my schedule. The instructors were great about showing modifications, both easier and more challenging, which I found productive to my own progress. Instructors were really great about answering questions after class (e.g., pigeon pose always cuts off my leg circulation for some reason, despite being hyperflexible, and they helped me find an alternative). I really wanted to love this place, but the main reason I did not go back is because most of their classes are hot yoga, which I really don't like. Personally, the heat does nothing for me besides drench my clothes ~completely~ in sweat (required a towel on my fabric car seats!) and, frankly, has no science to prove any benefits anyway. Plus, in addition to being annoying, it is also a hazard. I tried a lot of things to make the experience less slippery on my mat and nothing seemed to work. I just didn't think it was worth the struggle of trying not to slip and fall in basic poses, which I would not have to waste my time thinking about (and ultimately distracting me from the meditative experience) in a normal class. I also took an aerial yoga class, which was fun to try, but I personally found it pretty uncomfortable (cutting off circulation, digging into my legs despite being pretty thin figured). Just wasn't for me. If you don't mind hot yoga, you'll probably love this place. But if you do, you should choose a different studio (which is honestly hard to find in this area, as many places are hot yoga only).
