I joined Lindsay G for a group barre class on Friday for her blogging group "Find Where You Fit,"…read moreit was so much fun. I got out of my comfort zone maybe most of the time during the whole 60 minutes of barre. Lindsay G thank you so much for putting this event together. Both you and Allison rocked this class. Allison was our instructor and really good one. For a person with very little barre experience she made me feel super comfortable learning it with the small movements to the weights and barre itself. Everything Allison did she talked you through in the class. You can tell Allison had a lot of experience in this and when I talked to her after the class I learned she used to teach barre in Chicago and moved her later to teach at Otterbein and Bexley Yoga. She made the class so much fun too, like she let us pick out out music which was 90's themed and everything just feel into place from there. Lindsay also got us these cute pair of barre socks too. We all modeled them at the end with our barre poses. I would totally come back here again and not just take barre but also try the yoga classes to help with my anxiety and stress. I know a lot of my friends from Bexley come here and rave about other instructors too, so I'll be back soon! Thanks again Lindsay and Allison for a great time!

During my recent trip to Columbus I was excited to try out a yoga studio in a new neighborhood. And…read morestaying at Bexley B+B just a few steps away, Bexley Yoga seemed like a solid location for an early morning class. The Yay: -Easy online registration -Low key, casual studio with water station and restroom off to the side -Nice playlist during my flow class -Clear instruction -Free mat rental -Super convenient to where I was staying in Bexley The Meh: -$18 for a drop in class reads on the spendy side to me, even with the free mat usage -I take a practice a fair amount of hot (flow) yoga, and this flow class seemed super fast. As in I didn't have very much time at all to stretch or settle into any pose in particular. It felt rushed throughout, with the exception of shavasana. I'd definitely try Bexley Yoga again next time I'm in the neighborhood to hopefully get a better picture of their practices.

I took a beginner class yesterday (02/18) through class pass and thoroughly enjoyed the self pace…read morenature of the class. I'm not a yoga expert but I've been doing it for many years and def felt a profound difference in my "workout" / practice when you're not relying on an instructor to guide you through every pose and tell you when to inhale-exhale all the time. In this set up, the instructor gives you the instructions before hand and you get to take your time performing the poses and coordinating the breath. Obviously you're allowed to ask questions :). The idea is to build your own practice that you can take with you outside of class with reconnecting every few days to advance / improve your practice. From my understanding, the focus is on repetition and mindfulness; with the memory aspect and strong sense of community, it really is a great place. Serious suggestion: I would have loved more of an explanation on the significance of the poses and which muscles to actually recruit to enable me to do the poses better. Would I return and recommend..? Yes absolutely!!

I don't live in Bexley but I'm often met with friendly classmates and the teachers know my name. Parking is easy to find and the studio is clean, with ample sanitizers around. Often they have free protein bars for grabs... BONUS. The owner is friendly and has been responsive to issues I've had with scheduling. I do think a few upgrades would go a long way. For one, there is not enough equipment for each member in some of the fuller classes - there seems to be a shortage of 3lb and 4lbs weights. I'd LOVEEE new equipment to help switch up the variety of the class - like ankle weights, pilate rings or weighted balls. Just a thought. There's only so much you can do with body weight, a ball and 5 lb or less weights in a barre class. Most of the teachers are creative and great at adding variety but other times it feels a bit stale. I also noticed in the classpass app its says free towels and water. There isn't water or towels. There's a brita filter water pitcher in their back area inside of a fridge but I'm not sure if it's open to the public. I've been dying of thirst before and asked about water and was told to grab a glass from the cabinet and use that brita - I felt like I was at a friend's house asking an adult for a drink, lol. Anyway, a water cooler would be wonderful. A girls gotta stay hydrated to be well! Thank you Be Well for fostering a nice, friendly environment and having some of the best barre teachers around!
