I was in a serious bout of depression and was doing some serious soul searching. Carol is the most amazing yogi I've ever had the pleasure of learning from. There is no embarrassment, or self-doubt. She makes all efforts to give modifications and inject humor and silliness to make you feel at ease. The entire team of teachers there are highly skilled, I've taken class from all of them and have never left disappointed. I owe a lot to this community, they helped save my mental health. I am now taking Carol's teacher training and it is life changing. Highly recommend this studio for anyone from any skill level.

Movement Arts has experienced, well qualified instructors who seem to constantly be working to…read moreimprove their own practices. The environment is comfortable and scrupulously clean - which is a big thing for me at any kind of gym or studio! I've been taking PIlates - they offer mat Pilates, which is a serious workout - YogaTone, a dance / Yoga fusion developed by the owner, Kara Keating, and Flow Yoga, which is a series of continuous movements that build strength and flexibility. My wife and I have both been taking classes at Movement Arts for around three years. Some reasons why, aside from good teachers and a super clean, comfortable environment, are: I like that the instructors - even in the group classes - take the time to work with individual students, helping us with our form and approach. The wide variety of classes and the fact that they offer classes in the morning, afternoon and early evenings most day makes it very convenient to attend the classes we want. The studio also offers regular yoga excursions - at reasonable prices - to places like Maui, Costa Rica and other spots - all in search of the perfect Downward Dog! :) Finally, I appreciate the community feel of Movement Arts - it is definitely not like a gym, where you go to work out and then - you're gone. This is the kind of place that I hope will help keep us stronger, more flexible, health(ier) and happier for many years.
