Tracy is a nice person and her husband seems like a good guy, but this studio is built for a very…read morespecific type of clientele, and I am not it. To provide some baseline context: I already run a high-friction, highly disciplined physical routine. I train 6x a week (push/leg/dynamic movement/pull/leg/dynamic movement), do Zone 2 cardio 5x a week, and Zone 5 cardio 1x a week. I'm 38 and can still run a 6-minute mile. On top of that, I work three jobs. I do not have issues with "malware" hijacking my system, I have plenty of energy, and I actively seek out the hard work. (As an aside, this is a bad analogy anyway because our biological systems are not based on restrictive, narrow-scope Von Neumann architecture; they operate much closer to an analog computer system). Nevertheless, the core point is that analogy is inherently flawed because it is trying to force a problem to be something it wasn't, and then using a solution for it that fundamentally doesn't work. I recently became interested in the physical concept of emptiness and wanted to deepen my understanding of it to uncover some spiritual blind spots. I thought yoga would be a natural pivot. I was wrong. Through attempting to do yoga here, I concluded that this is no longer what I want to do. But I also realized that more thoughts and more ideas are not bad--philosophy is not bad. Being lost is just a transitive state. If you keep going, keep reflecting, anchor yourself correctly, and stay humble, you will derive a lot of meaningful wisdom from it. Yoga itself is, and always was, a giant philosophical framework long before it was adapted into the modern version with a physical side. My point is that the philosophical side absolutely has its purpose, because everything we do comes from our thoughts. Pros: --- - She did help me improve some shoulder mobility. - The studio itself is nice, well-maintained, and has a very casual, relaxing atmosphere (which is a pro for most people, even if it wasn't the intensity I was looking for). - She has years of experience with yoga and clearly carries weight and presence in her reputation. - I appreciate the "keep your ego at the door" sign on the front porch. Cons: --- - She treated me like I lacked the willingness to put in the work (my physical receipts of silent dedication are linked below). I took great offense to this, but I had to swallow it and concede multiple times. - Refused to even look at my handstand. When I asked for help analyzing my structural weaknesses, she bypassed it entirely and pivoted to teaching a headstand (which is not a mechanical prerequisite for a handstand). It was a major red flag--it felt like she either lacked the technical experience to coach it or simply assumed I wasn't physically capable of it. - She had absolutely no clue what an L-sit is, which is a massive mechanical blind spot for anyone teaching bodyweight leverage. - Our learning styles fundamentally didn't align. Even though the environment is casual, the instruction itself felt like a one-way street. There was very little room for actual mechanical dialogue, feedback, or collaboration on my specific goals--you are just expected to follow her script. - The biggest deal-breaker of all: The background music (while soft) and her overarching philosophy highlighted a fundamental mismatch. I prefer to focus in silence on how my body internally reacts to a position--this is the raw physical feedback I use to reflect on later. She focuses heavily on breath work. To me, that kind of breath work is an active, proactive/reactive process; it completely misses the true, passive "emptiness" (Yin) I was looking to experience. - I also had to navigate and verbally de-escalate interactions with her overly enthusiastic husband. - To top it off, she attempted a tone-deaf upsell for another session without realizing our session had essentially failed. If you are someone with absolutely zero physical background looking for basic stretching, or just a tourist seeking generic pain relief in a highly curated, relaxing environment, this studio will probably work for you. But if you are looking to explore true emptiness, get away from the commercial distractions, and you already operate at a high level of physical integrity, look elsewhere--or at the very least, proceed with caution. To be fully transparent, here is my baseline (I have nothing to hide and am just sharing the receipts of my experience): YouTube handle: humble_integrity Strava Athlete: 95248427 Website: rbtlong (commerce)

I've gone to three yoga sessions at The Camp with Tracy and DJ Crisanto, and each time has been a…read moregreat experience. Tracy is an outstanding instructor. Every session introduces something new, which keeps the classes engaging and fun. I've practiced yoga for a few years, and one thing that really stands out is there is always a new stretch or pose. She creates a welcoming environment and encourages everyone to work at their own pace while still challenging themselves. I always leave class feeling better than when I arrived. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, encouraging, and engaging yoga instructor, I highly recommend checking out Tracy's classes at Explore Yoga.

I've tried everything from conventional treatments (drugs) to various chiropractors and physical therapy/rehab centers. All have offered some relief but none to the extent of Shuriu's deep, non-invasive, Thai Yoga technique.........that won't turn me into some drug-dependent zombie or send me into bankruptcy. I've been under her care on a consistent basis for no more than 6 months and the way my injuries have responded is nothing short of amazing.

It's pretty incredible how well she understands the body and how we can make real change in our physical patterns. The change she had helped me to make has relived my lower back pain and other alignment issues. She has a way of observing the body and seeing what it tends to do and what its patterns are, from there she explains it to you and gives specific exercises to help fix the issue. She's detailed when going through each exercise and she has you repeat it on your own while she watches to be sure you're doing it correctly. This process helps the body learn the pattern of movement and makes it easy to practice it. The best part is when you feel your body having made real change. I can't give her any less than five stars - wish there was an option for ten!

While it may look easy, you will get a great workout and the instruction, the care, making sure you are in the right position to do it correctly and prevent injury is fantastic. The workouts are diverse enough that I don't get bored and I feel great.

Before turning 51, I had been feeling sluggish, getting headaches and not fitting my clothes anymore. My gynecologist confirmed I was in peri menopause and that my weight gain was part of the package. She told me to workout more and eat less, but I was already working out 6x a week! I desperately needed direction for my food and my workouts. This was the first time working with an online trainer/training program, but Aftann made her meal/workout plans easy to follow. Yes, it was work on my part to make sure I was eating the right things and doing right the workouts. But once I was feeling better, more energized and seeing results, that gave me more motivation to keep going! Working out wasn't really my problem; if anything I wasn't resting enough! That saying "Abs are made in the kitchen" is VERY true. You can workout all day but if your food isn't on track, you won't lose weight/fat. I've learned that at the end of the day, it's about being mindful of what I ate and balancing it out. If I get side tracked I don't need to completely derail myself, give up and let myself spiral out of control. Now that I've lost the weight the right way, knowing what/how much I should be eating on a daily, I feel better about my approach to food. Thank you, Aftann!!l If you're on the fence about working with Aftann, JUST DO IT!! You won't regret it!

I recently gained a lot of weight and her guidance and expertise along with her kind and cheerful demeanor is just what I needed. She has a bright energy, reminding me to be patient with myself and to love my body during this transformation, but also to put in the hard work! Her extensive knowledge and inspiring attitude makes me excited to keep working out with her. I've seen many trainers over the years and she is by far the best! Her strong body is exceptional and it keeps me motivated to stay on track. She holds me accountable and inspires me to be my best self. It is clear that she truly cares about her clients, checking in to make sure I am sticking to my goals and holds me accountable even on the days when I don't see her! During our training sessions she provides excellent modeling, explains the importance of proper form and gives constant reminders and modifications for improvements. She varies up our routines and seems to know exactly what my body needs during each session. I always leave her feeling fabulous and energized. Kandace has an exquisitely beautiful disposition and a positive, growth mindset. I am so thankful I'm training with a high-quality fitness professional like her, she clearly knows what she is doing and she makes training fun and exciting!

I met G in early October when I responded to a post she made on next-door that spoke directly to me…read morein that exact moment. Entering that phase in a early 50 year-old woman's life, I was freaking out over having gained 10 pounds in less than six months with no end in sight of the scale continuing to go up. I had no idea what was happening, I had no control over the situation, I felt I was already eating as helpful as possible, I was very active playing tennis walking just taking care of my family. And all I could see was. a future where I ended up like my mom. so when her post came across next-door, I responded immediately and she got back to me immediately. We set up a consultation which was informative, and I immediately felt very confident in her, her specialty with women in my exact situation, her focus on not only strength training in increasing muscle mass increasing bone density, but also reviewing the nutritional inputs and converting how I think and have thought for very many years about what is healthy, eating, to be more macro based, and a totally different way than I feel we've been taught for years. I think one of the first rules she taught me was if you look at the calories of a serving and you look at the protein grams, add a 0 to the grams of protein and if it's not equal or higher than the calorie count, then it is not considered a high protein food. That was huge for me to hear, and a tool I could immediately use and I immediately was able to take that little piece of knowledge and put it into practice and totally changed the dynamic of how much protein I was eating and how to choose higher protein foods. She was able to keep my options simple enough for me to follow, while also providing me with just enough variety and wiggle room to allow me to maintain my comfort zone, while also making small adjustments here and there. For instance, I've kept my morning latte, but I changed the quantity of milk and the type of milk I'm using. And I have kids and a family to feed so I don't have all the time in the world to make special meals and weigh everything. So she was able to work with me to find the changes I could implement that would have the highest impact. And also take baby steps. Now for the good stuff, the workouts. Oh my FG. The workouts are killer. I started with one workout a week for one hour, and even though I had been doing a 20 minute strength training program for about a year before I met G, this was a completely different experience. This is not your weight training, strength training program from the 90s or early 2000s. This is a whole other type of beast. She may not make you barf, but she will make you cry! Lol ... in a good way. But everything is done very safely, she's very very knowledgeable in terms of form and spots you and or the equipment at all times. This is not a trainer who's on their phone while you're pushing out reps. She is 100% focused on you and what you're doing, making small form adjustments, counting down, words of encouragement, and a little lift here and there as required! The gym is also pretty great. If you go after 9:30 and I would assume before five, the place is practically empty. It's for personal trainers only, so there's always equipment and the quality is fantastic. Within two months, the weight started dropping, and my body started changing before my very eyes. I was comfortable wearing a bikini again over the Christmas holidays! And of course, as most people do, over the Christmas holidays I also ate a little bit more freely than I had been doing, but I kept my breakfasts very disciplined, and continued to go on walks, but for 2 1/2 weeks did not do any strength training., And I returned home weighing exactly the same amount as I did when I had left. I guess that's the power of muscle burning fat. So, being a glutton for punishment (but also because I wanted to charge up my results) I decided to add a second day to my workout plan. It is also easier too. One work out a week is so painful but 2 your body is ready for it and she can space out all the hard stuff a little more. Since then, I broke through my weight plateau and hit my first goal. Dropping those 10 lbs. And my strength has increased markedly, and my body has changed a lot! I can wear pants that I had given up on but kept anyway. I still have maybe 5 pounds to go to be at my ultimate goal weight. I've also lost about 5% points of body fat which is huge! And my physical transformation is huge. It's not even about weight now. It's about rebuilding muscle and maintaining a healthy and strong body as I head into the next phase of life! I highly highly recommend any woman who is in her early 40s mid 40s late 40s early 50s whatever, get your ass in gear girl and get moving and get lifting - you can control what is going on with your body you just need a coach, a mentor, a friend, and G is all of these things.

Because I'd been training for years, I'd wanted to be able to guide myself without outside help, but I kept hitting the same obstacles year after year. I decided to give coaching a try. I was also scared of being yelled at by the stereotypically rigid fitness coaches. I shut down when I'm constantly criticized, so I've been cautious about seeking more thorough advice. I'm happy to say that Glayol exceeded my expectations by conducting very thorough reviews on my lifestyle and goals, providing lots of positive reinforcement and encouragement, and educating me on the process throughout it all. I've been working remotely with Glayol on the starter plan for about 4 months. Before working with her, I was trying to do too many things at once and was kind of half good at all of them. I felt overwhelmed by online advice and struggled with consistency, focus, and mindset blocks like perfectionism and an all-or-nothing attitude that held me back. Glayol helped me simplify everything and gave me clear direction with an objective way to track whether I was improving, instead of just guessing. She tracks my progress in the gym and nutrition for me and answers all my questions, so I don't have to worry or get overwhelmed by the numbers. I also really like the coaching app, which is convenient and probably the best fitness app I've tried (MyFitnessPal pales in comparison). One of the biggest changes has been with my eating habits, I binge a lot less now and have learned practical ways to eat well even when traveling or in challenging situations. Also, I didn't even realize I was bloated almost every single day until I started implementing Glayol's nutrition guidance and began experiencing life without constant bloating. Glayol helped me work through mental blocks I didn't realize were holding me back, and that has made a huge difference in my confidence and motivation. For the first time, I feel like I'm building sustainable habits, gaining strength, and rebuilding trust with my body. The difference has been huge and so positive in such a short time. I'd highly recommend working with Glayol if you're feeling frustrated and overwhelmed in your fitness journey.
