Thankful for the Yoga Place, not only have they helped me through several health issues, but they have taught me techniques for relaxation and self control during trauma, the unexpected and negative challenges that life brings. Since I began attending, I can get better sleep, live a more positive lifestyle and handle relationships with better quality. Blessed by Suzanne and the others that helped me get off some medications and get on board with positive energy for a better outcome in my life.

I have Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Muscular Dystrophy (CMT). However, through the Yoga Place, I have gained a better quality of life and stay healthier despite the challenges life brings. I AM BLESSED

The Yoga Place has changed my life. Every class I've taken so far has been calming, fun and completely accessible. I have been out of practice for more than a few years, but am amazed at how quickly my muscle memory has come back. Being a bigger girl, I expected the awkwardness and stares that become synonymous with taking any kind of fitness class, but I have not once felt uncomfortable taking any classes here.

The instructors are encouraging and want what's best for you and your body at all times. They modify positions for those with limited mobility and offer an insane variety of classes for every person. I have never been happier with a yoga studio or yoga instructors. I am so glad I found The Yoga Place.
