I just relocated to Scottsdale from Southern california where I had been an avid member of Corepower yoga for years. I was very scared that I would never find a studio out here that I loved as much as CP.... Enter Sumits. I really do enjoy this studio a lot and for different reasons than I loved my old studio.
Even with years of hot power yoga experience, I found their proprietary class refreshing, engaging, and very challenging. The room is hotter than I was used to but I have adapted and now love it. What I love most about the mcDowell studio is the addition of the power flow classes in the second studio. These add the variety and flexibility to my workout that i crave. My only suggestion would be that there are more of these classes offered especially on weekday afternoons and evenings.
Every instructor I have had has been great, especially Lynn, her class is amazing. The entire studio has an incredibly warm and welcoming vibe. The only reason I put 4 stars instead of 5 is for two recommendations: more power flow classes offered and the unfortunately the bathroom/changing area is very small and crowded after a class.....a small draw back. But all things yoga considered, this place is fabulous.
