889 Yonge is really an Oasis for yoga and spa fans alike!
I went on a Monday night a FREE first class! Yes it is really free! No one trying to sell me any packages... The receptionists was so nice showing me where the rooms were and offer me sandals to walk around.
They have 2 practice rooms. I was attending a restorative class and the room is quite spacious with all the props set up in a nice mahagony cabinet. There are free yoga mats, free towels, free mat cleaner spray to use!
I have to tell you this place is popular! The class is packed! I love my restorative class! The instructor and the assistants came around and adjust everyone and make sure we have the proper alignment. There are bolsters, blankets, strips and my favourite EYE PILLOWS! The lighting is soft, that make the class so relaxing!
The waiting area is really nice too.. with hot tea, water and magazines you free to enjoy while you wait for the class.
They also has excellent spa products to use in the washroom/change room! I love the smell of spa! and all the hand creams and soap...
BTW, they no longer provide free yoga mats starting April 2010. So bring your own or rent one from them for $2.00.
