| - This place was a bit tricky to find since it's in a complex that kinda looks like townhouses. Once there though, just go down the stairs.
The entranceway was a bundle of shoes and coats. It's a rather small studio with a different... er... style that other studios I've seen, since I'm used to seeing hardwood floors and big open spaces.
As mentioned by another reviewer, there's only a single storage-type room to change in, one at a time. I think there's also only a tiny bathroom that's outside the reception area, by the shoes and coats.
Aside from the studio, the class was great! The teacher def seemed experienced, especially at teaching beginners (there were a bunch of new students behind me in the class). The class size was quite small (I think only around 10 people), which was good since the long, narrow room looks like it would feel cramped otherwise. I attended the hot hatha class, which focused more on breathing on meditation than, say, power yoga.
There also seems to be a nice sense of community there. The staff was nice and the students were too - I was initially hesitant to join in their conversations, but they were really friendly people.
Overall, a good experience for the stuff within their control :)
Unfortunately, the people upstairs (or in the reception area, couldn't really tell) kept talking and making lots of noise, which kinda disrupted the peace of the class, so while I know it's not the studio's fault, I like to consider an overall feeling of peace and well-being during my yoga practice, so I'm unsure if I will be returning anytime soon.
