| - studio 11 is the neighborhood studio for tremont. i've taken a few of the different classes offered here, and out of convenience and variety of classes you can take here, studio 11 gets my seal of approval.
all different levels of experience are welcomed. i started with the modern dance classes with megan on monday nights. she teaches a solid beginners or slower paced dance class for those curious. for those of you with a bit more experience, you can also take the other classes offered on tuesdays or saturdays. if your curiosity is provoked, you can also try one of the hip hop classes offered on thursdays. they are a lot of fun, using great music and making you think you could win any dance off in any of those tween dance flicks with julia styles. better yet- you are julia styles. only cooler. cuz you're you.
i've taken some of the yoga classes as well, both with denys and marcia. denys packs a lot of energy into the short lunch time yoga power hour. a bit cleansing meditation, a bit vinyasa style, your body is guided through each moment with a driving momentum leaving you energized and rejuvenated for the rest of your day. marcia's hatha class on thursday is great too- a relaxed, focused practice with an intensity and release through each posture. a great class.
there are still a bunch of other classes to take with an onslaught of other teachers, including tiiu, the studio owner, shanna, and a few others. if classes aren't your thing but you're still needing that release, i think they do cleanses, massages, and i think they occasionally do drum circles, too.
that's right, chach, drum circles.
the space itself is really great. really inviting, really warm, really peaceful. the upstairs studio is a great dance space. i haven't taken any classes downstairs yet, but from glances downstairs it seems along the same lines.
i love having studio 11 in the neighborhood. it offers a lot, and seems to change out schedules every so often for variety. try out one of the classes. i promise you won't be disappointed. and if you are, hug it out. on a tree.
