===== Yoga =====

Yoga as exercise, is a physical activity consisting mainly of postures, often connected by flowing sequences, sometimes accompanied by breathing exercises, and frequently ending with relaxation lying down or meditation ([[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoga_as_exercise|from wikipedia]]).

===== Reviews =====

Mindbody app has reviews of specific yoga teachers if you look up a specific yoga location, e.g. [[https://www.mindbodyonline.com/explore/locations/center-yoga|Center Yoga Mindbody page]].

However there isn't a way to look up a specific yoga instructor and reviews about their classes, as far as I know. So for now this page can be used to record yoga class experiences.

===== Emily Childers, Fierce Grace LES, 8:30am "The Fix" Class =====

  * Date: Mar 22, 2024
  * My level: Beginner-Intermediate
  * Pace: Medium-Fast
  * Difficulty of Moves: Beginner-Intermediate

My first hot yoga class in a while. It was great. Beautiful studio. A bit tight with all the students, but somehow didn't feel cramped. The [[https://www.fiercegrace.com/find-your-class/fix|fix class]] is a mix of everything.

===== Kacper Chudzik, Center Yoga, 7:30am "Morning Flow" Class =====

  * Date: Dec 18, 2023
  * My level: Beginner
  * Pace: Medium-Fast
  * Difficulty of Moves: Intermediate

Instructor was very good about suggesting adjustments. I enjoyed the class even though I have a different pace preference.

===== Hayley Antonelli, Center Yoga, 7:30am "Morning Flow" Class =====

  * Date: Dec 13, 2023
  * My level: Beginner
  * Pace: Medium
  * Difficulty of Moves: Beginner-Intermediate

I enjoyed this class quite a bit. It was a tad fast for me at some points, but the moves felt really good, and the rhythm of the pace was very consistent.

I also liked that the instructor's small dog was quietly napping next to her during the class.

The class was full, but I had a comfortable amount of room having secured a good spot next to the wall about 10 min before class.


===== Luis Dávila, St. Marks Yoga, 7:30am Class =====

  * Date: Sept 26, 2023
  * My level: Beginner
  * Pace: Medium-Fast
  * Difficulty of Moves: Intermediate 

Luis seemed very knowledgeable, experienced, and kind. He was in full control of the class and very present.

The pace was a bit quick for me, and the difficulty of moves was sometimes more than I could handle. I was hoping for an easier and slower paced class at 7:30am. Sort of a wake me up, stretch me out, get me ready for the day kind of thing. Several times I felt a bit overwhelmed with the instructor's direction, and ended up going into my child pose to recover.

I think it's a great class for a more experienced student.
