I picked up a free YogaSix class pass when they visited my gym and talked to Kelsey at the time. She was super friendly and recommended the Restore class. She also helped me get signed up and when I walked into YogaSix, she remembered my name. The staff members are all very friendly and welcoming.

While I haven’t gone to a yoga class in a few years, I used to practice yoga regularly. YogaSix was much nicer than my old yoga studio. It had a spa-like feel. The lobby is small but it has a small retail section with clothes, yoga bags, and other yoga accessories. They have a machine to refill your water bottles, cubbies for your shoes, and lockers (with built-in locks) in the bathroom. The bathroom smelled nice.

I believe there’s only one studio room. The room was kept hot and dimly lit. It was 90 degrees. The floor had mat markers which was a nice touch. One wall was mirrored. There’s a prop/equipment room in the back. Bring your own mat (they also have mats you can rent). They have blocks, straps, and weights. I forgot to bring a towel even though I really needed one.

The class was fine – a lot of stretching. It’s fine for people without any yoga experience. After the class, the students put their blocks and straps away. I was impressed by how everyone wiped their blocks off. There was a feeling of community and respect. They had cold towels waiting in the lobby.

A drop-in class is $30. They offer discounts if you buy a package of classes. If you park at a meter, they’ll even feed quarters in the meter for you. They sent me a text reminder about the class. Be sure to register for a class. I heard the evening classes are very popular.

I think the classes are too hot for me but I could see taking the on-demand classes at home. Parking isn’t that easy in the area.

5 out of 5 stars.
