text: I have been attending the Shadyside studio for the past year I will give AY credit for always giving you a great work out You are going to sweat a lot and feel good about burning a bunch of calories However I do find all the classes even amongst all the different teachers very repetitive I assume this is because the owners Karen and Sean have taught the vast majority of their teachers through their own teacher training program There is not much creativity between the different classes it is the same poses over and over Since attending AY this year I feel like I could now teach there too It is that predictable nnThey also do not offer much guidance for more seasoned yogis who take modifications or arm balances I feel like I am showing off if I modify where at other studios I practice it is encouraged to try new poses It is an amazing feeling when you are able to grasp a new pose nnIn summary great place to get some cardio and decent yoga not great if you are trying to expand your practice I mix it up with other studios They do offer a wide assortment of class times which is convenientnnPS Would love suggestions of other studios you would recommend based on reading my review Namaste
