I go to the Restorative Yin Yoga class on Sundays at 4pm at the Medford location. Before this, I have never done any kind of yoga classes prior. This is my first experience doing yoga. At first, I was intimidated because I wasn't familiar with the terminology, and wasn't flexible enough to get into some of the poses just yet (especially with the legs). But, Ruth is an exceptional yoga instructor. She took her time with me to ensure I was able to get into the poses or an alternate way to do the pose. She is so patient and her voice is like butter to listen to. She guides not only through the poses, but the meditative experience that Yin Yoga offers. Shes an exceptional teacher, and I wish my schedule permitted to catch more of her classes. I have been going for a few weeks now and already feel the difference in my body, mind and soul just from going once a week. I have more energy, my body is in less pain from my fibromyalgia, I feel healthier, I am less stressed, my anxiety is at bay, and I am sleeping better. I am extremely grateful I stumbled across this yoga studio, and got enough courage to come to the first class. Thank you Shine Power Yoga for such a life changing experience! My only complaint is the class isn't long enough and its not offered more than once per week in the evenings (after 6pm). But this has been an amazing way to start off the workweek! I am super stoked to be a part of her class!...

Sharing their love of the practice is felt. Their motivation to keep us going is heard. I can’t image going...
Read moreMonday evenings with Kathryn leave me feeling like a million bucks! As someone who always shied away from hot power vinyasa classes, it has felt so empowering to rebuild my own practice here with a teacher who encourages students to move at their own pace. I look forward to any opportunity I have to make it to class, whether it’s for the sweaty strong movements or the way she weaves in the true messages of a yoga practice....
