I was already a big fan of Body Reflects; it’s a beautiful, naturally-lit yoga studio space with private body work rooms operated by a brilliant, energetic, and positive team of instructors. However, I’ve recently made the leap from casual drop-in to ultimate mega-fan. I’ve been lucky enough to practice yoga with Carlie and Mary for many moons, and I’ve received incredible, restorative massages from both of them whenever I book their service. Most recently, I had the chance to get a massage with a new practitioner, Abby, who certainly exceeded my expectations. I didn’t know that therapeutic bliss and delicate posturing adjustments could happen all at once, but the experience left me wanting more. I felt like my body was getting put back in order, and I was completely refreshed from the experience. You literally can’t go wrong with any body work from any of the Body Reflects therapists. I highly recommend them all and will certainly be back as soon as possible for more. Thank...
Read moreI started my yoga journey with 8 weeks intro class. I enjoyed it so much that I repeated the same class, just few weeks later after first course was over. Now I am a regular student - my go to classes are Yin with Christina (it’s super peaceful class, Christina’s calm voice is guiding you through each pose. It helps to sink into every move and allows to fully participate), Moving Meditation with Veronica (slightly faster than Yin. Veronica’s friendly attitude always makes me feel welcome and peaceful).
I’m sure all teachers are amazing - I just didn’t have a chance to visit their classes yet!
What I appreciate at Body Reflects: all are welcome - teachers always ask about any mobility limitations alternative poses are suggested in case you can’t / don’t want to go for the most challenging one warm welcome every time
I would like to see more early morning classes, but I understand it’s difficult to find few people willing to start at 7 am. Specially during the big...
Read moreI’ve taken a handful of yoga classes here and have loved them all. It’s a small studio, the last class I took there were only 3 students and I think the biggest class I’ve been to was 10, so there’s more opportunity for personalized instruction and hands on assistance (there are painted rocks to indicate if you want to be touched or not). The teachers speak in a normal voice (not the stereotypical yoga teacher cadence), classes feel nice and casual not intense and cliquey, and teachers offer plenty of modifications based on injuries or how your body is feeling that day. The studio isn’t cold but the classes I’ve taken haven’t been hot yoga, not sure if any of the classes are, which compliments the relaxed, casual vibe. The only slight downside is parking because it’s close to the Seattle Center, but there’s plenty of paid street parking right outside and if you walk a block or 2 you can find some free 2 hr spots as well.
Overall I love the studio and am excited to...
