Movements Yoga

Used to be happy about this studio, but lately I noticed the quality going down and I am not satisfied at all with the flexibility offered to extend the expiration day of my subscription ( I had a knee surgery, I was not asking to postpone for silly reasons). Furthermore, I think the place is unfriendly. Teachers are not interested in exchanging 2 words with their students ( of course I do not mean IN the studio, but you know.. when you get out of the room iit is nice to have also a human contact ) , the changing room is a hell. 30 women trying to get dressed at the same time, the lockers are broken, no enough room to dress. definetely looking for a new studio

I booked a yoga trial class 2 days in advance. Upon arrival at 7 am the door was closed. It rained and it was cold. No one answered the door. Another gentlemen arrived and was also surprised the door was closed— he did mention that he didn’t come for the yoga class but had an appointment. Perhaps this is a very exclusive studio, but it was clearly stated open from 7am on Google. I was obliged to return home. I also paid for the trial class, which I didn’t end up trying. Neither was I contacted afterwards or refunded the payment. In all pretty terrible experience !

I see there are a few reviews of the receptionist being rude. Unfortunately that was my experience at the 20:30 yin class. It was my trial class and Anna was very rude at the reception because I didn’t know how their app works and I only purchased a credit instead of signing up for the class. (Which then took me less than 1min to sign up) No explanation of the studio or anything. The studio is not bad.

Sadly the management of this school have shattered what was once a blissful yoga center/community temple for practice. Unfortunately despite having some of the best teachers in town, they've turned this studio into a commercial pilates fitness center and it has lost almost all integrity of what yoga is. If you are someone who already practices yoga or values it's core principles, go elsewhere. Movements is really disappointing nowadays. Most of the regulars have already left due to changes over the last 2 years. It started out with the massive reduction of 90 minute classes founded on the traditional hatha sequence and things went progressively down hill from there: Students in the classrooms are talking before during and after the classes which is disrespectful and irritating, many of the classtimes have been cut in exchange for pilates, and sequence changes made by management - not for the better; multiple times. Daily classes here used to be the highlight of everyday with many familiar faces of dedicated yogis doing their daily practice in peace and contentment. It's a money driven center now. Also stopped my membership. many other schools nearby here in the city offering great classes. Try those 🙌🪷
