Yoga in Chicago

“Pole Icons is a great launching pad for beginner pole dancers. I had no previous experience with pole dancing before starting classes. The instructors create a safe and respectful space during every class. I've never felt uncomfortable in a class taken at Pole Icons.“

“Th studio offers a variety of classes and instructors. It’s always clean and the team is friendly!!“

“I love FreeMvmt Shop! Woman-owned and women-centered, it’s such an empowering and positive space, and the workout classes kick my butt in the best ways. I so appreciate 45-minute classes which psychologically feel so much more manageable than an hour! The Strength in Numbers class makes me longer despite strength training, and don’t sleep on the Figure 8 class lest you think a pilates/dance workout is any easier than lifting heavy weights! The teachers are welcoming, patient, and take the time to ensure you know what you’re doing; women of all ages and fitness levels attend and make the space accessible for everyone. Cannot recommend this neighborhood spot enough!“

“Haji Healing Salon is a place of peace and restoration in the heart of Bronzeville. I have received several services there like reiki, sound bath meditation, and accupuncture- they all have been great! Oh, and the tea blends are lovely.

Aya, the owner, is welcoming, kind, and knowledgeable about each of the products there and is willing to answer any questions. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite places to visit.“

“My time spent doing yoga with Lisa has been life changing! The moment I step into her class each week I feel a sense of calmness and reflect on many life issues. Her messages each week are inspirational and touch my heart deeply. When I leave her class, I feel strong physically and mentally…ready to conquer the world! If you are looking for the most phenomenal yoga experience, look no further! Lisa is the absolute best!!“

“Rock Solid is a great neighborhood gym that works for anyone. I really needed to get back into working out with some guidance. After my first workout I knew it was the place for me. The trainers are supportive and make sure I’m doing things correctly. They are personable and care about my progress. There’s no judgement and I don’t feel lost in a crowd because the classes are small. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to improve their fitness at any level in a friendly community environment.“

“Love this gym! I have a lot of different equipment to choose from, it’s clean, and everyone is professional! It’s never crowded either! Would highly recommend ?“

“Love this studio and all the reformer pilates classes. I've been a member for years. The instructors are fantastic. Classes are challenging and effective. The staff here are always asking for feedback to ensure customers have a great experience. Highly recommend!“

“Can't say enough about this incredible gym. Starting with the owner, Antonio, and to all of the instructors, they are all amazing and are there to help meet you where you're at in your fitness journey and help get you where you want to be. Every piece of equipment you could ask for and a welcoming space. The plant life brings an extra level of energy every time you walk in the door! Can't recommend this gym enough!“

“Love this class pink was amazing dancer and I can’t wait to return for more. These ladies have made me fall in love with the art of pole! Never knew I could do some of these moves but I was able to so fun“

“Club Pilates is such a warm and welcoming environment! The instructors are knowledgeable, encouraging, and always take the time to provide individual guidance and corrections to make sure you're getting the most out of each class. I never feel like just another participant, they genuinely care about helping everyone improve and feel successful. The studio has a great community atmosphere, and I always look forward to coming to class. Highly recommend!“

“I have been a YogaSix Southport member since the day the studio opened. The classes and teachers are part of my regular routine and feel like part of the Southport community - thank you!“

“I have always had an amazing experience at Verde, where I have received services for well over a decade. Today l did a 90 minute massage with Davida, and it was one of the most transformative bodywork sessions that I have ever had. On top of the normal areas, she did an abdominal massage and rib release, at which point I immediately felt the effects throughout my body. She released not only an immense about of pain, but also emotional blocks that had been figuratively weighing me down. I can't say enough positive things about her and Verde as a whole.“

“Wonderful studio with great teachers, class varieties and a calming atmosphere. best part of class has to be the lavender towel at the end!!! the mild classes have harder peak poses than I would expect, but there is no judgement if you are unable to get into the pose“

“Yoga Body Elements and Frequency Wellness Chicago introduced me to the BioCharger—and this one stays with you.

You sit, you breathe… and something quietly shifts. It’s subtle, but unmistakable. I walked out feeling clear, grounded, and recalibrated—like my body found its rhythm again.

I highly recommend the experience—and Cindy, the practitioner, is exceptional. Her presence, her precision, the way she holds the space… it makes all the difference!

Definitely coming back.“

“I had walked past this gym so many times and been curious to actually stop by and check it out. I could not have been more pleasantly surprised when I went inside and saw the facilities and met coach B. We talked through the program and I signed up for a free trial session the following week. The free session was great and I’ve been going to the gym three times a week ever since.

I’ve worked with a lot of personal trainers one on one and working with B in a group but with a personalized program could not be better. You get the energy of the group, make friends and have coach B working with you to achieve your goals.

Very highly recommended.“

“This is an “all welcome studio” . The instructors are both male and female and range in age and experience . Its inviting and soothing at the same time“

“All of the classes and instructors are amazing but ultimately got the membership because of Kayla’s classes! They are always encouraging, provide inventive themes for class, and overall positive vibes. The tuesday night soundbowl class is the highlight of my week!“

“Studio three has been an amazing experience so far. As someone who just moved to Chicago, it is hard to find community. While I have only attended 5 classes, the people at the studio have made me feel so welcomed. By my second class, Isabel and Brooke at the front desk knew me by name when I walked in and are the reason I have come back. Little details like this make such a big difference, especially at 5:45 AM before working out. I am excited to continue coming to studio three for their classes!“

“Such a great studio! The instructors are encouraging, the classes are challenging in the best way, & the atmosphere is always very welcoming! I leave every class feeling stronger & empowered ?“

“I wanted to explore a new hobby, and the instructors make me feel comfortable doing so. Slow flow is my favorite class and the prices are amazing,“

“I started getting massages with Jess a few months ago and I wish I could give her 1,000 stars. Her knowledge and attention to detail on your body is what stands out to me the most. It’s not JUST a massage, it’s like magic to the muscles that need it. You leave feeling a release of tension where you desperately needed it. She is kind, her voice is soothing, she puts just the right amount of pressure where she knows you need it. I’m really happy I was introduced to her and she has become a staple in my monthly routine of self care. Thank you, Jess!“

“I hope to get back when I find my way without a mobile device. The ladies Were nice yet I don't know how to stand an hour long class. I did my best and wasn't judged. thanks for having me“
