I started with Dragonfly in the fall of 2012 with one of the “10 class slash” passes. As time went on, I was attending more and more classes – so I finally signed up as a member and haven’t looked back! Previously, I had done some yoga videos, but it was never a consistent part of my life.
I love the variety of classes offered at Dragonfly, and the instructors are amazing and full of positive energy! Everyone is friendly and it feels like home. Now that I have incorporated hot yoga as a part of my life, I will never go back to non-heated/room temperature yoga.
I am more focused and balanced all around. I can function daily with a lot less sleep, and the musculoskeletal pain that I experienced for years has nearly disappeared. In addition, I am more at peace with myself and have much more patience with my children.
I attend classes almost daily (5-7 times per week). I love Suki Warda’s 5:30 a.m. Flow class. I have never been a morning person, but Suki makes me want to get out of bed before the sun even comes up! She’s humble yet so strong, and such a skilled yoga instructor. I am also hooked on Kim Guenther’s Power Up and Yoga Up classes…she brings amazing energy and a positive environment to very challenging classes.
Years ago, I was one of those people who had the misconception that practicing yoga was not a “true” work out. I completed two Wisconsin Ironman competitions (in 2003 & 2004), and never felt as fit as I do today. In fact, being a triathlete for those years is probably a contributing factor to the aches and pains that led me to yoga.
Although my life is busy as a mom with two children and a full-time career as a Sales Manager for an IT consulting company, Dragonfly offers a diversity of classes that fit into my lifestyle. It’s everything I need (all in one place) to maintain overall fitness, health, and nourishment of the mind, body and spirit.
