Student Testimonials

Maka made me a better person after attending her wonderful class. I love the Yoga sculpt class and the amount of value it brings to my life.

Sandra Walter was very friendly and welcoming. She even checked up on me on my first class. I also like the all around vibe of the place! Super excited to continue on my yoga journey there!

It was my first time doing yoga at the free vicoria-ward yoga class. Really enjoyed it. Too bad the ground was hard uneven stone. Good thing my yoga mat is think. Instructor really great! Loved it!

The teachers and front desk staff were so helpful and friendly. Everyone made me feel comfortable. The classes were awesome and challenging!

I really enjoy all the sessions so far. My body feels great and I am able to move better. The warmth helps with the flow and movement and I am getting hooked!

Leah was very energetic and awesome motivator!

Just breezing through town for a few weeks and wanted to drop in for a class – and had a great experience! Dawn is an excellent teacher! Thank you!!

The Ward studio is amazing. I am a member of the Fair Oaks California studio! I am visiting my daughter who resides 2 blocks from the Ward studio. It is so great to get a yoga practice in while traveling.

Theresa is an amazing Instructor! She was so welcoming from the moment we entered to saying goodbye! Her class was high energy, full of great cues, inspiring and loved the music. Can’t wait to come back! Thank you Theresa!!

Amazing CSX class with Cleo! He was so great at guiding my experience to do more with keeping my options open to level up or down in my practice. I really appreciated his safety cues and attention to form.

It is very difficult to get a hold of someone over the phone. It would be able to call and speak to someone. Having someone available gives a pleasant consumer experience and may also help with those who have membership questions. additionally, I left a bag in class and was unable to reach someone over the phone. :(

I can walk there from work (2 blocks!) and there are so many classes to choose from, I can always find one to squeeze into my schedule!

Everyone was so friendly and it was a great atmosphere and also very clean which definitely helps the overall experience

Lots of class times and grt instructors

There are a lot of classes offered and enough room to practice without being super close to the person next to you.

I like that the Ward location has two studios so they have a greater offering of classes on Oahu compared to other studios.

I absolutely LOVE taking Dawn's classes specifically at Ward. As a 15+ year yogi myself, I appreciate her detailed queues and awareness of postural alignment. I love how she focuses on one specific peak posture and/or bodypart per month which gives an area of focus for her students with an extensive variety of areas to learn/improve/grow. Beautiful timing, awareness of reading the room, and well spoken queues. We need more teachers like this on Oahu!

On the other hand, I do not like Christy K's classes at all. Throwing in standasana in Sun A is way too intense to be incorporated that early in the sequence before the body is properly warmed up. Her queues often include too many words/adjectives that makes it hard for students to follow her direction without looking around. Her timing is also not beneficial. Spending 10 breaths in standasana and 2 in thread the needle when the peak posture requires shoulder mobility makes absolutely no sense. Despite so much time on hip openers (such as standasana), the peak posture of the day was forearm stand???? Luckily, I'm a seasoned yoga practitioner but any newbies would likely get hurt when the instructor sequences a flow too aggressively and with indirect, fastly spoken queues. For all of the above reasons, I will never take Christy K's class again. I have a hip replacement so joint integrity is paramount and unfortunately her class is a recipe for injury in my opinion. She is the opposite of Dawn in her teaching approach. Especially when it comes to reading the room and realizing that nearly all of us were struggling to keep up and were in no way ready to be in forearm stand. It was obviously Christy K was committed to sticking to HER sequence, not what the class actually needed. Disappointing.

The teachers. I schedule my day so I can spend an hour with authentic people that re-energize me. I greatly appreciate their dedication to the practice and always feel welcomed at check in by everyone. I have been taking Suzanne's class since 2016 and deeply grateful for her commitment and guidance over the years.

Love theresas class! Thats actually the only few instructor i stick to. It is pricy though so i know not everyone can afford it.

Aloha 10 all the way for the awesome CPY Ward instructors who genuinely make me feel connected to our community moving, flowing, and challenging ourselves in healthy ways feeling beautiful and happy.

Excellent instructions, beautiful and clean facilities, attention to detail by management in a wonderful experience.

I love the positive energy and the great instructors that guide you no matter the level that you are in.

The class was intense but fun. Music was great.

The only thing that I would comment on is that the change rooms in my studio need to be redesigned and redone.
