I am on my third class with Embody Yoga & Wellness and cannot say enough wonderful things about it or the instructors! I started back in 2019 and was hooked! It has such a welcoming and comforting aura and the instructors are so talented and make you feel so welcome. They are so experienced and truly help you expand your yoga practice. There is honestly something for everyone. I missed a couple of opportunities to attend classes and felt as though something was missing. I am so thankful to be back! They even offer online yoga classes due to physical distancing given the current pandemic for those
