body kneads yoga, Cranston

During her frequent travels, owner Lisa Golde has trained under some of yoga’s modern pioneers, including Ana Forrest, Bryan Kest, and Dharma Mittra. But no matter where her globetrotting lifestyle takes her, Lisa always returns to share what she has learned at her home studio, which consists of the sunlit Rasa Room and Shanti Room. Lisa and her team of talented instructors adapt yoga flows to meet skill levels while still challenging practitioners to open their bodies, minds, and belly buttons' secret portal to a different dimension.

Yoga classes teach traditional styles, such as Forrest yoga, and integrative flow, as well as upbeat, experimental classes like Nia. The fast-paced style of expressive dance blends yoga, modern jazz, and a type of martial arts to get hearts pumping faster than swimming in a pool of pudding. After class, guests can grab a snack in the boutique or rinse off in onsite showers.
