Reviews

Four Citysearchers and two Yelpers give Studio 1831 an average of five stars:

• I love studio 1831?s cozy, intimate atmosphere...She emphasized correct alignment and how to transition safely from one pose to another. The classes were typically small so there was a lot of individual attention and the people there were very friendly and welcoming. – majicmrk, Citysearcher
• Attending classes here is often the highlight of my week. I don't think I'd have gotten hooked if Valerie wasn't such an awesome instructor. – Stephanie N, Citysearcher
• I'm a little bit heavy - and I have found at Studio 1831 the two things that are most important to me are: I feel comfortable in the classes and the exercises are modified for my abilities. – jadams1971, Citysearcher
