Hi, I'm Mike.
I started getting serious about yoga six years ago. For years in my late 20’s and 30’s I experienced periodic back pain. As I poured most of my energy into my family and career (I’m a teacher at Eastern High School – go Quakers!), I watched my health make the slow creep downhill.
The ELHY Experience.
Before
Do try to arrive at least 15 minutes early, then check in at the desk either verbally or on the iPad. If you need rent a mat and/or towel or buy a water if you forgot yours, we can take care of you at the desk. Mats and yoga towels are each $2 to rent or $3 for the combo. From there, put your stuff in a cubbie, and if you need to change or use the bathroom, you can head to the back where there are two changing rooms, two bathrooms, and more cubbies. Don't forget to grab a complimentary washcloth outside the studio door to wipe your sweaty brow during class, then head into the hot room to find your new favorite spot on the floor! It's that easy and stress free, we promise!
After
If you rented a mat, please use the mat spray provided in the studio room and return it to the desk. Drop your rental towel and washcloth in the laundry bin, then feel free to relax on one of our benches and decompress, chill, laugh, breathe, and savor everything you just did!
