I feel muscles working I didn't know I had...

Aloft Yoga Studio
Yoga studio
👍👍 Today was my 1st aerial yoga experience ever and OMG I had a blast! Melody the owner made me feel so comfortable and capable. She is kind and funny and I laughed so much in class. I had no idea it would be so fun and not as serious. I'll definitely be back. The studio was easy to find and plenty of...

Lyerly Personal Training Columbia SC

👍👍 I really wanted to get in shape for my upcoming wedding but I just wasn’t a gym person. My sister started training with TJ a few months ago and recommended I should give it a try. I’m in my 3rd month with TJ now and I never thought I’d enjoy working out but I really do! He really motivates you to wo...

Yoga studio
👍👍 I've been to several Yoga studios in the Columbia area. So far AMSA is the only studio that has made me feel welcome. No fancy fountains, no cliques or pushy instructors. Studio is clean, organized and has ample props. They have had several guest instructors and musicians, all of which were interest...
