Where is the Best Workout in Raleigh, North Carolina?
I have been going to this salon since they opened the doors, I get my color, pedicures, facials and eyebrow waxes there. I was told last week about the citysearch voting taking place. If your reading this post i want you to know this salon is AMAZING. There is so much attention to detail! The skills, decor and just the way they make you feel when you walk in the door is fabulous. They always make me my favorite- green tea with fresh mint and honey. Everyone always greets me and makes me feel so special- i have been to some salons and the other stylists never even smile. I dont know how they do it but they are always cheerful! I love this place! Thank you all for being so wonderful.Lori B.Pros + They have Bumble & Bumble hair productsCons – none
I started pilates about 6 months ago at Harmony Pilates. I was nervous because I had never done pilates before. I was pleasantly surprised by how welcoming and motivating the instructors were. The thing I have been most impressed with is their attitude! The classes are small, so every class is almost like a private session! It is an open and fun atmosphere at Harmony! In the past 4 months, I have had to have minor surgery to get an ovarian cyst removed and have also lost my my job. A very stressful time for me…..I can honestly say that Harmony Pilates has helped me through this time. My outlook on my health and well being have improved so much in the past 2 months. The classes help with my stress level and Susan helps to keep me inspired and motivated! If you are looking to start pilates or are not getting the individual attention you need at your current class, I highly recommend Harmony Pilates!Pros + Instructors, atmosphere, attitudeCons – None
I joined Snap Fitness after a LONG absence from the gym. I was hesitant at first because I wasn’t familiar with the equipment at all and was worried I’d be the only person there who was totally lost. The staff and trainers are really nice, though, and showed me (sometimes twice) how everything worked. I really like Snap because I’m able to go after the kids are in bed…otherwise I would never get a chance to work out (or tan!). It’s really clean and the equipment is all new and state of the art. I would definitely recommend them.Pros + Always open, cool staff, clean, nice machines, tanning bedCons – …
Chris and Leslye accomplish the near-impossible: making exercise and physical training enjoyable. They are both extremely professional, yet friendly; they take a keen interest in both the physical and nutritional aspects of health. The gym is stocked with top of the line equipment, and the trainers use both the equipment and bands/balls/rollers/etc. to maximize each workout. The gym is very clean…doesn’t smell gym-y even though it is in use by both adults and students pretty much all day. I highly recommend Chris and Leslye and their team of professionals to anyone who is interested in toning up, trimming down and becoming more fit…whether for sports training (in my case) or for general good health.Pros + professionalism, friendliness, knowledge of training/nutritiCons – none
The “blue” is a place that has made my move to Raleigh a true transformation in my life. The instructors care about each student in class. It is obvious that each teacher puts a great deal of thought into their class and music . There is a tremendous diversity in classes for the beginner to the life long experienced yogi. I like the balance of a challenging class, to a stretch and flow class. We need balance in our lives and the instructors recognize this with the variety of classes and workshops offered to the community. I also find that the students are very welcoming to those who practice often to the newcomers. I could not balance my life without my classes at bluelotus. Thank you Jill and instructors for your caring, hands on approach and teaching me to give myself permission to do what my body and mind feels once I get to my mat. You are a “blessing” to all of us!
