How did you get started at Dfly?
My cousins have been members at Dragonfly for years and have always talked about how amazing it is. When I moved to Madison, I knew I wanted to join! They went with me to my first class, Flow 60 with Colleen!
What was your yoga/barre experience before Dfly?
I had done yoga on and off for a few years before joining Dragonfly, but it was not a part of my regular routine. I had never tried barre or any other type of group fitness class before!
What do you enjoy most from attending Dfly classes?
This is a great question, and to be honest, it is hard to pick just one favorite thing! I absolutely love the rush of endorphins you get the moment class is over. It’s what keeps me coming back to the studio! I always leave my mat feeling so much better than when I arrived. I love the heated room, and I also always look forward to the custom playlists each instructor puts together. The music makes working out so much more fun!
Have you experienced any changes in your total well-being since taking classes?
Absolutely! I have experienced incredible physical and mental changes since joining Dragonfly. As an elementary school teacher, stepping onto the mat after a chaotic day is my absolute favorite way to unwind and relieve stress. On the physical side, I hadn’t picked up a weight in years before joining. After dealing with chronic pain a few years ago, finding this mix of classes has been a total game-changer for my health. I feel so much stronger, balanced, and healthier overall.
How often do you attend classes? Favorite class?
My goal is always to come 3-4 times a week. I have tried a wide variety of Dragonfly classes, but my favorites are Flow and Lift and Yoga Up. I love the classes that combine flows with weights! Shout-out to Kelsey S. and Meredith, their classes continue to be my favorite ones to take!
Please feel free to share any other thoughts you have about Dfly, hot yoga, or your life as we would love to know more about you.
I often tell people that joining Dragonfly was one of the best decisions I have made in a while! I feel so lucky to be a part of a yoga studio that is so welcoming, inclusive, and fun! Being a part of the Dragonfly community is truly one of my favorite things about living in Madison. :)
