“I had my 41st bday event at the studio and had the best time! Heather created a custom experience for our group and it may just go down as my favorite birthday yet. Many of the ladies now have plans to return and bring other friends! Yay! Spreading the love for a beautiful experience. Thank you, Heather for making my day so special.“

“I went to vital yoga for three months during my travel healthcare contract. I enjoyed each class I went to. Each instructor has a different personality however all rooted in the practice of yoga. All of them approach the class with openness and kindness towards the participants. This membership is worth your time! As a "beginner" yogi, I found the classes extremely welcoming and doable.“

“The yoga retreat on Orcas Island was the best retreat I've ever been to and I would highly recommend it to anyone! Susan is an amazing instructor that teaches in such a way that I really connected with my body, mind and spirit! I felt completely relaxed with the lovely group of people and took away some great tools that I incorporated into my practice. Thank you Susan for a wonderful experience!“

“I absolutely love this studio. The studio has become an incredibly safe place for me to feel my feelings and be able to process through the emotional toll that my job can take on me for the past year or so. I have felt so welcome and so completely accepted in this space. Tawni and all of the other teachers do such a great job of creating an environment that feels safe and that encourages us to be kind to ourselves and meet ourselves where we are on that day in that moment. They’ve always helped me with accommodations for my body, and they’re really good about offering multiple solutions that are more restorative or more challenging, depending on what you feel. I love that we start classes with arriving, breathing, and getting into it with, well, intention. It really sets a clear container for beginning and ending of class when we all start together. The community is amazing and such a cool collective of humans. I know sometimes hot yoga can be intimidating, but I really highly recommend giving Intent a try.“

“Before 2020 I was active in fitness but I had only dabbled in mace and heavy clubs. During the shutdown I decided to dive deeper with lever tools. I found a few club and mace coaches and programs online before I discovered Coach Summer Huntington on Youtube. It was quickly obvious that she had very few peers when it came to the use of these unique modalities. But what really set her apart was her unique vision of merging ancient lever tools with two other disciplines. She merged arguably the oldest tools known to humans with the ancient art of yoga and the modern science of kinesiology. When I later discovered that she had a Master’s Degree in Kinesiology I wasn’t at all surprised. Summer knows her stuff! Two years later, Summer announced she was hosting a weekend retreat on Clubs, Mace and Staff at Flow Shala with another coach whose material I had immersed myself in throughout the pandemic, Mark Wildman. I signed up on the spot! The weekend was an incredible experience! The two coaches complimented each other so well! Both were beyond excellent in every way possible: pedagogy, explanation, diagnosing issues and coaching corrections, the list goes on and on. I learned so much that weekend, but Summer’s Steel Mace Vinyasa sessions challenged me like I’d never been challenged before. I leveled up in all three modalities without question, and I came home with a passion to continue growing in clubs and staff that is still with me to this day. But I had an even greater drive to pursue steel mace vinyasa. I quickly signed up for a five day retreat with Coaches Summer and Mark in Thailand. I wanted to make the most out of the opportunity and had six months to prepare for the event. I started working online with an incredible Flow Shala coach on a weekly basis. By the time I found myself swinging a mace in Warrior 2 pose surrounded by the Buddhist temples that lined the mountains around our workout platform in Thailand, I had leveled up again. But Summer challenged me in a way I’d never been challenged before. She encouraged as she pushed me to an even higher level. A perfect example, in the midst of one session she invited the group into a headstand. I followed her instructions and found myself upside down! After the session she rushed over to me with a huge smile and was genuinely excited to find out if that was my first headstand. In that moment I realized how genuinely invested this coach was in the development of her students. After Thailand, I joined Flow Shala and continued working with Summer and the other coaches online. It was such a gift to get coaching on Steel Mace Vinyasa at home! I also recently attended a 16 hour SMV online course. When I signed up for the course I thought we’d hone on form and maybe learn some new moves. That happened, but unbeknownst to me, the weekend was really an opportunity to peer behind the curtain and glimpse not only the depth of Summer’s pedagogy but it gave me a clear vision of the genius and breadth of a master and true artist in her chosen field. When Coach Summer recently announced she was going to coach one on one sessions, I signed up right away! Summer is not only a coach of coaches, she is a fitness pioneer gifting us with a glimpse of what the next level of health and wellness looks like with Steel Mace Vinyasa. She not only diagnosed several unhealthy movement patterns I’ve developed over a lifetime, she has prescribed a holistic weekly wellness plan designed to teach me proper movement and heal my body. I can’t speak highly enough of Coach Summer. I’ve been blessed to work with several world class “best of the best” leaders in other disciplines. Summer is definitely at that level in her field. It has been an honor and a blessing to work with her. She has taken me to a new level of fitness and wellness and I know she can do the same for you, regardless of your level or previous experience.

“I love this studio. My favorite part is walking into the cool old building right next to the ocean, smelling the sea to remind me how lucky we are to live in such a cool place. The studio is clean, organized, and staffed with the kindest people and always the perfect temperature. There is a wide variety of classes and teachers. I have hip issues and my husband is 35 and loves a good workout, so I appreciate that there is a place for every kind of yoga practitioner here. I love classes with Clair because she has such a deep understanding of the body.“
