Sumits Yoga

I've practiced yoga on my own for years, but was always intimidated by the thought of taking a class. I was lucky enough to be gifted a free class at Sumit's, and I fell in love with it! Like other reviewers have said, classes at Sumit's are yoga with friends! I was really grateful to Taryn at the front desk telling me what to expect when I arrived for my first class. The heat and humidity really seem to make a difference--I expected to be sore after the first class, and to my delight and surprise, I was not! I ended up getting the year unlimited, because I love it so much!

I live in DTC and frequent the other studio multiple times a week. Today was my first time back at the Littleton studio in a couple of years. If good people are your vibe, this place is a must. Leah, specifically made my week after a long and difficult one. Beautiful instruction and a clear, passion for the practice. I travel a decent amount for work and always bring my mat in search of studios out of state. So far, I cannot find one that compares. Whether you are new to Yoga or a seasoned Yogi, you are welcome here.

I was staying at my friends' house in Highlands Ranch and found Summits Yoga Littleton after Googling nearby studios. Signing up was easy peasy. I'm an avid Mind Body app user, so I was able to register for a drop-in class for Saturday at 9:30am with Jen. I felt really welcomed in the lovely studio. Jen helped get my friend and I setup for the class. She proactively set up mats with towels by the door and explained expectations for the class. Based on the class description, I thought the class was going to be a regular vinyasa class. Jen explained that the class was like a hot yoga/vinyasa fusion, which I enjoyed a lot. When I first started my yoga practice, I was doing a lot of Bikram so I totally saw the elements of Bikram interweaved in the flow. I liked the vinyasa flow elements as well, which is my own personal preference these days. I got a great sweat and walked out feeling cleansed and grounded.

I came here for a Yelp event on Tuesday. I met April, the owner and she is quite energetic and fun. The space is large and super modern.Before starting, April stated that Sumits is a hot studio, but just for the Yelp event, she kept the door open. I got a really good workout and sweated a lot, so I was glad that she kept the door open. April played some fun music during yoga, which wasn't exactly my cup of tea, but it wasn't terrible either. One thing I didn't like was that the music was on so loud that April had to yell the moves and it was difficult to understand and hear her at times. One thing I do especially like is that April refers to us as "my angels," which is pretty awesome.I also wasn't a fan of people wearing their shoes into the studio. One thing is that fellow Yelpers may not be aware of the unspoken rule about wearing dirty outside shoes into a yoga studio, but I think that Sumits should have informed people that shoes needed to stay outside.

I took a free public outdoor yoga class in Sunken Gardens Park in Denver, so I have never been to their actual studio location. That being said, the Sumits Yoga team, led by April, taught the class and I wanted to recognize how positive the experience was. Though at first the almost overwhelming positivity of the instructor seemed laughable, when I realized halfway through class that 1.) we were already halfway to the end and 2.) I'd been smiling and laughing the entire time, I suddenly became aware of what an amazing class it was. We flowed through poses at the perfect rate and April placed emphasis on meeting your body where it was. For example, if you couldn't tough your head to your legs, simply bend your legs to meet your head! Her ability to make everyone feel like they were getting the most out of their yoga practice was awesome.

Discount for first responders is key! Great place to start the day. All the instructors have been really cool and helpful for me. I am not a yogi but I go once a week and it amazes me how they have my name down.

I know, love is a strong word but I'll use it with this studio and it's instructors. I've been coming here for almost 5 yrs and never do I feel disappointed walking out of a class. It's hot & humid but happy & empowering. I drive 20-30 min just to go here! It's worth some of the traffic too ;) everyone from the owner (April) to her staff and managers are welcoming, kind, and def have a good choice of tunes for the flow! You won't regret trying out their 2 week for $20 pass!

Went today not knowing anything about hit yoga. My experience as a beginner to yoga was AMAZING! How happy and glad I did go in! The teacher was so kind, graceful and she kept the class on a spiritual and physical journey! I loved the heat it was not too hot at all for me! I actually felt great with the heat it felt and was like a true workout for me. The music during the class is Awesome! I Will be back... as soon as I get back in town next week! I HIGHLY recommend this yoga studio!

I am totally new to hot yoga and am so happy my neighbor introduced it to me. They had a $20 for 2 weeks of unlimited classes newcomers special. I was a bit hesitant since I didn't even know if I would want to go to another class after my first one, but decided to go ahead and do it. I am so glad that I did!April and Kim are the co-owners and they are both so kind and very cool. My first couple of classes were with Kim. So lucky--she is great. Aimee is awesome and uplifting! Melissa is wonderful too--love her cool wash cloths at the end of class. Really enjoyed April's class--positive energy and nurturing. All the teachers are sooo fabulous!!!The studio is very clean and definitely spa like dressing rooms. They have everything you may need if you end taking a shower there--hairdryer, ear swabs, deodorant, etc.What a true gem of a place. Though I am new to yoga, I have gone to two different hot yoga places while on travel and this one is by far the best!

Wow! Everyone at Sumits is SO kind and wonderful--I tried hot yoga here several years ago and hated it...everyone went so fast, I didn't know what was going on, and I felt so lost. I simply gave up.What a difference an Alignment Class and getting to know the Instructors makes!One day I forgot to take out my contacts and didn't bring any saline solution to soak them in. The owner of the studio, April, ran over to Safeway and grabbed me a bottle. Wow!I can't say enough good things about all of the teachers; Amy showed me how to use a block one-one-one, Heather gave me foot towels, the list goes on and on.You have to try it. They always have great deals, fun Challenges, and are willing to help you.
