The Body Electric Yoga Company, St. Petersburg FL

BE is a good studio and great teachers, but they always overbook their classes. I showed up 2 mins after the class started and went to walk in, and she said that the class was full and I couldn’t enter even though I had signed up. Just a disappointing experience when you take out take from your work day and get turned away from a yoga class that I did sign up for.

BE - please stop over booking your classes and appreciate people who have taken time to sign up and show up!

I spent my first month with BodyElectric. The yoga studio itself is very cozy and clean, in fact it is the most beautiful yoga studio I have ever seen. Different classes, LGBTQ+ friendly, and everyone there is also friendly. They have showers too! Prices are affordable. This is what I liked.

What I didn’t like: I took 4 different teachers and none of them actually taught, instead they lead the class. Teaching a yoga class is standing up in front of a group of people and talking them into and out of postures. Part of teaching is also noticing what your students are doing and helping them improve their postures. With the 4 teachers in BodyElectric no one helped students to correct their posture. They didn't even show how it should be done. It was more like "Simon Says".

I am not new to yoga and I know how to do poses, but still I make some mistakes and in yoga it is very important to do poses correctly. Someone who is new to yoga and doesn't know the names of the poses can get a little confused following the flow.

Another significant disadvantage is the number of people. There are a lot of people in a class, there is no place for some poses and someone constantly touches me or I touch someone.

For me it’s important to do the poses correctly, so I will be looking for a teacher, however the vibe and the studio itself is amazing.

Ashley is a wonderful guide through the challenging and purifying hot flows. She truly makes the experience beautiful with her soothing voice, articulate guidance and superb timing that allowed me to push a little more, take a little break, or just be. I just moved to St Pete, first time Body Electric, first time Ashley, absolutely will be back for more.

BE Athletic and Yoga are amazing. I'd been searching for an exercise outlet, but was dissapointed with local gyms and studios. Then I stumbled upon The BE, did the introductory program and very quickly realized this was unlike any gym/studio I had tried before. This is more than a gym or studio, it is an uncommonly warm and supportive community that will grow you physically and mindfully - if you are open to it. Excellent instructors, facilities and equipment. Thank you Katelyn and Jenny for creating such an amazing place. Many thanks to the great instructors and members for the great energy here. This is a source of health and positive energy! Give it a try, you will love it!

Beautiful studio with amazing instructors and staff! They also have a great variety of classes, I have been able to keep it up throughout my entire pregnancy with their guidance!

Have been to a variety of classes here. The vibe is upbeat, inclusive and supportive. All the instructors are focused on providing the experience you need that day. I particularly like the different sessions offered in the “hot” room. They always manage to have it be the perfect temperature for the class type.

The most welcoming and attentive team and the friendliest community I've ever been apart of

BE saved my life literally! I am now in the process of getting my certification and am hoping I can work 1 or 2 days even if it's just greeting guests and checking them in. Its been a dream to work there for years. Thank you Jenny, Katelyn and Rachel for what you do and have done not just for me but for all of us. Yeah parking isn't great but isnt it bad every where in St. Pete? Thank you again

I've been coming to The Body Electric since 2018. I recently took some time off for a surgery, and I'm back now, and they are just as friendly and welcoming as ever! I highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone. No matter what level of experience you have, you will feel at home, and they will help you along the way.

Great variety of teachers and classes, reasonably priced, very warm and welcome. Open and accommodating to all levels, all ages, races, body types, gender identites etc.

Went to Body Electric Yoga on a friends recommendation for yoga classes while I was in town for the holidays to visit family. Had a great hot yoga class taught by Kristina, facility was well designed, customer service was excellent. To top it off they were offering a free kettlebell class at their athletic location for the holidays. Decided to get up early on Xmas eve to take advantage of this opportunity. The class was awesome. A good workout with quality instruction and equipment. In addition was one of the best workout classes ever for me as it had components of mindfulness and body awareness (something I often find lacking from workout classes) To top it off the director of operations (Abby) gave me and my mother a tour of the place, gave us free guest pass cards to share her love for the place. Amended my payment option from the day previous as no one offered me their 21 day introductory deal. Would highly recommend this yoga studio and fitness studio to anyone. Hopefully I can even encourage my old man to go and take care of himself a little better.

I love this studio and all of the instructors. As a guy who was never big into stretching or mindfulness, the peeps at this studio have rocked my world. Ask for Abby Goodwin! She’s an exceptional teacher and will help you w anything you need. Love her and this place!

Be sure you will never have anything come up last minute or that you don't feel well last minute because canceling 90 minutes ahead of time with 30+ open spots in a class will incur a fee. Not to mention this studio packs people in like sardines but wants to claim they are taking covid precautions. Take your business elsewhere
Edit to review based on their response: Putting markers on the floor that are so close that when people properly follow them and are doing positions that require arms or legs extended beyond the mat ensures they touch the next persons mat isn't covid protocols. Your studio chose to move the markers closer. No one in government said you had to do that. My remarks were in no way related to mask mandates.

The instructors at Body Electric are top notch! The Foundations class helped me truly fall in love with yoga and get comfortable on my mat. As I have progressed in my practice, the Body Electric continues to offer plenty of variety and challenges. They are truly a gem of a local business in St. Pete and do so much to give back to the community as well.

My favorite yoga studio! Classes are wonderful. Staff is always friendly. I learned a lot more about yoga from attending these classes. I love the structure and challenge.
I always feel great afterwards and feel all the benefits physically and mentally. I am in the process of becoming a yoga teacher myself. Jessica Mihm is amazing!

This studio is exceptional. The team is extremely friendly and helpful, the classes are excellent and the space is serene. I am extremely impressed. Thank you!
