en-er-gy Fitness Studio

Excellent staff, delightful owner and am amazing dance floor! What more could you ask for? I love the Body Deja Vu classes and I thoroughly enjoy teaching Ballroom, Latin and Swing dance there on Thursday nights!

Sawheet! I am enjoying the swing dance lessons there on Tuesday nights! This studio is in an awesome location, tucked in an alley at the square in Sonoma. The floors are perfect for dancing and the windows let passers by check it out. There are free-​weights and exercise balls along the walls there. I would assume they have many different types of classes up in dis bizz.

Lesley Murphy is the best. I love her yoga movement class. Unfortunately I moved away and can’t participate any longer. I miss her class and have not found a replacement class so far. She is super nice and really smoothes you through the movements.

Ok, so this might sound a wee dramatic, but seriously… there are 2 classes at Energy that have totally improved my life, health and attitude.
Psychedelic Stretch
Body Deja Vu
I love the studio’s vibe, schedule, instructors and exercise mates and I’m having a blast with it all!
I know it’s scary to walk into something that you know nothing about and don’t know any faces, but it’s so worth it to push yourself. You can do it!

My neck was kinked and sore. I new I needed some how to stretch it out. I heard about the Psychedelic Stretch class from a family member and thought, «Well, now’s as good a time as any I guess.»
So I left the baby at home with daddy (scary, I know) then popped on over and… «Ooooooweeeeee!» By the time the class was over (I believe it’s an hour and a half) my neck was cured and my rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, and vastus medialis (thigh muscles) were burning like never before! It was wonderful! I want to return to this class, but have not had the opportunity because of conflicting schedules, but just as soon as I can I will be a regular I know it! Soon my friends, soon! Susan (the instructor) is super awesome. She sings to you, and as an added bonus, gives you a little facial massage and a blanky at the end of the class. It’s soooo soothing and just what you are wishing you had, and poof! It’s as if your wish was granted. Highly recommend. Men are welcome too!

More than 12 hours later and I am STILL thinking about my first class at en-​er-​gy fitness studio. I just have to spread the word about this place.
I’m no Yogi. I like yoga and I’ve taken classes about a dozen or so times at various places. I’m more of a cardio dance kind of girl. I’ve taken Jazzercise for about 12 years.
But the psychedelic stretch class at en-​er-​gy takes all the best parts of cardio dance, yoga and Pilates and combines them to create the most enjoyable and effective exercise. There was a variety of people in the class I attended from teenagers to grandmothers, and everyone looked happy to be there.
It was my personal best workout: I left feeling centered *and* exhilarated. I sweated without doing one high-​impact move. The music was GOOD, not new age waterfall sounds and ocean waves. The people were welcoming and friendly. I woke up pleasantly sore this morning.
The center is cozy but plenty big enough for about 10 to 15 students. There are mats and other equipment available for use. The sound system is good quality. There’s a changing room. They are opening up a small workout clothing boutique inside soon.
The classes are on par with other fitness and yoga centers — about $ 10 each if you buy a card, which I will definitely be doing.
The instructor for my class, Sue, was informative, positive, encouraging. Her good energy is an excellent asset to the center.
